Home And Away
''Home and Away'' (often abbreviated as ''H&A'') is an Australian television soap opera. It was created by Alan Bateman and commenced broadcast on the Seven Network on 17 January 1988. Bateman came up with the concept of the show during a trip to Kangaroo Point, New South Wales, where he noticed locals were complaining about the construction of a foster home and against the idea of foster children from the city living in the area. The soap opera was initially going to be called ''Refuge'', but the name was changed to the "friendlier" title of ''Home and Away'' once production began. The show premiered with a ninety-minute pilot episode (subsequently in re-runs and on VHS known as ''Home and Away: The Movie''). Since then, each subsequent episode has aired for a duration of twenty-two minutes. ''Home and Away'' has become the second longest-running drama series in Australian television, after '' Neighbours''. In Australia, it is currently broadcast from Mondays to Thursdays at ...

The PS5 is part of the ninth generation of video game consoles, along with Microsoft's Xbox Series X and Series S consoles, which were released in the same month.

Owned by Condé Nast Publications, it is published in London and is an offshoot of the original American ''Wired''. History Earlier version (mid–1990s) The magazine's current incarnation follows an earlier attempt at a British edition of ''Wired'' which ran from April 1995 until March 1997.
