Cat Rogers

Catriona "Cat" Rogers, portrayed by Maleeka Gasbarri, made her debut appearance on 19 January 2015. Prior to this, her character’s image was shown on screen on 28 November 2014, with Gasbarri’s casting revealed on 15 January. She secured the role after being spotted by a casting agent during an Australian Film and Television Academy course held in Perth, submitting her audition tape from her hometown of Dunsborough.

Cat is the daughter of Erin Rogers (Adrienne Pickering), who was placed into care because of Erin’s struggles with drug addiction. Erin informs Sonya Mitchell (Eve Morey) that Cat prefers to keep their contact limited to Facebook. However, Sonya’s husband, Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney), arranges a face-to-face meeting, which Cat cancels at the last moment due to anxiety. Eventually, Cat encounters Toadie earlier than expected, forming a connection over BMX biking before reconnecting with Erin. Upon discovering that Erin attended her cricket games without ever speaking to her, Cat abruptly leaves. After receiving a letter from Erin, Cat returns; they share moments over cricket and Erin invites her to stay, but departs before Cat arrives. Sonya and Toadie offer Cat overnight accommodation. Feeling uncomfortable as her foster parents anticipate a new baby, Cat requests to live with Sonya and Toadie. Sonya invites Cat’s foster mother, Lorraine (Michelle Celebicanin), who reassures Cat of her value. Ultimately, Cat chooses to return home but is encouraged by Sonya and Toadie to visit whenever she wishes.

Michelle Kim

Michelle Kim, enacted by Ra Chapman, appeared for the first time on 6 February 2015. Chapman completed filming her scenes during the week commencing 18 April 2015. Michelle is connected to the unscrupulous businessman Dennis Dimato (David Serafin). Chapman characterized Michelle as "tough" and "relentless," operating an illicit car theft ring and evolving into a more ruthless figure over time.

When Matt Turner (Josef Brown) begins working as a security guard at Dimato Industries, Michelle briefs him and attempts to befriend him with the intention of recruiting him into Dimato’s illegal operations. Matt initially resigns after discovering Dimato's criminal involvement but returns due to financial pressures. Michelle also enlists Tyler Brennan (Travis Burns) to dismantle stolen vehicles for parts, exploiting his family conflicts to draw him deeper into crime. After a theft traced by police leads to Dimato’s arrest and subsequent bail, he and Michelle take over Fitzgerald Motors as a front for their activities. When Dimato absconds, Michelle assumes control of the business.

Following an incident where Bailey Turner (Calen Mackenzie) takes a stolen car, Michelle demands repayment from Tyler and coerces Paige Smith (Olympia Valance) into assisting with the garage's unlawful dealings, later steering it toward legitimate operations after a police raid. Upon Dimato’s return, doubts arise about Tyler's loyalty. Eventually, Michelle is apprehended following a police raid supported by Paige.

After her release, Michelle seeks Mark’s protection against Dimato’s retaliation. She manipulates Paige by feigning injuries to implicate her in burglary as part of a plot involving stolen goods stored in an apartment rented under Paige’s name. Despite genuine violence inflicted by Dimato during an altercation, Michelle persists until Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) compels Dimato to leave town, prompting Michelle herself to depart Erinsborough.

Tyler Brennan

Tyler Brennan, played by Travis Burns, made his first appearance on 6 February 2015. The announcement of Burns' casting came on 3 November 2014. While auditioning in the United States, Burns expressed excitement about joining Neighbours during its 30th anniversary celebrations. Tyler is introduced as the younger sibling of the established character Mark Brennan (Scott McGregor). Burns’ prior acquaintance with McGregor through their shared modelling agency contributed to his successful casting. Tyler works as a mechanic and is depicted as a "bad boy with a heart" and a "troublesome" charmer with women.

Nick Petrides

Nick Petrides, portrayed by Damien Fotiou, was first seen on screen on 19 February 2015. His casting was disclosed on 20 November 2014 via a behind-the-scenes feature from Neighbours. Nick is introduced as the brother of Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou) and arrives in Erinsborough to visit family members. Fotiou described Nick as an oncologist driven by noble goals but possessing a complex and unpredictable personality. To fit the role, Fotiou underwent a transformation to present a more conservative appearance.

Nick’s storyline involved a fabricated cancer diagnosis, earning him recognition as one of the series’ most sinister antagonists. He developed a friendship with Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) and secured employment at the hospital. However, his unethical conduct—including falsifying Paul's leukemia diagnosis and manipulating hospital records—resulted in suspension and arrest. His actions were motivated by a misguided desire to find a cure for cancer.

