Ahead of the new season launching on Freevee later this year, Amazon is set to drop some classic episodes of Neighbours.
Fans were given a huge surprise late last year when it was revealed that the classic Australian soap would be back, despite being previously cancelled and wrapping up its run last summer.
Now, to get us all nostalgic, Freevee has confirmed that select classic episodes will be heading to the service later this month on February 23, as well as episodes featuring breakout stars like Margot Robbie, Russell Crowe, Kylie Minogue and Liam Hemsworth.
The launch date will also include the entire 2012 season, which featured the iconic kiss between Chris and Aidan and Toadie's proposal to Sonya.
Following on from this, the service will launch a library season of Neighbours every month, as well as a number of free ad-supported streaming channels (or FAST channels), including 'Neighbours ? Looking Back' (Channel 1) and 'Best of Neighbours' (Channel 2).
Speaking in December, Amazon's head of content and programming Lauren Anderson teased what fans can expect from the new season of Neighbours.
?We?re going to do everything we have to do ? in front of and behind the camera ? to make sure that we?re delivering a consistent series,? she said.
"We are continuing the show to at least the same level of what audiences have loved for 37 years. The most important thing to us is to make sure that those who love the show already continue to love the show."
She added: "What we?re moving through is what do we want the arc of the first season to be? How do we create a world that?s at once a continuation and also the start of something new. The storyline in a lot of ways is going to mirror what?s happening with the series. It?s a continuation, but it?s in a new place."
The revival series is set to see the return of stars including Stefan Dennis (Paul Robinson), Jackie Woodburne (Susan Kennedy), Alan Fletcher (Karl Kennedy) and Ryan Moloney (Toadie Rebecchi).
Neighbours returns in the second half of 2023 with new episodes streaming free on Amazon Freevee in the UK and US. Network 10 will retain first-run rights in Australia for the new series.
