In what's since become soapie folklore, Neighbours featured this magnificent sequence in 1990 which glimpsed into the mind of beloved icon, Bouncer the dog. Apparently Bouncer had a romantic attachment to the dog next door and here he dreams blissfully of their wedding day. The fact it's equal parts ridiculous and sweet, as well as being a wild departure from what we usually expect, Bouncer's dream is often referenced by fans as one of the most unforgettable moments in the show's history.

This excerpt is from episode 1254 of Neighbours, broadcast on 26 July 1990.
