    I haven't watched Neighbours for nearly 30 years but the younger generation will never understand how massive this show was and what a big part of life it was growing up in the late 80s, early 90s..
    Thank you for the memories.

    Fantastic. I was looking for this very interview, and see it was uploaded just a few days back. I saw this interview at the time. I must have had the day off school. Watching at the time, I guessed Kylie and Jason were likely a real life item. I also noticed Danny Ramsay wasn't there, and wondered what was going on, there. Of course Shane Ramsay wasn't, either (but both were still in the UK run).

      She looked so healthy full of energy during the neighbours days. You wouldn’t think she’d pass a couple years later. Until the last episodes where she did look frail. But here she also looks amazing, so full of life, you wouldn’t think it. Only 6 months?!?!😧 I love her, a true legend and part of what made neighbours so great these days. She’s probs my fave character. I bet the other cast members were so heartbroken to hear of her passing.
      Edit: read the description. If it really was Oct 1987, it really was 6 months after, she passed😓

      I am trying to point out that everything made by the bbc turns to crap, but when they have a good program offered to them they bin it off when it is still popular. I know channel 5 has struggled to finance overseas programs and I reckon more will have to go in order for channel five to save itself from going off air completely.

    Wow! I’ve never seen them like this, outside of playing their characters 😂❤ so weird and amazing 😯😂 Myra de Groot seemed animated and lively as herself too:) I love this clip, you can see how close the cast were and it showed in their acting. Some of the other cast members maybe had left or weren’t there at the time or were there but not in this interview. Wish we could have seen Daphne Zoe davis max uncle tom Lucy Danny Shane Harold mangle, Jane, Nikki Dennison Laura Dennison…. Charlene’s bro Henry and grandparents, the list goes on…. I’d always wanted this type of footage of the old cast out of the scenes 🌟 it’s not as weird with K and J because I’ve seen many interviews with them from those times. love the way how Jim is next to Paul Scott together with Charlene and the best is seeing Eileen next to her Desmond😂At the very beginning you can see her holding on to him like a dear mother😂 I really wish most of all that Vivean Gray could have been there😂😂 I’ve always wanted to see this type of footage thank you for uploading.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ there are actually other vids of cast members of the 80s, but this is the best, partly cuz Myra De Groot is there!!!
