Although fans were heartbroken when Aussie soap Neighbours was axed earlier this month, it still celebrates its 37th birthday today. So what better way to commemorate the much loved show than with a look back at some of the show's maddest moments. The soap has had some ridiculous storylines over the last four decades – here are some of the most memorable....
Dream big, Bouncer (1991) “Rack off, Bouncer!” is the obligatory phrase Brits use when doing an impression of an Aussie – and it’s all down to Ramsay Street’s original – and best – pet.The labrador was so important to residents and viewers, he was given his own storyline – an iconic sequence in which he dreamed he was marrying Rosie, the border collie next door.The cast hated it, calling it a “strange” move, but even now the lovesick lab’s night-time fantasy remains one of the soap’s best ever moments. Get exclusive celebrity stories and fabulous photoshoots straight to your inbox with OK!'s daily newsletter Hi Harold! (1997) Surely the most recognisable face in Erinsborough, Harold Bishop has gone down in legend as one of the greatest soap characters of all time. So his death in 1991 – when he fell off a cliff, leaving only his glasses behind – hit viewers hard.
His wife Madge was also devastated by his demise, though she needn’t have worried. Five years later, Harold returned (suffering from amnesia, obvs), much to the surprise and delight of fans – and of course his beloved Madge. Proof you can’t keep a popular character down.
Spooky Goings On (1992) Neighbours loves a good ghost. We’ve counted at least nine over the years, with the likes of Madge and Drew Kirk making appearances from the afterlife. But the first Ramsay Street spirit was the most shocking.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorAnyone who feels the Grammy Awards can be stodgy today might want to consider how far the show has come since the 1990s.Not only was it an utterly abysmal time for fashion — The hair! The shoulder pads! The big, stiff suits! — but the music industry was riding the CD boom, which took profits to hitherto-unimagined heights and made hubris balloon even faster: The titans of the industry thought, as they often do, “We have made it, we’ll just keep doing exactly the same thing over and over and the masses will give us more and more money!” The sounds of the future — hip-hop, alternative, heavy metal — got obligatory new categories as a patronizing pat on the head for “the youngsters” (as Ed Sullivan, the mainstream entertainment curator of the Boomer generation, used to call them). By the early 1990s, the Grammy voting body had become ever more out-of-touch, complacent, arrogant and, most of all, old.
