Soaps - Neighbours

Forget cringeworthy comedy between Karl and Janelle (a warm-up for pantomime season methinks) and celebrity cameos; for the next two weeks of Neighbours, gripping drama is firmly back on the agenda.

Next week Lou arrives back from Russia, but his strange behaviour (and an even stranger tattoo) baffles the residents. Elsewhere, Izzy, enraged with jealousy, threatens to reveal Paul’s darkest secret to Lynn – she knows he’s a bit of a lady-killer, but she doesn’t know the half of it.

First Fight Club, now The Tulip Touch; Bree finds a new friend, but her strange behaviour soon alarms the rest of the Timmins clan – could Erinsborough’s next villain be hiding behind those curly blonde locks?

Karl moves in with the Kinskis but his relationship with Susan is soon under strain. Dogged by nightmares of his night spent with Izzy, Karl confesses all to Susan, and suddenly their relationship is hostage to history - if you’re hoping for steady romance between Susan and Karl, then you’d best stick to UK Gold.

The Robinson offspring continue to be the source of problems as Elle, blinded by her passion for Dylan, concocts a reckless scheme which leaves her own life in danger. And after a terrifying few weeks, Katya finds friendly comfort in Max – but as they head for a weekend away, can the sideburned sleazebag resist temptation?
