Neighbours star Andrew Morley has hinted at plans to introduce Jack Callahan's brother – and he knows exactly who he wants to play him.
Former Home and Away star Andrew joined the show early last year as the priest who turned Paige Smith's life upside down, but there could now be plans to bring in his family.
And given that the Aussie stars love a bit of soap swap, it may come as no surprise that Andrew has a Summer Bay friend in mind for the role.
"The Neighbours producers deliberately kept it open about Jack's family and have never really given it any specifics," Andrew said to Inside Soap. "But I think towards the end of the year, we'll be exploring those options.
"I'm actually trying to get Charles Cottier – who played Dexter – a job on Neighbours as Jack's brother!
"Charles has been in LA and done brilliantly there, but he's back home in Brisbane now and doesn't have a steady job. So I'll definitely be putting Charles's name forward for anything that crops up."
Do you think they could pass as on-screen siblings?

Speaking about other Home and Away stars he keeps in touch with, Andrew added: "Charles is my closest friend from there. But I also have a lot of respect for Jake Speer [Oscar MacGuire] and I'll catch up with my on-screen brother Johnny Ruffo [Chris Harrington] every so often, as well.
"I have most of the cast on social media so I'm fairly up to date on their lives. "
Charles joined Home and Away as Dexter in 2010, playing him until 13 when the character left the Bay with love interest April Scott.