In 2017, Nick returned during Terese’s breast cancer plotline, suggesting immunotherapy treatments and resuming research activities under parole conditions that prohibited medical practice but permitted oversight of treatments. His presence stirred controversy within the hospital and created friction with characters such as Paul Robinson and Amy Williams (Zoe Cramond). Despite efforts to establish a wellness centre for cancer patients and mend relationships, Nick’s parole was revoked after being found with illicit substances—which Paul had planted—and assaulting a security guard.

Nick's narrative explores themes of medical ethics, familial loyalty, and attempts at redemption within the competitive environment of Erinsborough Hospital.

Jimmy Williams

Jimmy Williams, played by Darcy Tadich, debuted on 10 June 2015, marking Tadich’s first television role. Jimmy is the son of returning character Amy Williams and represents the first grandchild of long-standing regular Paul Robinson. Initially unaware of Jimmy due to estrangement from Amy, Paul was "overjoyed" upon discovering he had a grandson. Jimmy develops a positive relationship with Paul, though Amy expresses concern that Paul might spoil him excessively. Tadich described Jimmy as an easygoing boy who enjoys video games. Tadich departed from the show on 25 May 2018 when Jimmy relocated to New York City with his father but made brief returns in 2019 and again for Amy’s departure in 2020.

Amy returned to Erinsborough intending to reconnect Jimmy with Paul. During this time, Jimmy formed bonds with Paul and his assistant Naomi Canning while Amy worked alongside Kyle Canning. Despite Paul's lavish gifts, Amy ensured Jimmy did not become spoiled. Jimmy uncovered letters exposing secrets about residents and used them to blackmail Karl and Susan Kennedy for treats, later doing the same to Sheila Canning until confronted. He also became friends with Kyle and frequently visited Dial-a-Kyle's yard. Amy and Kyle developed romantic feelings for each other, complicated by the arrival of Jimmy’s father, Liam Barnett.

After briefly going missing, Jimmy was found hiding at the high school. He witnessed Liam accepting a bribe from Paul to stay away from Amy and himself, which strained Jimmy’s relationship with Paul. When moving in with Kyle and Sheila, Jimmy initially resented Kyle but warmed up after learning about Liam’s criminal activities. He also befriended Stephanie Scully's son Charlie Hoyland. When Paul was accused of causing an explosion and went into hiding, Jimmy warned him but suffered an allergic reaction from a bee sting during their escape, which led to Paul's arrest.

Feeling abandoned due to Paul's imprisonment and family tensions, Jimmy engaged in risky behavior including dares that resulted in Charlie requiring hospital treatment. While playing with a drone, he was struck by a car and needed surgery for a ruptured spleen. Following Kyle's return visit, Amy decided to move out, causing friction with Jimmy who blamed Kyle. Eventually, Amy and Jimmy moved into Paul's penthouse residence.

Jimmy crashed his drone and mistakenly believed he caused Stephanie's bicycle accident but learned it was due to mechanical failure. At the hospital, he formed a connection with Nick Petrides through chess despite initial reluctance. After accidentally injuring Shane Rebecchi with his bike, Jimmy attempted to buy Kirsha Rebecchi a smartwatch but lacked funds. Encouraged by Tia Martinez, he stole alcohol from hotel rooms to resell; this led to Xanthe Canning’s suspension when Tia planted bottles in her bag—Jimmy confessed his involvement.

Developing feelings for Poppy Ryan, Kirsha assisted him in asking her out, leading to their dating relationship. Liam returned seeking reconciliation but left again after an incident where Jimmy collapsed due to illness; he recovered in hospital care. Upon discovering Poppy had bullied Kirsha, Jimmy ended their relationship. When Liam planned to move to New York City inviting Jimmy along, Amy refused; however, Jimmy later expressed interest in spending six months there supported by Paul.

The following year, Amy’s partner Gary Canning brought Jimmy back to Erinsborough for her birthday party and surprise wedding event. After Amy declined marriage at the celebration, she and Jimmy left briefly before returning. Paul attempted to influence Jimmy regarding Amy's relationships but ultimately respected her choices. Months later, Amy discovered that Jimmy was struggling with teenage issues involving conflicts with Liam and disapproved friends; she confronted him after he stole money.

