Donovan rules out Neighbours return
Actor JASON DONOVAN has ruled out ever returning to Australian soap opera NEIGHBOURS, the show that launched his career.
Donovan found fame in the 1980s starring opposite a then-unknown Kylie Minogue in the hit TV show, and he went on to enjoy a successful pop and stage career.
Over the years, both Donovan and Minogue have been rumoured to be planning a return to the drama series for a cameo appearance - but Donovan has now ruled out any Neighbours comeback.
He tells This Morning, "I think my answer to that is it's sort of like wearing a pair of old shoes. They are a bit smelly, there is sentimental value in there as well - you don't know whether to throw them away or not. But Neighbours is a wonderful Australian export and I'm very proud to have been part of it. It changed my life."
Asked by host Phillip Schofield whether he would consider returning, Donovan replied: "No."
