There's an unwelcome surprise in store for Karl Kennedy when his one-time girlfriend/author, Olivia Bell returns to Erinsborough!

Karl Kennedy (played by Alan Fletcher) gets an unwelcome surprise on today's episode of Neighbours (1:45pm/5:30pm on Channel 5, see our TV Guide for full listings).

The doctor is down at Harold's Cafe where he comes face-to-face with Oliva Bell (Alyce Platt)!

Remember, Olivia?

She caused a whole lot of trouble last year when she wrote a tell-all book about killer, Finn Kelly.

The Kennedy family were disgusted by the book, which basically blamed them for Finn's crimes.

However, it seems Olivia wants to make amends.

She wants to write a new version of The Devil You Know, and set the record straight.
