Willow (Mieke Billing-Smith)

Toadie Rebecchi's life changes forever on Neighbours next week as he discovers that he has a long-lost daughter he knew nothing about.

The shock revelation is one of many huge twists and turns ahead in Dee Bliss's comeback storyline, which will keep fans gripped over the next few months.

Toadie (Ryan Moloney) has already been rocked by the discovery that his 'dead' ex-wife is actually still alive after she turned up on his doorstep following a 13-year absence.

The next few episodes will see Dee settle back into Erinsborough and catch up with Toadie, checking into the local motel so that she can be close to him.

While Toadie takes all of Dee's explanations and excuses at face value, his wife Sonya is far more sceptical – as is Mark Brennan when he starts investigating the case.

Mark is convinced that Dee is hiding something big and he's given his first major clue when he realises that she has a mystery person staying with her in the motel room.

That unknown individual's identity is then revealed in shocking style when Toadie pays a visit to the motel and comes face-to-face with a teenage girl.

Toadie is baffled over who she is, until Dee reluctantly introduces him to his daughter Willow – played by young actress Mieke Billing-Smith.

How will Toadie react to the surprise revelation that Dee was pregnant when he drove her off that cliff all those years ago?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Tuesday, January 31 and Monday, February 1 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.

Neighbours teen Willow Somers makes another exit from Erinsborough next week after meeting her biological father.

Willow (Mieke Billing-Smith) seemed all set to stick around permanently and be raised by her "fake" dad Toadie Rebecchi, but everything changes when Mark Brennan manages to track down more of her real family.

Mark finds out that Willow's father Fergus Olsen (Andrew Percy) is based in Australia and he's actually a decent guy, unlike her con artist mum Andrea.

Despite being nervous, Willow agrees to a meeting with Fergus in the hope of getting some much-needed answers about her past.

When Willow's father Fergus arrives at The Waterhole in a wheelchair, he confesses to a wild past and admits that he snubbed his parental responsibilities after getting Andrea pregnant.

Since suffering a serious accident, he's managed to turn everything around and now has a happy family life with a wife and two daughters.

Toadie (Ryan Moloney) and Willow are both impressed by Fergus's open and honest attitude as he expresses his remorse for all of his past mistakes – and his desire to make them right.

Although Toadie doesn't want to lose Willow, he agrees to let her pay a visit to Fergus's place, with a view to staying if things work out.

Toadie also announces that he'll go with the troubled teen to help her settle in, leading to some emotional goodbyes as Willow bows out. Is this her happy ending at long last?

Neighbours brings back Fake Dee's daughter Willow Somers for another guest appearance next week.

Willow (Mieke Billing-Smith) reappears in Erinsborough for Toadie and Sonya Rebecchi's marriage vow renewal, hoping to support the happy couple on their big day.

Viewers have already seen Sonya (Eve Morey) start making plans for a surprise wedding to cement her recent reunion with Toadie.

This storyline will take centre stage in 2017's season finale episode, providing some heartwarming scenes to counterbalance the dark drama elsewhere in Erinsborough.

Sonya is determined to make sure that the ceremony is a total surprise for Toadie (Ryan Moloney) and she enlists the help of the Rebecchis to make sure that he stays in the dark.

Even Toadie's interfering mum Angie (Lesley Baker) is a source of support on the day, putting aside her previous animosity with Sonya.

When Willow turns up, Sonya can't help feeling slightly nervous about her presence – fearing that it's a bad omen after all of the trouble that Fake Dee caused at the start of the year.

Fortunately, it seems like Sonya's worries are far off the mark this time, with these pictures showing that it's a day full of joy and celebration for all concerned.

Neighbours return for Willow Somers as Fake Dee continues telling lies to Toadie Rebecchi
Willow is keen to keep an eye on her mum.

Neighbours brings back Fake Dee's daughter Willow Somers for another return stint next week.

Mieke Billing-Smith is once again reprising her role as Willow, who comes to Erinsborough to keep an eye on her mum's latest interactions with Toadie Rebecchi.

Toadie (Ryan Moloney) is surprised when Willow turns up unexpectedly on his doorstep, admitting that she wants to make sure Fake Dee – aka Andrea Somers – isn't up to her old tricks.

Willow tells Toadie that she doesn't want Andrea to cause him any more pain – and she also warns her mum that she hasn't forgiven her past misdeeds.

Willow's reappearance comes just as Andrea is revealing more information about her meeting with a mystery man called Ian at the Salamanca Markets in 2009.

The incident is a vital clue that Dee could still be alive, as the man confused Andrea with somebody else.

In her second hypnosis session, Andrea provides a clue which ultimately allows Mark Brennan to track down Ian.

Toadie then visits Ian with Andrea and they hear his story in full. Ian reveals that he used to know a woman called 'Karen', then was surprised to come face-to-face with Andrea, who looked just like her.

For the first time, Toadie finally starts to believe that 'Karen' could be Dee and he's desperate to know more. Unfortunately, Ian is quick to add that he lost touch with Karen years ago, as she fell in love with a man and moved to South Africa with him.

Later, Ian visits Andrea alone in her apartment and she thanks him for sticking to her version of the story. She also asks him to give her a mysterious photo, showing a woman who looks just like her, posing alongside Ian and another mystery man.

As the plot thickens, it seems that Andrea could genuinely be telling the truth about Dee being alive – but why is she asking Ian to lie about certain details?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, June 10, Tuesday, June 11 and Wednesday, June 12 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
