FROM Digital Spy 8.5.05

Three of the biggest Neighbours stars have been axed in a surprise shake-up at the Aussie soap.

According to the Herald Sun, producers have decided to ditch Marisa Warrington (Sindi Watts), Kevin Harrington (David Bishop) and Marcella Russo (Lijana Bishop) in favour of fresh faces.

All three will leave the show when their current contracts expire later this year. Blair McDonough, who plays policeman Stuart Parker, is expected to join them of his own accord.

Casting has already begun to find a new family, who will move into Ramsay Street later this year. "Good looking new faces are high on the producer's secret shopping list," said the Herald Sun, "with previous acting experience not necessarily a requirement."

if Stuart is leaving it doesn't leave much hope for his brother, does it really?

None of them are a great loss in my opinion. Sindi looks like a boy and patronises Stuart, David is just dull and Lil, well she neither bothers nor interests me. Fair enough i say!

I don't really mind that they're leaving. I don't much like David but I guess Lil and Sindi can be OK sometimes.

dont want stu or sindi to go! David=Boring!! But i think they should keep lil or David so Serena can stay.
Will she be staying with Sky? Does anyone know?

I think Lil should stay - just because I prefer her to David. They better not force Serena to go because I quite like her character. If both David and Lil go, she'll probably stay with Sky and Harold anyway...hopefully!

Not really the 3 main characters. Won't really be missed I shouldnt think! If David and Lil are to go what wil happen to Serena? Wil she stay with Harold? or wil she leave too?

I think they should go, obviously the scriptwriters are struggling to find fresh storylines for them, hence paving the way for fresh (possibly young talent). I can't believe in 20 years of shows that only 1 Irishman, an Asian family have made it onto the screen. Remember the Changs? I guess they weren't very good actors. Same goes with the ones who were picked to play Rae's parents in Sunset Beach back in 1997. Anyway, the point is they need to go, question is, how?

Though I must congratulate Kevin Harrington (David Bishop) & Marcella Russo (Liljana Bishop) for their portrayals in the kidney donation storyline. I wasn't criticising their acting or anything, it's just in my opinion in order to keep Neighbours flowing for another 20 years, they need to keep reinventing the show with new and exciting characters. Characters like Karl etc would be missed, but I'm surprised he stayed on. Though I do agree with keeping a few of the long-standing cast members, just for nostalgia. Tom Oliver nearly didn't come back to Neighbours because of the shows rather stupid decision to sack him, but due to a rather large fan base all around the world he was quickly reinstated. Plus he and Harold are the basis for much of the humour. Looking forward to the Kerry Bishop lookalike storyline though. Anyway, I'm digressing from the point of my posts. What does everyone else think. And who do u think should stay/go? Answers on a postcard please!

what happened to luca? he just sort of disappeared and hasn't really been mentioned again! I find that a bit hard to believe!

David is wooden and no great loss. The pompous but well meaning fool is played already in Harold, the characters are too alike. Lil and David are already falling appart, i don't see why she has to leave? Am I the only person who really likes Sindi??

Crazy Gal 88
15-05-2005, 11:35
nah - i think Sindi is a good character.

i was wondering where they were going to live as well!
Lil and David live in Harolds house and Sindi lives in Susans!!

EXACTLY! Unless they go and live in the same block of flats as Karl and Izzy but those flats won't be big enough for a whole family. then i thought of Lou's place but Paul moves in there!

Poor Susan and Lyn, there won't have much to talk about if Lil leaves!!!!! The book club will be diminished!! Where will the "new family" live? How will they all go, and leave Serena and Sky behind?

Serean will also be leaving... their exits are all tied together... and they will leave in 'extremly dramtic' storyline in early 2006 over here...
