The latest TV Week has the following Neighbours plot teasers for the week Nov 27 - Dec1:


Piper's Pool Panic

A Celebratory Dip Goes Very Wrong.

Overwhelming fear grips Piper as she suffers a panic attack while swimming in this week's Neighbours. Will quick thinking be enough to save her from drowning?

When Piper (Mavournee Hazel) finds out a group of students have booked a beach house for schoolies week, she's keen to go along too.

For Piper, some fun in the sun with friends is just what the doctor ordered.

Life hasn't been the same since she awoke on a boat and somehow washed up on shore. Making matters worse, she now has a fear of water.

"Having suppressed the trauma, Piper hasn't dealt with her emotions," Mavournee, 21, tells TV WEEK.

In an effort to put the event behind her, Piper convinces Ben (Felix Mallard) and Xanthe (Lilly Van der Meer) to join her on the adventure.

Excited to have been allowed on the trip away, Piper decides to take a dip in the pool to cool off and celebrate.

"She jumps in, not giving any potential negative consequences a thought," Mavournee explains.

But the instant she hits the water, Piper realizes something isn't right.

She starts to flail, unable to control her body or her breathing. She's in the grip of a full-blown panic attack.

"It catches her off guard, and that's the scariest part for her," Mavournee explains.

For a moment, Ben and Xanthe are stunned, but quickly spring into action.

They'll need to act fast if they hope to rescue poor Piper from a watery grave.


[Trivia Time: In addition to acting and being in a band, Felix Mallard (Ben) is a champion fencer. He has competed at both State and National level]


To Catch A Killer.

As The Cops Close In, Mark And Tyler Hatch A Risky Plan.

He's the prime suspect in Hamish's murder. Now, time is running out for Mark to clear his name.

But without an alibi, Mark is in a bind. He's kept the mounting police pressure from his brother, Tyler. But he can no longer hide the truth.

Feeling guilty, Tyler offers to tell the police the full story about his run-in with Hamish.

But Mark won't allow it. If he were to make such a damning revelation, they'd surely pin the murder on Tyler.

In a panic, Mark comes up with a plan to find the killer themselves.

The pair are convinced Louise is behind Hamish's death. They think they'll be able to make her confess.

But to do that, they'll have to track her down first.

The Brennan brothers head into the bushland where Piper was found. They're convinced the woman is hiding out there.

But as the hours wear on, their search grows desperate. Can they find Louise and clear their names before it's too late?


Bully Behaviour.

Sheila's Childhood Tormentor Threatens Her Future.

Many years have passed since her schoolyard days. But it seems old wounds run deep when Sheila reveals a cruel bully once tormented her.

Xanthe encourages her grandmother, Sheila (Colette Mann), to confront her former nemesis, Joanne (Val Lehman).

She even organizes for Sheila to meet her one-time bully face-to-face.

But, despite young Xanthe's good intentions, the meeting is a disaster. Joanne hasn't changes at all and is no better than she was at high school.

Their encounter leaves Sheila so shaken, she makes a drastic decision about her one-woman show.

Digital Spy's story on Piper:


Neighbours pool horror sees Piper Willis nearly drown in shock scenes.

It's Ben to the rescue next week.

http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/46/...imoi2q-1-1.jpg

Neighbours has a terrifying incident lined up for Piper Willis as she nearly drowns in the pool next week.

Piper (Mavournee Hazel) is enjoying a carefree afternoon with her fellow teens when she jumps into the water and doesn't re-surface.

The shock moment comes as Piper spends time with Ben Kirk, Xanthe Canning and Yashvi Rebecchi, making plans for the future.

When Piper manages to get Xanthe and Ben on board with the idea of taking a holiday to the seaside after they graduate, she dives straight into the pool in celebration.

While underwater, Piper suffers a horrifying panic attack as memories of her recent water ordeal come back to haunt her.

The others are horrified as Piper doesn't come up again, which leads to Ben (Felix Mallard) playing the hero as he dives in and drags her to safety.

Piper swears Xanthe and Ben to secrecy after her panic attack, but they're so worried about her that they end up tipping off her mum Terese about what happened.

http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/46/...imoi2q-8-1.jpg

Although Piper promises Terese, Ben and Xanthe that she'll look after herself, she makes it very clear that she doesn't want her boyfriend Tyler Brennan to know.

