It sounds like a really last minute decision, or is it normal for producers to leave telling actors til the last minute like this?Toadie has been doing interviews today.
- Said they only found out last week via a personal visit to each of their homes by the producer Jason
- He doesn’t know if Freevee will air all the old episodes or just a selection
- The new series is considered full time employment for him
It must be a relief for them, imagine having worked almost your whole career on such an iconic show, it must be hard to find work on anything else (not to mention with all the competition from the rest of your ex castmates)I would say last minute. Do Karl, Susan and toadie live in Melbourne? Maybe it was a last minute whiz round to see if they are onboard and do the promo video. Maybe they were up against it time wise to tell people before the news broke hence just those 4 being spoken to.
It sounded like they live close as he got to all of them in one day. IMO they are the main 4 and those are the ones it wouldn’t be the same withoutI would say last minute.

Thanks for sharing the article. I can't see them doing 5 episodes a week, I know April said on instagram thay the cast found it too much doing 5 episodes a week. I wonder if it will be cheaper to do 2 episodes a week and cut the cast down.Thank you for using my thread suggestion!
Exclusive: Neighbours boss Jason Herbison shares secrets of show's return
Jason Herbison explains all in an exclusive Digital Spy chat.www.digitalspy.com
The Neighbours producer Jason Herbison has given an exclusive interview to Digital Spy, discussing show’s revival.
One thing he said stood out to me. When asked if Neighbours would be returning in a daily episode format or just for one series, he said they’ve got plenty more announcements surrounding the show’s revival coming up, but he assured us there will be lots of new episodes to enjoy.
On Twitter, AmazonUK have just replied to Amazon Freevee’s announcement that Neighbours will be returning. Baring in mind, AmazonUK has 1.5 million Twitter followers!
Her comments about it being so much work are interesting, obviously it must be but all the people who work in soaps do this surely? Either way I don't think it would be likely to hVe a soap format on a streaming service as presumably they would release loads of episodes at once, rather than daily as soaps usually are. I wonder how the actors feel about not being told about anything and finding out viabsoxial media, I'd be pretty angry tbhI would love to see April back. I guess we’ll see…
I would but only if she's single when she comes back, I hate Elly.I would love to see April back. I guess we’ll see…
I imagine they weren't happy, buy the main 4 were told and they could easily continue without a lot of the other cast.Her comments about it being so much work are interesting, obviously it must be but all the people who work in soaps do this surely?

We are used to seeing episodes the same time as Australia, if not before them. People won't accept being so far behind them again like the old days.I am more or less certain that Melanie and Terese will be returning for the next series. Jason Herbison, in his interview said he hopes to entice many familiar faces back to the show. I’ve just seen a Tweet asking Lucinda Cowden to return for the next series, and she replied “I’m crossing absolutely everything”. It’s very likely she will be asked by Jason to return considering she married Toadie and is a fan favourite, so basically Melanie is returning.
Rebekah Elmaloglu who plays Terese has been uploading Instagram stories where people are saying they want Paul and Terese back together, indicating she wants to return.
I’ve also seen this:
The fact that episodes will air the week after they’ve aired in Network 10, on Amazon indicates Neighbours’ format could remain the same. It’s worth noting that this account corrected their Tweet and said the airdate for the new series could be as early as July.
I wonder if that's why he didn't return for the final, I remember he wasn't happy that they didn't ask him back. I always thought it was odd that Paige came back, but he didn'tWe are used to seeing episodes the same time as Australia, if not before them.

Bit of a knob isn't he. His past run in with the law he obviously didn't learn from. It's no wonder he wasn't invited back.
Neighbours finished filming in June so I wouldn't be surprised if this February incident put them off using him.I wonder if that's why he didn't return for the final, I remember he wasn't happy that they didn't ask him back. I always thought it was odd that Paige came back, but he didn't
I'm just glad it's back, it's annoying that we'll be behind, but if ratings are good they might catch us up, but at this point who cares as long as it's back.
