'Neighbours' stars go to jail for charity

Various Neighbours cast members are poised to spend a night in prison.

Actors including Jordy Lucas, who plays Summer Hoyland, Valentina Novakovic (Natasha Williams), Alan Fletcher (Karl Kennedy) and Stefan Dennis (Paul Robinson) have agreed to be locked up at Old Melbourne Gaol with 180 others to raise money for charity White Lion's 'Break Out Week'.

According to the Herald Sun, stars have to raise $1,000 (£600) in order to take part in the event, the proceeds of which will go towards rehabilitating young offenders.

While promoting the charity, Lucas revealed that she would love her soap character to "go off the rails a bit more". She said: "She's such a goody two shoes. I'd love her to start hanging out with the wrong crowd."

She recently revealed that Summer will be doing some "house-hopping" as some "new residents" arrive on Ramsay Street. This will coincide with the departure of Janet Andrewartha, who play Lucas's on-screen grandmother Lyn Scully.
