Barely a month has gone by since beloved Aussie soap Neighbours ended its record-breaking run. And while cast member
Alan Fletcher, who played Dr Karl Kennedy for almost 28 years, ought to be kicking back with his feet up, he’s instead buzzing over a new career that should keep him busy for the next decade – at least!
There’s his new country single, ‘Sorry is the Word’, featuring friend and former co-star Alyce Platt. He’s also just released his debut solo album, Dispatches, after 15 years singing with rock band Waiting Room.
“Life’s all about moving onto new phases,” smiles the Melbourne-based father of two, who recently became an empty nester.
“Every year on Neighbours I [was] on a 12-month contract, so at any point producers could have said, ‘Thank you, that’s enough!’
“As a performer, you’re quite used to the idea of being a rooster one day, a feather duster the next.”
