Neighbours boss Jason Herbison has teased what's in store for Elly Conway's final scenes as actor Jodi Anasta bows out of the long-running Australian series.
Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy, the executive producer appeared to hint that Elly is set to leave Ramsey Street for more of a low-key reason, in contrast to the more drama-filled storylines she's been a part of up until now.
"Elly is one of those great Neighbours characters who has literally been through everything – she's loved, she's lost, she's become a mum and she's fallen for all the wrong people," Herbison explained. "We were mindful of this when plotting her exit."
Following on from that, he seemingly went on to suggest that the show won't be killing Elly off – as soaps typically love to do – as they're leaving the door "wide open for her to return" if Anasta ever decides to make a comeback.
"With so many connections of her still on the street, I can see that happening one day," he concluded.
Back in April, Anasta claimed that her character's departure storyline is set to be "very unpredictable," and shot down the fan theory that she's going to be sent to prison.
"I remember I spoke to the producers six months ago about the start of Elly's departure storyline," she said. "Endgame and Finn's death were among the things that came up. Now for Elly to be in this scary position in the aftermath of that, it's exciting and really intense.
"Most people think that Elly will go to jail and then I leave. It's not that!"
Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
