Nell Rebecchi
Nell Rebecchi, brought to life by Scarlett Anderson (2013–2022) and later Ayisha Salem-Towner (2023–2025), made her first appearance on 7 January 2013. She is the child of Sonya and Toadfish Rebecchi. Anderson was only a month old when she debuted. The pregnancy storyline involving Sonya was shared with Vanessa Villante, allowing both actresses to wear prosthetic pregnancy bumps that gradually grew over time. On-screen, Sonya initially plans for a home delivery but ultimately requires a caesarean section because of complications, with Nell’s condition initially uncertain.
Anderson’s final portrayal occurred in the 2022 season finale, after which Salem-Towner assumed the role following Neighbours’ 2023 revival, which advanced the storyline by two years. Toadie hinted at Nell’s expanded presence under Salem-Towner’s portrayal, praising her as "quite phenomenal." Upon her return, Nell is depicted as older.
Sonya and Toadie face difficulties conceiving due to Toadie's low sperm count. After confirming Sonya’s pregnancy, they decide on the surname Rebecchi and name their daughter Nell in honor of Nell Mangel. Following Nell’s birth, the family holds a naming day ceremony introducing her to grandmother Angie Rebecchi.
Early plots involving Nell include a digital detox to address her overreliance on technology, a fall that triggers a Department of Human Services investigation, and an allergic reaction requiring hospital care. Behavioral challenges emerge when Nell begins biting others, later linked to the influence of a mobile app. When Toadie becomes paralyzed, Amy Williams assists Nell in overcoming her fear of his wheelchair through imaginative play.
After Sonya and Toadie separate, Nell mainly resides with Sonya but keeps in touch with Toadie. She develops a strong relationship with family friend Mark Brennan. An incident where she overdoses on medication results in hospitalization. Concerned by Nell’s behavior, Toadie seeks help from a child psychologist before eventually reconciling with Sonya.
Nell meets her half-brother Hugo Somers, born from Toadie's one-night encounter with Andrea Somers. Following Sonya’s diagnosis and subsequent death from ovarian cancer, Toadie assumes single parenthood. Nell finds it difficult when relatives Shane and Dipi Rebecchi leave but gradually comes to terms with their absence.
Later storylines see Nell confused about Amy Greenwood dating two men at once, prompting Toadie to address the situation. She enjoys cherished family moments such as a Father’s Day picnic and grows close to Melanie Pearson, who helps preserve Sonya’s memory after her passing.
Nell becomes fixated on a crystal ball she believes connects her with Sonya; when it breaks, she confesses she enjoyed imagining it was real. She suffers minor injuries after consuming spiked jelly shots but recovers swiftly. Nell attends Toadie’s wedding to Terese Willis but opposes the union, feeling that Toadie belongs with Melanie.
She leaves reminders of Melanie and Paul Robinson around the house and, after meeting Melanie’s friend Sharon Davies, visits Melanie’s home where an intruder knocks her unconscious; she is later rescued and safely returned to Ramsay Street.
Amber Turner
Amber Turner, portrayed by Jenna Rosenow, first appeared on 7 February 2013. Her casting was revealed on 4 November 2012. Rosenow, who had previously appeared as an extra on the show, described Amber as "a typical 17-year-old" and "a normal teenage girl." Amber is the sole daughter of Matt (Josef Brown) and Lauren Turner (Kate Kendall). The character is depicted as somewhat innocent yet harboring a secretive side that adds depth to her otherwise "good girl" persona. An online spin-off series titled Amber's Blog follows Amber chronicling her family’s relocation from Mount Isa to Erinsborough.
Bailey Turner
Bailey Turner, portrayed by Calen Mackenzie, made his debut on 7 February 2013, with casting revealed on 4 November 2012. Prior to this role, Mackenzie appeared in Neighbours as Thomas McPhee. Originally signed on for a four-year term, he expressed enthusiasm about joining a well-established series. Bailey is the youngest offspring of Matt Turner (Josef Brown) and Lauren Carpenter (Kate Kendall). Characterized as intellectually gifted, Bailey is a cheeky and curious adolescent who proudly identifies as a nerd, highlighting his cerebral attributes.
Matt Turner
Matt Turner, enacted by Josef Brown, first appeared on 7 February 2013. His casting was announced on 4 November 2012. Matt is married to Lauren Carpenter (Kate Kendall) and father to Mason (Taylor Glockner), Amber (Jenna Rosenow), and Bailey (Calen Mackenzie). The family relocates to Erinsborough from Mount Isa, where Matt assumes the role of the local police sergeant. Brown described the Turners as a distinctive family unit carrying "a few secrets and dramas."
