Neighbours producer Jason Herbison has revealed that Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan will be involved in a documentary to mark the show's 30th anniversary.
Speculation has been rife over whether the former cast members, who are fondly remembered for their iconic roles as '80s couple Scott and Charlene Robinson, will be playing any part in the celebrations next year.

Herbison told Soap World: "Kylie and Jason are taking part in the 30th celebrations. They are both participating in the 30th anniversary, 90-minute [documentary] special that will be going out on Channel 10 in March.
"It's a celebration of Neighbours past and present, with lots of current and former cast members reflecting on their time in the show and provides viewers with a real insight into Neighbours and why it's been successful and why it continues to be successful."
When asked if Minogue and Donovan's characters will feature in any of the storylines on the main show, he said: "We are keeping that close to our chests!"
Herbison also revealed that there will be some major events as the milestone is celebrated in March, and the storylines will run throughout the year.

He said: "There are a series of major events taking place throughout the month of March.
"An Erinsborough festival takes place which is a cultural event and provides an umbrella to our festivities and a reason for several familiar faces from yesteryear to pass through. Within that, there will be a series of dramatic highlights.
"Thirty years is a huge milestone and we intend to celebrate it throughout the year. We are concentrating some of our big storylines around the March 18 date but we will be continuing to see big events throughout the year."
