Steph Scully returns to Neighbours on Monday 5th October according to TV Soap magazine

Steph is back permanently and she comes back to work in the garage. But not everybody is thrilled to see Steph again. Lucas returns to Ramsay Street and confronts Steph. Will they resolve their differences? 2 years ago, Steph was mentally ill and she tried to split up Lucas and Vanessa and she went too far by kidnapping Patrick (Lucas and Vanessa's son).

Bring on the fireworks...

Sounds great, I'm glad we see Lucas again too

Please please please can Lucas and Vanessa be coming back permanently!

Hopefully Steph's return is better than her last

I read Lucas buys back the Garage. Was hoping it was a hint that maybe Lucas and Vanessa will be back at some point. They were great and should never have left

I also agree - Lucas and Vanessa should never have left.

Both were axed which was crazy.

This is Oz pace yes? So the 19th Oct here in the UK. I think Steph might be good friends with Amy.

I must be the only one not looking forward to Steph coming back. I really don't like her I think she's an awful character. Really excited about Lucas and Vanessa though.

I hope they redeem Steph. Her last stint was terrible. Is lucas' return permanent too and will vanessa join him?

Have to agree about Steph

I think Lucas is back for 2 eps and Vanessa 1. Him buying the garage again is strange but might be hard to bring them back full time as they will have 3 kids now all under 5?

Yes I can imagine Steph and Amy getting on as they're both very 'tomboyish' they're also stepsisters as well from Paul's marriage to Lyn which is strange considering they've never met.

There will be tension though between Steph & Sonya considering Stephs history with Toadie.

Looking forward to Steph's first scenes with Josh

According to the episode thumbnails on the Perfectblend website, the garage's new owner will be revealed next Tuesday in Australia saying that an old neighbour will return as the garage's new owner. Could it be Steph or Lucas?

The preview for the following episode says "Sonya expresses her fears to Lucas." Could Steph be the new owner?

Can't wait for Steph's return she was my favourite until she killed Ringo and gave away her baby and went crazy. I hope the can redeem her somehow.

Yay Lucas! Why they axed him I'll never know.

Now they have turned her into a lesbian, dont know how that will pan out...

It may be that Steph is bisexual, this is not a bad thing however.

Really? All these years of being straight and she's now gay? Surely there'd have been some sort of clue or is it one of the love the person not the sex of the person thing?

Whatsisface who plays Lucas now directs so maybe he left to do that?

This is more realistic than it sounds. I understand that the number of lesbians and bi's among biker chicks is above average for women as a whole.
