Elle Robinson

LOGIE nominee Pippa Black (left) is the latest star to be saying goodbye to Ramsay St and the cast and crew of Neighbours.

Black, who plays Lucinda ``Elle'' Robinson on the long-running soap, was hailed as one of the show's brightest young stars and received a Most Popular New Female Talent nomination at the 2006 Logie Awards.

Executive producer Susan Bower said Black was a ``wonderful actress'' and a ``beautiful person''.
``We've anticipated that Pip would want to spread her wings and have been incredibly privileged to have had her with us for the past three years,'' Bower said.

Black's departure comes hot on the heels of co-star Brett Tucker who is leaving the show to act in the US.
Bower said it was ``coincidental'' that Tucker and Black were leaving the show at the same time and said it was common for young actors to want to take their careers further overseas.

``People naturally want to explore new opportunities and actors are the same, both are heading overseas,'' Bower said.
She said casting for new male and female actors had begun.

yeah he better not! :angry:

First the Timmins and Stieger, then Sky and Boyd, Pepper and Adam, then Janae. Then Rosie and Frazer, then Ned, Carmella and Oliver. To be truthfully honest all my favourite characters in the last two years have all gone, and now Elle, the best one left is leaving. Why? Neighbours is going to be so dead without her!

I agree, soon its gonna be like a whole new show

Former Neighbours star Pippa Black has revealed that she would not rule out a return to her role as Elle Robinson.

The 27-year-old quit the Ramsay Street soap last year after playing Elle since 2005.

Asked by TV Week whether she would ever consider a comeback, Black replied: "You never say never. I absolutely loved my character and I carry a little bit of Elle around with me."

On whether she ever regrets leaving, the actress commented: "No regrets. I'll always have really great memories of working there. I had a great time and I worked with such fantastic people that I've remained in touch with. When you work so many hours in a week, you see those people more than you see your other friends and family!"

Black went on to name former screen father Stefan Dennis (Paul) as one Neighbours colleague she remains in contact with.

She said: "I went and had dinner with dad the other day. That's what I call Stefan Dennis! We caught up and it's funny because you miss them when you don't see them all the time, but then when you do see them, it feels like no time has passed."

That's nice. :) I always liked Elle with Lucas. They were great together!

elle was a great character, there surely is scope for her to come back. maybe older and a bit wiser? maybe she could save the family business and sort andrew out!

I love to see her back for Lucas I loved them together

elle and leo behind paul's ex wives returning, is elle returning?

Neighbours cameo for Elle Robinson as Pippa Black reprises the role after 10 years
Another familiar face returns.

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/nei...black-returns/

Neighbours has revealed another blast from the past, as Paul Robinson's daughter Elle will be making a return appearance next week.

Pippa Black has reprised her role as Elle for a brief cameo, nearly ten years after she bowed out from the soap. She was a show regular between 2005 and 2009.

Elle's return ties in with Paul's ex-wives storyline, as she's revealed as the true mastermind behind his current misery.

After coming face-to-face with Gail Lewis, Lyn Scully, Rebecca Napier and Christina Alessi, a nervous Paul discovers that Elle has been secretly plotting against him the whole time.

The big revelation takes place in Queensland, where Paul is supposed to be marrying Terese Willis. However, he cancels his wedding after crossing paths with Christina there – convinced the universe is sending him constant signs to call things off.

Fortunately, Christina's twin sister Caroline is on hand to get things back on track, disapproving of her sibling's tactics.

Under instructions from Caroline, a sheepish Christina comes clean with Paul and Terese by revealing that all of the ex-wives turning up was no coincidence. It turns out that they all arrived after being coerced by Elle.

Confused over why Elle would be pulling the strings from afar, Paul contacts his daughter via Skype and demands an explanation.

Elle is unapologetic over her actions, explaining that she wanted to break Paul out of his toxic cycle with women. Although she didn't necessarily want to sabotage his happiness, she did want to push his buttons as a test for both him and Terese.

Shocked to realise he allowed himself to be manipulated, Paul begs Terese to take him back and forge ahead with their plans to marry. As they tie the knot, does a happy future lie ahead for Paul and the latest Mrs Robinson?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, September 9 and Tuesday, September 10 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Elle Robinson is returning, but the character has been recast. Elise Jansen will be taking over from Pippa Black.

From Neighbours Official instagram:

"Elle Robinson returns!

Now played by Elise Jansen, Paul's daughter will soon be arriving on Ramsay Street, but what's brought her back after all this time?

Elle's dramatic storyline is set to take us right up to our nail biting finale... 👀"

Neighbours recasts key character 16 years after exit from Ramsay Street
She may just have one more scheme to run before the soap bows out.

Neighbours is recasting a classic character in time for the grand finale.

The Australian soap is expected to bow out with a new final episode airing later this year and has just announced an exciting return.

Taking to Instagram, Neighbours has shared that Paul Robinson's daughter Elle is returning to Ramsay Street ? 16 years after she first left Erinsborough.

Previously played by Pippa Black, who cameoed in 2019 and 2022, the character will now be portrayed by Elise Jansen.

"Elle Robinson returns!" Neighbours' Instagram post shared earlier today.

"Now played by Elise Jansen, Paul's daughter will soon be arriving on Ramsay Street, but what's brought her back after all this time?" the caption continues, teasing some serious twists in store for the finale.

"Elle's dramatic storyline is set to take us right up to our nailbiting finale..." the post concludes.

The daughter of Gail Robinson, who divorced Paul while pregnant, Elle made her Erinsborough debut with siblings Cameron and Robert in 2005.

Elle has been known to run a scheme or two during her time on Ramsay Street. A talent for manipulation, Elle wreaked havoc on the street with her plotting, which included faking a terminal illness to get her own way.

Played by Black, Elle departed Ramsay Street in 2009. She then returned in guest appearances in 2019 and 2022.

Last week, the cast of Neighbours shared their emotional reactions to filming for the last time.

The Aussie soap first ended in 2022 before being revived by Amazon's ad-supported service Freevee. As the show has been cancelled once again, the actors are going into their final weeks on set.

Jane Harris actor Annie Jones shared a selfie to her Instagram, showing herself and her on-screen daughter Hannah Monson (Nicolette) going to set.

While production will stop soon, the last episode is set to air in December.

"I am ending it in a way that sets up future chapters," boss Jason Herbison recently told The Age. "It'll be very hopeful and optimistic, but it will be different [from] last time. Most importantly, it absolutely leaves the door open for a few different ways the show could come back in the future.

Neighbours releases new episodes from Mondays to Thursdays for free on Amazon Freevee and Prime Video in the UK and US. In Australia, the show airs from Mondays to Thursdays at 4pm on Channel 10, with a 6.30pm repeat screening on 10 Peach Comedy.

I do see fun chemistry potential with felix and elle
