Neighbours' Melanie and Krista to receive devastating news
Neighbours spoilers follow.
Neighbours' Melanie Pearson and Krista Sinclair are set to receive some devastating news.
The Australian soap's recent Flashback Week confirmed that Melanie knew Krista years ago, as she was a housekeeper for Krista's family.
It was also revealed that Krista was on drugs at the time, and Melanie tried to protect her by going to confront the dealers.
However, this backfired when Melanie was caught on CCTV holding the drugs, so she fled from the UK to avoid facing the consequences.

This comes back to haunt them in scenes airing on Thursday, December 28, when Melanie is shocked to learn that she and Krista have been called in for a preliminary interview with the UK Government.
Here, it will be decided whether or not to extradite them for drug possession and absconding.
Melanie's lawyer informs her that they will need character references to prove that Melanie is a law-abiding citizen who got caught up in a complex situation with a powerful family.
However, Melanie is unsettled when her lawyer assumes that she has her ex-husband Toadie's support.
Nell becomes concerned when she overhears Melanie talking to Krista about the interview at Elly and Chloe's wedding.
She then suggests that she request character references on Melanie's behalf after sensing that Melanie is reluctant to press Toadie and his new wife Terese.

Although Melanie reiterates that she doesn't want to ask them, Nell follows through with the request anyway.
Unaware of the circumstances, Toadie tells Terese that Melanie should approach him directly rather than having Nell do it for her.
Adamant that Melanie has crossed the line, Toadie quickly writes up a character reference. But will it be the reference that Mel wants and needs?
