Neighbours
10Peach, 6.30pm
Erinsborough turns on the rainbow colours when Lassiters hosts a Pride festival and a vibrant Courtney Act confidently steals the show. The event's star attraction, she sings, wears a couple of fab outfits and provides makeovers for Sheila (Colette Mann) and Ned (Ben Hall). There's glitter and good vibes galore, although as the festivities are under way Chloe (April Rose Pengilly) and Pierce (Tim Robards) both fret that they've rushed too hastily into their marriage. Meanwhile, Aaron (Matt Wilson) and David (Takaya Honda) face a second interview in their quest to become foster parents. Clearly efforts are being made to distance Neighbours from its conservative image of old. Here, Erinsborough congratulates itself on being "supportive and inclusive", embraces gay parents and drag revues, and accepts Chloe's bisexuality. As an added bonus, Pierce gets his shirt off and displays and impressive six-pack.
