'Neighbours' Toadie 'to face off with Troy'

Ryan Moloney has revealed that his Neighbours alter ego Toadie will face a tough time in the coming months.

Viewers have recently learned that Toadie's girlfriend Sonya is the biological mother of his adopted son Callum - prompting the Ramsay Street regular to question their relationship.

Added to that, Sonya's ex-boyfriend Troy - played by former Home and Away actor Dieter Brummer - is soon due to appear in Erinsborough.

Speaking to Holy Soap, Moloney teased the face-off between Sonya's former and present loves.

"[Toadie and Troy are] like a couple of bulls eyeing off each other, waiting to see who charges first," he explained.

"[Toadie] will go through a lot of turmoil before things turn around for him."

When asked what he is looking forward to about working with Brummer, Moloney joked: "[I'd love] to see if he can actually channel [Home and Away's] Ray Meagher and slip into the script, 'You flaming mongrel!' That would be a television moment!"
