Stefan Dennis has revealed that he was the only Neighbours cast member who knew the truth behind the 'Who pushed P.R?' mystery all along.

Later this week, British fans will see the actor's villainous character Paul Robinson left fighting for his life when a mystery assailant pushes him from the mezzanine level of Lassiters. The shocking incident - which takes place in the show's 6,000th episode - sparks a whodunit investigation with many twists and turns.

Speaking to Digital Spy about whether he knew who the culprit was during filming, Dennis admitted: "Yes, I did, however I was the only cast member who did know for quite a while.

"I was sworn to secrecy - and for the first time ever, I had to actually fib to other cast members that I didn't know!"

Teasing the climax to the storyline, he added: "The person who it is is very good - it's not at all what you expect, so I think viewers will be taken by surprise - it's great storytelling."

Neighbours' 6,000th edition will be screened in the UK on Friday. Meanwhile, episodes airing over the course of this week show the build-up to the attack on Paul and present a motive for each of the suspects.
