The Final Scene | Neighbours 

It was right Jackie closed the series. She is one of Australia’s greatest actors. The backbone of neighbours for 28 years. Well done Jackie ! Xx

Mum and I had watched Neighbours here in Ireland for years and even when Mum's health went into decline last year, she would never miss an episode. Mum died last November and I have found it hard to sit and watch her favourite shows without her. This ending while absolutely beautifully made makes me miss Mum even more. It feels like so many endings but I guess there has always to be hope of new beginnings. Thank you to all the cast of Neighbours down through the years for always bringing so much pleasure to so many, in particular to Mum and me. Thank you for the memories and tears, the laughter and even at times, the frustrations. Most of all, thank you for being all of you. Till the next time........

It's bizarre that the show is back in literally 8 days and this endint still makes me cry lol

The Madge Doug Hendrix and toadies wife as ghosts had me in floods of tears this is how you end an institution thank you neighbours for being in all of our lives you will be missed

When Susan said “I love you” to Karl and he said “ I love you too” you can tell that they were saying that to each other as Jackie and Alan as friends obviously , a great on screen relationship and off screen friendship. Goodbye neighbours thank you so much I will miss you .

I was already crying but Susan’s monologue made me blub like an absolute baby! I still can’t believe it’s truly over. Neighbours started the year I was born and so has always been a part of my life and it feels like I’m in mourning right now, which sounds extreme but it’s always been there and I can’t believe it won’t be there anymore. I’m just glad everyone got their happy ending.

The actress who plays Susan is a class act. The monologue at the end was the perfect way to end the show. Emotional for sure. Thanks Neighbours :-)

I admit I hadn't watched Neighbours in years...or perhaps decades. But seeing this brought back so many memories. Oh, Lord...............

Well done Jackie, the only one who could have done that monologue. I was sad when their goodbye message came up. We love you too, and thank you to everyone who has been a part of the show. I was born in 1985 and can’t believe it’s been around my whole life

I hadn't watched Neighbours for about 15 years, but once I realised it was the last week got a pang of nostalgia and watched the last week of episodes. It went out in a really classy way. You can tell how much love there is for it from former cast members that so many came back for the last episode, and many of those that couldn't be there in person gave little video clips. Guy Pearce even played a major role in the last 2 episodes. Hats off to him for giving so much time, I'm guessing they weren't paid, or if they were, just standard rates and/ or expenses. It was a pretty classy soap, and even though I'd stopped watching it, it is sad to see it go. It, along with Home and Away, were both great training grounds for up and coming actors. And it seemed totally fitting that Susan Kennedy gave the final monologue.

Haven't watch it in over ten years, but have to admit the theme tunes and old photos got me just a tiny bit. The good old days of neighbours!

I haven't watched Neighbours since the 80's. Just out of nostalgia I decided to have a look at this. I'm in tears now. Bugger you!!

Congratulations to every cast and crew member who has been part of the show over the years. Neighbours has been folklore and passes into soap legend. Goodbye and thankyou x

I didn’t know how the final episode of Neighbours could live up to my expectations,but if anything you surpassed them. Well done to cast and crew for a wonderful 37 years . I watched this show from the very first episode , as a young teenager and now I watch the final episode as a 50 year old… gonna miss yea .

To all the neighbours cast present, cast past and crew. You probably don't really know how much of an impact you've made on people's lives all around the world. I'm absolutely gutted that it has all come to an end. I wish you all the greatest luck for the future. I hope you all have or will find new adventures and jobs in your lives. Will always love your show. So much love to you all. Matt, Plymouth. UK. ❤️

The perfect ending to a perfect blend. I feel like I'm mourning the loss of a loved one. It has been in my life ALL my life.

