Neighbours' Brad Willis will discover that his daughter Imogen is suffering in silence with a terrible eating disorder this week.

Brad and Terese will be forced to recognise that they are partly to blame for Imogen's illness after she collapses as the strain of her personal issues become too much to handle.

Digital Spy recently chatted to Kip Gamblin, who plays Brad, to hear about his character's reaction to Imogen's problems, life at Neighbours, and Brad's unresolved issues with Lauren Turner.

How are you enjoying your role on Neighbours?
"I am loving it - it has been great. They are a very warm and friendly bunch. It is a very established show and I feel privileged to be a part of it. It has been a really great seven months so far."

How did the role come about? Is a part on Neighbours something you've always thought about?
"Well, I actually auditioned for an earlier role – one of the Turners. The casting agent for Neighbours said to me that there was another role coming up that I might be suited for. I had a couple of call backs for that one and they decided they wanted to bring me in."

Is it more daunting when you're playing a character who the viewers already knew beforehand?
"It can and it can't be. You can get too involved in trying to impersonate or trying to do justice to another person's work, so you kind of have to run with your own idea of what the character is. I try not to think too much about living up to expectations. As an actor, you have to believe in what you do and I think if I make him as real and as natural as possible, then that is the main thing."

What sort of reaction have you had from viewers?
"Well, everyone is excited! I've been in TV now for a long time. I've been working on a pretty broad range of TV shows and generally everyone is very positive about seeing me on TV again."

Has your time at Home and Away helped you to be well-equipped for Neighbours, or are the two shows quite different?
"Well, it is a genre that actually not a lot of people can handle. Working in a series where we are filming five or six episodes a week, I guess that having already been a show with that many episodes and that type of pace has sort of prepared me in a way where I know what is expected of me."

Imogen has an eating disorder and UK viewers will see Brad and Terese finally discover the truth about it this week. How will this impact on Brad and the family?
"I think as a father finding out that one of your children is suffering from a disease like that is a very extreme scenario but also quite prevalent in this day and age. A lot of girls have a lot of pressure on them with body image and those sorts of things, and it is not uncommon for them to be exposed to these issues. I played it in the sense that any father would. He loves his daughter very much and it is a serious disease and problem. Imogen is such a high achiever and it is confronting. It shows the complexity of the family and the relationships.

"Ariel (Imogen) did lots of research. She's a very amazing young woman for an 18-year-old. I have worked with a lot of actors now over the years and Ariel comes up with some crackers. She is a very wise young lady."

Brad realises Imogen is very sick.


Does Brad blame himself at all for Imogen's problems?
"I think any parent would ask questions why. It is hard not to think, 'Is it my fault?' 'Is it an attention-seeking thing?' 'Am I not showing her enough attention?' Brad is quite swept up with Josh's swimming training but by no means does that mean he is not interested with his daughter's life. Imogen has just always been the easier one. She's an A-grade student, she's intelligent, she's smart, but sometimes these things can spring out under the least expected circumstances."

Imogen often feels neglected in the family in comparison to her twin brother Josh. Could we see this start to change?
"Yeah, I have actually been feeling that from different people and it seems to be the viewers' perspective that they don't pay her much attention. I think the writers, when they created these characters, certainly thought that it could come across that they are not concerned with her, or that they ignore her."

Will this rock his relationship with Terese, or, will they unite in their efforts to get her the help she needs?
"I think they love each other enough to sit down and sort it out for the sake of their daughter and her health and success in life. I think Brad and Therese have a very good relationship in the sense that they can talk to each other and discuss things from an equal standing and then make the right choices like most parents try to do."

Over here in the UK, we have just seen Robbo die as a result of the hit and run incident. Imogen and Josh are both suspects - does Brad believe one of his children could be capable of this?
"I don't think so. Not really. Not his own children."

Brad and Lauren's paths cross again.

Brad and Lauren's paths cross again.


Lauren clearly has unresolved feelings for Brad. Is he aware of this?
"She has, yes. But no, he is completely unaware! He obviously has a connection with her in the sense that they were good friends and she is the girl next door that he has a history with. At the moment, he is very swept up in his own family life but I definitely think there is a flame there because they were such good friends. There are a lot of unresolved feelings."

Does he feel the same way?
"Well, let's just wait and see…"

Brad and Terese have another daughter called Piper who is at boarding school - would you like to see her brought in at some point?
"Yes, I would love to! I think some of the viewers will be surprised to see some of the storylines, which I can't actually reveal to you. Let's just say that there are some complexities to the scenario!"

