Neighbours spoilers follow from Monday's Australian episode, which some UK readers may prefer to avoid.

Neighbours has confirmed Ned Willis's huge new storyline twist, which sees him under suspicion over a sinister crime.

The soap recently teased a shock turn of events for Ned (Ben Hall) in a tense trailer focusing on his ongoing ordeal with stalker Scarlett Brady.

Monday's episode on Australian screens (October 5) has now revealed the full details of the storyline, which sees Ned in serious trouble with the police.

In the show's latest scenes, Scarlett managed to lure Ned back to the maze where she stabbed him last year. This came after she disrupted the launch of his art exhibition by publicly accusing him of stalking her.

Scarlett seemed firmly in control as she brought Ned back to the scene of the stabbing in the aftermath – but a few hours later, she was nowhere to be seen.

Mysteriously, Ned woke up back in Erinsborough, having slept in his car. He had a visible head injury and no memory of what happened after he followed Scarlett into the maze.

When Scarlett's fiancé later reported her as a missing person, the police had some tough questions to ask Ned as he was the last person to see her alive.

Thanks to various clues that Scarlett had set up in recent days, including the Fandangle activity and some misleading CCTV footage, the police were starting to see Ned as the true villain of the piece.

Things only got worse for Ned when policeman Levi Canning (Richie Morris) found spots of blood in his car boot.

Could Ned have got rid of Scarlett and lost his memories of what happened, or is this all part of his stalker's evil masterplan to make him suffer? Only time will tell.

Neighbours fans in the UK will see these scenes on Channel 5 in three weeks' time.

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
