Benjie's Back!

Neighbours' fans are going to be jumping for joy.  Hearthrob Benjie McNair is returning to Neighbours for four months as Mal Kennedy to save his parent's relationship from going belly-up. 

Benjie McNair joined Neighbours in 1994 as Mal Kennedy, the eldest child of Karl and Susan Kennedy, and quickly became one of Ramsay Street's hearthrobs before he left in 1997. 

Since then he has made a couple of guest appearances on the show, but this time Mal's returning home to some family unrest, and his aim is to salvage his parents marriage which is strained when a third party comes on the scene. 

"It’s great to be back. While there have been a few changes and lots of new faces, Mum (Jackie Woodburne) and Dad (Alan Kennedy) are still the same so it really is like coming home," said McNair.