Robbo Slade
Robert Alan "Robbo" Slade, played by Aaron Jakubenko, first appeared on 15 February 2013. Jakubenko had previously portrayed other characters in Neighbours. Robbo is a friend of Mason Turner from Mount Isa who orchestrated an unsuccessful factory robbery that led to Mason’s arrest by Matt Turner. Subsequently, Robbo broke into the Turner household and fabricated stories about his presence in Erinsborough. He is unveiled as Amber Turner's secret boyfriend. Jenna Rosenow characterized Robbo as a deceptive "bad boy" whose charm conceals his true intentions.
Robbo’s storyline involves breaking into Number 32 Ramsay Street, clashing with Lou Carpenter (Tom Oliver), and coercing Mason into further criminal acts. After being spotted by Sonya Mitchell (Eve Morey), Robbo temporarily disappears but returns months later, heightening conflicts with the Turner family and intimidating several locals. He attempts to manipulate Amber and Mason through blackmail involving a recorded incident and organizes poker games that entangle residents like Lucas Fitzgerald (Scott Major) in debt.
Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) takes advantage of Robbo’s desperation by involving him in a rigged poker game, worsening his financial woes. Robbo’s intimidation extends to Sonya and her family, including spiking a drink intended for her but consumed instead by Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney). His arc culminates in a hit-and-run accident that leaves him hospitalized; after briefly regaining consciousness and trying to disclose information about Mason, Robbo suffers cardiac arrest and dies. Hudson Walsh (Remy Hii) later admits responsibility for the accident.
Mason Turner
Mason Turner, played by Taylor Glockner, made his first appearance on 22 February 2013. Glockner’s casting was announced on 4 November 2012. He filmed for approximately five to six weeks before the annual production hiatus. Mason is the eldest child of Lauren Carpenter (Kate Kendall) and Matt Turner (Josef Brown). Described as "smouldering" and rebellious, Mason is portrayed as a "bad boy" with a good heart who often commits wrongdoings for noble reasons. He shares a complicated relationship with his father and frequently teases his sister Amber (Jenna Rosenow). Mason arrives after serving time in juvenile detention for a robbery conviction in which he was wrongfully implicated. Upon arrival, he persistently flirts with Kate Ramsay (Ashleigh Brewer).
Rhiannon Bates
Rhiannon Bates, portrayed by Teressa Liane, made her debut on 8 April 2013. To embody Rhiannon's unique appearance, Liane altered her natural hair color to brunette and applied striking makeup. Rhiannon, characterized as daring and unforgettable, is Mason Turner's former girlfriend from Mount Isa. She arrives in Erinsborough aiming to reconnect with Mason, making a memorable entrance by climbing through his bedroom window. Her arrival coincides with Mason’s developing romance with Kate Ramsay, generating conflict.
Rhiannon discloses that she left her son Jackson in the care of her sister and remains in Erinsborough after Mason refuses to return with her to Mount Isa. She takes up residence at Number 26 Ramsay Street and later confesses to sending a threatening note to Matt Turner because of his treatment toward Mason. Facing financial difficulties, she revamps her style on Sheila Canning’s suggestion and leverages this new image to manipulate Paul Robinson into offering her a job. Feeling uneasy around Paul’s associates, she ultimately opts to leave for Mount Isa but reports Paul for bribery before departing.
Several months later, Rhiannon reappears to support Matt in a corruption investigation against Paul, agreeing to retract her statement in exchange for employment at Lassiter's. Bringing along her son Jackson, she stays with Karl and Susan Kennedy at Number 28. Rhiannon pursues a casual relationship with Mason but is disappointed when assigned cleaning tasks due to poor communication skills; Susan assists her in improving her speech. After Mason declines to let her move in with him, Rhiannon accepts a position at Lassiter's in Darwin.
Critics drew parallels between Rhiannon and the McQueen family from the British soap Hollyoaks, describing her as "racy" and noting that her makeover enhanced her role in storylines involving Paul Robinson.
Jayden Warley
Jayden Warley, played by Khan Oxenham, first appeared on 6 May 2013. His casting was revealed in February 2013, with subsequent returns in 2015 and 2018. Oxenham found the role demanding and enjoyed portraying Jayden’s complex personality.
Jayden’s narrative primarily focuses on bullying, especially targeting Bailey Turner. He manipulates events to evade repercussions, including blackmailing Bailey following a confrontation with Ben Fitzgerald. Jayden also sustains injuries attempting skateboard tricks, which leads to conflicts involving his mother Sue Parker.
