Neighbours has confirmed that Sonya Rebecchi's final episode will air in less than two weeks' time.

The popular character is bowing out of the Aussie soap in a tragic exit storyline following a nine-year stint.

It's now been revealed that Sonya's heartbreaking last scenes will be broadcast on Tuesday, March 5.

Sonya's final moments in the show will revolve around a trip to the seaside for her, Toadie (Ryan Moloney) and the kids.

An advanced synopsis released on online TV guides has revealed that Sonya will die in the arms of her beloved husband when the day takes a fateful turn.

Sonya was diagnosed with stage four cancer in January and was later told by Karl Kennedy that the illness was terminal.

More recently, we've seen Sonya's son Callum return as part of the storyline. Sonya's sister Jade Mitchell will also be back next week.

Eve joined the cast of Neighbours in 2009, becoming a regular in 2010. She filmed her final scenes as Sonya in December last year.

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