After watching Neighbours since the very first episode, I was sad to find out it was ending. The last episode was fantastic. I was so emotional. Thanks to all at Neighbours for all your hard work over the years. You have left an amazing legacy 💔

That's when good Neighbours... will always become good friends forever. My family used to watch this series, and for me... i love everything Australian-related when it comes to Ramsay St. and Neighbours. R.I.P Neighbours (1985-2022)

Beautiful final scene, her voice over speech was perfect , sad to see it end and awesome to see the classic old casts together again & how they merged all the theme tunes in the closing

As soon as I saw Kylie and Jason I was transported back to my youth 😢 Gonna miss my daily dose of goings on in Ramsay Street. Thank you Neighbours 🥂 #BeenThereSinceDayOne

They nailed the final monologue perfectly, and the timing of the original theme was masterful.

Things you may have missed in this scene: Joel's scenes were filmed totally separately as he is not seen interacting with any other character and is always seen standing alone. Mike and Scott/Charlene are not seen together in the same shot as the actors couldn't film on the same day. At the end you'll see Jane looking up at him on the balcony but he is far to the left to avoid being seen in the same shot as Scott and Charlene. In the same episode, it is made out that they are reintroduced and go for a hug but you don't see it. When the balloon bursts, you will see Harold on the ground looking up with the others, but when it bursts, he is back on the balcony! I need a life.

I have not watched Neighbours for 30 years but this was a perfect ending to the show I loved in the 80's.... x

Not ashamed to say I cried multiple times throughout the last ever episode of Neighbours. Such a beautiful way to end the show. So many memorable storylines and characters over the years. Thank you to all the cast and crew who made it so iconic.

It’s the end of an era. Neighbours really are good friends. 🇦🇺🤝🇬🇧

I cried at the start, half way through. But at the end when susan was talking i was crying like someone in my family had pasted. Been watching since mid 90s ish. Me and my mum talked about it alot. I am so sad its no more. 😭😭

Lovely final scene. When I was a kid in the 90s I watched the show after school and then when I went to university I watched the show during the day while taking study breaks. Good memories.

Seeing Doug was a brilliant surprise that I didn't know about. I started watching around 2005, hadn't missed an episode since. Thank you to all the wonderful memories you've given us.

I’ve never seen this show at all, but as someone who’s watched soap operas all my life, this was a textbook-level perfect final scene. Congratulations to all the families and friends of Ramsay St. May you live on in our hearts as our forever Neighbours.

Still crying...Great finale. Thank you for 37 years of friendship. I started watching Neighbours from day 1, at 3 months old lol with my mum. I love you all so much 💗 I wish you all the best. I pray Neighbours returns one day - perhaps ch 5 will realise their error or another channel will pick it up again. (Andrea from the UK) xx

I could picture myself watching at that age when she talked about each resident. Eventually the emotions boiled over and I burst out in reminiscent laughter. Thanks Jackie. Will miss you all.

Brilliant ending, well done to the writers and the actors. Thank you for so many years of pleasure. Very sad that it is the end of an era; there will never be another 'Neighbours'.

I am so depressed that neighbours has finished. I love my daily visit to Australia. Thank you,cast,crew writers and everyone who worked on the show. I now await the reruns . Love to you all xx

WATCHING this with my grandmother 38 years ago. Stop watching ot came back and always love the show I think it be missed by alot of people

Thank you for posting the full version of the ending. In the UK, Channel 5 sped up the credits for some reason so we didn't get to hear all the themes and they went too fast to read the names. They also omitted the final shot of the cast and crew. I'm glad it's included here because they all deserve to be in the final shot.

Susan's monologue broke me. And, when i saw Sonya... Dude, this is heartbreaking. I'll miss you all.

Great ending, seeing Sonya with the kids gave me a lump in my throat😢

A perfect end and speech. I loved how Susan said ' people from afar'. It was as though she was acknowledging the overseas viewers

Thank you for one the best programmes ever, you will be missed, neighbours.

Beautiful way to end, loved the Karl and Susan moments.

Absolutely great final, gutted its the end, thank you all cast and crew for 37years

Even as a 45 year old, I had to watch this. Neighbours was such a part of mine and my friends teens. Every evening after school it was Neighbours time, we’d all talk about it the next day. The only other sad thing I feel now is that I’m so old! We loved you Neighbours!

