Ramsay Street is getting ready to welcome some old and new faces with open arms as Neighbours returns to screens later this year.
Most fans already know that four big characters will all be returning; Stefan Dennis as Paul Robinson, Alan Fletcher as Dr Karl Kennedy, Ryan Moloney as Toadfish and Jackie Woodburne as Susan Kennedy.
However, until now, a lot of Neighbours actors were left in the dark about whether their characters would be included in the reboot. With production gearing up to start within the next few months, more characters have been confirmed.

Along with these familiar faces, the show’s veterans will also be returning with the long-time executive producer, Jason Herbison, and producer, Andrew Thompson at the helm.
Last November, it was announced that Neighbours was coming back after a short hiatus since its “series finale” that aired earlier in 2022.
At the time, The Neighbours Twitter account shared a sweet video of Jackie running up to Toady and Dr Karl to tell them about the Neighbours reboot.
