Andrew Morley joins Neighbours

[Perdita]

Ramsay Street is fast becoming the next popular stop after Summer Bay. In recent years, Bob Morley (ex-Drew Curtis), Rebekah Elmaloglou (ex-Sophie Simpson) and Kip Gamblin (ex-Scott Hunter) have all joined the Neighbours clan, and now, Andrew Morley, who played Spencer Harrington on Home and Away, is set to move onto Australia’s most famous street.

Andrew’s manager, Craig McMahon, confirmed that he had commenced filming on one of Australia’s most popular dramas.

The Film & Television Studio International, of which Andrew is a former student, then announced the news of his new role on their website, stating “After his leading role on Home and Away, Andrew returned to Melbourne in November 2015, where he auditioned and won another series regular role, this time on long running iconic Australian series, Neighbours.”

This follows speculation that Andrew would be joining the Seven Network morning show, Sunrise as the new permanent Weather presenter. He then posted the following photo on Instagram, teasing his new role to his fans:


Adding fuel to the fire, Andrew’s bio on the popular photo-sharing app contains a link to a video of his time on Sunrise as the temporary Weather Presenter.


Harrington Brothers (Chris & Spencer)

Andrew first appeared on Home and Away in January 2013, alongside Kassandra Clementi, as Maddy Osborne. Johnny Ruffo later joined the cast as Andrew’s onscreen brother, Chris Harrington. After storylines including online grooming, getting caught up in a cult and relationships with Maddy, Evelyn and Sasha, Spencer left Summer Bay in April 2015 to take care of his ill father.

Sorry but I'm not a fan. Why leave H&A to join a smaller soap? (Or was he pushed from H&A?)

I wonder who he will be playing… Hope it isn't Ned Willis. Maybe they've recast Mason?

I'd say Ned Willis is a good bet.

I'd say Ned Willis is a good bet.

But he doesn't look anything like Natalie Imbruglia. He looks more like Lauren.

There is a similarity between Andrew Morley and a young, short haired Kip Gamblin pictured here:



Anyway, I don't really think they place that much importance on inherited looks when casting for soaps as long as it's within the realms of possibility.

Ned Willis is only a guess anyway; he could be playing someone else entirely.

Double post.

I just don't want him to be Ned haha. Besides, it wouldn't make sense to recast a mediocre actor with an even poorer actor.

@Dazzle, I see the resemblance in that image… :'(