I watched it from the beginning as a teenager getting in from school. As a young adult I'd video it so I could watch it getting in from work. As a Mum I'd watch it whilst my baby napped, as an empty nester I'd catch it at lunchtime. And through covid it was a safe constant escape from the strange world and confusing times we were, and are, still living in. Thanks to all the cast and crew. I doubt I'll ever watch another programme for 36 years again!

Scott and Charlene turning up with "especially for you" playing was brilliant 😂

Brilliant finale! Trending number 1 on Twitter. The Mike and Jane story was the best. Please reconsider - don't end it!

AMAZING ending!.Everyone involved in making Neighbours and the finale should very proud of themselves. So sad it is all over, I seriously do not know what I'm going to do without Neighbours : ( . I really hope it comes back one day

I watched this show in the early 90s as a kid and it was a big part of my life at the time, thank you for the memories and giving us something fantastic to watch for so many years. We will miss you Neighbours

I have watch neighbours eith my mum as long as i can remember the last 14 year for me have been full of laughter and tears love you neighbours forever and always ❤️

An absolutely monumental finale! Perfect! I grew up watching neighbours in the 80s. We all used to chat about the cliff hanger endings in the classroom. These characters were part of my life for so many years. It was so emotional to see them all again. Well done! A magnificent send off!

When I visited Melbourne from the UK a few years ago I had the very lucky chance to visit the Neighbours set and walk around Ramsay Street - wow, watching this final episode made me cry so much!

What a truly beautiful episode, so pleased to see so many old faces, some of whom are major A listers - but no egos. Should never have been cancelled. Thank you x

Best written Finale to a show I’ve ever know. Thank you for everything, Neighbours has been my every day since I was tiny and for 29 years I have watched it and never missed an episode. I’ve cried for weeks overit coming to an end. Although I wish it weren’t the end, what a way to go out, it was just perfect. I still have hope it can come back. You all did yourselves proud and honoured the show that we have all loved for years. Thank you. ❤️💔❤️

I will forever be sad that something that has been constantly there for nearly my entire life, is now over, but as finales go, that was off the charts amazing. So many great memories from the show growing up, and to see how far so many that started on the show have gone too is very special to see. It would be great to see it back in some form in the future, but if it isn't then know I'd like to thank the cast & crew, both past & present, for being such a big part of my life. 😊 Apologies for the rogue years I was estranged from the show, but just like so many of the characters, I always seemed to find my way back to Ramsey Street again when life tried to take me on a different path! I look forward to seeing what everyone does going forward, too many great actors from the current cast that we aren't going to see many of them going onto great things elsewhere in the future.

I will miss those nights where me and fam ate dinner whilst watching this fabulous show - what a great way to close the series

Not watched this show for over 30 years but now I think I'm going to miss it....... Great to see S, C , M and J all back together. Great times!

Used to watch it in my school days, nice to see the old characters making a comeback.

The monologue and music made my cry 😭😭😭😭😭 I'm going to miss this like crazy 😭😭😭😭

Didn't deserve to be cancelled, I've watched this since I was very young and as a family we grew up with neighbours. A great ending ❤️

Love neighbours always will. The best that ever was on

Admitting to watching Neighbors was like admitting to having a alcohol problem for me but watching this ending with Susan narrating was wholesome.....' Hi, my name is Boss man and I have a Neighbour's addiction '

Neighbours please I’m begging you, upload all the episodes on RU-vid or any streaming service. We can’t let neighbours fall extinct

Neighbours ended in a very classy, reflective, emotional way, using the same reminiscing monologue that was used for the final episode of Falcon Crest many years ago, only Neighbours managed to do it even better than Falcon Crest did. They both used the matriarch to deliver to reflection (Jane Wyman and Jackie Woodburne) and while both were heartfelt and made me cry, Neighbours truly celebrated the past and present characters and it was touching to see the part with some of those who had died appear briefly (Madge, Doug, Hendrix, Sonia and Finn). Although I believe they could have at least shown a photo or video of Craig McLachlan, overall it was an amazing ending that felt true to the spirit and history of Neighbours. Now we need to urge the rights owners to continue the DVD releases, we particularly need a DVD release of the final batch of episodes with all the returning characters with the very emotional final episode included.

