The finale of the iconic soap will air in the UK tonight, but it has already been shown in its native Australia.

The episode opens with Paul Robinson (played by Stefan Dennis) saying: "Ramsay Street...It’s just an ordinary street in an ordinary neighbourhood … where extraordinary things tend to happen.”

Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne) is then shown sadly looking around the street, on which every house - bar her own - is up for sale.
