Stefan Dennis has been a part of hit Australian soap Neighbours since it began in 1985, playing the often troubled Paul Robinson, who was Jim Robinson's ...
But I've also been on treks in the middle of the jungle and had someone going, 'Oh my God, it's you, it's Paul Robinson.' But the craziest one was one time I was on my motorcycle with a full-face helmet on, admittedly, no sunglasses, a full-face helmet on, in all leathers, and some person is walking across the street, and they're like, 'Oh my God. It's Paul Robinson.' You know me from my eyes? I did get recognised, and this was way back, long before Neighbours was even known of its existence in America. I was living in LA in '93, I was going to a bit of a celebrity spot bar. That was a good storyline. It was the last time Robert was in when he was in prison and Paul came to him for help. So, it's the legacy of those children that have kept it going, because it was just an ordinary family, and then it became more and more and more powerful with what the siblings did over the years. He was so believably menacing, I thought it was really good." Honestly, it was genuinely really nice that people were so loyal to the show and loved the show so much that they did go out and do stuff like start a petition to keep it on air. We actually got some really good feedback from that and the way that we handled that storyline, which was good. I think it'd be unfair to say it didn't, simply because of the fundamental thing that I've grown and matured just as my character and the show has, because of the amount of time it's been around. It was like, 'Wow, that is incredible that people feel that passionate about wanting the show to go on, and how they feel, and what it's meant to their lives'." The Robinsons will always be an iconic Neighbours family, and Paul Robinson a legendary character... The truth is it is a big shock to everybody.

And it’s sort of quite something to have started the whole thing off and I do feel proud of that. But I had to state the truth.

Neighbours is the latest casualty in the global flux of TV cultures. The death of this iconic show warrants a health-check for the Australian industry.
Emerging television professionals now face questions about whether they have the experience to meet the demands of a shorter-run commission. The SBS Emerging Writers’ Incubator also partners with the screen agencies to support development for under-represented writers. Throughout the decades, distinctly Australian television has maintained a presence on our screens through purposeful government policy frameworks. Hire an emerging writer and I guarantee they will move mountains to deliver. My concern is that if a soap does not soon make that transition, we will start to see the demise of these beloved programs around the world. Streaming services influence the format of the type of television content commissioned.
The death of this iconic show warrants a health-check for the Australian TV industry.
While screening agencies, production companies and individual showrunners are taking on some of the talent development burden, more needs to be done. Australia’s national screen agency, Screen Australia, and the state and territory screen agencies include talent development as part of their work. Streaming services influence the format of the type of television content commissioned. However, the playing field has now changed due to the abundance of streaming services that provide content to millions of Australians. Most major global streamers are US-based and exist outside our local content rules. While long-running series are not the only talent pipeline, the loss of Neighbours removes a significant access point to that often elusive first screen credit. The death of this iconic show warrants a health-check for the Australian TV industry.
