The Australian soap star, who has played Susan Kennedy on the show since 1994, appeared on Lorraine alongside co-star Alan Fletcher this morning to tease the final episode of Neighbours, which has been confirmed for 29th July<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI cannot tell you how emotional it was,\u201d Woodburne said on filming the finale.<\/p>\n \u201cThe challenge for all of us filming that very last episode was that the scene is actually a very joyful, happy scene, but we were all feeling so emotional.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe were like a second away from tears the whole time,\u201d she added. \u201cSo it was a huge acting challenge to not bring our own sadness and emotional context into the scene because as I say, it was a happy thing. But I was thrilled to be given that opportunity to kind of narrate that last scene.\u201d<\/p>\n Alan Fletcher, who plays Dr. Karl on the soap, went on to speak about Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan\u2019s highly-anticipated return to Neighbours, revealing that \u201cit\u2019s wonderful to see them\u201d as well as Guy Pearce (Mike Young) and Peter O\u2019Brien (Shane Ramsay), who also started out on the show.<\/p> \u201cThey all said to me that they were delighted to come back because they have such gratitude towards Neighbours,\u201d he added. \u201cThey recognise the fact that Neighbours helped to train them and gave them huge success in the industry. So they all just said, \u2018Yep, of course we\u2019ll come back\u2019, which is fabulous.\u201d<\/p>\n Neighbours was cancelled<\/a> earlier this year shortly after Channel 5 decided to drop the show from its line-up.<\/p>\n Neighbours\u2019 final episode premieres on Friday 29th July at 9pm on Channel 5. <\/strong>Check out more of our Soaps<\/a> coverage or visit our TV Guide<\/a> to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p><\/div> <\/section> The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013 subscribe now<\/a> and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
