After an incredible 37-year run and a staggering 9363 episodes, the iconic Neighbours has officially wrapped production. Last night marked a bittersweet moment as the lights dimmed for the final time on the Nunawading television studios, the beloved home of the long-running Australian soap opera.
For generations of viewers, Ramsay Street has been more than just a fictional location; it's been a constant in their lives. From Charlene and Scott's wedding to the countless dramas, romances, and everyday moments, Neighbours has shaped Australian television and captured the hearts of audiences worldwide.
The final scenes, filmed recently, were reportedly emotional for the cast and crew, who have dedicated years to bringing the stories of Erinsborough's residents to life. While details of the final episode are being kept under wraps, it's expected to be a fitting tribute to the show's legacy and the characters we've grown to love.
