Ada Nicodemou, who plays Patterson-Baker, previously hinted at the new actor's identity, saying: "We've got a new bloke, Matt, who's started in the role. He is really lovely and eager. I think he's going to be really, really popular as well.
"VJ does leave the screens for a while and then he comes back definitely grown up! He's quite a big boy now, as physically they wanted him to grow up a bit and look a little bit older."
Little recently starred in Neighbours as the mysterious Ethan Smith.
He sure has grown up!! From a teenager to a 21-year old
