Stefan revisits first screen kiss with co-star Colette

Every actor remembers his or her first screen kiss, and for Neighbours stalwart Stefan Dennis he is reminded of this milestone every day.

Stefan, aka Paul Robinson, first puckered up for the cameras over 30 years ago with new Neighbours cast member Colette Mann, on the set of the cult series Prisoner. He was playing a 16-year-old guest character opposite Colette, one of the show’s then biggest stars.

'I was so nervous, just hopeless,' jokes Stefan. 'I was surrounded by this bevy of major actresses, really big stars, and here I was in my first significant ongoing role.'

Colette, who played Doreen Anderson, recalls Stefan bouncing around the set.

'He couldn’t stand still so the director would tell me follow him around and when he slows down, move in on him for a two shot,' says Colette. 'I’d have to almost pounce on him; it was quite primal actually.'

It’s too early to say if their Neighbours characters will be locking lips in upcoming storylines; however, from the shots posted today, the two seasoned pros are very happy to play up for the cameras if required.
