With
his dashing looks and hunky physique, Drew Kirk caught the eye of pretty
Stephanie Scully the moment she arrived in Ramsay Street. That was 12 months
ago, and back then, Drew was going strong with Libby Kennedy. But how times have
changed! A regular Neighbours viewers will know, Libby recently broke off her
engagement to Drew after a horrific motorcycle accident left her unable to have
children- paving the way for Stephanie to finally make her move! In episodes
screening this month, Steph decides to confess her true feelings for Drew. And
according to Carla Bonner, who plays the tomboy, things donˇ¦t go entirely to
plan.
ˇ§Steph
and Drew go away to the bush for a weekend,ˇ¨ Carla reveals. ˇ§Steph is torn
between excitement and guilt. She knows itˇ¦s her chance to tell Drew how she
feels, but at the same time, she feels bad because Libby is her friend and
sheˇ¦s doing all this behind her back. When they get there, the moment feels
right and Steph decides to tell him everything. But just as she is about to
spill it out, Drew gets in first and says how much he is still in love with
Libby!ˇ¨ Fortunately, all is not lost for Steph. Working in her favour is the
fact that Libby is resolute to split up with Drew.
ˇ§From
Stephˇ¦s point of view, thereˇ¦s not much chance of Drew and Libby getting
back together, so all she thinks she has to do is be patient and convince Drew
that she is the one for him.ˇ¨ Carla says she doesnˇ¦t know if Neighbours
scriptwriters will ultimately pair Steph and Drew together, but she says the
storyline will continue for several months. ˇ§Itˇ¦s not often that we have
things stretch out for such a long period, so this will be interesting for
viewers to follow. I was a bit worried viewers would hate Steph for going after
Drew but I think it shows Steph is human, You canˇ¦t help who you fall in love
with, so really, sheˇ¦s just following her heart."
