I must admit I haven't watched any episodes since the first one. I was intending to but got caught up in other things. I think I was a bit put off by the ending of the first. Is it worth finishing, in people's view?

The kitchen has had a repaint and bits have switched around, but it's definitely the one. Fridge and microwave positioning are giveaways, though they at least replaced the tea towel. Lassiter's corridors getting a good workout too. It wouldn't be a Jason Herbison/Channel 5 drama if bits of the Neighbours sets weren't being liberally deployed.

Seeing the No 32 kitchen in another role was also wild. Guess that explains why Max, Taye and Colton have been shivering in the spa/locked out of the house for the last few weeks. Enjoying it so far. Very jarring to see Jackie playing someone else at first but I'm settling into it now. ETA: Leila Potts is in it! Hardly recognised Charlie Clausen and Jackson Gallagher, but Pierce II is very recognisable.

Anyone watching tonight? Going to give it a shot I think.

Thought we could have a watchalong thread for Jackie Woodburne's new drama for when it comes on, as Channel 5 has announced it will air from Monday 15 to Thursday 18 December at 9pm. I imagine lots of us will be wanting to watch this to get our Jackie fix in the days following the Neighbours finale. Other recognisable faces in the show will include Kym Marsh (Corrie's Michelle Connor) and Dannii Minogue (H&A's Emma Jackson) - plus Don Hany (Neighbours' Pierce Greyson II), Charlie Clausen (Zac MacGuire from H&A, Jay Duncan from Neighbours), Jackson Gallagher (H&A's Josh Barrett and Neighbours' Nathan Packard), and Jane Harber (Neighbours' Bianca Nugent).
