Neighbours actress Jackie Woodburne has admitted that she worried when she found out about an upcoming storyline involving her character Susan Kennedy.

The soap will see Susan and long-time husband Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher) face their latest challenge as a couple when she starts spending time with Jim Dolan (Scott Parameter), who is suffering from cancer.

Woodburne told Channel 5 that herself and Fletcher were slightly worried that their characters would split up as part of the storyline.

"When we heard about it, when we saw each other, we went, 'They're going to break us up. I think they're going to break us up. Oh no, now we're going to work with other people!'" she said.

"We both have the same attitude to the work. We're hungry for stories and we're hungry for new developments for the characters, so it's just something else to explore.

"[Susan's] challenge, I think, is going to be to find out who she is as one half of a couple, as opposed to being the hub of a wheel."

However, Woodburne added that she has high hopes that the couple will be able to get through their latest marriage crisis.

"If they can survive two affairs with 25-year-olds, I think they can probably survive anything," she declared.

Woodburne had previously said that she was "excited" about the upcoming storyline, due to begin on Channel 5 next week.

Neighbours schoolgirl Natasha Williams will continue her rebellious behaviour when she decides that she wants plastic surgery in a forthcoming storyline, a report has revealed.

The troublesome teenager, played by Valentina Novakovic, becomes "obsessed" with improving her appearance as she feels upset and insecure over her father Michael (Sandy Winton) rejecting her in the aftermath of her raunchy photo scandal, according to TV Week.

In scenes which air in Australia next week, Natasha will apparently be seen searching the internet for "cheap nose jobs" before stealing Michael's credit card in order to book herself in for the procedure.

Viewers will then be left to wonder whether Natasha will go through with the idea or whether she can reconcile with her dad before it's too late.

Earlier this year, Novakovic admitted that she would like her character to be "nicer" and realise she "needs to grow up and mature".

Meanwhile, Neighbours bosses recently announced that fans will be introduced to Natasha's long-lost aunt later this year.
