Fans mourned the loss of their favourite soap drama series in 2022, but by some miracle, Neighbours was revived in 2023.

Scott and Charlene
Scott and Charlene’
The “wedding of the century” where Charlene Mitchell, played my Kylie Minogue, walked down the aisle to Scott Robinson, played by Jason Donovan, aired on July 1, 1987.
Scott rocked a high and mighty mullet while Charlene wore a fitting dress for the 1980s featuring dramatic sleeves, flowers and frills.
“It was the ’80s summed up in one fabulous mess,” Nicholas Wakerley, the show’s costume designer, told TV WEEK.
The wedding’s theme song, ‘Suddenly‘ by Angry Anderson was hand-picked by Kylie, knowing it was “the one” from the moment she heard it, according to the artist.
Two million Australians watched the pair exchange vows, and in November 1988 when it aired in the UK, 19.6 million people tuned in.
Elly Conway and Mark Brennan

This wedding began with a rocky start back in 2019.
Elly, played by Jodi Anasta, was ridden with guilt after sleeping with Mark’s, played by Scott McGregor, sister Chloe behind his back after ran off and called off the wedding.
Despite the odds, the pair walked down the aisle and exchanged vows – but not without a last-minute intervention from Chloe.
No longer able to hide the secret from him, it becomes too much for Elly and she confesses to cheating on him with his sister.
While the pair stayed together, this wasn’t the only cheating scandal. Shortly afterwards, Elly fell pregnant with another man’s child, and this was Mark’s final straw.

That’s right, Toadie has been listed twice. In the Neighbours reboot, fans were shocked that Toadie would once again be tying the knot but this time to Terese, played by Rebekah Elmaloglou.
In the two year time jump, Toadie had split from Mel and Terese’s previously rekindled romance with Paul Robinson had fizzled out.
“It’s not going to be smooth sailing, how boring would that be? With Melanie and Toadie, and Paul and Terese, there’s gonna be drama,” Rebekah told Back to the Bay.
