Amy Williams (also Robinson) is a fictional character from the Australian soap opera Neighbours, played by Zoe Cramond. The character was originally played by child actress Nicolette Minster in 1988, while Sheridan Compagnino took over the role for Amy's reappearance in 1992. In May 2015, it was announced Amy would be returning to Neighbours and Cramond was cast in the role. She made her first screen appearance as Amy on 2 June 2015. Amy is the eldest child of Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis).

The character's early storylines focused on meeting and getting to know her father and his family. Following her return in 2015, Amy is portrayed as being straightforward, opinionated, complex and independent. She is a qualified carpenter and Cramond hoped Amy would be a good role model for female viewers who wanted a similar occupation. Amy is a single mother to Jimmy Williams (Darcy Tadich), Paul's first grandchild. Amy struggles to reconcile with her father and Cramond said Amy had a lot of pain to deal with. Amy's later storylines included the introduction of her former husband Liam Barnett (James Beck), a relationship with Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan), and a relationship with Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano), which ends when he is revealed to be her half-brother. Cramond's departure from the show aired on 1 January 2020. She made a brief appearance on 30 March 2020 and returned for the final episodes of Neighbours on 25 July 2022.

Creation and casting

Amy was introduced to Neighbours as the first child of established character Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis).[1] Nicolette Minster was cast as Amy when she was around three years old.[2] Paul was unaware that he had fathered a child, until his former colleague Nina Williams (Leigh Morgan) brought Amy with her to Erinsborough. Nina admitted to Paul that Amy was the result of "a short fling" they had during their time working for the airlines.[1] When the character returned to the show in 1992, Sheridan Compagnino took over the role.[3] Paul brought Amy back to Erinsborough as he had realised that he wanted Amy to get to know him better.[4]

In March 2015, it was announced that a storyline would see Paul trying to find Amy after receiving a cancer diagnosis.[5] On 17 May 2015, it was confirmed that Amy would be re-introduced to Neighbours with Zoe Cramond taking over the role.[6] Cramond was cast in March.[7] Cramond commented, "I grew up watching Neighbours so it is a big thrill for me to be part of the show."[8] Cramond said that the many elements of Amy's personality had attracted her to the role.[9]

Development

Characterisation

Cramond described Amy "very straightforward yet quite complex".[9] While a writer for Amy's profile on the Neighbours website called her "fiercely independent".[10] Cramond admitted that she shared some similarities with Amy, including her opinionated side.[9] She continued, "When I'm getting involved with a character I like to go straight to my qualities as a person and kind of work from there, it's a nice way to discover a character."[9] Amy is a qualified carpenter and Cramond liked that Amy was a female "tradie", as it made her unique.[8][9] Cramond called her brother and uncle for advice as they are both builders.[8] She wanted to get it right and said, "I grew up with builders in the family so it's not as if I don't know which end to hold a saw."[8] Cramond hoped the character would be a good role model for girls who wanted a similar job.[8]

Family

"Amy and Paul have a lot to work through, and that's going to be very interesting. Amy doesn't know her father, so trying to determine if he is genuine or not is difficult for her. But there's lots of fun and exciting drama to come!"[11]

—Cramond on Amy and Paul's relationship

Amy's relationship with her stepmother Christina (Gayle Blakeney) was difficult and they argued upon her reintroduction in 1992. Lisa Anthony from BIG! magazine observed two as being "at each other's throats" while Paul was caught in the middle of their bickering. Amy also stressed that she did not want to live with Paul which caused arguments between them too. Following one such altercation Amy ran in front of Paul's reversing car and he knocked her down. Amy is left unconscious and stops breathing.[12]

When Amy turned up unannounced at Paul's penthouse, he initially failed to recognise her. Cramond said Amy felt "really hurt and angry" by his reaction and let him know it.[11] Amy came to confront Paul, but deep down she wanted a relationship with her father.[11] Cramond explained, "This is the first time she's seen her dad since she was a child, so she gets to say all the things she's wanted to say to him for all these years."[11] Amy struggled to get past the hurt caused by Paul's absence and she became conflicted about staying.[11] Cramond admitted to being "transfixed" by the character of Paul Robinson and told Russell Blackstock of The New Zealand Herald that it was "a bit surreal" playing his daughter and arguing with him.[8] When asked if she could reconcile with an absentee father, Cramond explained that it was a hard question to answer. She thought that Amy had "a lot of pain" to confront and added "because of her son she wants them to have a relationship and through that, without her even realising at first, she develops a connection with her dad again."[9]

