Neighbours Finale Shocker: Fan Favourite Toadie Won't Return
30 Nov
Summary
- Toadie actor Ryan Moloney unavailable for final Neighbours episodes.
- Showrunner confirms returning faces for finale, hints at Easter eggs.
- Final storyline focuses on Ramsay Street residents' housing decisions.
Long-time Neighbours star Ryan Moloney, known for his role as Toadie, will be absent from the show's concluding episodes airing next week. Executive producer Jason Herbison stated that Moloney was unavailable to reprise his character, despite invitations extended to past cast members. The finale aims to include returning faces from the show's recent seasons and will feature subtle nods to fans.
The storyline for the finale will see Ramsay Street residents grappling with a freeway development proposal, forcing them to decide between staying or relocating. This plotline leaves the door open for a potential future revival of the beloved soap, even though its production studios have been dismantled.
Neighbours faced cancellation twice, most recently after Amazon Freevee's rescue proved temporary. Attempts to secure appearances from major A-list alumni like Margot Robbie and Russell Crowe for the finale have reportedly failed, in contrast to the successful 2022 finale which saw stars like Kylie Minogue return.
