Julie Quill, played by Gail Easdale, made her first screen appearance on 12 January 2016.[2] The character and Easdale's casting was announced on 4 January.[2] The actress revealed that she had previously auditioned for another role on the show in 2015, but was unsuccessful. She was then asked to play Julie and she accepted.[2] The role marks Easdale's return to acting after a break to raise her children. She is also the real-life wife of Stefan Dennis, who portrays Paul Robinson.[2]

Julie will be introduced as the new owner of Lassiter's Hotel and Paul's enemy. Easdale described Julie as being "a hard nut, but she also has a softer side because she has worked hard and she appreciates others that put in the effort."[2] Easdale said Julie was forced to make an impact in a male dominated environment, which she admired. She added that Paul was "a great character to play against", which made her guest stint more interesting as Dennis is different at home.[2]

Julie comes to Erinsborough to inspect Lassiter's hotel, the Quill Group's newest acquisition. Julie holds a grudge against the hotel's previous owner Paul Robinson, following a failed romance between them. When she learns Paul's nephew Daniel (Tim Phillipps) has applied for a job at the hotel, she turns him down after an interview. Julie discusses her struggles as a woman in the hotel industry with Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou), and she decides to hire Daniel after realising that he and Paul have fallen out. She tells Terese that if there are problems, she will be held responsible. Julie returns a few weeks later for a meeting with Terese, and she clashes with Paul again. She later reveals to Terese her plans for a second hotel tower to be built on existing businesses within the Lassiter's complex. Julie becomes determined to ruin Paul's bid to host the Erinsborough Citizen of the Year event. She manages to persuade the council to hold the launch party at The Waterhole, but Paul arranges a job offer for the Lassiter's chef, causing him to quit before the launch. Harold's Store does the catering and leaves Julie, the guests and Mayor Sonya Rebecchi (Eve Morey) with food poisoning. Robinson's Motel is awarded the ceremony.

Julie meets with her stepson Tom Quill (Kane Felsinger) to discuss the progress of the second tower. Tom informs Julie that he has persuaded those opposed to the development to withdraw their objections. When Robinson's loses its liquor license, Lassiter's regains the Citizen of the Year event and Julie gloats to Paul. She also puts pressure on Tom to sort the environmental report for the tower by replacing any negative report with a more positive version. When Tom's deception is later exposed, Julie disowns him. Shortly after, the boiler room at Lassiter's explodes, destroying the hotel.

Xanthe Canning, played by Lilly Van der Meer, made her first screen appearance on 22 January 2016.[4] The character and casting was announced on 30 November 2015.[4] Colette Mann, who plays Sheila Canning, previously teased a new member of the Canning family in an interview with Daniel Kilkelly of Digital Spy in October. She commented that the new arrival would start "a big new storyline."[5] Of Van der Meer's casting, Mann said "Lilly's world has certainly been opened up since joining the show and we're loving having her here. She was already a Canning after just a couple of weeks, we had converted her."[4] Xanthe is Sheila's granddaughter and the half-sister of Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan). Their father Gary (Damien Richardson) also made a return to be with the family.[4]

After arriving in Erinsborough, Xanthe makes her way to Number 26 Ramsay Street. When no one answers the door, she heads towards the garden, but Daniel Robinson (Tim Phillipps) advises her to come back later instead, as there has been a number of burglaries in the area. Xanthe goes to The Waterhole and tries to get her meal for free by claiming there is a hair in her food. Sheila Canning thinks Xanthe planted the hair and she tries to run out the door, but is stopped by Kyle Canning. Constable Mark Brennan (Scott McGregor) gives Xanthe a warning. Sheila and Kyle later spot Xanthe in their garden and she tells them that she is looking for Gary Canning, as he is her father. Sheila tells Xanthe that Gary is her son and he is in prison. Sheila also learns Xanthe's mother Brooke has run off. Xanthe clashes with Kyle and she later leaves. She ends up staying in a show home. Xanthe befriends Piper Willis (Mavournee Hazel), who suggests throwing a party and charging an entry fee as a way to make money. After being caught by Brennan, he tells Xanthe that she can either stay with Sheila or be taken to a foster home. Sheila enrols Xanthe at Erinsborough High and she initially refuses to go, until Kyle talks with her. On her first day, Xanthe struggles with a reading exercise and is taunted by Alison Gore (Madeleine Andreopoulos).

