Noni Hazlehurst was pushed through Sydney Airport in a wheelchair on Monday as she arrived into the city.
The Australian actress, 71, was taken by airline staff through the airport after disembarking from the plane.
The former Playschool star was dressed casually for the flight in navy blue pants and a shirt of the same color.
She completed her look with a pair of comfortable gray shoes and sported a colorful necklace.
After collecting her luggage and being taken to the front of the airport, staff assisted Noni as she walked to the arrivals area and waited for a driver.
The sighting comes after Noni revealed how uncomfortable filming a sex scene for a movie can be in her new memoir Dropping the Mask.
While she is perhaps best known for her role on Playschool, where she appeared as the show’s host from 1978 to 2001, Noni has also enjoyed a storied acting career in film and television.
One of her most beloved roles on the big screen is the 1982 film Monkey Grip, in which she stars alongside 72-year-old Colin Friels.
Noni Hazlehurst was pushed through Sydney Airport in a wheelchair on Monday as she arrived into the city.
The Australian actress, 71, was transported through the airport by airline staff after disembarking from the plane.
The film, based on a novel by acclaimed Australian author Helen Garner, features some pretty racy scenes between the actors and now Noni has revealed what goes on behind the scenes.
In an exclusive extract, published on news.com.au, Noni revealed that while she and Colin have fogged up the screen in the film, not everything was as it seemed.
Noni recalled a passionate scene in which Colin had to kiss her “up and down my upper body” and although the end result was “sensual and tenderly romantic”, the rushes told a different story.

“With no music to augment the scene, all we could hear, other than the strange slurping sound, was (director) Ken Cameron’s voice talking us through the action,” he said.
“Slow down Colin, stay there a little longer, don’t eat it, be gentle, do that again with your fingers in your mouth Noni, slow down Colin, go up, down, too rough, go to the side, slow down Colin ” etc.”
“It was a lot of fun.”
He added that all of the film’s sex scenes were shot on the same day, which added to the awkwardness, although one crew member offered a novel solution.

The sighting comes after Noni revealed how uncomfortable filming a sex scene for a movie can be in her new memoir Dropping the Mask.
“The first assistant offered me a closed set and that the crew would also be naked, but the thought of about forty hairs on end waving my eyes was enough to turn me away from sex for life,” he admitted.
The awkwardness didn’t end there either, with Noni detailing how director Ken Cameron taught his on-screen love interest how to act on camera.
Noni’s list of television credits includes Division 4, The Sullivans, The Shiralee, City Homicide and A Place to Call Home.
While she is perhaps best known for her role on Playschool, where she appeared as the show’s host from 1978 to 2001, Noni has also enjoyed a notable acting career in film and television.
