Neighbours teaser trailer<\/h3>\n

Neighbours\u00a0legend Stefan Dennis, who has played the wily Paul Robinson on and off in the show since the very first episode on March 18, 1985, \u201cdidn\u2019t really care\u201d if the show came back following its cancellation last year.<\/p>\n

While fans were thrilled that Amazon\u00a0Freevee stepped in to save the legendary Australian soap after it was axed in July 2022, Stefan, 64, didn\u2019t share their excitement.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Express.co.uk and other media ahead of the show\u2019s eagerly anticipated relaunch he said: \u201cPeople keep saying the word excitement and I don’t relate to it as exciting.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was certainly interesting [that it was saved] and great because we had a job again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut more than anything and this sounds really corny, but more than anything, I was so grateful, I’m being absolutely honest here, because I’d gone into semi-retirement so I really didn’t, for me, I didn’t care whether the show was coming back or not because I was okay.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I was, and without trying to sound too magnanimous, I was so pleased that the show was coming back for the industry because people didn’t realise what a gaping hole it left,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot just\u2026in the audience’s eyes, that afternoon slot that was filled so comfortably for them was suddenly gone, but the industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe industry didn’t realise until the show actually finished, and they went, \u2018Oh my god we don’t get this anymore. We don’t get that anymore. We can’t do this. There’s no training ground anymore,\u2019 he intimated.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so the fact that the show has been brought back for all of those reasons is absolutely fantastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd it’s so great that all my dear, dear, dear friends have all got jobs again,\u201d he enthused.<\/p>\n

Stefan first departed\u00a0Neighbours\u00a0in 1992 before returning for a short stint in 1993.<\/p>\n

He then returned to the role full-time in late 2004 and played Paul until what was supposed to be the finale.<\/p>\n

The teatime soap returned in spectacular fashion on September 18 and time jumped two years from that episode meaning that there were plenty of surprises for fans.<\/p>\n

New episodes of Neighbours stream on Amazon Freevee Monday to Thursday.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
