Despite this, Victor persists by demanding to know why Jane and Mike aren't together if they're in love.

Hollywood star Guy Pearce appeared in person on Neighbours late last year for Mike and Jane's engagement scenes. Mike has since been on screen for brief video calls to his family.
Asked recently whether Guy could pop up again, Neighbours' executive producer Jason Herbison told Digital Spy: "It's a wonderful dilemma to have. We're very grateful to Guy for continuing his association with the show. Anything is possible but of course it depends on his schedule.
"That said, the distance will soon prove difficult for Mike and Jane and they will need to reassess their future."
Neighbours airs these scenes on Tuesday, June 18.
Neighbours releases new episodes from Mondays to Thursdays for free on Amazon Freevee in the UK and US. In Australia, the show airs from Mondays to Thursdays at 4pm on Channel 10, with a 6.30pm repeat screening on 10 Peach.
