Pin Oak Court, in Vermont South, is the real cul-de-sac that has doubled for Ramsay Street. Over the serial's early years, three additional houses on the street were introduced as regular settings. Neighbours began with a focus on three households created by Watson – including the Ramsay and Robinson families, who have a long history, and an ongoing rivalry. The series centres on the residents of Ramsay Street, a cul-de-sac, and its neighbouring area, the Lassiters complex, which includes a bar, hotel, café, police station, lawyers' office and park. The storylines concern the lives of the people who live and work in Erinsborough, a fictional suburb of Melbourne, Victoria. In 2005, it was inducted into the Logie Hall of Fame. Neighbours has since become the longest-running drama series in Australian television history. It was immediately commissioned by rival Network Ten for a second production season, which began screening on 20 January 1986. Although successful in Melbourne, Neighbours underperformed in the Sydney market and was cancelled by Seven four months after it began airing. The Seven Network commissioned the show following the success of Watson's earlier soap Sons and Daughters. It was created by television executive Reg Watson. Neighbours is an Australian television soap opera which was aired from 18 March 1985 until 28 July 2022.
