Neighbours' Doug Willis makes a return to Ramsay Street
Neighbours is bringing back one of its classic characters, Doug Willis, played by Terence Donovan, the real life father of Jason Donovan.
Terence returns to Ramsay Street in April on a visit with his son Brad Willis and he said: “It is very exciting to be coming back as the same character after all these years and I always loved the DougWillis character.
"And I love the fact that he is a builder and he is encouraging his young grandson (played by Harley Bonner) to have a trade and be proud of what you do. I think that’s very important."
Terence’s return to Neighbours premieres on April 23 for UK viewers.
