Kylie and Jason to reunite for Neighbours farewell episode
BOSSES on Neighbours are planning to reunite superstars Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan for the axed soap’s farewell.
Jason, 53, who played Scott Robinson, told show execs that he is flying to Melbourne in April and could potentially film a dramatic comeback.
But he wants to be joined by pop princess Kylie, 53, who played his wife Charlene.
A source confirmed bosses are doing everything they can to make it happen.
The Sun on Sunday can reveal that Ian Smith, 83, has agreed to return as Harold Bishop and will start filming next month.
Soap bosses are also in contact with Hollywood star Guy Pearce, 54, who played Mike Young.
Annie Jones, 55, who played his love interest Jane Harris in the 1980s, returned in 2018.
We exclusively revealed last week that the Aussie soap which has been on Channel 5 since 2008 is to be axed after the network was unable to reach a deal with producers Fremantle.
A source said: “One thing’s for sure, Neighbours is going out with a bang. It’s been an emotional week for everyone.
There have been a lot of tears but the cast and crew are more determined than ever to finish on a real high.”
They added: “Bosses have spoken to Jason who has agreed in theory to return. Kylie has always been a huge supporter of the show they’re just waiting to hear back.”
