The BBC has commissioned a new daytime Australian soap after losing the long-running show Neighbours in a bidding war with Five.

Out of the Blue will be set in the Sydney resort of Manly and opens with a group of friends in their 30s returning to their hometown for a reunion.

The BBC has initially ordered 130 episodes of Out of the Blue from the production company Southern Star Group.

 They mean it will be the same storylines, recycled every six months, and probably be full of unlikely and unbelieveable villains.

From what read in the newspaper:  BBC decided they did not want Neighbours anymore, and they commissioned 150 episodes of a new Surfing Soap series from Australia