Xanthe takes Brad Willis's (Kip Gamblin) iPad and makes copies of an exam, which she sells to other students, including Piper. She is caught and suspended for a week. Xanthe organises a party at Robinson's Motel for Ainsley Gilzan (Emma Lucy Haughey) when she and her friends are also suspended for cheating. Sheila breaks the party up and is reprimanding Xanthe when she collapses with chest pains due to a panic attack. Xanthe takes care of Sheila after she is discharged, but soon realises that she has been making out her condition is worse than it is and they argue again. Sheila collapses with a heart attack, but Xanthe believes she is faking it and leaves her alone. Kyle later calls the DHS about the incident and as Sheila cannot take care of her, Xanthe is taken to a group home. After a meeting with her DHS caseworker, Kyle apologises to Xanthe and she agrees to stay. Xanthe and Piper compete for a job at Harold's. Lauren Turner (Kate Kendall) gives the job to Xanthe, despite her poor performance. When everyone falls ill at a council event, Lauren realises Xanthe is responsible for the food poisoning and is tempted to fire her. But Sheila convinces her not to and Xanthe learns Sheila bribed Lauren into giving her the job in the first place. Xanthe sneaks off from her school to meet one of her idols, actress Katherine Kelly Lang, but she is caught by Sheila. When Ben Kirk (Felix Mallard) returns, Xanthe is instantly attracted to him. She hangs out with Ben for the day and she gets drunk, resulting in her being sick on Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne). Ben is banned from seeing Xanthe. However, Xanthe invites Ben to sneak out with her by arranging a meet-and-greet with his favourite guitarist Angus Young at Lassiter's Hotel. Xanthe and Ben find a large amount of money in Tom Quill's room and argue about whether to keep it. Xanthe dresses stylishly for a photoshoot on Instagram. Xanthe is the victim of cyber-bullying.

I love causing trouble and there are definitely a few surprises in store where Jacka is concerned."[7]

Steph Scully recognises her old friend Jacka, after he pulls his bike up alongside her and Mark Brennan (Scott McGregor). Steph suggests they round up their old friends for a beer and a talk. When Jacka mentions that they have been kicked out of their usual place, Steph invites them to Robinsons Motel.

Upon his return to Melbourne, Morley was offered a regular role with Neighbours.[8] He began filming in December 2015.[8]

John was initially billed as having "a mysterious past" and no family connection to Erinsborough.[8] Morley commented that it was "an interesting start" for his character.[10] He continued, "I'm sure the audience will have lots of questions like, 'Who is this guy? What's he doing here?' He's not related to anyone so why is he in the situation that he is the first time we see him?"[10] The actor thought John would be likeable, but would cause some controversy.[10] John will befriend Paige Smith (Olympia Valance), who tries to help him.[8] Morley told Holly Byrnes of The Daily Telegraph, "Paige helps him to discover who he is...working out why he's there and what's his story. It's been fun piecing together the puzzle."[8]

Shortly after arriving at the Lassiter's Complex, John Doe bumps into Paige Smith. They run into each other again outside the hotel, just as the boiler room explodes. John Doe throws himself on top of Paige to protect her. He is taken to the hospital, where he remains in a coma.

Ned is the son of Brad Willis (Kip Gamblin) and Beth Brennan (Natalie Imbruglia).[11] His introduction united all of Brad's children on-screen for the first time.[11] Hall explained that Ned has been living with his grandparents in Darwin.[12] He also said there would be tension between Ned and Brad, explaining "having missed out on a childhood with his immediate family he will now have a different learning experience. Learning how to be a brother and a son, all those things. He gets it right sometimes and he gets it wrong sometimes too."[12] Ned is a tattoo artist and Hall commented that it would lead to some "mischief".[12] He also described Ned as being "very complex" and "quite manipulative", adding "he has had a bit to deal with and it's really interesting how his story line pans out."[11]
