As Scott Robinson in Neigbours, the Aussie blonde inspired a thousand 1987 playground re-enactments of his wedding to Charlene, played by Kylie Minogue. Such was the popularity of the ficitional 'Scott and Charlene' relationship that a concurrent pop career sprung up, masterminded by Stock Aitken and Waterman. Singles Too Many Broken Hearts and Especially For You, a duet with Kylie, were preposterously popular, as was the attendant merchandise such as pillow cases and mugs. Following that, Donovan starred in the west end as Joseph in The Amazing Techicolour Dreamcoat and developed and dropped a heroic bizzo habit.

He's since had somewhat of a renaissance, thanks to I'm a Celeb, doing some Iceland ads with Colleen Nolan and a stint in Strictly, the Brits love and underdog, and old Jason is the most loveable and underdoggiest of them all.