We know that there was a big Neighbours party recently where you were all told about future storylines. Are you excited about what's coming up for the Willis family in the longer-term?
"I am! I am very, very excited. I think for the first six months when you have brought a family in like that, it is quite intense and like you said, the scrutiny of the characters and what is going on there. But now I feel like because we have got that six month period over with, we can start getting into some really meaty storylines and I am really looking forward to the next twelve months there. It is going to be great. Especially in regards to children and past scenarios, and families and how people deal with unexpected issues that arise in family situations. I think that is where the crux of the great drama on the show is - those family interactions."

Neighbours' Brad Willis will leave son Josh in a difficult situation when he resigns as his swimming coach in an upcoming storyline.

Brad's drastic decision comes following Josh's lack of interest in his swimming training as he becomes distracted by a more lavish lifestyle.

As Josh's (Harley Bonner) public profile starts to build, he becomes increasingly focused on photoshoots and fame rather than his training, which infuriates Brad (Kip Gamblin) and concerns his girlfriend Amber.

When Josh refuses to take any responsibility for his poor performance in his swimming sessions, Brad's patience finally runs out and he fires Josh just a week before selection trials begin for the Commonwealth Games.

Brad's actions will undoubtedly leave Josh in a difficult position, but when Terese takes a softer approach and discovers the real reason behind Josh's behaviour, will Brad change his mind?

A dramatic few weeks for Brad Willis kicks off on Neighbours next Monday (June 9) as he shares a secret kiss with his old flame Lauren Turner as they continue to search for their long-lost daughter.

Brad and Lauren's intimate moment has the potential to cause big trouble for the Turner and Willis families, but that's not the only twist in store for the former couple as upcoming episodes will see the long-awaited arrival of their daughter Paige, played by Olympia Valance.

Digital Spy recently caught up with Kip Gamblin, who plays Brad, to hear more about his character's future.

What has the long-lost daughter storyline been like to explore?
"I really love it. It's great to have a bit of drama! I think the story also shows that Brad has got some integrity because he wants to be a decent father. He really wants to find his daughter and be there for her.

"There are scenes coming up where Brad and Lauren go to Adelaide to search for their daughter, and I really enjoyed those ones in particular. It was almost like we were doing an investigative show in those scenes, which I really enjoyed. Kate Kendall and I had a great time getting out of the studio, out of our comfort zone and into the great unknown."

At the moment Brad is very focused on the search, while Lauren has given up. Why do they feel so differently about the situation?
"It's been such an emotional rollercoaster ride for Lauren and it's been so disruptive to her family. From Lauren's point of view, it's been too much and a real drain for her, so she's given up. I think it's nice that Brad is the one who is taking the initiative and showing how much this means to him."

Why isn't Brad confiding in his wife Terese about what he's up to?
"Brad has realised that Terese isn't really supporting his desire to find his daughter. In order to keep up a peaceful front at home, Brad has decided to take the search on himself and do it without telling anyone else.

"This situation has been tearing away at everyone's peace of mind, so Brad doesn't want that to continue. He'd prefer to come home with some great news and keep everyone else out of it until then."

Brad and Lauren share a kiss in Adelaide next week. Were you surprised when you found out that would happen?
"I was a bit surprised, because I think Brad is a faithful husband. In this case, it's been an emotional couple of days for Brad and Lauren. He's just trying to be a good friend to her, as Lauren is so upset and he goes to comfort her.

"When you look at the scene, nobody really initiates the kiss - it's just a moment where they fall into each other's arms. I don't think either of them mean to be underhand or unfaithful, it's just something that happens when they're very emotional."

Does that mean they won't have an affair?
"I don't think they will, but you never really know in Neighbours and there is a lot of history between the two characters. They're quite close, so who's to say what will happen? They definitely have a bit of an old flame with each other, but then I think they both also love their current partners."

Terese has to find out about the kiss at some point! Could her marriage to Brad survive that?
"I hope so, but knowing Terese, it will be quite scary because she's a tough cookie! I think Brad will definitely be on the receiving end of a semi-tornado at some point! The truth has to come out sooner or later, so I think the viewers are going to have to hold onto their hats for that one!"

What has your new on-screen daughter Olympia been like to work with so far?
"Olympia is fantastic. She's a bit of a wildfire and she definitely has a lot of personality! Olympia is a very gregarious young lady, which is nice because it means that she's settled in very quickly. She definitely speaks her mind too. The character on screen is not far from Olympia in real life - she's a firebrand!

