Neighbours' Darcy Tyler to be poisoned as he's finally caught out

Susan realises what her nephew is up to…

Neighbours favourite Susan Kennedy drugs dastardly Darcy Tyler next week – after he sneakily slips sedatives into her tea.

As his web of lies begins to unravel, Darcy becomes increasingly desperate and attempts to poison his aunt to buy himself some time. But as he makes plans to flee Erinsborough, Susan's onto him…

Darcy should know better than to think he can pull the wool over Susan's eyes," our Neighbours source shares.

"She quickly clocks what he's doing and swaps their cups of tea while he's not looking. So Darcy himself ends up drinking from the poisoned chalice."

The week kicks off with Susan's husband Karl recovering in hospital following his stroke.

Darcy claimed that Karl had taken more opioids, which triggered the medical emergency – but as Susan watches over her comatose husband in hospital, she's not at all surprised when Remi Varga-Murphy confirms that no prescription painkillers were found in his system.

Meanwhile, Paul Robinson bumps into Tess Bell, who admits that her ex-husband is planning to skip town and has begged her to go with him.

Realising that Darcy is trying to cover his tracks after doing something terrible, Paul approaches Susan with his suspicions that her nephew is somehow responsible for Karl's stroke…

At the same time, Karl finally wakes up from his coma – only to discover Darcy by his beside, injecting more medication into his drip. Having successfully stopped Karl from revealing the truth – for now, at least – Darcy prepares to flee.

"Before he can get away, Darcy bumps into Susan," our insider continues. "She soon clocks his packed bags and attempts to engage him in conversation in a bid to halt his escape.

"When Darcy offers to make them both a tea and secretly slips in a pill, he's convinced he has the upper hand. But he's sadly mistaken…"

Later, Darcy comes round in hospital and finds himself handcuffed to the bed – he's under arrest!

With strong evidence to suggest that he poisoned Karl and killed Amanda Harris, it looks as though the devious doctor will finally get his comeuppance.
