Shane Ramsay's Neighbours return storyline revealed
He's back after three decades!
Australian soap Neighbours has revealed the first details of Shane Ramsay's return to Ramsay Street, as actor Peter O'Brien reprises his role for the first time in 35 years.
Many former cast members have been heading back to the show that began their careers, with Ian Smith already back on-screen as Harold Bishop, and Natalie Bassingthwaite not far behind him as troublemaker Izzy Hoyland.
And it's not long before you'll see Shane back in action. Like the Robinsons, the Ramsays were one of the soap's original families; so Shane's old pal Paul (Stefan Dennis) is thrilled by his surprise comeback.
Shane featured in Neighbours' first ever episode. He was seen training to become an Olympic swimmer, before a back injury halted those dreams for good. Shane was also charged with manslaughter, but the charge was later dropped. He left Erinsborough in 1987 to travel Australia, and hasn't been seen since.

The show offered a first look at star O'Brien back on set in June, in a clip where he encouraged fans to vote for Neighbours at the National Television Awards.
