Neighbours' Miranda reunites with her first love

Neighbours' Miranda reunites with her first love
 
 

Miranda Parker bumps into her first love, Dean Naughton, when he arrives at Lassiter's next week - and the actor who plays him is a familiar face to soap fans.

Peter Bensley, who plays Dean, played a character called Tony Chapman in Neighbours in 1986, but veteran Home And Away viewers will recognise Peter from his two-year stint as teacher Andrew Foley.

The character was forced to leave the show after inappropriate behaviour with student Carly Morris.

Back then, Peter was regarded as a major sex symbol, and even featured as a nude centrefold in Cleo magazine, wearing only strategically placed scuba diving gear!
Unfortunately, his latest Neighbours character is unlikely to win over any new fans.

Dean is a rather creepy individual who somehow manages to charm Miranda, putting a further nail into the coffin of the Parkers' marriage.
