Neighbours bosses are bringing in a new member of the Canning family, Digital Spy can exclusively reveal.

Richie Morris has landed the role of Levi Canning, who's the grandson of Sheila (Colette Mann) and cousin of Kyle (Chris Milligan).

Levi is a police officer, who'll be joining Ramsay Street on Australian screens later this month. He'll start appearing on UK screens from Monday, July 6.

So who is his Canning parent? Naomi doesn't have any kids, does she? Do Gary and Nomes have another sibling? I don't recall any others being mentioned.

[Aussieguy]

AFAIK Naomi doesn't have kids so must be another sibling. Unless Naomi had a child but had it adopted and kept it a secret

[Kyzaah]

The fact he has the Canning last name kinda rules out that Naomi gave up a baby (he wouldn’t have her last name unless he changed it when he found out he was adopted?). Maybe long lost sibling or child of Gary?

[Stothard]

I think Shiela has another child as previously Dane and Harley canning have visited these were her grandchildren

[lizann]

I think Shiela has another child as previously Dane and Harley canning have visited these were her grandchildren

no talk of them during gary's death more cannings

[kaz21]

Apparently he’s frank jr’s son.

[Aussieguy]

I think Shiela has another child as previously Dane and Harley canning have visited these were her grandchildren

I'd forgotten about them but yes she does have other grandchildren so could be another sibling

[Aussieguy]

Did some research and apparently there's a third sibling Jackie :hmm:

[Bossy7]

Who’s with me in tipping a Yashvi/Levi hookup??? Ned is so boring with Yashvi. Would love to see him with an older woman.

[Pantherboy]

Did some research and apparently there's a third sibling Jackie :hmm:

Apparently the 3rd sibling is Frank. Jackie is married to Frank. Someone asked Colette Mann (Sheila) on Twitter "Who is Jackie? I don’t recall hearing her name...", & Colette replied "Married to Frank Junior ... second son after Gary". So Levi must be their son (& therefore Sheila's grandson).

In this Backstage interview Richie Morris (who plays Levi Canning) confirms that Levi's dad is Frank Jr:

However, apparently Frank Junior & Jackie had Dane & Harley, but Levi is their half-brother (confirmed by Colette Mann on Twitter). So Jackie is not Levi's mother...!

[Bordercollie]

Who’s with me in tipping a Yashvi/Levi hookup??? Ned is so boring with Yashvi. Would love to see him with an older woman.

I don’t want it to happen but I certainly think there will be some love triangle drama or something like that as both Levi and Yashvi are going to most likely be working as cops

roxy kyle triangle?

[kaz21]

Apparently they kiss, but leave it at that.

This is part of an article in the latest TV Week:

Spoiler Alert


"Roxy and Kyle were about to commit to each other, but she caught Kyle on what looked like a date... Roxy is excited to meet Levi, a new person she hasn't seen around before.
They share a kiss but decide not to take things further. But when Kyle finds out, he's livid. He tells Roxy they can never be together because the situation is too messy now, but that doesn't mean he isn't gutted. Although Levi didn't know about the connection to Kyle, he feels awful for upsetting his cousin.
Later, Kyle surprises everyone by seeming to put events aside and invites Levi, Roxy and Bea to visit the island. It's the island where Finn fatally shot Kyle's father Gary with an arrow. It's now being cleared for a new project. While they're there, Kyle discovers the very arrow that killed his dad and is overcome.
Roxy steps in to comfort Kyle. After kissing Levi, she realised Kyle is the one she really wants, but for now she's happy to be a supportive friend to him. While they're being honest with each other, Kyle and Roxy admit they want to be with each other."

Neighbours casts former Home and Away star as new love rival for Levi Canning
Has Levi missed his chance with Bea?

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a34483519/neighbours-levi-love-rival-jackson-gallagher/

Neighbours spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.

Neighbours has cast former Home and Away star Jackson Gallagher as a new love rival for Levi Canning (Richie Morris).

Gallagher, who played Josh Barrett on Home and Away between 2013 and 2016, will star as a handsome newcomer named Nathan who's set to catch Bea Nilsson's (Bonnie Anderson) eye.