"At first Paige keeps her identity a secret, but eventually of course it's going to come out. When Brad finds out that Paige is his daughter, I think we'll see again that he's a good guy - he wants to be the best he can be for her in the circumstances.

"Of course people will be a bit hurt and angry that they didn't find out who Paige was straight away, but Brad is a pretty understanding guy and I'm sure he'll make the best of a bad situation."

Do you think Imogen and Josh will welcome Paige into the family?
"I think it will be quite difficult. They're teenagers and the Willises are a close-knit happy family already. I think accepting a situation like this would be difficult for most teenagers, so it definitely won't be smooth sailing in the Willis house for a while. But with a lot of love and understanding, I think Imogen and Josh will come to accept that Paige is a part of the family."

Do you know of any plans to bring Doug and Pam Willis back into the show again following their recent visit?
"I really hope that happens. Sue Jones who plays Pam is a fantastic actor and so strong. It's the same with Terence Donovan who plays Doug - he's such a lovely guy to work with and has such a lot of experience. I think they would be a great addition to the main cast. It'd be great if they could come back and do a lot more."

How do you feel about playing a character who has such a strong history within the show?
"It's great. It is quite challenging to take over a role that has been established before, but you can't worry too much about trying to be like the Brad of old. It's important to focus on who Brad is now. I enjoy a challenge and I've enjoyed every moment that I've been here, so I hope the viewers do too!"

Brad has two other children - Ned and Piper. Are you hoping they'll be brought in?
"I wouldn't be surprised if they are! It's great that those characters are out there and they can possibly be brought in. I'd be quite excited for Ned and Piper to come in, as it'd allow us to run stories with other Willis characters. That'd be fantastic."

A lot of the fans have noticed a chemistry between Terese and Paul Robinson! How would you feel if that was ever explored more?
"I've seen that chemistry as well! They've got some similarities in their characters, as they're both quite ambitious and business-like. Paul is also a bit of a flirt and he hasn't got the greatest history with women, but I'm sure he'd meet his match in Terese!"

Are you hoping to stick around on Neighbours for a long time?
"I am - I really hope so. I'm really excited that we're coming up to the show's 30th anniversary and I've been hearing that we have some fantastic things planned for that next year, so I'd very much like to be a part of it. The producers are keeping their plans for the anniversary quite close to their chests at the moment, but let's just say there's going to be a few surprises…"

Neighbours schoolteacher Brad Willis will resort to unscrupulous methods as he desperately tries to keep his son Josh out of jail.

Brad (Kip Gamblin) takes a drastic step after Chris Pappas is admitted to hospital following a shock seizure, which makes the case against Josh look more serious than ever.

With Josh (Harley Bonner) facing a possible prison sentence for his 'coward punch' attack on Chris, his lawyer Toadie Rebecchi suggests trying to delay the upcoming court hearing until they have a firm answer over what is wrong with Chris.

The only problem with Toadie's plan is that a defeated Josh refuses to cooperate as he just wants the case to be over with.

Still determined to help his son, Brad decides to find another way of securing an adjournment and realises that crucial evidence 'going missing' would guarantee this.

Despite the ethical implications, Brad takes a look through Josh's evidence case file and steals his lab report from the folder.

A Neighbours insider teased: "Will Brad's actions help his son or make everything worse? One thing's for sure, there are big consequences for Imogen when Toadie thinks she is responsible for the missing evidence and fires her."

Neighbours airs these scenes next week on Eleven in Australia and late November on Channel 5 in the UK.

What a family eh.
A son who is a screw up. A shrew of a wife who reads Laurens journal, and then blames all of her sons actions on everyone but her beloved son. A spoilt brat of a a daughter who thinks the world owes her a living because she`s so perfect.in her own litle world.
And now there`s Brad who steals evidence because he doesn`t like how his sons trial is going. And ignoring the fact that a young man nearly lost his life because of his son. Not to mention Brad is still lusting after Lauren and uses his newly found daughter as an excuse to be around Lauren.
Stick with the Turner family Paige...they`re better than the Willis family by miles.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Desperate dad
Brad breaks the law in order to save Josh from an almost-certain jail stint.


Josh’s sentencing hearing is fast approaching and as the Willises fear the worst, Brad prepares to take desperate action to try and keep his son out of prison. From the moment he realised he was the one who drunkenly assaulted Chris (James Mason), Josh (Harley Bonner) has been utterly consumed by guilt.

