Neighbours has lovingly doffed its cap to EastEnders in celebration of the BBC soap’s 35th birthday.
The BBC soap’s official Twitter account thanked the soap for the reference, writing: “We raise a toast to you from The Vic to The Waterhole.”
EastEnders is celebrating its 35th anniversary with a series of dramatic episodes depicting a fatal boat party.
The Australian show, which also turns 35 this year, hinted it was set in the same world as EastEnders with a background detail referencing its British counterpart.
