Season two of RFDS will premiere next week on Seven, but not in an early timeslot the network had been toying with.
It will screen at 9:15pm Tuesday following The Voice, which differs significantly from earlier discussions around a potential 7:30 slot.
Had it gone into 7:30 Wednesday it would face 10’s Thank God You’re Here, although next week that space will be another FIFA match.
Staff shortages and an unreachable Leonie (Justine Clarke) have the team working at their limits amidst the chaos of the White Cliffs rodeo, leaving Pete (Stephen Peacocke) and new mental health nurse Chaya (Emma Harvie) alone to deal with a horror multi-casualty car accident that forces him to act well outside of his scope of practice.
9:15pm Tuesday August 15 on Seven.

It’s winter people are home and the Networks have run completely out of Northern Hemisphere shows, so we get Australian shows. The reality is that The Voice is doing fairly well for Seven and they can’t mess with that. RFDS gives them local content quotas and sells well overseas. And a lot of people will stream RFDS whenever Seven put it on.
Or at the least have the voice finish at 8.40, or 8.40 like 10 usually do with their reality offerings on Mondays to lead into HYBPA. Agree people aren’t going to be hanging out for 8.15 if you aren’t watching the preceding show.
I cannot wait for this. I loved the first series.
Loved the first series too, might be one to pvr as I’ll forget to tune in at that odd time.
Yay, more Aussie drama, after virtually nothing that has appealed all year, they are all back at once! Once again well timed Networks. I’d prefer them more well spaced (I nkow ABC have had Aussie dramas all year), but virtually nothing else. Ah well Thank God my PVR is here! and that there is Aussie light entertainment and docos when there is limited drama 🙂
What a ridiculously late timeslot. Do Seven think it’s the year 2000 again and people start will sit down to watch a commercial tv drama starting at 9.15pm like they did Stingers or All Saints? There appears to be no reason Voice could not have been reduced to two nights.
