Neighbours

Just watched Toadie’s last episode as a full time cast member of Neighbours.

Was a very good episode, with him getting to say goodbye to the residents, including Harold, and a very emotional Karl and Susan. Was also nice to see Terese arrive in time to say goodbye, as well as a very funny send off from the residents as well.

Also great cliff hanger for tomorrow’s episode.

Sad to see Toadie leave the show. An iconic character on Australian television.

They had him looking at the houses at the beginning of the show, reminiscing of his time on Ramsay Street (with a few clips shown to us).

At least he will be coming back every now and then.

Did he take his kids with him or did they stay behind?

For Now. Spoilers show Nell back on the street in mid-October. I suspect she will come back and live with Terese.

Time for 10Play to update their Neighbours poster.

Good luck. Entertainment Tonight still showing an image of the host who left the show five years ago: Nancy O’Dell.

Nischelle Turner has been the permanent co-host since 2019 and the logo is different.

I was watching Richard Quest’s World of Wonder on CNN at the weekend. Mr Quest was in Melbourne, and as part of the show he filmed a cameo appearance in Neighbours. The episode in question was filmed in June this year. Has it been broadcast yet, and if not, when can we expect to see it?

Then there is The Talk.

Sarah Gilbert left in August 2019, Sharon Osborne left in March 2021, and Julie Chen left in September 2018.

Sheryl Underwood is the only remaining cast member ahead of the show finishing up later this year.

No, it hasn’t. We are currently seeing episodes filmed in April. So in about two months, I guess.

I know this because it was mentioned on the Neighboursfans forum this week. An old recurring character, Gino Esposito, was back in the show this week. He and Susan Kennedy talked about being in contact with their mutual friend Lyn Scully. It was mentioned on the forum that this was obviously filmed before Janet Andrewartha, who played Lyn Scully, passed away in July.

I think his episode is 9140 as seen in the video below

So it’s probably around end of October as the episode that’s airing Monday is episode 9119

As a tribute to Ryan Moloney who departed Neighbours last week, tonight’s Have You Been Paying Attention has a segment in which each comedian is shown a scene from Toadie’s time in the soap, and answers a question on what happens next in the clip.

Neighbours have today announced the return of original cast member Peter O’Brien, who will be reprising his Shane Ramsay role.

He will be introducing us to son Max Ramsay, played by Ben Jackson, who is named after another iconic character, Shane’s father Max Ramsay.

When it’s presented like that it’s so easy to identify so many characters who shouldn’t have returned from the axing and some who’s already had their run.

Melanie, Aaron, Leo, Krista, Jane, Sam, Nicolette and Byron can all go. None of them should have returned.

Would create so much space.

Lasiters - Paul and Terese
22 - New family. Husband and wife run the new fish and chips business in Lasiters. Two teenage daughters.
24 - New Family. 2 Gay men who run Harold’s. Married. Adult son who runs the garage, young teenage son.
26 - The Rodwells with Wendy’s niece introduced.
28 - Karl, Susan, Holly
30 - Varga Murphys
32 - Share house like 2007 times Young, hot early 30’s.

Krista is a new character who was created way after the show returned. She is one of the good characters.

Agree about Leo, Melanie and Sam.

Disagree about Byron, Jane, Nicolette and Aaron. One Of those will be gone early next year according to rumours.

I think there’s potential for Terese to have a few nephews and nieces join the cast. Her brother Nick had two ex-wives so there’s untapped potential for family members there.

I’m liking Krista’s direction on the show too. We need a manager to go against Paul at times. She’s warmed with me.

Sadly, Leo, Melanie and Same haven’t done much since the show’s return.

Good to have another Ramsay entering the street soon. Shane Ramsay (Peter O’Brien) with son Max Ramsay. i doubt that Peter O’Brien will be on the show for long. Probably just a short stint like at the final few episodes two years ago.