As Chris battles with his injuries from the attack, Josh is happy to take whatever punishment he is given. As far as he’s concerned, it’s the least he deserves. At the same time, he’s determined to do whatever he can to make life easier for Chris. Respecting Chris’ wishes, Josh tries to steer clear and give Chris a chance to recover.

When Chris’ job at the garage comes under threat, Josh secretly steps up to try to save it but Josh’s thoughtful plan is derailed, on upcoming Neighbours, when he has an accident while lending a hand at the garage. He’s rushed to hospital but tries to stick to the cover story that he was involved in a skateboarding accident. When the truth of Josh’s actions comes to light, an annoyed Chris thinks Josh’s actions are an effort to seek forgiveness.

Nate (Meyne Wyatt) knows that Josh is trying to absolve his own guilt, so he tracks down Josh and tells him that nothing can undo the punch – all he can do is accept the consequences of his actions and Josh plans to do just that.

While Toadie (Ryan Moloney) advises delaying Josh’s sentencing hearing until Chris is out of hospital, Josh refuses, much to the dismay of his family. Reeling from Josh’s determination to punish himself, Brad (Kip Gamblin) enlists Imogen’s (Ariel Kaplan) help to see if there might be another legal avenue to push for an adjournment.

Imogen rattles off a list of ways this might happen, such as important evidence going missing but none of the options she comes up with apply to Josh’s case. Brad is greatly disheartened by the news but once alone he decides to take matters into his own hands. In an urgent and poorly thought out move, Brad steals Josh’s lab report from his evidence folder. It’s the last resort for a desperate father determined to do the best thing for his son no matter what it takes, but the consequences could be disastrous.

I actually prefer the Willis family to the Turners as I find them more interesting (apart from Josh). I used to love Terese, although she's unfortunately become more unlikeable recently.

I agree about Terese. She always used to be bossy, but now she`s getting more unpleasant by the episode.
Maybe that`s why she`s wearing a lot of low cut tops and dresses lately.....to entice Brad back.

Neighbours doctor Karl Kennedy finds his life in danger after Brad Willis makes a terrible mistake that has huge repercussions.

Karl (Alan Fletcher) is rushed to hospital and diagnosed with a burned oesophagus after he accidentally drinks a toxic chemical that Brad (Kip Gamblin) has placed in an empty water bottle.

The story kicks off after Terese and Brad find themselves rekindling their relationship following months of difficulty for the pair.

Terese is supportive of Brad's newfound motivation to get back into making surfboards, and is so impressed by what she sees when visiting him in the Man's Shed that the pair find themselves having a spontaneous moment of passion.

However, their romantic encounter is cut short when Brad accidentally spills one of the toxic chemicals used to make the boards. Although he manages to clean up the mess, his temporary solution is to store the offending chemical in an empty water bottle.

Later on, disaster strikes when Karl, who has dropped by, places his water bottle next to the contaminated one, and unknowingly picks up the wrong bottle when he leaves.

When Brad realises the potentially dangerous mix-up, he urgently tries to track Karl down, but Karl doesn't answer his phone.

Meanwhile, having consumed the poisonous drink, Karl is struggling to breathe, but is found by Josh and rushed to hospital.

Once at the hospital, the staff diagnose a burned oesophagus, but Susan is badly traumatised by the experience and takes her anger out on Brad.

Although Terese assures her husband that Susan is only temporarily shocked and will calm down, things go from bad to worse for Brad that night when Susan makes it clear that she won't be forgiving him any time soon.

Neighbours airs these scenes on Tuesday, February 3 and Wednesday, February 4 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.

Poisoned friendship
Brad's careless error comes at a very high price.

Following months of turmoil involving his ailing marriage and the discovery of his love child with Lauren, Brad has finally found on outlet for lowering his stress levels - crafting and refurbishing surfboards.

However, Terese's (Rebekah Elmaloglou) overzealous support for her husband's hobby quickly leads to a grave mistake which will have long-lasting ramifications.

With the Willis marriage now back on track, Terese is overcome with passion to see Brad (Kip Gamblin) revelling in his pastime. Suddenly in the mood for a spontaneous romantic encounter at the Men's Shed, Brad and Terese's ardour is interrupted when Brad accidentally spills some toxic chemicals he's using to manufacture a board. Although he cleans up the mess, Brad's careless decision to deposit the spilled chemicals into an empty water bottle has serious repercussions when a visiting Karl (Alan Fletcher) picks up the bottle thinking that it's the water that he'd been drinking from an identical bottle.

