Sad news came in March when we found out iconic Aussie soap Neighbours is getting the axe. The show’s Twitter account said: "We are so sorry to say that after nearly 37 years and almost 9,000 episodes broadcast we have to confirm that Neighbours will cease production in June."
The tweet added: "To our amazing, loyal fans, we know this is a huge disappointment, as it is to all of us on the team. We thank you for all your messages and support and promise to end the show on an incredible high. From here on, we are celebrating Neighbours."
"Bah, what 'incredible high'?' we scoffed. How can they possibly create one out of something so incredibly sad? That was our hill and we've sat on it, sulking, since early spring, just waiting for the end.
