Although I guess the model Talking Pictures use means it being one of the more forgotten and one of the shortest running soaps works to their benefit. Apparently they showed in 2016 - it seems they (or more correctly, their parent company) own the vast majority of Southern television archives, which is probably how it ended up with a rerun.Doesn't really point us to many other classic soap runs given many are owned by Granada/ITV or others. Everyone knows where my interest in this topic lies primarily at this point - and whilst it's good to see some soapy shows getting a rerun there's not much to take optimism, personally - even if there is in general optimism for people who like the show itself. I note BBC4 have began rerunning 2008 EE during lockdown, noting it here for those who might not have seen that one.</blockquote>