By the time a frantic Brad has discovered the mistake and contacts Karl, it's already too late as Karl has unknowningly swallowed the poisonous resin and is suffering breathing difficulties!

As Karl is diagnosed with a burned oesophagus, Susan (Jackie Woodburne) is so traumatised by her husband's plight that she unleashes her anger on Brad, screaming that she'll never forgive him for almost killing the man she loves.

While Terese is quick to reasurre a shattered Brad that Susan is shocked and not thinking clearly, it soon becomes apparent to Brad that Susan will not forgive him. Their long-standing personal friendship appears irreparably fractured and the tension quickly transfers to the professional arena when Brad allows Terese to petition Susan to give him time off from his school-teaching duties for a holiday in Canada. Susan's attack on Terese knows no bounds as she harshly questions Brad's devotion to his career.

Abandoning the Candanian trip to focus on his job and make amends with Susan, Brad confidently presents his 2015 teaching program for Susan's appraisal. As school principal and Brad's boss, Susan claims she's disgusted with Brad's lacklustre work and accuses him of prioritising his precious surfboards over teaching and his students' welfare.

Fed up with the tension, Brad openly accuses Susan of blaming him for hurting Karl, pushing Susan to announce that Brad isn't cut out for teaching!

Disillusioned with the job, Brad's inspiration to succeed crashes and burns, leaving him humiliated and unable to fight back when Susan publicly undermines him again. Having had enough, Brad makes the spontaneous and heartbreaking decision to quit and escape the nightmare that his teaching career has become.

Passion never dies
Torn by his feelings for Lauren, Brad reveals her dead husband's guilty secret.

Despite their steamy romantic history together and the fact that they still clearly hold a torch for one another, Brad and Lauren have so far managed to resist temptation. How much longer can they keep lying to themselves about their true feelings?

Following Matt's (Josef Brown) tragic death, Terese (Rebekah Elmaloglou) has been increasingly wary of Lauren's (Kate Kendall) hold over her husband, Brad (Kip Gamblin).

Brad and Lauren were each other's first true love and everyone knows you never forget your first, so a suspicious Terese can't help but worry that Brad's old feelings will begin to resurface.

For his part, Brad claims to just be looking out for Lauren - just as he promised Matt he would do - but there's no doubt he sees Lauren as something more than a friend.

Desperate to keep Lauren away from her husband, Terese is thrilled when she notices a hint of chemistry between Lauren and Robin (Max Brown), Lassiter's new graphic designer.

Terese organises for Lauren to show Robin the local art gallery scene and is thrilled when they hit it off but the arrival of Robin in Lauren's life clearly bothers Brad.

He claims he's just being protective of Lauren but when Brad's territorial feelings overcome him and he orders Robin to stay away from Lauren, he's surprised to discover himself acting like a jealous boyfriend.

Terese is similarly alarmed but when Brad apologises and reaffirms his love for his wife everything appears to be settling down - for a little while.

When Terese continues her less than subtle attempts to set Lauren and Robin up, Brad confronts her about her meddling and the couple argue ferociously.

Overhearing the exchange and witnessing the growing tension between Brad and Terese, Paige (Olympia Valance) admits to her brother that she thinks Brad would be happier with Lauren.

As Brad and Terese's marriage continues to unravel, Lauren struggles to cope as the date of her wedding anniversary looms.

She's tempted by the offer of a date with Robin but is then quickly overcome with guilt for even thinking about moving on from Matt.

Matt was one of only two men Lauren has ever loved - the other was Brad - so getting over him won't be easy.

Brad, frustrated that Lauren is putting her dead husband on a pedestal, lets slip that Matt was not the saint Lauren thinks he was.

With the cat out of the bag, Brad is forced to admit Matt's sordid tryst with Sharon Canning (Natasha Herbert) - and Lauren's world is turned upside down.

The man she thought she could trust more than anyone had betrayed her.

With his memory now tainted, what's to stop Lauren seeking comfort in the arms of ther only other man she ever loved?

If Terese is going to save her failing marriage, she'd better be prepared for a fight?

Also ahead on Ramsay Street, Brad Willis will find himself overcome with jealousy after Lauren Turner befriends a man who is working for Terese.

When Terese hires a graphic designer called Robin to create a new logo and brochure for the hotel, he immediately hits it off with Lauren due to their common appreciation of art.

Later, after Terese witnesses a strangely intimate moment between Lauren and Brad (Kip Gamblin), she decides to make the most of Robin's interest in Lauren and organises for her to show him the local gallery scene.

