Margot Robbie’s Neighbours stint is one of those being resurrected after Amazon Freevee picked up the axed soap.

The much-loved series was cancelled in 2022 after 37 years, and bowed out with a huge finale that saw old favourites like Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue return to Ramsay Street.

However, Amazon Freevee stepped in and will deliver a new series and will also be showing celebrated former episodes.

The streaming service has now confirmed that a raft of episodes will launch on 23 February, including all episodes from the 2012 season.

This includes the memorable first kiss between Aidan and Chris (Bob Morley and James Mason), Toadie’s (Ryan Moloney) heart-warming proposal to Sonya (Eve Morey) and Lucas (Scott Major) and Vanessa’s (Alin Sumarwata) dramatic wedding day.

In addition the service will launch a variety of episodes featuring big stars like Robbie, who played Donna Freedman from 2008 to 2011.

Russell Crowe, Minogue, Donovan, Guy Pearce, Natalie Imbruglia and Liam Hemsworth will also be on screen in some of the old instalments.

After the initial drop, a library season of Neighbours will launch on the service every month until the show’s hotly anticipated premiere later this year.

The soap wrapped in July last year but in November a tweet from its official account announced: "Breaking News from Erinsborough! Neighbours will return for a brand-new series next year exclusively on @AmazonFreevee, alongside thousands of episodes from previous seasons to stream as you please."

The post included a video featuring Ramsay Street stars Jackie Woodburne, Alan Fletcher, Ryan Moloney and Stefan Dennis as their characters Susan and Karl Kennedy, Toadfish Rebecchi and Stefan Dennis confirmed that they would return.
