The series will start filming in Australia next year, after the production company Fremantle signed a deal with Amazon Freeveew, reports The Guardian.
As well as creating a new series of the soap, Amazon have announced that they will be hosting the show’s back catalogue, giving viewers access to 37 years’ worth of classic episodes.

A bit of a shame that the show ended, and that some other channel didn't pick it up.
And that the end came.
But I al sorta glad that there is going to be something.
Will be watching

112 days since it ended!
Apparently Amazon Freeview became interested in the show when executives saw the outpouring of love on social media after it was cancelled, and started negotiations with Fremantle, the production company, to revive it. So far, it has been confirmed that Stefan Dennis (Paul Robinson), Alan Fletcher (Karl Kennedy), Ryan Moloney (Toadie Rebecchi) and Jackie Woodburne (Susan Kennedy) will all return to the new version, but for now that’s all.

Hopefully the show will be good.

Only started watching it again because it was ending, but I quite liked what I saw.
Hope they get Joe Klocek back as Jane’s prozzy son.

Interesting that this, for now, is to be hosted on their Advertising supported Freevee product and not Prime.

Indeed, I think this is the start of the big push for Freevee.
Maybe more cancelled shows will appear on there.
Eldorado ?!

Yeah, they’ve done that a few times over the years. I think one of their very first ‘Originals’ was the fourth season of Arrested Development, back when they were just starting to produce their own stuff.

It's nice that Amazon is picking up Neighbours, but I wish that it was done a bit sooner

This news really cheered me up today. As much as some storylines annoyed me, I've watched it on and off (mainly on) since early 1987, and abit of comfortable familiarity about now is welcome.

As an American who never had a chance to see any non-American soap operas, I love the fact that it will be on Freevee. I just hope all 37 years are on there as well and not kept just for Prime members.
