23-year-old Burns is from Bacchus Marsh, Victoria and has already kick-started an acting and modelling career.

Neighbours marks his first Australian television role, after appearing in The CW series SAF3 last year.

Burns said that the name of his character is coincidentally the name of his six-year-old nephew, saying: "It felt like an omen when I was told the name of the character and my nephew is convinced the role is based on him."

In an interview with Digital Spy in June, McGregor admitted that it would be good to meet some of Mark's family.

"I think it'd be really nice if we could meet some members of his family in the future," he explained. "Maybe it's something I'll speak to the writers about."

Could he be a new love interest for Imogen?

Could he be a new love interest for Imogen?

Imogen and Daniel share a kiss, so wouldn't surprise me if Daniel & Amber split up and Daniel and Imogen get together. Tyler is more Paige's age than Imogen's.

[lellygurl]

He reminds me of Mason... he could be a love interest for Imogen... ? Or, when Imogen and Daniel share the kiss, maybe for Amber? Interesting!

Looks like Tyler will be a new love interest for Paige.

Jenna Rosenow works better on her own when her character isn't paired with anymore.

think Daniel & Imogen will end up getting together. Amber will obviously find out about Daniel & Imogen's kiss.

I can't see Paige and Tyler together. Mark's brother?! I suppose they could meet not knowing until later.

I still like Amber and Daniel together.

Neighbours newcomer Tyler Brennan will arrive on Ramsay Street later this month and immediately make his presence known.

As previously announced, Tyler - played by Travis Burns - is the younger brother of Mark Brennan (Scott McGregor) and will arrive in Erinsborough looking for his sibling.

Tyler doesn't initially make the best impression on his new neighbours after an attempt to help Imogen Willis (Ariel Kaplan) lands him in trouble with the police.

After facing fresh heartbreak over Amber's decision to reunite with Daniel, Imogen vows to be more free-spirited and heads out to a toga party.

As the night goes on, Imogen gets progressively drunk and after all her friends leave, she is left passed out on the floor.

Waking up the next day, a disorientated Imogen meets Tyler, who is keen to help her get home safely. Barefoot and hungover, it is clear Imogen is in no fit state to walk home and so Tyler lifts her up and puts her on his motorbike.

Arriving back at her house, Imogen falls off the bike, hitting her head in the process. Imogen is then left to face the music as her father Brad and brother Josh question her whereabouts all night and also the bruise on her head.

The finger is quickly pointed at the 'stranger' who brought Imogen home on a motorbike, as a concerned Brad, Josh and Daniel are suspicious that he may have taken advantage of Imogen when she was drunk.

Although Imogen assures them otherwise, Daniel and Paige can't help but confront Tyler when they see him later. As the fight gets out of hand, they all end up in police custody...

Neighbours airs these scenes Monday February 23 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.

Does this Brennan comment about more of their family coming along, scream wedding? Or maybe their dad comes to town?
