\n\n

With such an extensive list of returning familiar faces released way ahead of Neighbours\u2019 big finale<\/a>, you may have thought you knew all there was to know about the beloved soap\u2019s farewell scenes. But the show pulled out all the stops to surprise us, with a selection of cameos that were not revealed ahead of transmission.<\/p>\n

It was a chance for many stars to pay tribute to Ramsay Street, as the episode focused on the wedding of Toadie Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney) and Melanie Pearson (Lucinda Cowden) which made way for some very welcome messages. So, while you\u2019re catching your breath and wiping your eyes, here\u2019s a look at every unexpected character who popped up tonight.<\/p>

1. Madge Bishop (Anne Charleston)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>While an appearance from actress Charleston wasn\u2019t made official, it was heavily rumoured around the time Neighbours made its final announcements of the return of fellow stars, like Margot Robbie and Delta Goodrem.<\/p>\n<p>Madge was seen in the closing moments in spirit, as mainstay Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne) imagined what the late residents of Ramsay Street would look like if they had survived. It was great to see a glimpse of Madge sat by husband Harold\u2019s (Ian Smith) side, even if it was only for a moment.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Doug Willis (Terence Donovan)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<iframe title=\""We\" will=\"\" miss=\"\" you=\"\" doug=\"\" width=\""200"\" height=\""113"\" src=\""https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aVbDSEQHI6I?feature=oembed"\" frameborder=\""0"\" allow=\""accelerometer;\" autoplay=\"\" clipboard-write=\"\" encrypted-media=\"\" gyroscope=\"\" picture-in-picture=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p>One Donovan leaves, and then two turn up at once! Yes, Terence Donovan is the father of Jason who also made a comeback as Scott Robinson, and the grandfather of actress Jemma who departed Neighbours as alter ego Harlow not so long ago.<\/p>\n<p>Donovan Senior portrayed Doug Willis, who died on-screen in 2016 during The Lassiters\u2019s hotel explosion. Doug was seen alongside Madge, smiling away in an imagined look at how he might have appeared on Neighbours in the present day.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Lance Wilkinson (Andrew Bibby)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As Toadie and Mel sat down to watch a series of well wishes compiled by Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher), Lance\u2019s contribution included a cheeky nod at his past relationship with Amy Greenwood (Jacinta Stapleton).<\/p>\n<p>Lance congratulated the happy couple and mentioned that there was still time to make it up the aisle with Amy \u2013\u00a0and later, she told her friends that she had found a donor to help her get pregnant. Toadie was convinced it was someone they all knew, so perhaps Lance and Amy were left with a shared secret!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Tad Reeves (Jonathon Dutton)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We got a glimpse of Toadie\u2019s cousin Tad as he playfully complained that he didn\u2019t get the chance to DJ at the wedding. Dutton was reprising his role for the first time since 2002. At the time, Harold had been led to believe that Tad had died, only for it to have been a case of mistaken identity.\u00a0Happily, Tad is still alive and well, and he joined in with the task of convincing Toadie not to move away!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Stuart Parker (Blair McDonough)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A fan-favourite back in his hey-day, Stuart immediately made a nostalgic reference to the House of Trouser, the name that he, Toadie and fellow housemate Connor O\u2019Neill (Patrick Harvey) gave number 30 back in the early 2000s.<\/p>\n<p>Last seen in 2018 when he paid Toadie a visit, naturally Stuart was among those hoping his mate would stick around!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Sky Mangel (Stephanie McIntosh)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As Toadie\u2019s old pal, as well as Harold\u2019s granddaughter and Mel\u2019s former step-daughter, Sky joined a host of faces who were intent on reminding the pair that Ramsay Street wouldn\u2019t be the same without them.<\/p>\n<p>With Sky\u2019s dad Joe (Mark Little) making a second cameo too, it wouldn\u2019t have felt right without a few words from Sky \u2013 and it was great to see McIntosh in her memorable role one last time,<\/p>\n<h2><strong>7. Sharon Davies (Jessica Muschamp)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cHey Mel, it\u2019s me, Shazza!\u201d said Sharon as she congratulated her old pal on her nuptials. Sharon was last seen in 1990 when she departed to move to New Zealand with her sister Bronwyn. Sharon\u2019s reappearance marks 34 years since her debut. It\u2019s a testament to Neighbours that so many former stars of the show have been happy to join the tributes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>8.
