Olivia Wilde's final 'House' episode aired last night (17.10.11).

The 27-year-old actress had taken a brief break from playing Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley in the medical drama - a role she landed in 2007 - but returned for a last farewell show before saying goodbye to the programme to focus on her movie career.

However, she said: "My film career is thanks to `House.'"

The 'Tron: Legacy' star admitted she learned a lot during her stint on the show, which stars Hugh Laurie in the lead role.

She said: " "It's been an extraordinary time on the show for me, my work has gotten so much better from being on the show, from learning from Hugh and all the other actors and our amazing writing staff. I see it as a chapter, a really important chapter, in my life."

Hugh admitted he was sad to see Olivia leave the programme for good but predicted "great things" in her future.

He said: "Olivia is a real delight to be around, and we will miss her very, very much. She's obviously headed for great things."
