I don't know why it's there, but it's the guy who plays Alf Stewart

I don't know why they're bothering to do that

Does anyone know if those voice-overs were originally made for the Australian eps, or if they have been made specially for the UK or anywhere else that currently has them?

Five did some a year or two again and Kim said 'Next on Five it's Family Affairs' and Yesterday Irene said 'Turn to five life'!

No no it's not Alf, he spoke before the episode. Today its Rick, but actually during the episode its like 'Rick comes over to the couch'... in a British accent. Maybe my tv is broken lol

the announcer on five mentioned last week that H&A stars would be joining them next week (this week), probably recorded when they were in the country for Soapstar and Panto, if you look at the advert before it you will see Tasha on the beach too

They had Scott Hunter do this about 6 months ago.

I don't think they do it in Australia and I'm really peed off that I missed Ric's. The only one I've heard is flamin' Alf's! I think he said he was off to catch a gallah for something!

So they can show more of the story rather than waste minutes with an opening credit thingy!

I think it's just for the British episodes, since Ric, Irene and Alf are already in the UK because Ric appeared on Soapstar Superstar. Just a guess.

How can they show more story? Surley they were showing the whole episode anyway.

It must be to allow an extra 10 secs for something else?

Its really annoying I wish they would show the titles again. Every once in a while is just wrong!!