Wow, this did bring tears. I have grown up with Neighbours and it is very sad to see it end. I am very sad to see it end but then All good things... Thank you for the great show.

Still crying! Such a waste. It was going so strong. I hope people realise what they've lost now it's gone :( - Thank you EVERYONE and all the very best for the future. The perfect blend!

I'm going to miss Neighbours so much ❤

Got to be honest haven't watched it for a few years, but had to watch the last episode,,Was balling remembering the first episode on bbc1 the family and friends we had ,Thank you Neighbour's ,it's certainly been a journey..

I saw the show at the palladium, I couldn't stop crying it was so good !!!Fantastic

Watching this again... since it was such an excellent finale. As an American I have watched too many finales of our long running soaps. None can compare to how this, even though sad, is basically a celebration . So from one of those watching from afar....Thanks Australia!

The monologue and the show was beautiful. They ticked all the boxes and gave us a wonderful send off. Loved Mike and Jane taking us around the homes (hadn’t watched since about 2001 and didn’t recognise the new sets so it was nice they clarified whose home was whose). The whole thing was joyous. Thank you Neighbours.

So sad it’s over. Been watching since my nearly 36 year old son was a baby, my little bit of daily escapism and me time. Thanks for the memories ❤️🙏❤️

Aaaaaahhhhhhh! I’ve grown up with neighbours and although I stopped watching as I got older, it was an important memory of my childhood. What a lovely way to end it 💕

Thank you for bringing us this iconic show, we are so fortunate to have had Neighbours for 37yrs not many shows last that... People saying they didn't see the point of Kylie and Jason being there, at least they returned to what started their careers. They didn't say nah we're better than that show so we won't return, they at least made the effort to return for the final... Thank you Kylie and Jason for reprising your rolls and being part of Neighbours final, you are both appreciated for making that effort not all big time stars would return to what made them famous in the first place...

Neighbours has been around since I was born. It was my childhood. It brings back so many amazing memories. I really loved this show. So sad it has to be brought to an end. Thank you for the many, many years of your lovely programme. TV won't be the same without you. Genuinely upset that this has happened.

Am 48 years old and watched neighbours growing up and still watch it . Sad it could not be saved

I’m saddened that Neighbours has finished. So many fantastic memories and so many careers where launched thanks to the show. Rest in peace Neighbours you will never be forgotten

Hi! It was a wonderful finale. The scrip writers should be really proud of themselves. What a wonderful way to integrate old characters. And I loved how Jackie finished everything off. I will miss this show tremendously, I’ve watched since the start. 👍🏻😃💜

Brilliant finale, so well written, so great to see so many cast past and present. Thank you and God Bless to you all.

Beautiful ending.

I usually hate endings of a series but this is 🤌🏻 *chefs kiss*

It was a good moment to see Paul reunite with Scott and Charlene.

Crying like a baby with everyone together so heartbreaking 💔 😢 😭 xx

I'm 50 I remember watching the first ever episode here in the u.k. ..I was off of school ill with tonsillitis and my sisters boyfriend at the time was looking after me ..that was it I was hooked like many others ...I hadn't watched neighbours in recent years I suppose like a lot of people you fall away from tv shows or you get older or life gets in the way ..but when I heard if was ending I had to watch to see what would happen ..It was so surreal seeing all those characters again ..des, jane, Charlene, scott ,mike to name a few ..it was just suprise after suprise of old faces ..a really great way to end a once loved and cherished show with millions of viewers every episode here in britan

Watched the show from ‘87 til about 2001 and that’s the first time I realised it’s “perfect blend” (always thought friend!). The finale was perfect (even had cricket being played). Well done writers you nailed it.

