Alan Fletcher ‘fought back tears’ on Neighbours set

OHMYGOSSIP — Alan Fletcher felt overwhelmed with emotion during his last day on ‘Neighbours’.
The iconic Australian soap has been axed after 37 years on the air, and Alan – who played Karl Kennedy – admits he had to fight back tears on the last day of filming.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “It was very hard to fight back tears as we were saying the dialogue for what was going to be the last moments of the show.
“There were hundreds of people in the studio to watch that final piece of filming. We had some speeches, I said a few words. There were some tears. There were some celebrations.”
Some of the show’s former cast members returned to shoot scenes for the finale, including Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan.
And Alan explained that everyone who was asked to appear in the show was keen to lend their support for the finale.
He shared: “One of my favourites was Guy Pearce. There wasn’t a single person who was asked to do something for the end, who was available, who said no.
“Everybody wanted to help out.”
Stefan Dennis, who has played Paul Robinson since the soap started in 1985, recently revealed his experience of his final day on set.
The 63-year-old actor also confessed to being overwhelmed by emotion.
He said: “I sort of closed the studio door behind me on my very last scene, my very last dialogue scene and … I suddenly surprised myself by getting incredibly emotional.
“I just kept to myself and went to my dressing room … so I’m keeping a very low profile today. I think I’ll just be an absolute mess if I sort of hang around too long.”
