Neighbours fans disappointed over Kylie Minogue appearance in finale

Neighbours fans have been left gutted after the long-running show finally came to an end on Friday night. Fans delighted at seeing many well-loved character return after leaving Ramsay Street in years gone by.

But some fans were left disappointed after Kylie Minogue had barely any words in the finale. The Aussie soap has been a popular fixture for British fans for 37 year.

The last episode of Neighbours aired on Friday(July 29) with a huge line-up of returning cast members from the last few decades after the show was cancelled by Channel 5.

Hollywood actor Guy Pearce, who has gone on to have a hugely successful career following his role as Mike Young in the popular soap, was one of the main actors on the screen in the final episode. His character reunited with former love Jane Harris, played by Annie Jones.

Pop legends Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan were billed as two of the big names returning and two that fans were looking forward to seeing on screen again the most. But while some viewers were delighted by their return, others were not impressed that Kylie had very little lines, Birmingham Live reports.

Jason and Kylie played characters Scott and Charlene during the 1980s. Their wedding was one of the most iconic scenes in the soap.

They returned to the street in a green mini, with Jason exclaiming: "Wow, wow, wow. Look at this - amazing. We made it!" Kylie had just three words in her return scenes though.

She smiled as she said: "Home sweet home." Some fans were worried for the star, asking if she had lost her voice.

@brussalis asked: "Is Kylie being paid per word? Or has she lost her voice? Why isn’t she speaking? #NeighboursFinale #Neighbours."

@Rustybobs echoed: "Did Kylie lose her voice or something? #Neighbours." @Wrighty2902 commented: "Has Kylie lost her voice? #Neighbours #NeighboursFinale."

@SallyAnMatthews echoed: "Has Kylie lost her voice?? x #Neighbours." Others were disappointed by the lack of dialogue for the pop icon.

@darylle_x said: "Tuned into watch the last #Neighbours & see kylie … not mutter a word. What a let doon." @jameswilsonhair added: "A little disappointed that Kylie only says a few words but still it was a wonderful ending of the show very heart warming #Neighbours #NeighboursFinale."
