Pippa Black to Leave :(

LOGIE nominee Pippa Black (left) is the latest star to be saying goodbye to Ramsay St and the cast and crew of Neighbours.
Black, who plays Lucinda ``Elle'' Robinson on the long-running soap, was hailed as one of the show's brightest young stars and received a Most Popular New Female Talent nomination at the 2006 Logie Awards.
Executive producer Susan Bower said Black was a ``wonderful actress'' and a ``beautiful person''.
``We've anticipated that Pip would want to spread her wings and have been incredibly privileged to have had her with us for the past three years,'' Bower said.
Black's departure comes hot on the heels of co-star Brett Tucker who is leaving the show to act in the US.
Bower said it was ``coincidental'' that Tucker and Black were leaving the show at the same time and said it was common for young actors to want to take their careers further overseas.
``People naturally want to explore new opportunities and actors are the same, both are heading overseas,'' Bower said.
She said casting for new male and female actors had begun.

I don't know if i'll watch neighbours again she was like the Danielle in eastenders to me the main reason i watch it.
although i like Donna and a few others but thats about it.

Another 'Neighbours' star quits

Neighbours actress Pippa Black is the latest star to quit the iconic Australian series, reports the Herald Sun.

Last year, the 26-year-old star announced her intentions to leave the series before later signing an extension on her contract.

Speaking of Black's decision to leave, Neighbours executive producer Susan Bower said: "We've anticipated that Pip would want to spread her wings and have been incredibly privileged to have had her with us for the past three years."

Bower added that Black plans to head overseas once she has finished filming with the soap.

Earlier this week, Brett Tucker announced that he was also quitting the series to pursue a career in the US.

"People naturally want to explore new opportunities and actors are the same, both are heading overseas," Bower said.

its only on though ! is it true or not i hope not ):

it is true
otherwise Susan wouldnt have made a statemnet

nooooooooo


How old is Pippa?

well she was born in 1982
So that would make her 27 i think

According to wikipedia she's 26-27 but she's about 22 in the show.

She looks pretty young for her age

yea
she is absolutely Stunning

Best character in it then its Donna

There's an american actress named Kristen Bell who has been playing 17 yr olds for the past 10 years lol!

Yea
I love Donna
She is like a mini Elle

That would be really hard.

Robert Pattinson has to look 17 for 4 years so he can film the whole twilight series

Oh yeah!