It's currently unclear how long the actor will feature on the soap.

According to Australia's TV Soap, Levi will come to realise that he's missed his opportunity with potential love interest Bea, having spent all of his time focusing on his police work and trying to keep his epilepsy under control.

The two have become good friends and continue to show romantic potential, but just as they appear to be taking things to the next level, Levi puts some distance between them.

After Levi seemingly rejects her once more, Bea loses patience and decides to let him make the first move.

Little does she know, however, that's exactly what Levi plans to do, having finally realised that there may be something between them.

Unfortunately, by the time he realises this, he may already be too late. Just as he sets a plan in place to make a move on Bea, he spots her at Lassisters Lake, laughing and enjoying the company of Nathan (Gallagher).

Levi has no idea who he is. Nathan, on the other hand, appears to be fully aware of Bea's previous love interest.

Has Levi missed his opportunity with Bea, or will this be kick up the backside he needs to properly pursue her?

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours to revisit Levi Canning's attack storyline
Two guys from his past are up to no good.

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a36647075/neighbours-spoiler-levi-canning-attack-revisited/

Neighbours spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.

Neighbours is revisiting Levi Canning's attack storyline on Australian screens next week, after the police officer sees two guys from his past.

Levi (Richie Morris) was attacked when he was younger, although the culprits were there for his cousin Kyle (Chris Milligan) at the time. The incident caused him to develop epilepsy.

Last year, Levi confronted one of his attackers, Nathan 'Packo' Packard. There was a positive outcome, as they made amends and Packo had clearly turned his life around. But the other two attackers look to be nothing but bad news.

In upcoming scenes via TV Week magazine, Levi is shocked when he sees Mitch (Kevin Hofbauer) and Nelson (Rhys Mitchell) again, bringing back painful memories of his attack.

Believing that the pair are up to no good, the cop keeps an eye on them.

But the following day, he finds a toy train ? the same one he had when he was a kid ? at his home.

Interpreting this as a warning from Mitch and Nelson to stay away, Levi is unsure what to do next. A conversation with Kyle leads him to go to the police.

"Realising just how much this whole situation affects him makes him really consider it," star Richie Morris says.

These scenes air in the UK in five weeks' time.

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and weekdays at 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours' Levi Canning left intrigued by mystery woman in new story
What is Freya hiding?

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a38708802/neighbours-spoilers-levi-freya-new-story/

Neighbours' Levi Canning encounters a mysterious woman in the aftermath of the wedding day storm disaster.

Levi's (Richie Morris) new storyline involves the introduction of new character Freya Wozniak, who is played by Phoebe Roberts, and she leaves an impression on the police constable following the one-week time jump.

In upcoming scenes, one character loses their life when tragedy strikes at the Flamingo Bar during the violent storm.

Several days later, Levi notices Freya hanging around the site of the Flamingo Bar accident. When Freya sees Levi, she runs off.

Levi eventually catches up with her, but the encounter leaves him more confused about her than before.

Freya is then seen appearing quite keen on gathering information about him.

Sheila Canning (Colette Mann), seeing that Freya has taken an interest in Levi, later tries to reel her in for her grandson to his annoyance.

Sheila reveals to Levi that she knows the mystery woman's name. But it appears Freya is hiding a secret from everyone.

The addition of Freya was announced late last year, although not many details were revealed about her with the show describing the newcomer as "the ultimate mystery girl" who is "not afraid to bend the rules".

A promo for 2022 that aired last month showed a glimpse of a scene where a panicked Freya clutches a knife.

But what is Freya hiding, and could a romance between her and Levi happen?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Thursday, January 20 and Friday, January 21 at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Tuesday, January 25 and Wednesday, January 26 at 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours confirms new romance storyline for Levi Canning
But what is Freya Wozniak hiding?

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a38790567/neighbours-spoilers-levi-freya-romance/

Neighbours spoilers follow.

Neighbours has confirmed a new romance storyline for Levi Canning, as he begins dating Freya Wozniak.

