I think the opening credits are due to return tomorrow, the reason for them being dropped from today's episode was so they would not give away new family groupings and characters.

The opening titles didn't appear until the second episode on Network Ten in 1986 as well. 

I just watched the first episode. Only one advert appeared during the whole episode for me which was for some weird Play-Doh competition, in the same style as your Lego Masters. Not sure on the white text on black background for the end credits, this has never been Neighbours. Unless this is a requirement for streaming programmes these days? It's very ITV. 

No spoilers but an unusual coupling in the first episode. Loved seeing some returnees for the wedding event. Scenes weren't dragged out, they flowed perfectly.

I loved the subtle attempt of zooming in on a characters name on their name tag at Lassiter's to explain who they are as they now have a new face in this run.
