Neighbours' final episode is just days away from airing, so it seems fitting that the cast are reflecting on their time in Erinsborough ? and what might lie ahead for them in the future.
One of those stars is Rebekah Elmaloglou, who plays Terese Willis on the Aussie soap, with the actress admitting that she isn't quite ready to quit soapland just yet.
Ahead of viewers' last ever trip to Ramsay Street, which will air in the UK next Friday (July 29), Rebekah revealed that she has "always wanted to play an Aussie cop".
And she's hopeful that a series in the UK would welcome her aboard to do just that.
"I love British cop shows," said, angling for a Happy Valley stint. "My husband and I are addicted to Happy Valley with Sarah Lancashire. We love those sorts of shows, so I'd love to play a detective or a cop in one of those types of shows."
Rebekah is also open to joining a British soap, too, calling the UK's love of all things soap "massive".
"They've got some soaps in England, so to me they've got a huge, popular idea, massive," she said. "Go and work on a soap in the UK, why not?"
As for which fictional town she'd like to pay a visit to, the Neighbours icon is keeping an open mind, happy to visit anywhere from Walford to Weatherfield.
"I don't know which one, they're all amazing ? and they've all got such longevity like Home and Away and Neighbours had. There's quite a few, isn't there?
"There's EastEnders, Coronation Street, Hollyoaks, and Emmerdale. I mean, it's just amazing. I don't know, whoever would have me really!"