Freya (Phoebe Roberts) was hinted at a potential love interest for Levi (Richie Morris) in the promo for 2022 that aired last month. After his break-up with Amy Greenwood, Levi is enjoying his time with Freya ? but he remains oblivious to the secret she is hiding.

In upcoming scenes on Channel 5 and 10 Peach, Sheila Canning (Colette Mann) can't resist setting Levi up on a date with Freya.

Sheila has taken a real liking to Freya, which is a change when compared to how she disapproved of Amy and the polyamorous relationship.

Levi and Freya get along extremely well and share chemistry. However, Freya continues to hide her ulterior motives and keeps digging for information.

The couple have another date later in the week. During this, Levi opens up to Freya about his childhood and the attack which resulted in him developing epilepsy. Levi arrested two of his attackers, Mitch and Nelson, for different crimes last year.

Freya is sympathetic towards him, but while Levi is beginning to fall for her, Freya's true motives are still unknown.

Will Levi end up getting his heart broken?

Also next week, Amy is fighting for her life as she's rushed to hospital following a confrontation with her daughter Zara Selwyn (Freya Van Dyke).

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, January 24 and Friday, January 28 at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK). The scenes air on Thursday, January 27 and Thursday, February 3 at 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours' Levi Canning to be held at gunpoint in dramatic scenes
Freya's search lands Levi in danger.

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a39073529/neighbours-levi-freya-gunpoint-drama/

Neighbours spoilers follow.

Neighbours' Levi Canning is held at gunpoint in next week's episodes.

After Freya Wozniak (Phoebe Roberts) comes clean to him that she's really in Erinsborough to find her missing boyfriend Gareth, Levi (Richie Morris) comes across a potential lead into his whereabouts but runs into trouble.

In upcoming scenes, the police constable investigates an address but doesn't find Gareth. Instead, he is held at gunpoint by an agitated man.

Levi attempts to calm him down, but the stranger turns out to be a criminal who appears determined not to go back to jail.

Nobody knows where Levi is, so how will he get out of this situation?

Later, Levi finds himself conflicted regarding Freya. While she's caused him nothing but trouble since her arrival, he has a soft spot for her and is concerned that her search for Gareth may land her in danger.

Roxy Willis (Zima Anderson) and Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan), however, ask him to stay away from Freya and simply let her go.

Despite his family's pleas, Levi decides to help Freya. With the search for Gareth becoming increasingly dangerous, Levi explains that he wants to ensure Freya's safety.

Levi and Freya continue pursuing the lead, visiting the South Melbourne Market. They try to put pressure on some suspicious dealers, but get nowhere.

They give up for the day, but there is a possibility their search hasn't gone unnoticed...

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, February 21, Tuesday, February 22, Wednesday, February 23 and Friday, February 25 at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK). The scenes air on Thursday, March 3, Monday, March 7, Tuesday, March 8 and Thursday, March 10 at 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours reveals rafting disaster for Levi Canning in dramatic week
The River Bend trip takes another horrifying turn.

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/neighbours/a39258474/neighbours-levi-canning-rafting-disaster-dramatic-week/

Neighbours spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.

Neighbours will air a shock rafting disaster for Levi Canning in the coming weeks, as dangerous Gareth Bateman causes chaos.

As several Erinsborough residents head off for a getaway at River Bend, they are unaware that events are set to take a far from relaxing turn as Freya Wozniak's missing boyfriend Gareth (Jack Pearson) finally appears after apparently going into hiding from corrupt cops.

After Gareth claims to Levi (Richie Morris) that he is actually in hiding from Freya (Phoebe Roberts) because she has been stalking him, Levi is left with a lot to think about ? but things get far worse for him when he is separated from Freya during their trip.

Left alone, Levi is confronted by a gun-toting Gareth and shot. After falling unconscious, Levi is found by Freya, but she is quickly taken hostage by Gareth before she can help injured Levi.

Thankfully, Levi eventually regains consciousness and manages to bandage up his relatively mild gunshot wound.

Concerned for Freya's safety, and with no idea where she is, he heads off to search for her, desperate to help keep her safe from dangerous Gareth.