Jimmy secretly brought his girlfriend to Australia seeking protection from an abusive father and urged Amy to relocate to New York with him due to missing her support network. With her relationship with Kyle deteriorating, Amy decided to end it and leave Erinsborough alongside Jimmy and Leo.

Aaron Brennan

Aaron Brennan, brought to life by Matt Wilson, made his first appearance on 16 June 2015. The announcement of Wilson's casting came on 17 May 2015, leading him to move from Sydney to Melbourne for filming purposes. Aaron is introduced as the third brother in the Brennan family, joining siblings Mark and Tyler. Wilson characterized Aaron as self-assured and charming. His initial introduction was striking, arriving as a male stripper before reconnecting with his brothers. Aaron is also depicted as gay and was developed as a possible romantic partner for Nate Kinski.

Mary Smith

Mary Smith, portrayed by Gina Liano, debuted on-screen on 30 June 2015. Liano's role marked her first acting experience after impressing casting officials during a screen test. She began filming her scenes on 14 April 2015. Mary is the adoptive mother of Paige Smith, with Olympia Valance—who plays Paige—praising Liano as an excellent choice for the part. The character’s appearance was influenced by Liano’s own personal style.

Mary arrives in Erinsborough to celebrate Paige’s 21st birthday and encounters Paige’s biological parents, Lauren Carpenter and Brad Willis. She reveals that her son Ethan has been keeping her informed about Paige’s life. Mary’s goal is to convince Paige to relocate to Singapore with her, but Paige resists due to her commitments as a police officer. Although she initially refuses, Mary surprises everyone by attending Paige’s wedding to Mark Brennan, which is ultimately called off when Mark arrests Paige. Mary offers emotional support to her daughter and eventually persuades her to return to Singapore together.

Russell Brennan

Russell Brennan, played by Russell Kiefel, made his debut on 29 July 2015. His casting was announced on 29 June 2015. Russell is the father of Mark (Scott McGregor), Tyler (Travis Burns), and Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson). He is central to a sensitive domestic violence storyline, having abused his sons in the past, which led to estrangement and complicated attempts at reconciliation. Kiefel described Russell as trying to prove he has changed, although doubts remain about his sincerity. Claire Crick from All About Soap highlighted Russell’s potential to cause turmoil despite lacking the appeal of his sons. While producers planned for Kiefel to return in a significant storyline, following his death in November 2016, they shifted focus toward introducing the Brennan brothers' mother, Fay (Zoe Bertram).

After being contacted by Mark, Russell arrives on Ramsay Street aiming to rebuild relationships with his sons. He flirts with Sheila Canning (Colette Mann) and learns Aaron works as an exotic dancer, which creates a disconnect between them. Russell shares a barbecue with his sons and apologizes to Tyler for his past abusive behavior.

Russell begins a relationship with Sheila; she offers financial assistance to buy Fitzgerald Motors after he struggles to sell his garage. Mark uncovers that the funds were acquired illegally by Sheila's son, Gary Canning (Damien Richardson), prompting Sheila to report it to authorities. Subsequently, Mark and Aaron contribute their savings toward purchasing the garage. Russell’s temper flares during a prank involving Tyler and Ben Kirk (Felix Mallard), escalating tensions and evoking memories of past abuse when Tyler punches him. Upon learning this, Mark confronts Tyler, who reveals Russell’s history of violence. Russell admits it and is told to leave; Sheila refuses to accompany him but encourages him to seek help.

Two years later, Russell suffers a heart attack and requests a visit from his ex-wife Fay. Shortly before his sons and Sheila plan their visit, he passes away. It is later disclosed that Hamish Roche (Sean Taylor) is Tyler's biological father and that Russell was murdered by Hamish along with nurse Louise McLeod (Maria Theodorakis).

Courtney Grixti

Courtney Grixti, enacted by Emma Lane, made her first appearance on 4 August 2015. Lane, who was romantically involved with Travis Burns (Tyler Brennan) at the time, expressed enthusiasm about joining the cast. Initially cast for a guest role, she resumed filming in early 2016.

Courtney initially serves as a barmaid at The Waterhole before advancing to manage the spa at Lassiter's Hotel. Early plotlines feature her challenging new workplace regulations and embarking on a short-lived romance with Josh Willis, which leads to interactions with his family and former partner. Subsequently, she dates Tyler Brennan, provoking jealousy from Piper Willis, who mistakenly records Courtney with mayoral hopeful Tim Collins—only to later uncover that Courtney is his daughter. Courtney then acts as a mediator to prevent legal repercussions following Piper's defamatory actions.

