Just where are our dramas being filmed in terms of suburban and regional locations?
This week TV Tonight looks at some of the key areas used by our scripted dramas, comedies and kids television.
Networks have supplied a list of key areas used for filming and we kick off today with Victoria. As you’ll see there’s quite a bit of production happening in bayside suburbs such as St. Kilda, Middle Park, Elwood for such shows as House Husbands and Time of our Lives.
Fitzroy is another popular area for Offspring, Jack Irish and Winners and Losers.
Neighbours is famously entrenched in Vermont.
ABC is making the most of regional areas Ballarat, Port Fairy and the Yarra Valley.
Please note these area mappings are general only, and not designed to reflect actual street locations. They also don’t include studio interiors.
NB: Untitled Chris Lilley project declined to participate.
Tomorrow we’ll look at a New South Wales drama map.

Winners and Losers regularly use Highpoint too
Neighbours has gone as far as Wantirna South for location shoots before – I remember seeing Knox City Shopping Centre on there a few times when the younger characters went out for the night.
Of course, they have shot in the CBD and Queensland too. But these are the key locations as advised by each show just designed to give a sense of their backdrops.
This is quite cool. Thanks David for the article, and am interested in the shows on NSW tomorrow.
stalkeriffic!
So interesting, thanks.
To me Melbourne equates with “The Secret Life of Us”, Felt I lived there when watching the show.
this is great!
Thanks David!A I stated in another post recently, other cities like Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart, Perth and Darwin, would be great to feature for something different!
I know the GC, Alice Springs, Far NQ and the Wollongong region have featured without much success, but they need to consider other locations for drama series.
