A daily television drama series set in the fictional Melbourne suburb of Erinsborough, Neighbours chronicles the lives of the residents of Ramsay Street. The series initially revolved around three families: the Ramsays (at number 24 Ramsay Street), the Robinsons (at number 26), and the Clarkes (at number 28). The scope of the series has since broadened to include new Ramsay Street familes.

An Australian, German, and Scottish co-production filmed on location in Sri Lanka, Elephant Boy was an adaptation of 'Toomai of the Elephants', a story from Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book (1894). 'Toomai of the Elephants' had already been made into a successful 1937 film (also called Elephant Boy), starring Sabu, and the earlier film largely overshadows the later re-make.

The program has no discernable Australian content, but did include some Australian actors, notably Kevin Miles (who played Prince Paddam) and Ric Hutton (who played Colonel Shannon). It also employed Australian script-writers, including Tony Morphett. Post-production took place at the Artransa Park studios in Sydney.

The first episode of Elephant Boy, 'The Tyrant', is available on YouTube:
