Neighbours on 10 – Ramsay Street Welcomes The Varga-Murphy Family. Neighbours Set To Return To Australian Screens In September 2023.
Network 10 is thrilled to introduce a brand-new family to Ramsay Street, with the Varga-Murphy’s set to move into Erinsborough when Neighbours returns to screens in September 2023.
The Varga-Murphy’s join an illustrious list of Ramsay Street dynasties – the Robinson, Kennedy, Rebecchi, Mangel, Scully, Tanaka and Brennan families to name just a few – who have put down roots on Australia’s most famous residential address and entertained a global audience for decades.
Hailing from the other side of the city, the Varga-Murphy family initially take up residence temporarily, and it quickly becomes evident there is more to their arrival than meets the eye.
Wives Cara and Remi, played by Sara West (Don’t Tell, Wakefield, Peter Allen: Not the Boy Next Door) and Naomi Rukavina (Harry Potter Theatre Production, Run Rabbit Run, Pawno), and sons JJ, played by Riley Bryant (Surviving Summer 2) and Dex, played by newcomer Marley Williams in his first television role – make up the Varga-Murphy family.

Sara West, who plays Cara Varga-Murphy, said:
“I’m so honoured to be a part of the new Neighbours legacy and really looking forward to bringing the Varga-Murphy family to Australian and international screens. Cara has a bold, impassioned love for her family and I love that her intentions have, so far, always been good. I hope having the Varga-Murphy’s on tele will help better reflect the beautiful LGBTQIA+ community that I’m proud to be a part of and I can’t wait to share the family with you!”
Naomi Rukavina, who plays Remi Varga-Murphy, said:
“I am thrilled to be joining the new Neighbours legacy. As a stalwart of Australian drama television, the show is on the front foot of showcasing diverse and real representations of Australian families, not in a tokenistic way. The joys, sadness and madness of Neighbours has been a great adventure thus far and the Varga-Murphy family have already formed a special bond off screen and on. I can’t wait to share it with the world.”
Jason Herbison, Neighbours’ Executive Producer, said:
“We are delighted to welcome the Varga-Murphy family to Ramsay Street and the amazing cast portraying them. It feels fitting that the new season will herald the arrival of a new household, with many new stories to tell. They have fitted into Erinsborough beautifully, they are warm, fun and also very unpredictable.”
Neighbours will continue to be broadcast in Australia on Network 10, its home for over three decades. UK and U.S. audiences can view the series on Amazon Freevee plus Prime Video in Australia and New Zealand seven days following free to air viewing on Network 10.
