    Neighbours dominated Round 1, with fans turning out in force to throw their weight behind their favourites.<\/p>\n

    All four shortlisted Neighbours characters made the cut: Toadie, Mike, Susan and Mackenzie.<\/p>\n

    If your favourite made it through to the next round, you\u2019ll need to come back tomorrow (Tuesday 21st March) from 10:30am to support them once again as they battle it out for a place in the Quarter-Finals.<\/p>\n

    And if your pick didn\u2019t get through, then all the more reason to show up and back your favourite soap harder in Round 2!<\/p>\n

    The second Round comprises seven head-to-heads \u2013 and only the winners are guaranteed a place in the Quarter-Finals, so the stakes are high.<\/p>\n

    The seven losers find themselves in the unenviable position of having to vie for a single remaining place in the next Round by competing in a Wildcard decider on Wednesday (March 22nd).<\/p>\n
