Neighbours spoilers follow.
Three Neighbours stars have addressed their upcoming returns to the show, ahead of its final ever episode this Thursday (11 December). The long-running Aussie soap will be welcoming back a host of familiar faces, before viewers bid farewell to Ramsay Street for the last time.
Among those making a brief comeback this week are on-screen couple Shiv Palekar (Haz Devkar) and Georgie Stone (Mackenzie Hargreaves), who made their exit last autumn.
Haz and Mackenzie sailed off into the Parisian sunset together, following a heartwarming wedding attended by their friends and family.
Meanwhile, actor Xavier Molyneux will also be making an return to Erinsborough, as his character Byron Stone is reunited with his sister Nicolette.
After a messy break-up with Sadie Rodwell, the former couple managed to clear the air, before Byron packed his bags to go travelling this summer (with plans to meet up with Haz and Mackenzie in France).

Speaking about their comeback, Palekar and Stone shared that the returning cast “just snapped back into the old dynamic” when they arrived on set.
“One of the best things was when we were shooting in The Waterhole, [Palekar] and Xavier clicked right back into your very funny, very silly dynamic,” Stone agreed.
In the video, which was posted on Twitter/X by Neighbours, the pair teased an “emotional” finale and thanked fans for their support over the last 40 years.

“It’s just really special that we had this opportunity to come back,” Stone shared. “It’s been very special to see the outpouring of love and support for the show now that it’s coming to an end again.”
Meanwhile, in another video, Molyneux also shared his excitement to be asked back for the finale – though he claimed he “didn’t want any lines.”
He added: “I just wanted to come and say hi to the cast and crew, and tie it all up in a bow and just be here, I guess.”
All three characters will be back in town just in time for the residents of Ramsay Street to make a big decision about their future. But will they choose to relocate to Ramsay Hills or Robinson Towers?
