Neighbours' Sadie Rodwell to be drawn into David Tanaka's death story

Neighbours spoilers follow.

Neighbours' Sadie Rodwell decides to do some detective work next week amid unanswered questions over David Tanaka's death.

Sadie decides to get involved when she sees her dad Andrew struggling to resolve the holes in Eden Shaw's story as part of the police investigation.

Tragedy struck last week after Eden made an unwelcome appearance while David, Aaron Brennan, Nicolette Stone, Leo Tanaka and Krista Sinclair were all on holiday together.

Eden has claimed that he followed Krista from Erinsborough and learned about her pregnancy when he overheard her talking to Leo on their bush walk.

Krista has insisted that this isn't true, as she only spoke to Leo about the baby when they were in the holiday rental.

Next week, Sadie has Andrew's confusion on her mind and she becomes further intrigued when she catches sight of a jumper belonging to Eden.

Sadie remembers seeing the item of clothing once before, so she starts an investigation of her own. Could she ultimately spark a breakthrough in the case?

Neighbours aired David's death in last Thursday's episode (February 1) after he bravely sacrificed his own life to save Eden.

In real life, Takaya Honda – who played David – returned for the Neighbours revival to give his character this final send-off.

Takaya recently told Digital Spy: "When the show was announced as coming back, Neighbours basically asked me if I would be interested in returning.

"I said to them, like I had for the past eight years, that it would all depend on the story and I basically said: 'What have you got?'

"I wanted to come back and actually finish David off properly because obviously at the end of the last season in 2022, everything had to wrap up and they'd wanted David and Aaron to have a nice ending to finish it off that way.

"For David's return, they pitched this storyline almost in its totality – at least in terms of what happens towards the death moment – and I loved it."

Neighbours airs Sadie's discovery on Monday, February 12.

Neighbours releases new episodes from Mondays to Thursdays for free on Amazon Freevee in the UK and US. In Australia, the show airs from Mondays to Thursdays at 4pm on Channel 10, with a 6.30pm repeat screening on 10 Peach.