As the pair continue to bond, Robin is so impressed by Lauren's drawings that he asks her to contribute to the brochure, leaving her delighted.

Terese is pleased that her plan seems to be working, but when Brad witnesses Lauren and Robin laughing together, he isn't so pleased and queries Terese about the situation.

Terese is worried that Brad is unusually concerned by Lauren's enjoyment of Robin's company and voices her concerns, prompting Brad to reassure her that he's only looking out for Lauren, just as he promised Matt he would.

Unfortunately, Brad's territorial feelings continue to overcome him and he later approaches Robin, warning him to stay away from Lauren.

Robin is rattled by Brad's words and quickly leaves, while Brad is also left shaken at his own behaviour. Why is he acting so jealous?

Imogen's father Brad will also face an unexpected turn in his love life when he shares an electric moment with his ex-flame Lauren Turner.

Brad's marriage to Terese will be hit by fresh problems following the revelation that Paige was trying to reunite him with her mother Lauren.

Although Paige apologises to a hurt Terese, it is clear that the damage has already been done and later Brad (Kip Gamblin) quizzes his wife over whether she was using Mary to get rid of Paige.

When Terese admits that she was, a big row between the couple ensues and Brad is left to ponder how he is going to juggle his marriage whilst being a dad to Paige.

Later, Brad's dilemma is brought to the fore when the lights go out at Number 32 and a spooked Paige sends him a text requesting urgent help.

Despite knowing that Terese wouldn't be happy if she found out he'd gone to Paige's aid in the middle of the night, he decides to head over anyway.

As Brad rushes to the Turner backyard, he finds himself colliding with Lauren, giving them both a fright.

The pair quickly laugh the incident off, but as the laughter subsides, they find sparks flying as they cling together with their eyes locked, unaware they are being watched by a horrified Amber. Could Brad be tempted by Lauren?

Neighbours' Brad Willis will finally give into his feelings for Lauren Turner later this month as he makes a huge decision which will change his life forever.

With his marriage to Terese at breaking point, Brad (Kip Gamblin) spends an easy afternoon with Lauren as they prep their jam for sale and their spark between them becomes clearer than ever.

However, when Terese skips an alcohol anonymous and heads over to Susan's, she is cross to find Lauren then and her anger increases when she learns about the quality time Lauren and Brad have been spending together.

After Brad learns from Imogen that Terese did not attend her session, he confronts her but a huge fight soon ensues as she blames Brad for her drinking.

When Brad realises he can't pay for a motel room because his wallet is in his jacket at Lauren's, he soon finds himself heading over to her house.

Emotionally vulnerable after his fight with Terese, Brad is drawn to Lauren and he starts to open up to her about his feelings, admitting that she inspires him.

Unable to deny the chemistry between them any longer, Brad and Lauren finally give into their passion and kiss, but what does this mean for his marriage to Terese?

Brad Willis is about to make another controversial decision on Neighbours as he moves in with his old flame Lauren Turner.

The show's latest trailer - which can be viewed above - sees Brad (Kip Gamblin) set tongues wagging on Ramsay Street by moving out of his motel and going to stay with Lauren instead.

Brad insists that it's strictly a temporary move as the conditions in his motel room have become too difficult to live with. However, not everyone is convinced by Brad's claims that he'll be keeping things strictly platonic with Lauren - least of all his estranged wife Terese.

The new promo also shows Naomi Canning's relationship with Paul Robinson hit the rocks, after she discovers that he has framed Josh Willis by having illegal peptides planted on him.

Paul is out for revenge after discovering that Josh and Naomi have slept together, but his petty act may just spell the end of his troubled romance.

Neighbours airs these scenes in a fortnight's time on Channel 5 in the UK and this week on Eleven in Australia.

I was annoyed at today's episode (something that's becoming a habit) when Josh asked Brad if moving in with Lauren was the message he wanted to be sending Terese. Brad of course wasn't bothered, but Josh could easily have stopped it by telling Brad that he didn't want his mother getting that message. At least Amber had the grace to look uncomfortable about the idea (which, of course, was roundly ignored by everyone else).

I just can't get over how selfish Brad and Lauren continue to be. They don't even appear to care how the situation is affecting their kids. Imogen wasn't in today's episode but we know she'd have been horrified at Brad moving in with Lauren. Are we seriously supposed to believe Brad can't find anywhere more suitable to stay in a big city?

