A descendent of Neighbours' Bouncer the dog is to be introduced to viewers.

The popular Labrador Retriever starred on the soap between 1987 and 1993. As part of Neighbours' 30th anniversary celebrations, Bouncer's female offspring will turn up in Ramsay Street as a stray before being taken in Lucy Robinson (Melissa Bell).

Producer Jason Herbison told the Sydney Morning Herald that 'Bouncer 2' will provide "a nice nod to history" and likely stay for some time.

"But if there is popular demand, it is possible Bouncer 2 could become a permanent fixture," he said.

"Bouncer had a few notable affairs when he was on the show so we are not exactly sure who he knocked up, but Bouncer 2 is definitely a direct descendent."

As well saving Madge from a house fire, the original Bouncer famously took the spotlight with a 1990 dream sequence while fantasising about marrying Clarrie McLachlan's dog Rosie.

"I don't know whether or not Bouncer's dream was a high point for the show or a low point," Herbison admitted. "It's still being discussed."

I love this idea! I hope the new Bouncer is made a permanent fixture in the show.

Neighbours has released a behind-the-scenes video showing the new Bouncer, who will be introduced on screen later this year.

As previously reported, a descendent of Bouncer the dog is to be introduced to viewers as part of the show's ongoing 30th anniversary celebrations.

The popular Labrador Retriever starred on the soap between 1987 and 1993, and Bouncer's female offspring will turn up in Ramsay Street as a stray before being taken in by Lucy Robinson (Melissa Bell).

The video sees James Mason, who plays Chris Pappas, filming a scene with Bell in which Bouncer 2 is shown for the first time.

The new Bouncer was also introduced to Kyle Canning's dog Bossy, although it remains to be seen how the two will get along.

Good, so Lucy is becoming more permanent.
I loved Bouncer, although I thought that dream scene of him with another dog was ridiculous years ago.

I'd love Lucy to become a permanent character.

I found Bouncer's dream hilarious!

Oh this is such a silly cute storyline!

Awww so Lucy is going back to New York. But at least Paul has agreed to keep Bouncer in his posh Lasiters penthouse suite.