Just a wonderful, emotionally charged finale. I managed to keep it mostly together until Susan's monologue. It's funny, years go by without friends or family visiting loved ones on the street and then they all turn up at once! Still, a wedding is a fantastic excuse for a street party which is a fave on Ramsey Street. Loved it.

Love neighbours ♥ always. It was the best show ever was on. Sorry to see it go

Well what an episode, ive sobbed all the way through, Susan made me cry the most, loved seeing Jane and Mike back together, but for me it was Jason donovan 😍 had posters of him on my wall as a kid, but seeing him in today's episode brought back so many of good memories. I'm gonna miss neighbours it's been part of my life from the beginning, we were always late back to class as we used to watch it in our lunch break at school 😂. #bring back neighbours!!!

Loved this evening’s episode. Brought back so many memories. Brilliantly written finale. 🙌

Thank you Neighbours! We’ll miss you. You’re such a big hit in my family, and every single one of us got something out of the finale from over of the different decades! A beautiful conclusion

I started watching Neighbours with my Nana in the 80s, and watched all through the 90s even when I couldn’t watch with her. It’s been a while since I watched regularly (life, ‘ey?) but I couldn’t miss the finale for a nostalgic punch in the feels. Great to see so many people who “got their start” on the show return (I see you, Guy Pearce, ha bloody legend), but also I just really feel for all those who were currently working on the show and who now don’t have that work. You’ve all handled this with such class, and I applaud the way you wrapped this up not just for the fans but for yourselves. As someone who works with Jackie in the audio medium, I think the choice to have her deliver the final monologue was a stroke of genius, coz she’s just so damn good at it! She’s such a tremendous actor, and I can’t wait to be In the studio again with her. While it’s sad Neighbours has ended, y’all can be really proud that you turnt it - right to the very end. Go well.

Goodbye Neighbours you were part of my life I was born in 88 used to watch it on BBC1 and then 5 then lost interest then watched it again with my mum this year

Thank you all cast and crew members. That was amazing and beautifully done. You've had me in tears on and off throughout this last week and the Finale kept it going. So many seen but not heard nods as in if you're a fan you knew...yes I saw you Jason Herbison you legend👏👏I was there from start to finish. Thank you for every minute and I really hope we get to see you all again soon.💔😭 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘

4:11 It’s only flippin’ Philip Martin sadly missing his lovely butterscotch shirt but still a very welcome surprise. Would have liked to see more of him but damn, there were so many returning members I half expected portals to start opening up down the street like the finale of Endgame. Neighbours Assemble, anyone? Really rather impressive work given the sudden dramatic axing of the show and though there were more happy endings than Return of the King they certainly went out with style. Sad that from Monday all we get is bloody Cash in the Attic but if that’s Channel 5’s definition of “new, fresh, home grown entertainment” then who are we to argue? Oh, and all those Home and Away “new beginnings” adverts? Give me a break, guys, it’s just a thinly veiled attempt to say “Please don’t forget there is still another Aussie soap on 5!” Flamin’ charlatans …

Perfect ending gunna miss this show so much

I’ve watched this a few times now and I still cry every single time! Oh how I will miss neighbours!!! ❤️

I watched it last night and was in tears,just watched it here and I'm away again...so brilliantly put together.and it was great to see my idol back where she started.

Good luck to the cast and crew of Neighbours. Thanks for many years of entertainment. I hope you all go on to bigger and better things!

Will greatly miss it , the ending was so moving , nearly everyone decided to stay in the street , maybe it may not be end ? All the best to the cast and crew love from the UK ❤️ now wistfully thinking that there are still going about there business x

Wow. This was a great episode, very emotional, loved having the old cast back with the flash backs and the ones that past away on the show. This will definitely be missed ❤️

Thank you for a heartwarming finale, Susan's heartfelt monologue at the end brought tears as did seeing past and present characters come together. For everyone involved in Neighbours I wish you all happiness and good health.

I cried when The Sullivans ended 1983. i also cried when Prisoner Cell Block H ended 1986. I'm now crying again for Neighbours. And i'm a Brit.
