After 37 years on our screens, iconique Aussie soap Neighbours is finally coming to an end.
Since the announcement that the drama series is ending its run, there have been a bunch of rumours about which stars would be returning for what’s set to be one helluva finale.
Folks recently lost their shit after it was revealed that Kylie Minogue would be reprising her legendary role as Charlene for the first time since her departure in 1988.
And we’ve just gotten wind of all the other ex-Neighbours peeps who will be returning.
“Whether the eighties, nineties, naughties or teens is your favourite decade, we will be delivering something for everyone as Neighbours draws to a close,” Neighbours’ Executive Producer Jason Herbison said via TV Blackbox.
“Alongside the current cast we will be celebrating the most memorable characters from across many eras, with a few surprises up our sleeve.”
According to the Neighbours Twitter, Margot Robbie, Jesse Spencer, Delta Goodrem, Kym Valentine and Carla Bonner will all make an appearance in the finale!
Surprise! 👀
You didn’t think we were done did you?!

Meanwhile Natalie Imbruglia and Holly Valance will also appear, in scenes filmed in London where both now live.
There’s also Ian Smith who played good ol’ Harold Bishop, mega hottie Daniel MacPherson who played Joel Samuels in the ’90s before kickstarting his modelling and presenting career.

“Joining Neighbours at age 17, little did I know, was going to kickstart a career that continues to be the adventure of a lifetime,” Daniel said.
“To go back and play Joel one more time, was a small way to show my enormous gratitude to cast, crew and fans of the show.”
And the one I’m most excited about (after Kylie, of course) is Natalie Bassingthwaighte returning as tricky minx Izzy Hoyland.
Lock up your husband, Susan!
