Dr Karl Kennedy actor Alan Fletcher recently spoke with The Mirror<\/a> about his last days on set for the iconic soap, saying that \u201cit was very hard to fight back tears as we were saying the dialogue for what was going to be the last moments of the show\u201d.<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cThere were hundreds of people in the studio to watch that final piece of filming. We had some speeches, I said a few words. There were some tears. There were some celebrations.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s unsurprising that the final days on set were emotional for Fletcher, as the actor has been a member of the show\u2019s cast since 1994, alongside Jackie Woodburne who plays his character\u2019s wife, Susan.<\/p>\n The final episodes of the soap are set to feature the highly-anticipated returns of some veteran characters played by, amongst others, Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Guy Pearce.<\/p>\n Of the returning cast, Fletcher said: \u201cOne of my favourites was Guy Pearce. There wasn\u2019t a single person who was asked to do something for the end, who was available, who said no. Everybody wanted to help out.\u201d<\/p>\n Exact details of how the final episodes will play out have been under lock and key, although Jason Donovan recently hinted that an apparent leak detailing how his return would play out could be \u201cclose\u201d to the truth<\/a>.<\/p> Meanwhile, Stefan Dennis, who has been playing villainous businessman Paul Robinson on and off since the show began, recently confirmed that his character will be one of the three to feature in Neighbours\u2019 final ever scene<\/a>.<\/p>\n Neighbours\u2019 final episode premieres on Friday 29th July at 9pm on Channel 5.\u00a0<\/strong>Check out more of our\u00a0Soaps<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
