'Neighbours' Summer reveals return details

Neighbours' new Summer Hoyland has revealed that mystery will surround the character when she returns to Ramsay Street.

Actress Jordy Lucas was cast in the role of Steph Scully's (Carla Bonner) stepdaughter late last year, taking over from Marisa Siketa, who played the part between 2002 and 2007.

Summer will be back on Australian screens next week. In her early scenes, she will be discovered hiding out at the local garage before later being spotted racing out of the kitchen at Charlie's Bar.

Lucas told TV Week: "She's back in Erinsborough under rather ambiguous circumstances after studying at music school. At first, no-one knows who she is.

"She's wearing boyish clothes and ends up with half the street running after her! Her arrival's baffling."

Lucas started filming with Neighbours in October.
