I hope Ned and Elly don't get together, unless she changes dramatically.

We're still not over Steph Scully's impending exit, but Neighbours has announced a couple of cast changes to shake the show up a little.
Firstly, the Australian soap will be bringing back Ned Willis.
Actor Ben Hall first played the son of Beth Brennan and Brad Willis in a guest stint two years ago, and subsequently appeared in further episodes between August 2016 and February 2017. He was last seen accepting a job on the Gold Coast.
But after a lengthy absence, Ned is returning to Ramsay Street, surprising his step-mother Terese (Rebekah Elmaloglou) and half-sister Piper (Mavournee Hazel).
UK viewers will be able to see him from Wednesday, June 20 in the UK, and he will be involved in trouble almost from the outset – finding himself "embroiled in an altercation with a local".
"It's really nice to back around familiar faces and also some new ones and pick up where the character left off," Hall commented. "Ned is very complex, which makes him interesting and a lot of fun to play."
Before that happens, though, Neighbours is introducing a new character called Cassius Grady, played by Joe Davidson.
Cassius is described as a "gorgeous gardener" and a "sought-after resident on Ramsay Street".
"I'm really enjoying it, and there is a great sense of family here," Davidson said. "Everyone is so down-to-earth and friendly."
Cassius' first scenes air in the UK next week on Wednesday, May 23.
Neighbours airs on weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5
Returning Neighbours star Ben Hall has revealed some new information about his character Ned Willis's comeback to Erinsborough.
The actor took the time to reply to some fans who wanted to know if he was just reappearing as a guest star again, and it's good news: he's here to stay!

Ben's Ramsay Street alter ego Ned first popped up in 2016, with his storylines including his complex relationship with his dad Brad, his attraction to Brad's eventual wife Lauren, and his on-off relationship with Elly Conway (Jodi Anasta).
Ned left town in early 2017 after accepting a job on the Gold Coast, but it seems that hasn't worked out – as something brings him back to Erinsborough permanently.
And the news that he's sticking around means an interesting time for Elly and the family members left on Ramsay Street – half-sister Piper (Mavournee Hazel) and former stepmum Terese (Rebekah Elmaloglou).

Hi Lennie, welcome back, good to see you
Digital Spy article:
Neighbours' Ned Willis interrupts a fight as he makes a dramatic return to Erinsborough.
Ben Hall's character is coming back for good.
http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neig...-return-fight/
Neighbours has revealed a first look at Ned Willis's return to Erinsborough.
Ben Hall is reprising his role as Ned after more than a year away – and this time he's back as a permanent cast member.
Ned's reappearance comes just as tensions are running high on Ramsay Street due to Mishti Sharma being caught up in a sex tape ordeal.
Mishti is devastated when the intimate video that sleazy Dilhan Ozdil recently filmed of them gets uploaded online, becoming a big talking point in the local community.
Although Dilhan gets arrested for his revenge porn scheme, Mishti and her ex-boyfriend Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano) are both outraged when he gets released on bail.
Toadie Rebecchi explains to Leo that nothing will change unless Dilhan does something to revoke his bail, so Leo comes up with a sneaky plan to provoke Dilhan into an argument.
Leo hopes that Dilhan will get riled up into assaulting him and end up back behind bars, but it's actually Leo himself who gets out of control when he accidentally punches a passer-by who is a very familiar face – Ned.
As Ned settles back in, Piper and Terese Willis are both suspicious over his sudden return – certain that there's more to it than meets the eye.
Sure enough, Ned is later seen on the phone to an unknown person, promising that nobody knows the real reason he's back. What is he hiding?
Neighbours airs Ned's return on Wednesday, June 20 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.