Amy was reintroduced along with her young son and Paul's first grandchild Jimmy (Darcy Tadich).[6] Amy profile states that as a single mother, Amy would do anything for her son.[10] Cramond called Tadich fun to act alongside and said he was "such a sweet boy!"[9] Amy is separated from Jimmy's father, as he was unreliable and eventually betrayed her.[10] Amy was not planning to stay around after reconciling with Paul, but after securing employment and realising how much Jimmy needed to get to know his grandfather, Amy decided to stay.[13] Shortly after returning to Erinsborough, Amy befriended Sonya Rebecchi (Eve Morey) and arranged to do some work around her house.[11] Amy also developed a friendship with a newly returned Stephanie Scully (Carla Bonner).[14] When Jimmy went missing, Paul immediately accused Steph of taking him because of her history. But Amy refused to believe it as she liked Steph.[14] Amy's former husband Liam Barnett (James Beck) then admitted that he was in debt to a loan shark and believed Jimmy may have been kidnapped for ransom.[14] Amy was "furious" with Liam for putting their son in danger. Cramond told an Inside Soap columnist, "She irrationally lashes out at him in the heat of the moment – Jimmy means the world to Amy, so she wants Liam to pay for what he's done."[14] When Liam's loan shark denied taking Jimmy, Steph become the prime suspect again.[14]

Relationships

Kyle Canning

Amy begins working closely with Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan), whose wife is away overseas. When asked if there would be a romance between them, Cramond replied "Who knows? They clash at the beginning, but soon become good mates!"[9] Amy and Kyle eventually develop a strong friendship. Their bond grows when they spend a lot of time together trying to replace a lost teddy bear.[13] Amy and Kyle develop feelings for each other, but they miss the chance to be together due to his marital problems and the arrival of her former husband Liam.[15] Kyle later dates Shay Daeng (Yasmin Kassim), but there is still a "spark" between him and Amy, which becomes clear to everyone when they compete in a pool competition. Kyle later kisses Amy.[15]

Georgia sends Kyle a letter telling him she wants him back, causing Kyle to put off making Christmas plans with Amy, who is hurt by his lack of commitment to their relationship.[16] Georgia later returns to Erinsborough and Amy finds her and Kyle kissing in a hotel room. Amy is "devastated" by Kyle's betrayal and flees the room just as the hotel's boiler explodes, which briefly traps her and Kyle in a lift.[16] Kyle ends his relationship with Amy and decides to move to Germany with Georgia. He offers Amy his half of the handyman business and explains to Jimmy his reasons for leaving.[16] Milligan reprised his role a few months later and Kyle returns for Sheila's 60th birthday party. Amy initially pretends that she has been coping without Kyle, but she later lashes out at his failure to acknowledge how much he hurt her. Amy decides that she and Jimmy should leave Number 26, causing Jimmy to confront Kyle for disrupting their lives.[17]

Leo Tanaka

Amy develops an on-off relationship with Paul's rival Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano), as she helps him and his brother David Tanaka (Takaya Honda) to find their father.[18] Of Amy and Leo's early relationship, Cramond said "I think there's something that draws her towards him but he just keeps letting her down and that's kind of a repetition of all the men in Amy's life."[18] Leo pursues Amy for a number weeks and she initially resists his advances, until he finally persuades her to go out on a date with him.[19] Amy and Leo have a good time, until Elly Conway (Jodi Anasta) interrupts the date and reveals that she and Leo had a bet about whether he could get Amy to go out with him by Christmas.[19] Kano commented that Amy was "furious and heartbroken" by Leo's actions. Amy thought the relationship was going somewhere and she feels let down and embarrassed.[19]

Amy and Leo later reconcile and begin dating. Shortly before they have sex, they learn that Paul is David and Leo's father, making them half-siblings.[20] Cramond called the revelation "awkward… horrible… mortifying."[21] The actress also said that it would be hard for both of them to move on and repair their relationship. Cramond explained that Amy has bad luck with romance and is always falling for the "wrong kind of guys".[21] She confirmed that Amy would have further bad luck with romance when she dates a man with a criminal past.[21]

Departure and return

Cramond's departure from Neighbours was confirmed on 10 December 2019, and her final scenes aired on 1 January 2020.[22] Amy's exit storyline sees her move to New York City on a permanent basis, so she can be with her son, Jimmy. Tadich reprised his role to facilitate the character's exit.[22] Amy learns beforehand that Jimmy has been going through "a troublesome teenage phase" and he briefly goes missing, before turning up in Erinsborough. His arrival allows the two to talk and Amy gets him to open up about his issues.[22] She helps out Jimmy's girlfriend, who is the victim of domestic violence, and decides to fly out to New York after Christmas to check on the situation. Jimmy later admits that he wants her to be with him permanently.[23] Amy's exit also leads to the break up of her relationship with Kyle, as she tells him she needs a fresh start.[22] Of the character's departure, series producer Jason Herbison explained: "2019 was a turbulent year for Amy and she ultimately makes the right decision for herself. Jimmy is very much a factor in her plans, so in many ways, she's come full circle since she arrived in the show."[23] Herbison also confirmed that Amy's exit would have repercussions for Kyle and his future relationships.[23] Cramond reprised the role for a brief appearance on 30 March 2020, as Amy appears via video call after learning of Gary Canning's (Damien Richardson) death.[24]

