Good question, I can't help you myself but I'm also interested in the answer
I know that I'll be too busy surfing, bbq'ing and sitting on the deck watching the sunsets once we get to Brissy , but I'm sure that I'll be able to manage to spare half an hour for a regular fix of Corrie.

Coronation Street, Casuatly and Holby aren't on normal TV as far as I know - get someone to give you the link to the pay TV over here and you can check it out...think it is Foxtel (don't have it myself).
But I will admit I keep uptodate with a weekly fix of reading the decent websites about, some with all the episodes including picture - amazed my sister in law in April by being further ahead than she was and telling her what she was missing while here in Sydney!

Any of you (new) ozzies out there miss Eastenders, don't worry because it is now crap in fact I have now renamed it Miseryenders. Viewers have dropped because story lines are so crap!

Re: TV Shows
All Saints is a much more "juicy" Aussie version of Casualty!!!! None of those programmes are on terrestrial TV I'm afraid, not sure about Foxtel, but they would be a long way behind.

When you have been here a month or two, you will forget what you used to watch in the UK, and will start to follow the Aussie stuff.........there are some decent progs on over here.

UKTV is brilliant - been showing some dramas I remember from the UK a few years back; they are also re-running McCallum at present (Scottish pathologist). We are up to February's editions in Casualty, and Holby City, Coronation St and Eastenders are also on UKTV, though I an't tell you how far behind they are.
Lots of Brit sitcoms and stuff too.

After Corrie was the Benny Hill Show, featuring classics like the chinese man who can't pronounce English words.
