what on earth has happened in neighbours? Libby appears to have had a head-transplant

[Wolfcub]

I hate it when they do this its Pippa in home and away all over again

Love the way they cast the replacement as a petite woman with shoulder length brown hair - like we wouldn't notice.

Kym Valentine, who plays Libby was ill after injuries in a plane crash in late 2008.

She was replaced for 5 weeks filming.

source Wiki Kym Valentine

I read that she had pnuemonia??

NEVER trust wiki online -the encyclopedia that anyone can write rubbish thats never true. ;0) lol

Kym valentine was on a flight back form New York when she collapsed and awoke surrounded by cabin crew. She put it down to stress.She broke up from her partner. When she returned home she realised when she looked in the mirror her skin was yellow . At hospital she DID have pnuemonia and a collapsed lung. She took a month off work and hence she was replaced. She gave an interview about this incident with an Australian magazine.
She is carrying on with her daughter as a single mother ,although ..there are rumours she hooked up with the husband of a nieghbours actress who starrred in Underbelly. (Actress rebecca -her husband and her broke up) Anyway, although Kym and the man are reported to be "just friends" more sources say otherwise..