On 7 May 2022, Dan Seddon of Digital Spy announced Cramond had reprised the role of Amy for the final episodes of Neighbours following its cancellation.[25] Cramond was one of many cast members who agreed to return for the show's final stories. The "most memorable characters" from each decade were chosen to return and Executive producer Herbison explained that it ensured there was "something for everyone as Neighbours draws to a close."[25]

Gary becomes increasingly insecure about the debt he owes Amy, and he takes on a driving job, which sees him moving stolen goods from the Robinson Pines site. When Amy finds out, she breaks up with Gary and moves back to the penthouse.

Gary vows to win Amy back and works several jobs to repay his debt. Amy and Gary's relationship improves, but Sheila's meddling constantly sets them back. Amy eventually tells him to set boundaries with Sheila so they can reconcile. Paul discovers Gary is planning to propose to Amy, and he invites Kyle back to Erinsborough to take over Amy's job at the housing site and cause trouble between his father and his ex-girlfriend. Although Kyle accidentally interrupts Gary's proposal, Amy still accepts. She insists she loves Gary, even though Kyle has separated from Georgia. Paul forces Amy to spend time with Kyle in the hope that her feelings for him will return. Gary brings Jimmy over for Amy's birthday and arranges a surprise wedding, which she quickly shuts down. After the failed nuptials, Kyle admits he left Georgia in the hope of reconciling with Amy. She is shocked, but recommits to Gary.

After several clashes with Paul, Amy realises that she is better off with Kyle and so breaks up with Gary. Their relationship appears to be going smoothly until a plumber finds a hidden video camera in a Lassiter's room she and Kyle had stayed in. After Scarlett Brady (Christie Whelan Browne) is arrested, she leaks the footage of Kyle and Amy to the media. Kyle then decides to launch a class-action suit against Lassiter's with Toadie's help. As a result, Kyle and Amy grow more distant as he commits to seeing the lawsuit through. Kyle's exhaustion leads him to inadvertently strike David with his car, leaving David seriously injured and needing a kidney transplant. Amy restrains Paul when he lashes out at Kyle. Liam informs Amy that Jimmy has been acting strangely, and she soon learns that Kyle had a go at Jimmy during a video call, causing Jimmy to go missing. When Jimmy arrives in Erinsborough, he confuses Amy by stealing a cake and some money from her purse. Amy finds Jimmy at the Backpackers and learns that he is protecting his girlfriend Maya Preston (Hannah Ogawa), who is being abused by her father. Amy subsequently speaks to Maya's mother and helps Maya fly home to New York for Christmas with her grandparents, assuring her she will ensure her safety after David's kidney transplant. Jimmy later confesses that he misses having Amy in his life, and would like her to come to New York with him. After a disagreement with Kyle, which culminates in their break up, Amy agrees and leaves for New York with Jimmy and Leo. A few months later, Amy video-calls Kyle and Sheila after learning of Gary's death. She apologises for not being able to attend the funeral, and Kyle asks her to commemorate Gary in New York.

Two years later, Amy joins her siblings on a video call with Paul. Her half-sister Elle Robinson (Pippa Black) explains that Amy is working on an apartment construction and has a boyfriend. Amy and her siblings then suggest that Paul, David and Leo move to New York to be with them.

Reception

A contributor to the BBC's official Neighbours website said Amy's most notable moment was her arrival.[3] Lisa Anthony from BIG! magazine branded Paul running Amy over as the biggest soap storyline of the week in the United Kingdom.[12] After the character's 2015 return, a Soap World contributor branded her "mysteriously sexy and tomboyish".[26] Carena Crawford from All About Soap branded the character "sassy".[27] While The New Zealand Herald's Russell Blackstock called her a "feisty solo mum".[8] Anthony D. Langford from TheBacklot.com liked Amy, calling her "a great character". He thought she and Kyle had chemistry, but did not want to see Kyle cheat on his wife with her.[28]

Inside Soap's Sarah Ellis also praised the character, saying "Amy's one feisty lady! And luckily, she's sticking around."[29] Ellis later stated "luckily, lovely Amy is nothing like her wicked father."[30] After Amy learned Leo was her brother, a Liverpool Echo reporter felt sorry for her, writing "Poor Amy. She thought she'd found a handsome and reliable young man to give her heart to – and then it turns out he's her halfbrother."[31] A South Wales Echo also commented on her relationship troubles, saying "Amy's choice of potential partners has been dubious, and she adds another this week – Terese's villainous brother Nick."[32]
