The Blakeney Twins Are Returning To 'Neighbours' (No Word On A New Single Yet)

Gayle and Gillian Blakeney, aka '90s music duo The Twins, are set to reprise their roles on the iconic Australian soap Neighbours this year.

As reported by TV Tonight, the show is bringing back the twin sisters 27 years after their run on the series ended.

The pair played Christina and Caroline Alessi from 1990 to 1992, with Christina as the wife of Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) and Caroline his lover.

They recorded with Stock Aitken Waterman, of Kylie Minogue fame, releasing All Mixed Up which peaked at #74 in Australia in July 1991 and also hosted kid's program Wombat. The twins also featured in The Monitors' clip for Singin' In The '80s. 

“We were tickled pink to be asked back and we knew if they wanted to reprise the characters after nearly 30 years, it had to be for a great story line which it is. We’re really looking forward to filming it,” Gayle Blakeney shared with TV Tonight.

Gillian Blakeney added, “Strangely enough it feels just so comfortable and familiar despite the obvious changes, the cast and crew have been so welcoming.”

The three-episode stint is expected to air in September.
