After 37 years, iconic Australian TV series Neighbours will air its last episode.

Speaking to The Mirror, the actor revealed his emotions.

"It was very hard to fight back tears as we were saying the dialogue for what was going to be the last moments of the show," he said.

"There were hundreds of people in the studio to watch that final piece of filming.

"We had some speeches, I said a few words.

"There were some tears. There were some celebrations."

Any Neighbours fan will admit Dr Karl and his wife, Susan, felt like our own parents through their wholesome 30+ year marriage, so it's only fitting we're able to say goodbye with the man who brought us so many heart-warming moments.
