Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan were reunited on stage for the first time in 23 years.

The Aussies duetted on their 1988 smash hit Especially For You to rapturous audience applause.

During a musical interlude, Jason swept the diminutive pop star – dressed in a short black dress with green leather – off her feet in a heartfelt embrace.

“How long have you waited for this for?” Minogue asked, before singing the closing notes.

Globally loved for their roles as Scott and Charlene in soap Neighbours, the single sold more than a million copies in the UK alone.
