Neighbours is an Australian television soap opera. It was first broadcast on 18 March 1985 and currently airs on digital channel Eleven. The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the soap in 2012, by order of first appearance. Until May, characters were introduced by the soap's executive producer, Susan Bower. Thereafter, they were introduced by her successor, Richard Jasek. The 28th season of Neighbours began airing on 9 January 2012. Four piece indie band William and the Tells made their debut as Red Cotton in the same month, while Toby Wallace made his debut as Corey O'Donahue. Dominic Emmerson and Rani Kapoor began appearing from February. Vanessa Villante arrived in March, while Sheila Canning, Bernard Cabello and Zoe Alexander made their debuts from May. Ed Lee arrived in June. Alex Delpy and Dale Madden appeared in August. Harley Canning and Bradley Fox arrived in September, while Georgia Brooks, Francesca Villante and Father Guidotti made their debuts in October. Monica Wetherby appeared in November. Scotty Boland and Patrick Villante began appearing from December.

Red Cotton, played by real life band William and the Tells, made their first on screen appearance on 16 January 2012. The band's casting was announced on 21 September 2011. William and the Tells are a four piece indie group from Melbourne fronted by siblings William and Peter Ewing, with their friends Ben Callaghan and Sam Walsh. The group were renamed Red Cotton for their guest stint with the show. William Ewing told Clare Quirk of The Warrnambool Standard that a friend revealed Neighbours were looking for a band and that they had auditioned seventy already, but none of them could act. Peter Ewing told Neighbours that William could act and they were given the role of Red Cotton six weeks later. The band members began filming their first scenes the week following the casting announcement. Of joining the show, William Ewing said "It's a huge opportunity for a bunch of local boys. Being able to blend acting and music will be great fun, and I'm looking forward to meeting long-time hero Lou Carpenter." William and the Tells performed their own material when they appeared as Red Cotton. Their storyline saw Andrew Robinson (Jordan Smith) become their manager.