They all agree to keep Tyler in the dark for now, but when Piper later has another attack in secret, is this a more worrying situation than she's letting on?

Digital Spy's article on Mark & Tyler:


Neighbours' Mark and Tyler Brennan hunt for Hamish Roche's REAL killer next week

But do they suspect the right person?

http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/46/...wuuenq-2-1.jpg

Neighbours fans will see Mark and Tyler Brennan take matters into their own hands next week, as they try to solve the mystery of Hamish Roche's death.

The brothers are both official suspects in the ongoing murder mystery, which began when Hamish was found dead in the Canning family's backyard two weeks ago.

Upcoming Neighbours episodes will see Mark (Scott McGregor) get suspended from work after he becomes the police's prime suspect in the case.

Tyler (Travis Burns) feels terrible when he hears the bad news and he seriously considers telling the police about his own clash with Hamish, wanting to take the heat off his brother.

http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/46/...wuuenq-1-1.jpg

Desperate to make sure that his younger sibling doesn't go to jail for a crime he didn't commit, Mark comes up with a desperate Plan B and suggests they should head off to find Louise McLeod.

Mark reckons that Louise is the real killer and will be able to tell them exactly what happened that night. Tyler also agrees that a trip away might do them both some good.

Treading carefully, Mark and Tyler search the bushland where Piper Willis was found after she went missing.

http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/46/...wuuenq-4-1.jpg

The pair work on the theory that Louise came ashore to help Piper after she jumped from the boat, so they look for clues to her whereabouts.

Could Mark and Tyler's trip help to solve the 'Who Killed Hamish?' case, or will it ultimately be fruitless?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Tuesday, November 28 at 1.30pm and 6pm on Channel 5.

Radiotimes.com article on Sheila:

Neighbours: Sheila Canning gets a blast from the past next week

Val Lehman guest stars alongside ex-Prisoner pal Colette Mann

http://media.immediate.co.uk/volatil...resize=620,413

Neighbours’ Sheila Canning comes face-to-face with an old enemy next week when she meets up with high school bully Joanne Schwartz.

But while the gobby granny might not be pleased at the prospect of seeing her again, it’s a treat for Prisoner: Cell Block H fans as Val Lehman is playing *Joanne, reuniting her with Colette Mann (aka Sheila) for the first time since they shared a cell as Bea Smith and Doreen Anderson over 30 years ago in the cult Aussie drama.

http://media.immediate.co.uk/volatil...resize=576,383

Preparing to tread the boards for her one-woman show, Sheila gives a read-through to some of the Ramsay Street residents as a rehearsal. As the performance is meant to be a tell-all journey through Mrs Canning’s colourful life, Susan Kennedy questions why there’s not much info on her school days – leading Sheila to open up about how she was bullied by mean girl Joanne.

When granddaughter Xanthe suggests Sheila contact her to get closure, the nosy neighbour dismisses the idea, clearly still traumatised by the intimidation that drove her to drop out of high school.

But Xanthe goes ahead and tracks down Joanne regardless and arranges a meeting between the two women…

http://media.immediate.co.uk/volatil...resize=576,383

Shaky Sheila is soon having a coffee and a catch-up with the poisonous pupil who ruined her teenage years – and nasty Joanne has not changed one bit. Mocking her for attempting a one-woman show and reminding the cut-up Canning about her disastrous attempt to tread the boards in high school, Joanne ends up pushing intimidated Sheila to cancel the performance.

Can anyone convince the blonde battle-axe to put the past behind her and rethink her decision to pull the plug? Is this the last we’ve seen of judgemental Joanne? Perhaps there’ll be a prison yard-style punch-up between the two women for old times’ sake…

http://media.immediate.co.uk/volatil...resize=576,383

Speaking earlier this year about joining Neighbours, Lehman said: *“It’s an interesting role because on Prisoner my character Bea was the protector of Colette’s character Doreen, whereas in this story we are very much at odds.”

Of their on-screen reunion, Mann added:*“It felt very comfortable working opposite each other again. We whipped through the scenes, maybe because the director didn’t want to mess with us!”

Lehman’s scenes as Joanne will be shown on Channel 5 on Friday 1 December at 1.30pm and 6pm.