At least Sheila sided with Terese, and even Saint Susan thought the move a bad idea. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u55/BJ_BOBBI_JO9/Emotions%20feelings%20moods%20related/taptaptap_sml.gif

I wouldn't say Terese has been too nice... I mean.. she did go a little crazy several times. Whereas Lauren kept it together even through the death of her husband, Matt.

It's about to get very hot in Erinsborough.

Neighbours has continued to tease its dramatic fire week with a new promo hosted by Kip Gamblin, along with a special guest in the form of Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher)


https://youtu.be/ubrZAJRbJCo

The video sees Gamblin go behind the scenes of the blaze at Erinsborough High, which will see his character Brad Willis at the centre of the drama as he's left with a terrible decision to make.

With Terese Willis and Lauren Turner both in danger, Brad will have to choose between his estranged wife and his new partner.

Check out another fire promo, released earlier this week, below:

I thought the way Terese handled seeing Lauren was really responsible! She has said she wants to put what happened behind her, focus on her grandchild and forget what happened in the fire and you can tell she wasn't faking. This is the Terese we know and love (well, I like her at least :p)

Lots of people "go a little crazy" when they suspect their long-term partner is cheating on them.

I think Lauren kept it together waaaay too easily when the husband she professed to love died suddenly. It barely inconvenienced her!


Terese is like a drama queen and I'm glad Brad is with someone he loves, not someone he stays with for the sake of the children.

I don't think anyone expected Brad to stay with Terese after he stopped loving her. It's the way it's been done - with Terese's natural feelings of betrayal being painted as unreasonable, and Brad and Lauren's almost complete lack of guilt at the hurt they've caused - that's the problem for me.

Disaster will strike on Neighbours next month as a fire breaks out at Erinsborough High, leaving a number of Ramsay Street residents in danger.

The blaze will start on the day of a huge protest at the school, which sees the locals stage a sleepout in the building after hearing that the council plans to close it down.

Brad Willis (Kip Gamblin) is one character at the centre of the drama when he is left with a terrible decision to make after realising that both his estranged wife Terese and his new lover Lauren have failed to escape the burning building.

Following their discovery that a fire was spreading, Lauren will attempt to follow Brad out of danger, but instead decides to head back to get a terrified Terese.

Although Lauren does her best to persuade Terese to move out to safety, a massive explosion soon rocks the corridor, prompting the lockers to fall down and pin both women to the ground.

Realising that Lauren and Terese are still trapped inside, Brad bravely decides to head back to the place where he saw them last and eventually finds them unconscious.

Brad is still feeling guilty about his decision to save Lauren in the fire before Terese. Not only has Terese been injured, the relationship with his kids has been damaged.

I love the fact Lauren starts to worry. And I'm not saying that because of the fire, but they have been so focused on their relationship and completely throwing anyone else feelings aside that they deserve to know how it feels. I hope Lauren gets a small look into how Terese felt.
It says a lot that the only person they confide in about their relationship and to justify their actions is Paige, the only family member who fully supports it.

To be fair, it wasn't Brad's fault that Terese was unconscious when he tried to lift the locker off her so she doesn't realise that he did so. He needed to go for help to free Terese, so it made sense to carry Lauren out.

However, I do think if he'd had to make an outright choice he'd have chosen Lauren - but that isn't how the scene went down.

That's exactly how I saw things. I really don't like Brad but it was unfortunate the Terese didn't appear to be conscious when he tried to lift the locker off her and get her out - and then she woke up in time to see him carrying Lauren out....and he did go back in for Terese... But like you, I think he definitely would have went for Lauren first.

So you've been with someone for a long time, you split up with them and move on with someone else (and Im not saying its right the way it happened) both are in danger but you SHOULD pick the person youve spent most of your time with and not the person you're in love with?????

The fact that many posters here think Brad should have rescued Terese before Lauren just goes to show how strongly lots of the people detest Lauren's behaviour and feel that Terese is the victim. I doubt if this is reaction the writers intended!

Yes it was, the end sentence just sort of went with the theme of everyone else..... I think by the time I got to reading your comment the ridiculousness of everyone elses comments over Brad not helping Terese was just annoying..... so Im sorry your comment copped the brunt of my annoyance lol..... And in retrospect to your other comment, yes I see everyone elses detest for Laurens behavior but I don't, I dont feel she actively, maliciously went out to try and steal Brad from Terese and destroy her life.. She obviously had feelings for Brad for forever probably due to the fact that her heart was aching for losing a child to him that he never new about... That would've surely heightened her feelings for him... To me I feel she did he best to keep her feelings to her self and once Matt died and made Brad her 'protector' of course old feelings are going to come to the surface (also when they were trying to find Paige). To me it feels like they were pushed together due to circumstances, I don't feel Lauren has been Malicious at all.... In regards to Terese I just don't like her harshness and felt as Brad and Laurens feelings were resurfacing she was pushing (unconsciously) Brad away, especially with the silly things she was doing in regards to Paige....

