Jason Donovan would return to ‘Neighbours’ if Guy Pearce and Kylie Minogue also made comebacks.
The 51-year-old star shot to fame as Scott Robinson from 1986 to 1989 alongside Kylie (Charlene Robinson) and Guy (Mike Young), and he thinks he would only have "the right sort of feeling" about a return to the Australian soap if he was part of a "group package".
He said: "I’d do it if Guy [Pearce] and Kylie [Minogue] said, ‘Let’s do a couple of days back on ‘Neighbours’.’
"It’d have to be done as a group package for it to have the right sort of feeling.
"I always get asked about going back on the show – you never know, but at the moment that’s not the plan."
Whether Jason reprises his role as Scott or not, he looks set to return to the set in the coming months to see his daughter Jemma Donovan after she joined the cast as quick-witted and complicated character Harlow Robinson.
He is quoted by News.com.au as saying: "I’m certainly going to go out to the ‘Neighbours’ set and visit Jemma when I’m back, because I haven’t done that since I left."
Jemma recently said: "I was so happy and very honoured to be a part of a series which has been enjoyed by generations.
"The timing was also perfect because since my previous role on ‘Spotless’ in 2015, I stopped going to auditions and acting because I wanted to finish my schooling, get my A levels and see what I wanted to do after that so it’s great how everything has fallen into place."
Jason added: "’Neighbours’ is an incredible learning curve for any young actor.
"It’s become an institution and I’m so grateful for my time on Ramsay Street.
"There are so many great memories for me looking back, and to be honest this is Jemma’s moment."
