Neighbours releases last ever cast photo ahead of soap end
It’s the end of an era.
Neighbours has released its final cast photo as the long-running TV series prepares to come to an end after nearly 40 years.
In a post on the show’s official Twitter account on Wednesday (11th May), Neighbours shared its final promotional photo of the year, with the full cast posing alongside one another.
The image, which you can see above, was captioned: "Class of 2022 #Neighbours," alongside a yellow love heart emoji.
Earlier this year, it was announced that the beloved programme was in jeopardy after UK broadcaster Channel 5 revealed it would cease airing Neighbours from this summer.
After Freemantle Media, the production company behind the soap, failed to find a new production partner, it was confirmed in March 2022 that the soap would come to an end for good.

While fans will no doubt be pleased to see the show’s current stars all together in the final cast photo, they will also be excited to welcome back some familiar faces from its past when it draws to a close later this year.
Neighbours has confirmed the return of stars Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan for the emotional finale, who'll be making a comeback after more than 30 years away from the show.
Executive producer Jason Herbison said in a statement on the soap's official Twitter account earlier in May that the programme was “thrilled” to be welcoming them back.
"Scott and Charlene are the ultimate Neighbours couple and it would not feel right to end the show without them,” Herbison commented.
"We are thrilled that Jason and Kylie have come home to play a very special part in our series finale. It has been an emotional experience for them, for us and I'm sure it will be for our viewers."
