Neighbours resumes filming with social distancing

Australian soap Neighbours restarts production with strict social distancing measures in place on set.

Aussie soap Neighbours has begun filming new episodes with social distancing measures in place.

The long-running serial was forced to stop production for a few weeks due to the coronavirus pandemic but filming is thought to have resumed in late April after the Melbourne set was made safe.

Pictures on social media have revealed how production is going ahead, with all actors keeping 1.5 metres apart and crew on set kept to an absolute minimum.

All those involved with shooting the show are said to be given regular temperature checks and are also required to follow strict hygiene rules, including regular hand-washing.

Last week Channel 5 revealed a new 'socially-distanced' advert for the soap - watch below:
