Neighbours, Susan Kennedy

The scene is set for an angry clash when Susan Kennedy and Sheila accidentally attend the same grief support group on Neighbours...

Susan Kennedy (played by Jackie Woodburne) has been in a fragile state after everything that happened with twisted Finn Kelly on Neighbours (1:45pm/5:30pm on Channel 5, see our TV Guide for full listings).

Worried about her wellbeing, Susan's husband, Karl (Alan Fletcher) and her niece, Bea Nilsson (Bonnie Anderson) convince her to attend a grief support group, hoping it will help her deal with her complicated feelings surrounding Finn's death.

But the family are unaware it's the same support group being attended by grieving neighbour, Sheila Canning (Colette Mann), who has already made it clear she blames Susan for the death of her son, Gary.

What will happen when Sheila and the Kennedy family all come face-to-face again?
