Margot Robbie, Delta Goodrem, Jesse Spencer, Kym Valentine and Carla Bonner will appear in the final episode of 'Neighbours'. Robbie featured in the long-running Aussie soap from 2008 to 2011 as Donna Freedman and has since gone on to star in major Hollywood films including 'The Wolf of Wallstreet', 'I, Tonya' and 'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood'.

Network 10 said Robbie's return to 'Neighbours' will be a "small cameo role", reports Variety. ARIA Award-winning Delta Goodrem will also return to say goodbye to the show. McGarvey noted that 'Neighbours' is an iconic programme and the Australian screen production sector will be worse off when it's gone.

"It's a devastating loss for that skills gathering. And people often start out on those big shows," she said. "No matter what way you cut it, 'Neighbours' is still a loss and one that we're very very sad about. We really didn't want it to happen." Daniel Monaghan, Paramount ANZ's senior vice president of content and programming, told Variety Australia that things hadn't gone to plan.

"When Fremantle told us they weren't going to be able to get the funding out of the UK - we needed that funding. Everyone needed that UK partner to keep the show. It was incredibly disappointing. It does good numbers on 10 Peach. It's got an incredibly loyal fan base. It's been around for almost 40 years. (It's) a stalwart. "But unfortunately when they couldn't find a partner, it just wasn't a viable proposition for us. And we were really hoping for a long time... But it hasn't worked out the way that we would have liked."

It is expected that more former 'Neighbours' stars will appear on Thursday night in the final 90-minute episode which will screen on its recent home, multi-channel, 10 Peach, as well as the primary Channel 10.
