"You never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory, and there's so much when you come down that street," he said.
"It was emotional, but it's filming and it moves on. You'll have to wait and see."

Speaking to , Isheev said: "When we knew that Neighbours was going to be finishing up, Jason [Herbison] and I had a meeting with just the two of us and I went to pitch my version of the ending. He went first and told me his thoughts, even the final scene, and the final line, and when he told me I got goosebumps, burst into tears and it was just perfect.
"We just want it to be a celebration and for people to feel wonderful after watching it."
