Neighbours cast, who were originally instructed not to speak to press, have been more forthcoming since their cast meeting on Monday.
Takaya Honda told fans he had stayed with the show motivated by fan support for his LGBT role as David.
Veteran Alan Fletcher told website subscribers, “We need a hero and, maybe, one will come along.”
Favourites Jacki Woodburne to The Project and Geoff Paine spoke to Studio 10.
Executive producer Jason Herbison told Mediaweek: “We are very proud of everything Neighbours has achieved. We see the next few months as being a huge celebration for the show with a bit of everything for viewers. Any ending will be respectful of the past, the present and always open to a future.”
One online petition is at 38,000+.
Filming is currently continuing until June 10.

And the fans are thanking the show for all it’s done with the petition, sharing stories and blogs, and even sending the original theme tune back into the charts on iTunes.
It’s sitting at number 2 at the moment.
