Neighbours' Stefan Dennis thought soap would never end: 'those ... (Metro)

The Paul Robinson legend reflects on his time on the soap ahead of the final episode.

When people say what do you do for work, I’m compelled to say: “I go to work and pretend to be somebody else!,” that’s what my career has been, pretending to be someone else. I’d love – for the character arc – to see Paul and Terese get back together again, but I don’t know if that’s irreparable. I’ve got some serious travelling I want to undertake, and a couple of projects I’m involved in. So, then I thought: “Nope, I don’t have a favourite storyline.” I have lots of favourite memories, and storylines that I remember for being good or bad. I’d love to see a happy ending for Paul and Terese. But is that a wise thing? I get asked this all the time, and when I get asked, I used to start off with: “I’ve got a storyline”, and then after about four interviews, I’d told the same stories to four different journos! This is going to sound really weird, but there is at least a billion people on this planet that know who I am”. There are probably a lot more. I think it’s for the viewers and fans, as they’re going to want to see some familiar – and maybe even some not so familiar – faces from the past. It seems like a lot of people know you”. I sat down and said: “You know what? [laughs]. I don’t think of myself as that, but when someone like yourself says that, I’m like: “I am, aren’t I?” [laughs]. I’m one of the most recognisable television villains, and one of the most iconic soap characters in the world! [laughs]. I can think of several hundred or a thousand or more, but to try and pick one is a bit hard. One of the people I most desperately wanted to come back was Pippa [Black, who plays Elle]. I have such a soft spot for her.

Exclusive: Neighbours star on why the axed soap deserves a lifeline (digitalspy.com)

Neighbours star Stefan Dennis, who plays Paul Robinson, chats to Digital Spy ahead of the show's finale.

And I would love to be in the same shoes as John Gielgud, and be working until I pop my cogs, basically. But for the show and the industry and the 200-odd other people who are losing their job, I would love to see the show be picked up again. "I would love Paul and Terese to get back together. "Even though the show might be finishing, there's still lots of life in the characters off-screen to do all sorts of wonderful things. "But at the end of the day, we all know what it is: it's a soap. "I would dearly love the show to come back. "Another favourite period of working with people was probably the time I was working with Nat Bass [who plays Izzy] and Pippa Black [who played Elle]. The three of us – there was this triangle going on in the house. It's probably one of the most recognisable moments to me in Neighbours." "Then six months passed and it was like: 'Oh, maybe everything's not going to be okay'. And then we got the final knock. "Yes, I think the producers and Channel 5 have been incredibly good in that sense. "Yes and no, because the uncertainty had been there for pretty close to a year. "Obviously it's quite well-known now that Kylie and Jason are making a comeback, and there's going to be a few other faces.
