Yep, meant to say Commonwealth Games Grandstand instead of Olympic Grandstand.
But yep, Commonwealth Games Grandstand played havoc with the lunchtime Neighbours screenings, where it had odd timings. (11.55am, 3.00pm, 2.30pm)
Breakers, the new Aussie soap which had just started, would air only once a day in the morning at points due to the Kuala Lumpur Games or not air at all.
One repeat screening of Breakers on 18th September 1998 was aired at 2.55pm and was the lead in to Playdays.
