One of Neighbours' longest-serving actresses, Rebecca Ritters grew up on screen as Hannah Martin who, during 7 years living in Erinsborough went through numerous family members, boyfriends and even escapades with a cursed rock. Having left Neighbours a decade ago and now living in Los Angeles, Rebecca took some time to look back at her time in Erinsborough...

When you think back on your time with Neighbours, what’s the first thing that comes to mind?
Fun! I was always having a lot of fun.

Had you done any acting before you landed the role of Hannah in 1992?
No, none. I think I had one audition before the audition for Neighbours, it was for a commercial for Apple Macintosh, I think. I don’t think I had even done a school play!


Do you remember much about the audition process and how you originally won the part?
On the day of my first audition I had to go to the airport to drop some family off who were going back to Europe. I fell off some play equipment and broke my arm. My mum rang Grundy’s and told them I wouldn’t be able to do the role, even if they wanted me, because my arm was in a cast!! They must have thought her a bit batty… By the time they called me back for the second audition, my arm was healed.