After disputes with her father Tim and ending her relationship with Tyler due to control issues, Courtney supports Paige Smith after her breakup and assists in arranging a meeting with a university lecturer. She eventually leaves university and secures employment at Lassiter's spa, where suspicions arise regarding her provision of specialized massages to male patrons. Terese Willis dismisses her amid allegations of misconduct; however, upon discovering that Courtney offers psychological therapy alongside massages, Terese offers her position back—an offer Courtney declines. Feeling betrayed by Tim’s belief in the rumors, she briefly leaves town and initiates a $5 million lawsuit against Terese.

Courtney returns engaged to Paul Robinson, who convinces her to retract the lawsuit as he becomes the primary investor in the hotel and appoints her as a Rejuvenation Consultant. Their engagement prompts skepticism from Paul's family concerning Courtney's motives. Despite flirtations with Paul's son Leo Tanaka, Courtney remains devoted to Paul. Initially, their relationship is a façade designed for retaliation against Terese and Tim but later they contemplate making it authentic. Plans to elope are abandoned, leading to efforts toward reconciliation with Tim. Ultimately, Courtney resigns from Lassiter's but maintains her engagement to Paul.

Piper Willis

Piper Willis, portrayed by Mavournee Hazel, first appeared on 16 September 2015. Although referenced since her family's arrival in 2013, Hazel's casting was announced on 18 August 2015. Hazel relocated to Melbourne for filming and described Piper as "feisty" and "quirky." Before debuting on-screen, Piper was featured in webisodes titled Hey Piper, which depicted video calls with her family. She is the youngest daughter of Brad and Terese Willis, returning from studies in Canada.

Shay Daeng

Shay Daeng (also known as Quill), portrayed by Yasmin Kassim, first appeared on 29 October 2015. Her casting was revealed shortly before her debut; Kassim filmed a guest role in Melbourne and described Shay as "really cool." Shay arrives in Erinsborough to serve as assistant manager at Lassiter's Hotel. Her storyline involves workplace tensions and personal drama connected to the Quill Group, owners of Lassiter's.

Shay meets Kyle Canning through a dating app and becomes part of the Lassiter's team during Terese Willis' recovery from injuries. Terese recognizes Shay from a previous conference involving her stepmother, Julie Quill, revealing Shay’s role as an operative for the Quill Group. Shay oversees hotel restructuring efforts, retains Terese as manager, and retaliates against Kyle by ending his contract. Following escalating conflicts including an incident involving Amy Williams, Shay departs for Dubai.

In 2021, Shay returns to collaborate with Jesse Porter, an employee at Lassiter's acting as a spy for the Quill Group. She pressures Jesse to collect information aimed at rehabilitating the group's image after prior controversies linked to Julie Quill. Despite internal opposition and Terese’s attempts at intervention, Shay insists on assertive tactics to preserve the business amid financial difficulties, seeking new investors after plans with Lassiters are postponed.

Cecilia Saint

Cecilia Saint, played by Candice Alley, made her first appearance on 11 November 2015. Alley secured the role following an audition and expressed appreciation for the friendly atmosphere among the cast and crew. She viewed the part as a chance to portray a single mother navigating complex circumstances. Cecilia was introduced as an enigmatic figure entangled in a plot against Stephanie Scully (Carla Bonner).

Cecilia brings her vehicle to Fitzgerald Motors for maintenance, involving Steph and her son Harrison (Zebedee Howell), whom she refers to as Charlie when Steph is present. After a disagreement regarding brake pad repairs, Cecilia contacts Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) to report Steph's unsettling behavior, following his directives. Later, she has Harrison reach out to Steph, conveying that he misses her.

Several months on, Paul employs Cecilia to disrupt the Citizen of the Year ceremony at Lassiter's Hotel. An explosion devastates the hotel, and when Paul tries to contact Cecilia afterward, she ignores his calls. Following Paul's arrest, Steph confronts Cecilia, who denies any involvement and refuses to cooperate with law enforcement.

Subsequently, Cecilia approaches Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou) seeking information about her daughter Piper (Mavournee Hazel), linked through an interview referencing Cecilia. Terese compensates Cecilia for providing false testimony against Paul and offers her employment. During the trial, Cecilia maintains her fabricated statements until Terese admits to bribing her to lie.
