Australia's Network TEN bought the rights to Out of the Blue shortly after it was commissioned by the BBC and finally started airing the show in a 10.30pm slot on Mondays to Thursdays from November 2008.
The show performed well in its late night timeslot - with an average of around 335,000 viewers - prompting Ten to try it out in an earlier 6pm slot on Sundays from January.
From February 8, fans in Australia will be able to see double episodes of the show on Sunday nights from 5.30pm to 6.30pm. You can also catch up with the episodes on Ten's website if you miss any.
Ten appears to be doing its best to find a place for the show, but still seems slightly wary of giving it a regular evening slot on weeknights.
The 130-episode run is likely to be broadcast in full in Australia as it has been in the UK. Out of the Blue gives local content credit to Ten, meaning that it's unlikely to leave the episodes sitting on the shelf.
