Neighbours fans elated over Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan ‘returning’ to soap

Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan are reportedly set to reprise their roles on Neighbours after the soap’s cancellation was announced – and fans are over the moon.

In March, it was confirmed that the show had been axed after nearly 40 years, leaving dedicated fans heartbroken as they prepare to bid farewell to a programme cherished for decades.

However, one promising piece of news has been revealed, amid reports that Kylie and Jason are returning as cherished characters Charlene and Scott Robinson, characters they originally played in the 1980s in the early stages of their careers.

One fan reacted to the prospect of the actors coming back with sheer unbridled joy, tweeting: ‘OMG OMG OMG.’

‘I will cry tears of joy if Kylie and Jason return to Neighbours,’ someone else wrote, sharing a gif of Kylie’s character Charlene on her wedding day.

‘OMG OMG OMG I’M NOT OKAY!!!’ one fan exclaimed, with another dubbing the update: ‘fantastic news’.

Someone else wrote: ‘I’m so ready for this!!!!’ while another Twitter user said that while they haven’t watched Neighbours ‘in years’, when they were young, they ‘absolutely loved’ it.

‘Scott and Charlene were everything lol. This would be incredible if Kylie and Jason did return,’ they added.

One person aptly wrote: ‘This is awesome Kylie and Jason will put an end to the Neighbours legacy in the most perfect way as they both could possibly do and enjoy what legacy they both started that captured the UK like no other TV drama could. It will be awesome.’
