Guy Pearce | Neighbours

[@woohooboy]

Guy Pearce was the star in the finale. Rather than just give him a scene or two, the producers made his character a focal point and Pearce stepped up and delivered. As fun as it was to see Kylie and Jason make an appearance, it amounted to nothing more than cameos so having Mike be front and centre alongside Jane (Annie Jones) was a special gift to longtime fans of the series.

[@BobbyWgn]

Kylie and Jason only had half a day to filn

[@garyl5128]

Absolutely. He and Annie Jones made the finale even more nostalgic and amazing than it would have been otherwise. I loved it. Made me really miss those 80s episodes because they were so much fun, so now I'm watching some of those episodes again on KZbin. If they were being re-run from the start somewhere, I'd watch them again. It's been 30 years so it's not like I remember everything!

[@victoriacarpenter2657]

I stopped watch years ago but love seeing the old cast members and I would watch from the start in a heartbeat... just took me back to being a kid in the 80's again

[@TheStevenWhiting]

Kylie and Jason apparently didn't want their presence to take away from the other cast.

[@KingoftheRoad-2023]

The STAR WAS Jane and will always be JANE

[@StevieWyatt]

Absolutely love Guy Pearce for putting his Hollywood ego aside and getting really stuck in for the finale. Not just a cameo, but he really put a lot into it and made it a great show and fitting end. Superb.

[@sharonkendrick6249]

What a lovely and humble man. So lovely to hear how much he regards Neighbours. He was wonderful in the finale.

[@mikejanson1939]

He is one of the nicest guys u can meet. He use to come into my work all the time at a bp servo in geelong. His favourite chocolate was a king sized TimeOut. One time I asked him if he would sign something for me. He said he will come in tomorrow. He came in and asked if I had the stuff. I gave him a Priscilla Queen of the Desert dvd and an old Neighbours card of him. He said can’t believe u kept this for so long. He signed them both and made me very happy. He doesn’t come to the store anymore since he moved to America/Netherlands. He is a great GUY!!!!

He is now living in The Netherlands though!

Back in the day he was playing with a girl under the water at nunawading swimming pool in front of 40 children. So don't talk to us about this idiot lunatic. He was an ego maniac.

[@lawrencejhutchinson]

I can see that he's a genuinely nice bloke! Some famous people are disappointing, but some are as nice in real life as they appear on TV. I was lucky to have good chats with Michael Palin, Stephen Hendry, and Phil Lynott back in the day.

[@MandaWard71]

His & Jane's reunion was THE storyline of the show. Brilliant ❤️ 📚 👏 ❤️ 📚

[@TimmysCreativeCelebrationHub]

Great seeing a Hollywood A-Lister speaking fondly about his roots/where he started out.

[@yval21]

Honestly, the highlight of the finale. He seems like a lovely bloke on and off screen. 💕👍🏽🇦🇺

[@dreyn7780]

You should have been at the nunawading swimming pool where he was playing with a girl under the water in front of 40 children. He's disgusting. They should have gone somewhere private instead.

[@emzt5289]

He was amazing coming back to do a whole storyline. Never forgot his roots.

[@Littlemisschatterbox]

What a lovely ending for Mike to end up with his true love Jane (Annie Jones) who played Jane so well it just felt so right to have Mike come back and sweep Jane of her feet again now and forever really wonderful

[@nebularain3338]

Class act! He didn't have to do any more than a "phone it in" cameo, but he took a substantial amount of screen time with the other cast members and was incredibly respectful of the show, A big Shout out to the wonderful Annie Jones too. Their scenes together were just absolute gold, and had me in tears. My only complaint was that I wanted so much more Mike & Jane story, becasue I was so utterly invested in the wholesome rekindling of their love.

[@janetnash]

I can’t really put into words what Guy’s performance meant to me. He had such a gracious and gentle way with him, thank you so much.

[@susanmullen489]

Guy seems like a really lovely man, what a star. x

[@napalm5]

Really humble and down to earth and no attitude

[@adityasanthanam1945]

I will miss Neighbors. It is very sad that it has ended. Mike was a great character.

[@welshie1979]

Haven't watched neighbours for nearly 20 years. Watched last few..Guy should be proud of himself..a fitting finale

[@dbg32]

Its amazing to hear him talk of the show in such a warm way.

[@jelenanovakovic7828]

What a lovely man: takes his job seriously, but not himself. His storyline on the final episode of Neighbours, was - as Mike and Jane said - 'amazing.'

[@hwd7]

I loved Guy Pearce's role in L.A. Confidential, great movie.

[@cazharris5581]

He seems a really grounded bloke. So appreciative of his time on Neighbours and humble.

[@daveparsons659]

That was wonderful guy and I was so pleased at the ending with you and Annie's character Jane got back together

[@dreyn7780]

I won't forget what he did at the nunawading swimming pool in front of 40 children, with that girl under water. I think she should have a go at him in court. That was disgusting public behaviour. He Should have been asked to leave immediately.

Brilliant, what a nice person to return and have an interview with this most iconic show. We love neighbours. The best soap ever.

[@superted6743]

Became a huge Hollywood star, but never got a ego or to big for his boots hence why he returned ,he came home one last time, back to his roots, to end a truly legendary show , l will never forget this show until its my time to leave this life , l watched this religiously growing up, tried never to miss a episode, but back then you had to be there right time , we never had recored or rewind like we have today , shame l had to grow up and leave it behind, didn't watch it for many many years , wish l was a kid again and have all those wonderful memories on the street , unfortunately time changes everything, lv seen a lot off old faces in neighbours recently, some really aged and some found a way off making time stand still , susan still looks the same , but then again l see a old face in the mirror looking back now ,looks like we aged togther, from young neighbour we became old neighbours together for that one last time we say goodbye , mike and Jane story was the perfect end two off my favourite characters,

[@scottkeenan6263]

Even though I have watched Neighbor's since the start the 1st 5 years or so were the best for me, the characters like Mike Jim Shane &co were great, still the best soap in UK going to miss my daily helping.

[@bletheringfool]

Although Scott and Charlene were the success story, Mike and Jane were the ones that got away, the other Ramsay Street love story that finally got a happy ending. I would have loved to see Hilary Robinson and Lou carpenter pop by as well but the whole cast did a stellar job

[@JayKhwaja]

Mike is a Real Bone Thug 💀 G. He went through so much Hell with his abusive Father yet he triumphed over so much to get through the odds and finally achieved in reuniting with the love of his life Jane.

@@joeycmichael3206 sure. But it's clear she didn't. All respect to Guy. Kylie knows her worth and isn't obliged to, but the result is that those scenes were weird and awkward, Scott and Charlene's cameo made very little sense. Guy and Annie's storyline was so nicely done.

He’s been way too underrated and overlooked in the industry. I’d say he’s the best actor in the game right now.

Probably cause he was doing sexual things in public after filming the show. Ask him what was he doing with that girl at the public swimming pool years ago? That Wasn't acceptable public behaviour.

With a lot of the original cast members coming back to Ramsay Street for one last time, neighbours will have the send off it deserves. But I’m sad to see it ending, and wish it wouldn’t end.