Levi decides that the quickest way to find Freya will be to raft across the river, but unfortunately he soon finds himself in trouble in the water ? and the boat capsizes.

As injured Levi tumbles into the river, will he be okay?

And with Freya and Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson) both set to be involved in a van altercation with Gareth, will they also survive the encounter?

Actress Phoebe, who plays Freya, recently teased to Digital Spy that viewers who were unimpressed by the lies that Freya has told to Levi might start to have more sympathy for her as the storyline unfolds and more is revealed about her past.

"They might go against her for a little while," she said, "but then something huge happens where people might understand her predicament and they might come back on board."

Neighbours airs these scenes on Friday, March 11 at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Tuesday, March 29 at 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).

Neighbours spoilers: Levi Canning?s surprise romantic gesture for Freya Wozniak as they finally admit their feelings

https://metro.co.uk/2022/05/22/neighbours-spoilers-levis-surprise-gesture-for-frey-as-they-finally-get-together-16689281/?ito=newsnow-feed

Levi Canning (Richie Morris) takes a chance on love in Neighbours next week, as he declares his feelings for Freya Wozniak (Phoebe Roberts) in a surprising yet incredibly romantic fashion.

The duo, despite the evident chemistry between them, have struggled to communicate how they feel for one another, which is largely in part due to the way they came into each other?s lives.

Freya, as viewers know, first crossed paths with Levi when she rocked up in Ramsay Street earlier this year on a secret mission.

The newcomer was intent on locating missing boyfriend Gareth Bateman, and given that Levi is a policeman, he was the perfect person to assist her.

Freya, however, started to care for Levi and thus she later came clean, admitting that she was using him to find her missing beau.

Levi felt betrayed and contemplated cutting all ties with her.

Despite threatening to do so, however, he was unable to follow through, and thus resolved to help her find Gareth.

The duo?s investigation led to them sharing more time together, and Freya soon developed genuine feelings for Levi, which took her by surprise.

Their lives were endangered, however, when Gareth gatecrashed their trip to River Bend, revealing his true colours, as he shot Levi and almost killed Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson).

Gareth lost his life amid the chaos, with Freya and David Tanaka (Takaya Honda) refraining from helping him, something which would later come back to haunt them both.

Levi, meanwhile, felt utterly betrayed that Freya had withheld the circumstances surrounding Gareth?s death from him, and thus he decided that he never wanted to see her again.

Freya was crushed. Determined to make amends, she threw herself into volunteering at the Foundation, which ultimately impressed Levi, and he soon patched things up with her.

Freya, meanwhile, cleverly susses out Corey Smythe-Jones (Laurence Boxhall) and Christabel (Syd Zygier) this week, tracking the former to a remote cottage where he?s drugging Harlow Robinson (Jemma Donovan).

Her life is endangered, as Corey attacks her and ties her up. But she soon gets the upper hand, and reunites with Levi and David.

The ordeal brings her closer to Levi once more, and next week, it?s the moment we?ve all been waiting for.

With Freya and Levi struggling to admit their feelings for one another, Chloe Brennan (April Rose Pengilly) takes a huge risk, breaking girl code to have a word with Levi, telling him that he needs to make things official with Freya.

Levi, however, is taken aback by Chloe?s words, as he came to believe that Freya wasn?t interested in him!

Honestly, these two.

Chloe reassures Levi otherwise, and ultimately gives him the confidence he needs, as he gears up to make a major romantic gesture.

Pictures reveal the moment in question, as the policeman pulls up in his work car in Ramsay Street, before exiting the vehicle and making quite the declaration.

Residents of the neighbourhood watch on, as he publicly declares his love for Freya, who is delighted with what he has to say.

In romantic scenes, the duo finally kiss, and fellow street favourites cheer.

Later that week, Freya and Levi struggle to resist the chemistry between them as they enjoy a picnic. With things getting steamy, they end up succumbing to temptation ? in the bushes!

Disaster strikes, however, as their clothes are stolen!

How will they get out of this one? That remains to be seen, but the naughty adventure ultimately brings them closer together.
