Daniel Robinson

From what I've read, those contracts are weighted in the production team's favour, so if they decide to get rid of a character they can. I think the three year contracts are really just to keep the actors in the show for three years (or as long as the producers want them) rather than to guarantee them a job for three years. So that might be what's happened to Tim.

I'm annoyed because Daniel was a good character (at least until they made him boring) and Tim's a decent actor. He shouldn't have to leave just because his onscreen partner wants to go. So many of the younger characters see Neighbours as a stepping stone to Hollywood and depart as soon as they can, so to get rid of a popular young actor who doesn't want to leave is nonsensical.

I found a note from last year regarding Tim's situation and plans on Neighbours. Which shows that he was happy to be on Neighbours for the minimum of 3 years

'Tim made his screen debut as Daniel on 29 April 2014. In March 2015, Phillipps said that he was happy at*Neighbours*and would be staying for at least two more years.'

That's a shame that the producers decided not to renew his contract for at least another year as Tim wanted.

Yes, that's really awful. I could have managed without Imogen's happy ending. Never believed in their "love".

This scenario is so obviously the best and most appropriate one (if they were determined that the hotel explosion cause a tragic death) that it beggars belief that anything else was even considered. Getting rid of Daniel and leaving Matilda fatherless are very poor choices and highly unsatisfying viewing in my opinion.

I was a fan of Imogen and Daniel and did want to see a happy ending but I think they even parting as friends could have worked

I do think their wedding and exit is very rushed after Josh and Doug's deaths

Does Paul not attend the wedding?

I don't think Paul will be invited to the wedding. Daniel believes he caused the explosion

Could Daniel and Imogen return to Neighbours? Producer Jason Herbison has the answer

The happy couple bowed out in Tuesday's episode.

Sad to see Daniel Robinson and Imogen Willis leave Neighbours? We can soften the blow slightly - the door is wide open for a possible return.

Tuesday's episode (April 26) saw Daniel and Imogen get their happy ending as they tied the knot and left Ramsay Street, marking the end of their time on the show.Ariel Kaplan left her role as Imogen to pursue other projects, but Tim Phillipps shocked fans last week by revealing that it wasn't his choice to bow out as Daniel.

Speaking about the exits for the first time, Neighbours' executive producer Jason Herbison told Digital Spy: "Our plan was always for Daniel and Imogen to leave Ramsay Street on a romantic and happy note, and as with all our characters, there is always scope for them to return - this is just the first chapter.

"Tim and Ariel are exceptionally talented and we wish them all the best in the future."

Kaplan played the role of Imogen for three years, while Phillipps was on our screens as Daniel for two. Their happy departures came after the Willis clan had been rocked by the recent deaths of Josh and Doug.

"The decision wasn't mine - the producers wanted Daniel and Imogen to leave together," Phillipps told Inside Soap of his exit in a recent interview.

"So much negative stuff had happened that the show wanted something positive to come out of it - so with Imogen going, the only real option was for Daniel to go too.

"I think the writers also wanted to create a parallel with Daniel leaving Ramsay Street after getting married, just like his parents Scott and Charlene did."

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.