In a significant storyline, Jayden vandalizes Sonya's Nursery intending to disrupt Paul Robinson’s mayoral press event. Paul pressures Jayden into confessing and negotiates with Sue to prevent legal charges. Despite continued aggressive conduct, Jayden reveals vulnerability when confiding in Brad Willis about family struggles.
Jayden and Bailey share a complicated friendship characterized by drinking and vandalism. Jayden tries to blackmail Paige Smith but is outsmarted when she records him, turning the situation against him. After a school fire incident, Jayden admits he framed Stephanie Scully, mistakenly believing he caused the fire himself.
Three years on, Jayden faces difficulty securing employment but lands a trial at Amy Williams' construction yard. Despite poor work performance and conflicts with colleagues, Amy offers him an apprenticeship, which he accepts. Following an accident involving falling concrete slabs caused by loosened ratchet straps—actions ordered by his mother—both Jayden and Sue are questioned by police and sentenced to six months in prison.
Terese Willis
Terese Willis, brought to life by Rebekah Elmaloglou, made her first appearance on 14 May 2013. Her casting was revealed on 7 February 2013, which led Elmaloglou and her family to move to Melbourne for the duration of filming. Before production began, she requested a change in how her character’s name was pronounced. Terese is introduced as Brad Willis’s (Kip Gamblin) second wife, joining him along with their teenage twins, Josh (Harley Bonner) and Imogen (Ariel Kaplan). Elmaloglou described Terese as both organized and relatable. The character’s debut involves meeting Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) under the impression of attending a job interview at Lassiter’s Hotel.
Imogen Willis
Imogen Willis, portrayed by Ariel Kaplan, first appeared on-screen on 20 May 2013. Announced alongside the introduction of the new Willis family on 7 February 2013, Kaplan secured the role on 18 February while she was studying at Melbourne’s 16th Street Actors Studio. Imogen is Brad and Terese Willis’s twin daughter and sister to Joshua. Kaplan described Imogen as self-assured and a positive example, comfortable with herself and not needing external validation. The character often experiences feelings of being eclipsed by her brother Josh’s swimming ambitions, a sibling dynamic characterized by Bonner as one of love and rivalry.
Josh Willis
Joshua "Josh" Willis, enacted by Harley Bonner, premiered on 20 May 2013. His casting was announced on 7 February 2013 and confirmed on 18 February. Encouraged by his agent to audition, Bonner admitted feeling anxious during filming as he and his on-screen family had to swiftly build their chemistry. Josh is the teenage son of Brad (Kip Gamblin) and Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou). Bonner portrayed Josh as ambitious and resolute, with a nuanced relationship with his twin sister Imogen (Ariel Kaplan). As an elite swimmer, Josh’s role required Bonner to dedicate considerable time to swim training at a local pool during production.
Walter Mitchell
Walter Mitchell (also known as Dave), played by Chris Haywood, made his debut on 17 June 2013. His casting was announced on 5 June, with further details revealed on 14 June. Walter is introduced as Sonya Mitchell’s (Eve Morey) long-lost uncle, previously believed deceased. Initially keeping his distance, Walter eventually discloses his identity and begins reconnecting with Sonya and her children, Nell and Callum.
Walter’s arrival stirs unease, especially with Sonya’s partner, Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney), who advises caution. He offers guidance concerning Callum but remains secretive about his own history. After settling in Erinsborough, Walter interacts with locals such as Sheila Canning (Colette Mann) and participates in community events. However, it soon emerges that Walter struggles with alcoholism and has been dishonest about his past.
Despite efforts to support his sobriety—including attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings—Walter battles addiction that leads to thefts from neighbors and local businesses. Following a theft from Sonya’s nursery, he plans to leave town but returns later to reimburse the stolen money. Walter then confesses that his true name is Dave; he had taken on the identity of the real Walter Mitchell after meeting him at a halfway house. After this admission, Dave leaves Erinsborough.
Hudson Walsh
Hudson Walsh, played by Remy Hii, made his first appearance on 28 June 2013. The casting was announced on 12 June 2013, with Hii joining the series after auditioning while unemployed and based in Melbourne, where Neighbours is filmed. Originally brought in for a recurring guest spot, positive audience feedback led to Hii being invited back for further scenes.
Hudson entered the storyline as a romantic interest for established character Chris Pappas (James Mason). Hii characterized Hudson as an empathetic and driven competitive swimmer who was beginning to explore life beyond his sporting goals. Additionally, Hudson became a competitor to Joshua Willis (Harley Bonner), with both being top swimmers in their local circuit. Hudson’s self-assurance is rooted in his innate ability and early encouragement from his parents, contrasting with Josh’s more aggressive competitive style.
The narrative surrounding Hudson includes intricate relationships and personal struggles: he dates Chris but faces difficulties with trust; he experiences chest pains linked to the use of performance-enhancing substances, causing tension and a temporary withdrawal from swimming. After stepping away from the sport, Hudson encounters further complications when he becomes involved in a hit-and-run incident connected to antagonist Robbo Slade. He eventually admits responsibility, explaining his actions were intended to protect Amber Turner from harassment. Hudson receives a four-year prison sentence.
While serving time, Hudson maintains a complex relationship with Chris, expressing affection through letters and video calls despite interruptions and misunderstandings. Their relationship ultimately ends when Hudson suspects Chris of seeing someone else, though Chris later clarifies that his behavior was driven by loneliness rather than infidelity.
Throughout his storyline, Hudson interacts with significant figures such as coach Brad Willis (Kip Gamblin), who supports him despite obstacles, and Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis), who offers a sponsorship deal contingent on Hudson committing to drug-free competition. His arc explores themes of redemption, self-improvement, and the pressures faced in professional sports.
Marty Kranic
Marty Kranic, portrayed by Darius Perkins, first appeared on 29 July 2013. Perkins, who had originally portrayed Scott Robinson in 1985, was initially signed on for a one-month stint. Marty is described as a "shady associate" of Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) with expertise in managing difficult situations. Perkins noted that this role allowed him to delve into a darker character than his previous work.
Paul enlists Marty’s help at a poker game to utilize his card-marking skills against Robbo Slade (Aaron Jakubenko). In return for teaching Paul how to use marked cards, Marty gains unrestricted access to Lassiter's executive suite and agrees to keep tabs on Robbo for leverage. Unable to penetrate Robbo’s games directly, Marty tries unsuccessfully to recruit Lucas Fitzgerald (Scott Major). After Robbo’s death in a hit-and-run incident, Lucas reveals that Marty had accused Robbo of cheating using marked cards. Marty denies any involvement in the accident but warns Paul not to implicate him, threatening consequences.
During police investigations, Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou) identifies Marty, who falsely accuses Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney) of being responsible for the hit-and-run. Several months later, Marty reappears attempting to blackmail Paul during his mayoral campaign and offers damaging information about Paul to his opponent, Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher). Karl declines the proposition.
Josie Lamb
Josie Lamb, played by Madison Daniel, made her first appearance on 12 August 2013. Daniel had previously taken on the role of Claudia Howard in Neighbours during 2012. Originally cast for a recurring part lasting ten months, Daniel returned in 2017 to reprise the character of Josie.
Introduced as a self-assured student and companion of Callum Jones, Josie developed feelings for him. Upon discovering Callum’s interest in Imogen Willis, she attempted to alter her looks and demeanor to resemble Imogen’s. This storyline tackled issues related to eating disorders, as Josie's restrictive dieting and over-exercising led to her collapsing from dehydration and malnutrition during a community fun run. The plot emphasized concerns about body image and mental well-being.
At school, Josie endured bullying due to her intellect, appearance, and having two mothers. Her bond with Callum transitioned from friendship into a romantic relationship after overcoming early misunderstandings. Josie’s mother, Ellen Crabb, was introduced as the lead investigator in a hit-and-run case involving Callum’s father, adding layers to their dynamic.
In efforts to win Callum’s admiration, Josie revamped her style and intensified her training regimen, raising worries from Callum’s mother, Sonya Mitchell. After fainting at the fun run and receiving a malnutrition diagnosis, Josie admitted her wish to imitate Imogen’s conduct. Following conversations about eating disorders with Imogen, Josie attended the school dance where she shared her first kiss with Callum, marking the start of their dating phase.
Their relationship faced challenges including misunderstandings and complications caused by Josie's allergy that forced her to return a puppy gifted by Callum. They experienced important milestones such as celebrating Valentine’s Day together and supporting one another when Callum left for a scholarship opportunity in the United States.
Josie also managed university life amid the separation of her parents, Ellen and Victoria Lamb. Upon returning, she uncovered Victoria’s romantic interest in Stephanie Scully and cautioned Steph to keep her distance while her parents worked on reconciliation. After various disputes involving Steph and an intervention order filed by Josie—later revealed as orchestrated by Ellen—the order was eventually revoked.
This storyline highlighted adolescent struggles, family relationships, and mental health themes within the Neighbours narrative.
Alek Pocoli
Alek Pocoli, portrayed by Damian De Montemas, first appeared on 9 September 2013. De Montemas's casting was announced on 30 August 2013. The actor mentioned that the role demanded a "hybrid" accent reflecting Alek's international upbringing; he avoided a pronounced Eastern European accent since Alek was educated in England and had lived in the United States. Alek is the estranged former husband of established character Vanessa Villante (Alin Sumarwata). His arrival in Erinsborough brings news that disrupts Vanessa’s life and provokes anger from her fiancé Lucas Fitzgerald (Scott Major). De Montemas enjoyed Alek's humorous side that antagonizes Lucas.
Alek finds Vanessa at Harold's Store and reveals their annulment was never finalized to prevent family embarrassment, meaning they remain legally married. He apologizes for his past actions and invites Vanessa to discuss matters privately. When Lucas learns about their marriage status, Alek—now wealthy—offers Vanessa $100,000 to relinquish any claim on his assets. Vanessa agrees, allowing them to complete the annulment process. Before departing for his fiancée, Alek references a hotel they stayed at in Tirana, Albania, marking their final goodbye.
Gemma Reeves
Gemma "Gem" Reeves, portrayed by Kathryn Beck, made her debut on 7 October 2013. Beck’s involvement was revealed in September 2013, with the character having been mentioned on-screen prior to her introduction. Beck characterized Gem as someone who challenges limits and is unpredictable. Gem is related to established characters Georgia Brooks (Saskia Hampele) and Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney). She arrives in Erinsborough aiming to reconnect with Georgia, whom she deeply admires. Georgia embraces Gem and persuades her to move into Toadie's residence, setting up forthcoming conflicts. A TV Week journalist labeled Gem a "hottie" and a "blonde bombshell."
Eric Edwards
Eric Edwards, played by Paul O'Brien, first appeared on 10 October 2013. O'Brien's casting was announced on 2 October 2013, with filming taking place during a break from a movie shoot in Jakarta. For the role, he grew a beard, which he maintained for the film project. Eric becomes involved in a legal matter as a client of local attorney Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney).
Eric alleges he sustained a back injury at the local gym due to a malfunctioning stepping machine. Brad Willis (Kip Gamblin) notes that an "out of order" sign had been posted on the equipment but later disappeared. Eric hires Toadie to represent him in suing the gym but withdraws the claim after it emerges that his injury was caused by a skiing accident. Toadie considers taking action against the ski instructor but discovers Eric was intoxicated during the incident and had been dishonest.
Later, Eric sues Toadie for negligence upon discovering that Brad's daughter, Imogen (Ariel Kaplan), had worked at Toadie's law firm during his case. When Eric's wife, Mandy (Emelia Burns), finds out about the lawsuit, she leaves with their daughter. Toadie and his wife, Sonya (Eve Morey), invite Eric and Mandy to lunch. A disagreement between Toadie and Sonya causes Eric and Mandy to reconsider their relationship. Eventually, Eric drops the lawsuit and reconciles with Mandy, who returns home.
Jacob Holmes
Jacob Holmes, enacted by Clayton Watson, arrived on 28 November 2013 as a grieving widower and single parent introduced through an online interaction with Sonya Rebecchi (Eve Morey). After a close call involving his son Elliott’s pram, Jacob entrusts Elliott to Sonya’s care, who supports him through his bereavement and offers him employment constructing a juice bar at her nursery, sparking hopes of romance. Jacob later kisses Sonya but soon regrets his actions.
Jacob reaches out to Sonya after reading her parenting blog, revealing that his wife Hannah passed away shortly after Elliott’s birth, leaving him without assistance. Sonya helps look after Elliott; however, when the child is hospitalized, Jacob’s absence nearly results in losing custody. Sonya arranges work for Jacob and encourages a connection between him and her husband, Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney).
Conflict arises when Hannah’s parents challenge Jacob for custody of Elliott. Jacob seeks legal support from Toadie while Sonya distances herself from him, urging Georgia Brooks (Saskia Hampele) to offer support instead. After Jacob kisses Sonya again, she confides in Toadie, who reacts with anger but continues aiding in custody negotiations. When Jacob suspects Toadie of leaking information to Hannah’s parents—who had hired a private investigator—he feels remorse upon learning the truth.
Although contemplating giving up custody, Jacob is persuaded by Sonya to continue fighting for Elliott. He eventually expresses romantic feelings toward Sonya, which she does not return. Subsequently, Jacob decides to move to Adelaide to be nearer to his in-laws.
