Neighbours is lining up a huge week for Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher), as he makes a momentous decision regarding his future.
He’s had a tough time of late, spending much of last week in a coma with stroke-like symptoms after being poisoned by his dastardly nephew Darcy Tyler (Mark Raffety).
Now, confronted with returning to normality, he surprises wife Susan (Jackie Woodburne) with a revelation.
Ramsay Street lives up to its name next week when two new members of the clan arrive. Max’s (Ben Jackson) mum Yvette (Libby Tanner) and youngster Saskia (Mia Foran) jet in to visit him, but it’s not long before the latter decides to make it her permanent home.
She immediately makes quite the impact on Byron Stone (Xavier Molyneux), who is surprised to see her innocent façade drop when she tries to kiss him!
Elsewhere, Andrew Rodwell (Lloyd Will) grows closer to his daughter’s bestie Holly Hoyland (Lucinda Armstrong-Hall) when she accompanies him on a trip to meet his biological family in Sandy Point.
It all goes swimmingly, but why are they so keen to conceal their late-night drinks from his wife Wendy (Candice Leask)?
Plus, Cara Varga-Murphy’s (Sara West) in hot water at work when brother-in-law Taye Obasi’s (Lakota Johnson) escorting is exposed, and Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson) suffers another setback in his love triangle.
For all the hottest goss from Down Under, I’m your man! Here’s Metro‘s guide to next week’s Neighbours action.
Monday, June 23
Holly accompanies Andrew on his trip to Sandy Point, in search of answers regarding his biological family.


Upon arriving at the marina, they encounter his dad Steven and sister Gretchen on his boat. Steven’s moved to finally meet his long-lost son, with Gretchen explaining that she lied about his nature to Wendy because she was worried about her dad’s health.
He’s battling lung cancer – but luckily is responding well to treatment.
After a lovely day, Holly notices that Andrew’s on a huge high and suggests that they stop off in the city for a celebratory drink, and they enjoy one another’s company.
The next morning, Wendy is thrilled to be offered a job interview at Erinsborough High, but is brought back down to reality after learning about Holly accompanying him to meet his family.


She accuses him of being a hypocrite, and when Holly arrives, she’s shocked by Andrew’s decision not to tell his wife about their late-night drink.
Elsewhere, Karl’s nearest and dearest gather around his hospital bed and he seems subdued.
Jane secures a meeting with Darcy in prison, and Susan thinks her husband should do the same. Karl insists that he never wants to see his nephew ever again.
In the prison, Darcy apologises to a livid Jane, and offers her some comfort by recalling an anecdote that proved Amanda never stopped caring for her.


The next day, Karl is discharged from hospital and decides to pluck up the courage to face his attempted killer. All he wants to know is why he was targeted.
Being honest, Darcy tells him that Karl is too old to be practising medicine.
He’s left furious, and it really knocks his confidence. He heads home and tells Susan that he has no intentions of rushing back to Eirini Rising.
Tuesday, June 24
Two new Ramsays arrive on the street – Max’s mum Yvette, and his younger sister Saskia.


He’s shocked when Yvette suggests that Saskia move to Erinsborough long term, due to a bullying situation back home in Brisbane. Max wants to help his little sister, but isn’t sure that his flatmates will be on board.
He can see how desperate they both are for it to happen, with Taye and Byron soon talked round. Jane even manages to secure a place at E High for her.
Taye has much bigger issues, though. Lydia wants to meet up and he has to bail on a poker game with Remi.
She and Cara soon confront him, and as he tries to rush away, drops a large wad of cash on the floor that he’s just received in payment for his escorting services.

Cara is instantly suspicious, and even more so when she finds Lydia’s police ID badge on the floor of is car. After demanding answers, she’s shocked by what she hears!
Elsewhere, tensions are running high between Andrew and Wendy ahead of her interview at the school.
She vents to Jane, who suggests that she might want to look at the bigger picture. Andrew could’ve handled things better, but ultimately, he’s found his father and things have worked out for the best – which is exactly what she wanted.
After taking in the advice, Wendy takes in her husband’s apology and makes amends for her behaviour too.


But as they repair their relationship, the secret of Andrew’s drinks with Holly looms large…
Wednesday, June 25
The Varga-Murphys can’t believe that Taye has been operating as an escort, and especially that Lydia was his star client.
They’re both supportive of him, and Cara decides to confront Lydia about the situation. She denies everything and threatens retaliatory action.


Undeterred, Cara tells the police academy, who arrange for her to be re-assigned a new mentor. Unfortunately, the person is an old friend of Lydia’s and there could be a possible blowback.
Taye approaches Byron for help, but there may still be some trouble ahead…
Elsewhere, Saskia is nervous ahead of her first day at her new school, but her spirits are lifted by support from her new neighbours – including the suggestion of a barbecue be hosted to welcome her to the community.
Her new life gets off to a good start, she meets neighbours Dex – who instantly develops a crush – JJ, and Wendy, who is also a newbie to the corridors, and she thanks Max for all of his support.


He’s hopeful that his shy, studious sister will come out of her shell.
What he doesn’t realise is that she’s not as naïve as she makes out, and she takes no time to ask Byron for help adjusting her bikini strap. She then propositions him and tries to plant a kiss!
Across the road, Andrew receives a box of photographs and mementoes from his biological family, and Holly helps him go through them.
She’s moved seeing him so emotional, and soon loses track of the time – arriving late to Saskia’s party.
Thursday, June 26
Byron is stunned by Saskia’s advances and assures her that it won’t be going any further.


Everyone gathers for her bash, and she charms them with her sweet, innocent persona, which makes Byron feel deeply uncomfortable. He doesn’t know how to read her, or whether to tell Max about what she did.
Dex asks her out on a date, but she fobs him off with an excuse about how she’s too committed to her studios to be distracted by a boy. Byron overhears, and sees it as another inconsistency in her behaviour.
Ultimately, he decides to keep the attempted kiss a secret, knowing that the truth would hurt Max. Saskia is glad that he’s saved her the embarrassment, and as they seem to reach a reset, she flirtatiously shows off her body and suggests that he’s missing out.


Rhett comes along to the barbecue as Aaron’s plus one, and there’s clear chemistry between them both.
Just as things are starting to look up, Colton arrives and clears up Aaron’s misconception about him not being interested. Cara isn’t impressed to see him there and works double time to prove that Rhett is the right man for her mate.
The competition for Aaron’s affections begin to mess with his head, as Rhett and Colton come to loggerheads during a game of volleyball.
He comes to the conclusion that he’s going to have to make a choice, and decides to head home to think it over. Nicolette tracks him down and urges him to go back, as in his absence, the two men seem to be taking a liking to each other.

They even snuck off to the bathroom together for an unusually long amount of time.
She’s convinced they’ve moved on, and breaks the bad news to Aaron.
Elsewhere, Karl feels demoralised by the physical therapy sessions he’s having to go through so soon after his leg injury.
Susan is struggling to stay strong for him, and confides in Colton, who suggests that getting her husband back into his old habits might help.
She runs with the advice and takes Karl for a trip to Eirini, and although his mood improves, it seems that the visit has given him fresh inspiration for his future.
He’s decided to resign.
