Neighbours has announced that two icons of the show, from very different eras, are set to make a return for the show’s upcoming 40th anniversary celebrations.
Already, we know that Toadie and Melanie will be coming back for a short stint after their recent departures and it was recently confirmed that former lovers Tess Bell and Darcy Tyler would be back in Erinsborough, a true throwback for fans from the early 2000s.


In a real twist, the show has also confirmed that Anne Charleston would be returning in the show’s anniversary year as part of Harold Bishop’s exit storyline. Anne is best know for playing Madge Bishop on the show, although he character died 24 years ago, she has made 2 returns since. Neighbours has not confirmed if Anne will be reprising the role of Madge or if she will returning as a new character.

The latest returnees to be announced are relations of Madge, as the Ramsays come back to Ramsay Street.
Shane Ramsay, one of the show’s original cast from 1985, will once again return to the street named after his family. After departing Erinsborough in 1987, Shane returned for the 2022 finale and was recently back in Erinsborough with son Max Ramsay. As we see Max’s mysterious past currently starting to unravel, will that be the reason why Shane needs to come back to check on his son?

The other announced returnee is not a Ramsay by name, but definitely is a Ramsay by nature! The daughter of Gemma Ramsay and Adam Willis, we last saw Roxy Willis in the show’s 2022 finale, heavily pregnant after marrying Kyle Canning.

Some of Roxy’s earliest scenes saw her dancing on the bar with flaming shots in The Waterhole… has married life calmed Roxy down or is she still the feisty firecracker we know and love… and what is bringing her back to Erinsborough?
With Max, Shane and Roxy back in town, are we set to see even more Ramsays return?
The show’s 40th anniversary is on March 15th and we expect to hear about plenty more returning characters before then! Keep checking back to Ramsay Street UK for the latest news and don’t forget to watch Neighbours on Amazon Prime Video, with new episodes airing from 7am, Monday-Thursday.
