Neighbours has hinted that Paul Robinson could be in big trouble in this year's Christmas episodes.

The Aussie soap will be airing throughout the festive season again this year – and there's a high-stakes storyline planned as dangerous killer Robert Robinson escapes.

Show bosses have previously confirmed that Robert will take the opportunity to flee from Erinsborough Hospital after agreeing to donate a kidney to his half-brother David Tanaka. This leaves David in a critical condition.

Once back on Ramsay Street, Robert holds pregnant Elly Conway at knifepoint while she's in labour.

However, Neighbours' new footage shows that Paul could also be in the firing line.

When Paul returns home after an emotional day, he finds his wife Terese in a state of panic thanks to Robert.

Robert greets Paul with the words "merry Christmas, dad". Given their history, will he take this opportunity for another attempt at revenge against Paul?

Other storylines taking centre stage include the ongoing love triangle between Elly, Finn Kelly and Bea Nilsson.

The Ramsay Street residents also come together to remember Sonya Rebecchi, when a Christmas Day carol concert is held in her honour. However, the festive season ultimately takes its toll on Toadie, who's reminded of how much he misses his late wife.

Neighbours airs on Christmas Day at 12.50pm and 6.15pm on Channel 5 (UK) and 6.30pm on 10 Peach (Australia).
