Neighbours' Gary Canning has to give into blackmail demands next week when a new character arrives with the potential to cause some major trouble for him.
Gary (Damien Richardson) is busy working at the Retreat when he's confronted by colourful new arrival Nance Sluggett, played by Australian entertainment stalwart Denise Drysdale.
Nance introduces herself as the mother of Jeremy Sluggett, the dodgy guy who handed over money for Gary to look after earlier this year.
It turns out that Nance has arrived to pick up her son's $100,000, but a sheepish Gary is forced to confess that he's already spent the money on his daughter.

Nance's arrival comes shortly after Gary has made the impulsive decision to use Jeremy's money to fund Xanthe's tuition fees.
After hearing Gary's nervous confession, Nance demands a free treatment while she considers her next move.
As Nance is pleased with the service at the Retreat, she agrees to keep Jeremy off Gary's back – but makes it clear that she'll be back for more freebies in return for her kind help.
With a flirtatious look in her eye, could Nance also have more than just treatments on her mind?
Neighbours bosses announced the casting of Denise Drysdale in June, although the character she'd be playing was kept secret at the time. The TV personality and presenter, who currently presents morning show Studio 10, is affectionately known as Ding Dong in Australia.
Speaking earlier this year about her Neighbours role, Denise commented: "I am very, very excited about it! I have been around as long as the show so to be finally doing a role on it is quite an honour and everyone has been so welcoming."
Neighbours' executive producer Jason Herbison added: "Denise is an extraordinary performer and Neighbours is privileged to have her join us to play quite an eccentric character who will have viewers perplexed with her antics."
