The final episode of Neighbours<\/a> is right around the corner, but amid the chaos on Ramsay Street, there looks set to be a glimmer of hope in the last ever storyline<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For the second time in just a few years<\/a>, Neighbours is preparing to wave goodbye<\/a> as the beloved Australian soap has been cancelled by Amazon<\/a> after the company initially saved it back in 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With next week marking the final outing<\/a> for the residents of Ramsay Street, the last storyline is an explosive one as the very setting of the soap is threatened with being demolished<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Controversial plans have been revealed that would involve demolishing the street in favour of a new freeway.<\/p>\n

The residents are stunned and face a fierce fight to save Ramsay Street, but with the show set to end after 40 years, will the screen fade to black one last time with them all moving away?<\/p>\n

It looks like there is a glimmer of hope on the horizon, with Neighbours icons Alan Fletcher<\/a> and Jackie Woodburne<\/a> shedding some light on what fans can expect from the finale.<\/p>\n

The duo have played Karl and Susan Kennedy<\/a> respectively in the show across the last four decades.<\/p>\n

Opening up about the show’s ending, Jackie told TV Week<\/a>: “I think the fans will love the ending because it is about hope.<\/p>\n

“Filming those scenes on the street, we were all reminded of the last time we were there. So it was kind of a double-barrelled emotional shotgun that day, because we were remembering the first time we farewelled the show.”<\/p>\n

Speaking about the soap’s first shock cancellation, she continued: “The first breakup is always the hardest \u2013 that\u2019s true heartbreak. This time we\u2019ve had a bit of time to get our heads around it. <\/p>\n

“But the loss is the same \u2013 we\u2019re going to lose this incredible place where people can join the industry.” <\/p>\n

The actor said they were both “very emotional” saying goodbye to the crew when filming wrapped over the summer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve seen people grow up, get married, have children, get divorced, get remarried\u2026 We\u2019ve had cast and crew who have passed away,” she said.<\/p>\n

“We see each other through the best and the worst of life \u2013 and that\u2019s a privilege that only happens when you get to play a character for this long.”<\/p>\n

Alan added: “The fact that so much advertising is now spread over so many different platforms makes it very hard for free-to-air networks to survive and to make a product. <\/p>\n

“What we think have been big changes over the last 40 years will be dwarfed by what AI is going to do to entertainment product.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s something the industry and all the workers in it are going to have to be very vigilant about\u2026 Because it\u2019s a runaway train that could run everybody over.” <\/p>\n

Neighbours releases new episodes from Mondays to Thursdays for free on Prime Video<\/a> in the UK and US. In Australia, the show airs from Mondays to Thursdays at 4pm on Channel 10, with a 6.30pm repeat screening on 10 Peach Comedy.<\/p>\n
