McGregor hints at 'Neighbours' heartache

Scott McGregor has hinted that his Neighbours character Mark Brennan will not get a happy ending.

Last month, it was confirmed that the actor is to bow out from his role as the Erinsborough detective, who has been in a relationship with Kate Ramsay in recent months.

Speaking to PA about Mark's departure storyline, McGregor teased: "It could be happier, but all I can say is he is forced to leave the street."

The 30-year-old went on to praise his Neighbours colleagues - including Ashleigh Brewer, who plays Kate.

He said: "They're a fantastic bunch of people and I get along really well with the crew, who have been great to me. I couldn't have picked someone better to play an on-screen girlfriend. Ashleigh and I hit it off from day one, she's very special.

"The hardest thing has been that we laugh too much, so in serious scenes we are really struggling sometimes to hold it together."

McGregor recently said that he quit Neighbours to focus on his modelling career. He is expected to film his final scenes next month.
