Neighbours has revealed Rebecca Napier's return storyline, as Jane Hall reprises the role after five years away from Ramsay Street.

Show bosses have confirmed that Rebecca will be heading back to Erinsborough as part of a mysterious new plot for Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis), who's being haunted by his ex-wives.

Paul goes into meltdown when Rebecca turns up out of the blue next week. Although she has a seemingly-plausible reason for being there, Paul fears that her appearance is no coincidence after visits from Gail Lewis and Lyn Scully.

The bad boy speculates that his exes have colluded to play a sick joke on him, but when he can't find any evidence to back up this theory, he wonders whether the universe is trying to tell him something.

When Rebecca gets some time alone with Paul's fiancée Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou), she tries to warn her that their relationship will end in tears.

Reflecting on the fateful day she pushed Paul from the mezzanine balcony, Rebecca tells Terese that her own relationship with the schemer turned her into a violent person.

Terese is unimpressed by Rebecca's warnings, appalled that she tried to take Paul's life and is seemingly avoiding any ownership of her actions.

As the pressure from Paul's exes becomes too much for him to cope with, he spontaneously decides that the wedding is off. Terese has other ideas, suggesting that they should elope to get away from any potential meddlers.

Later in the week, Paul and Terese enjoy getting away from it all at a topical paradise in Queensland – safe in the knowledge that they're far away from any exes.

Unfortunately, there's a sting in the tail when Paul unexpectedly bumps into another former Mrs Robinson at the resort – Christina Alessi.

This proves to be the final straw for Paul, who once again calls off the wedding and ignores Terese's protests for him to see sense. What the couple don't realise is that Paul's ex-wives have been plotting together the whole time…

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, September 2, Tuesday, September 3 and Friday, September 6 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
