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 2013, by order of first appearance. All characters are introduced by the shows executive producer Richard Jasek. The 29th season of Neighbours began airing from 7 January 2013.Nell Rebecchi made her debut in the same month. The Turner family, consisting of Amber, Bailey, Matt and Mason arrived in February, as did Robbo Slade. Rhiannon Bates began appearing from April. Jayden Warley and the Willises – Terese, Imogen and Joshua Willis – made their first appearances in May. The following month saw Walter Mitchell and Hudson Walsh arrive. Marty Kranic and Josie Lamb made their debuts in July and August respectively. Alek Pocoli began appearing in September, while October saw the introductions of Gemma Reeves and Eric Edwards.
Nell Rebecchi, played by Scarlett Anderson, made her first screen appearance during the episode broadcast on 7 January 2013. She is the daughter of Sonya (Eve Morey) and Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney). Anderson was just four weeks old when she made her debut as Nell. Morey revealed that she instantly fell in love with her and joked that she had trouble letting her go after filming. She said "I just want her there all the time! I come home all excited about how I've been able to work with the baby. She's called Scarlett in real life and she's such a beautiful baby. Having her around just lifts everyone's mood, so we're very lucky."
Morey believed that she "wore down the writers" to give Sonya and Toadie a baby. She commented "After everything they have been through, it just seems like the most natural thing for these characters." Morey's character was pregnant at the same time as Vanessa Villante (Alin Sumarwata), which allowed the two women to share their experiences. Both actresses were required to wear prosthetic bumps, which would be increased in size every few weeks. Morey stated that she became attached to hers and would constantly rub it. On-screen, Sonya opts to give birth at home, but experiences serious complications and has to undergo a caesarean section at the hospital. Toadie and Callum Jones (Morgan Baker) are left "to frantically wait for news" and when Karl Kennedy (Alan Fletcher) cannot confirm the health of the baby, Toadie assumes that his daughter has died. A Soap World reporter said "Toadie is in agony until Karl finally reports that little Nell is healthy and happy. The new father joins a recovering Sonya and Callum to celebrate the newest addition to the family".
