Jason Donovan hints at Neighbours return if Kylie Minogue signs up
Actor JASON DONOVAN has hinted he will reunite with his former NEIGHBOURS co-star KYLIE MINOGUE for a special scene marking the hit Australian drama's 30th birthday next year (15) if their pal GUY PEARCE joins in.
Donovan, Pearce, and pop star Minogue found fame on the long-running soap opera in the 1980s before leaving to pursue highly successful stage and screen careers.
Neighbours turns 30 next year and producers have a few surprises in store for viewers, prompting fans to speculate that Minogue is planning a comeback cameo after she posted a message on Twitter.com referring to buying a pair of overalls, as worn by her mechanic character in the show.

He tells TV show Loose Women, "The thing about something like that I feel is it's got to be a great effort - you can't just (have) one or two (stars returning).
