JASON HERBISON STEPS DOWN, REPLACEMENT CONFIRMED

It has been confirmed that Jason Herbison, who took the helm of Australian soap Neighbours at the end of 2013, has stepped down after just under one year in the role. Newcomer SoapAddict has been confirmed to take over as executive producer in the coming weeks. He released a brief statement following the announcement.

"I would firstly like to thank Jason for his fantastic work over the past year, there is no doubt that Neighbours is back at it's best. The focus on family units has returned with the introductions of the Willis' and Turners, which has been fantastic viewing alongside the oldies like Karl and Susan. However, I want to make my own mark on the show when I take over and hope to continue to make Neighbours the most unmissable soap on the box!"

SoapAddict's first episode airs Monday 1st December 2014.
Episodes will be posted at the UK pace from Channel 5, I hope you all enjoy.

Thank you both very much.

I've spent a week planning and writing, so there will hopefully be some news and spoilers this weekend and the first episode will be posted on Monday. (I won't be taking a break over December/January like the real Neighbours does).

So excited for this because I know how brilliantly you'll write it, and its a very unique decision to choose Neighbours to do a fantasy version on. Good luck! and can't wait to hear more plans.

Thanks again Lauren, casting announcement coming up.

(I must say it's very challenging to find Australian actors)