Yes it was, the end sentence just sort of went with the theme of everyone else..... I think by the time I got to reading your comment the ridiculousness of everyone elses comments over Brad not helping Terese was just annoying..... so Im sorry your comment copped the brunt of my annoyance lol..... And in retrospect to your other comment, yes I see everyone elses detest for Laurens behavior but I don't, I dont feel she actively, maliciously went out to try and steal Brad from Terese and destroy her life.. She obviously had feelings for Brad for forever probably due to the fact that her heart was aching for losing a child to him that he never new about... That would've surely heightened her feelings for him... To me I feel she did he best to keep her feelings to her self and once Matt died and made Brad her 'protector' of course old feelings are going to come to the surface (also when they were trying to find Paige).

Bit in bold: I agree with you there. Though I find her (and Brad's) behaviour selfish, I don't think she deliberately set out to hurt Terese.

Yeah I think they are a little selfish also... but I understand how they came to be....

Lauren was letting Brad know she was there for him and wanted him, she was offering herself up on a platter everytime he was around

Terese had made her feelings of jealousy known to both Lauren and Brad, she was insecure and paranoid which they heightened by always being close

Lauren could have told Brad keep his distance but no she didn't she liked to be around him and Brad if he wasn't thinking with his down under brain should also have kept his distance

Brad and Lauren are in the wrong and Terese deserves a better man to love her and a better friend than Lauren

I'm sure they'll get back together then probably the cracks will start to show really quickly, by which time Terese will have a new man-I hope! 😀

Good!

I'd still like to see her with Paul (although he'll have to be somehow redeemed before that happens.....what he does to Steph is truly horrible). I also liked the suggestion of her having a fling with Mark - just to not only annoy Brad but also Paige!

I just watched the most recent ep (Aus Pace) and Brad and Terese decided to officially call it a day on them.
This is what I hope happens, Terese moves on with another guy after the Christmas break and Brad starts to realise what he's lost and how much he has ****** up.
But I can imagine this is what will happen, Brad and Lauren will officially get together while Terese has to suffer and see them around.

I would love this to happen! The first bit, I mean. But I agree the second bit probably will happen. But hopefully Brad realises life with Lauren and Paige isn't all he thought it would be and Terese will decide New Year New Her and that she's had enough of being miserable and will move on with new friends and a new guy. Then Brad can get jealous 😀 re today's episode I don't think I ever realised before how much Lou blamed Brad for everything that happened with him and Lauren.

Hmm… I have a sneaking suspicion that Brad and Terese will get back together. They both seem to want it, and Terese called it quits because of what Sheila had told her… But in typical Neighbours fashion, they will come to their senses and realises they want each other and get together again.

It's official – Brad Willis and Lauren Turner are leaving Neighbours after four years back on Ramsay Street.

The couple have been making plans for a fresh start on the Gold Coast over the past few weeks, but here's your first look at the emotional moment they say their goodbyes.

In the build-up to their departure, Lauren is plagued by last-minute doubts about leaving her daughter Paige Smith (Olympia Valance) behind in Erinsborough.

Paige has agreed to take charge of Harold's by herself and is sure that she can handle things, but things get off to a bad start when she has to deal with a threatening customer before Lauren has even gone.

The sinister arrival turns nasty with Paige by rebuking her for getting pregnant with a priest's baby, before making it very clear that the local community would much rather she left with Lauren and Brad.

Things get even worse when Harold's is vandalised, leaving Lauren fearful over whether it's really safe to leave Paige alone.

Fortunately, there's an innocent explanation for the vandalism (phew!) and Lauren is reassured to know that Terese and Jack will both be keeping a close eye on Paige on her behalf.

With that settled, there's nothing stopping Brad and Lauren from getting their happy ending as they head off into the sunset together, with everyone on Ramsay Street wishing them well.

Was very surprised to hear this. I thought they'd go for a few weeks and then be back. They kept it very well hidden!

Won't miss Brad ,his character lately has been very annoying over Piper's relationship with Tyler. Went from being a cool laid back guy to a jerky 50's dad
