It’s the end of an era – Neighbours has filmed the last ever scenes on Ramsay Street today.
The fictional cul-de-sac has been at the centre of the drama for over 40 years, but today the cameras stopped rolling on the real life location that doubles as the famous homes.
Cast and crew gathered on Pin Oak Court in Vermont South, which is occupied by real residents who allow their houses to be used for exterior shots, for what is likely to be the final time.
This comes following Amazon Prime Video’s decision to pull the plug earlier this year, just two years on from announcing that they were reviving the Australian soap.
Executive producer Jason Herbison, who has overseen the show in both its formats over many years, still has hope that it can have a future.
In a statement he said: ‘Audiences all around the world have loved and embraced Neighbours for four decades and we are very proud of the huge success over the last two years including often appearing as one of the top 10 titles in the UK and the show’s first ever Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Daytime Series in 2024.
‘As this chapter closes, we appreciate and thank Amazon MGM Studios for all that they have done for Neighbours – bringing this iconic and much-loved series to new audiences globally.’
Metro understands that the last ever scenes from the serial’s production base in Nunawading will be recorded on Friday, July 11 – one week today.
On Instagram, show legend Annie Jones, who first appeared as Jane Harris in 1986, shared a photo of her in a car with Hannah Monson, who has played Nicolette Stone since the revival.
‘On our way to Ramsay St for the LAST time,’ she wrote.
Sara West, who joined as Cara Varga-Murphy in 2023, uploaded a similar picture with co-stars Naomi Rukavina and Riley Bryant, who play Cara’s wife Remi and their son JJ.
She cheekily edited Marley Williams, who plays their younger son Dex into the snap, writing: ‘Last ride down to Ramsay St.’
Meanwhile, show icon Rebekah Elmaloglou was stood at the bottom of a gloomy Pin Oak Court, adding: ‘Farewell Ramsay Street!’ to her emotional shot.
