Casting

On 15 October 2014, Daniel Kilkelly of Digital Spy reported that the estranged father of established character Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan), would soon be introduced for a guest stint.[4] Kilkelly confirmed that the character's scenes had already been filmed and his presence would "shake up life for the popular Canning family."[4] Richardson's casting as Gary was announced on 3 November.[5] He had previously appeared in Neighbours in the guest role of Kim White in 1992.[6][7]

Development

Characterisation and early storylines

The official website describes Gary as being "an easy-going likeable bloke who enjoys nothing more than lazy afternoons at the pub with a few mates, or long days with a fishing rod at some quiet spot."[8] Gary also enjoys getting to know new people, and often uses his sense of humour to ease tense social situations.[8] Although he is skilled as a handyman, Gary dislikes hardwork and will try to take short cuts to make easy money.[8] In 2016, Gary takes up pigeon racing as a hobby. Richardson joked that the birds were great to work with.[9] He also said Gary was doing his best to stay out of prison, saying that for now, "Gary's on the straight and narrow".[9]

In his fictional backstory, Gary walked out on his family when Kyle was only eight years old, and he did not see or speak to his son for sixteen years.[4] When Gary asks his mother Sheila Canning (Colette Mann) for money, Kyle's wife Georgia Brooks (Saskia Hampele) contacts him and asks that he visit Kyle, who has longed for a relationship with his father.[10] Milligan explained that if he was in Kyle's shoes he would want answers as to why Gary left the family and did not attempt to contact him.[11] When Gary and Kyle come face-to-face, Kyle is not sure if he should hit or hug his father. Milligan explained, "Kyle has really wanted his dad to come back and be part of his life for so long, but when he does, he doesn't know how he is feeling or how to react with his emotions. It's going to be a bit of a shake-up, but hopefully it works out for them!"[4] Milligan praised Richardson's casting, believing that his portrayal of Gary showed viewers where Kyle inherited his "bogan and larrikin attitude from".[4] He added that there were a few similarities between Gary and Kyle, like their stupidity and their jobs as handymen, which made them "a great father-son mix".[11] As well as Kyle and Sheila, Gary is also reunited with his sister Naomi Canning (Morgana O'Reilly).[4]

Naomi tires of Sheila's "blatant favouritism" of Gary, and tries to get him to reveal an event from his "dark past" that they both know about.

Ezra Hanley (Steve Nation) in exchange for money from Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis). As Gary prepares to leave town, Sheila confronts him and asks him to give himself up to the police, but Gary flees the house.[12] Sheila suffers a heart attack, which Naomi initially blames herself for causing. But when Gary arrives at the hospital, he soon admits that he and Sheila had a big argument after she learned that he attacked Ezra.[13] Naomi is "furious" with her brother, so she tells Kyle that the real reason Gary walked out on his family all those years ago was because he took part in a robbery and went on the run.[13] A devastated Kyle then calls the police on his father.[13] Shortly before Gary is taken to jail, Sheila comes to visit him at the police station. She blames herself for how he has turned out, but Gary assures her that she is a great mother. Gary is "delighted" when Kyle eventually walks in and they say their goodbyes.[14]

Reintroduction

In October 2015, Mann hinted that a member of the Canning family would be returning to the show. The following day, it was confirmed that Richardson had reprised the role of Gary and had returned to filming, with Gary's return set to air in early 2016.[16] Ahead of his reappearance, Gary's teenage daughter Xanthe Canning (Lily Van der Meer) was introduced. Xanthe was unaware that her father was in prison when she arrived in Erinsborough.[17] When Kyle rejects a visiting order from Gary, Xanthe asks Sheila to take her to the jail to see him instead. Things are initially awkward, but Xanthe is delighted to be reunited with her father. Gary then reveals that he could be getting out of prison soon, and Sheila invites him to live with them once he is released.[17] When Kyle learns of the invitation, he visits Gary and explains his concerns for Xanthe, who he feels needs people in her life who are going to stay around and look after her. Sheila is soon informed that Gary has been involved in a fight with another inmate and his parole will no longer be processed, leading her to realise that Gary started the fight on purpose.[17]

Gary returned on 14 June 2016.[18] He shows up in the prison yard just as Paul Robinson is close to being beaten up by the other inmates, who want protection money from him. Dennis called it "an interesting twist" as it seems Gary is coming to his rescue, while Paul is the reason Gary is in prison in the first place.[19] He continued, "They have a strained relationship, so I don't know if Gary will want to help Paul..."[19] Paul asks for Gary's help in keeping him safe, but Gary does not want to, so Paul tries to con him and Sheila into helping. Gary later has "a confusing conversation" with Paul, that leads Paul to think that Gary has got his back. However, Gary refuses to help Paul, as he has just been granted parole. Paul later ends up in the hospital after being badly assaulted.[20] Richardson wanted to explore Gary and Paul's time in prison further, and thought it would have been fun if they were put in the same cell.[21]

A couple of months after Gary returns home, Xanthe accuses her classmate

Cooper Knights (Charlie Hannaford) of sexually assaulting her. Cooper is later attacked and Gary becomes the prime suspect, which later leads to his arrest.[21] Richardson admitted that Gary was "definitely capable" of committing the attack, going by his history. Richardson told an Inside Soap writer, "He's very frustrated with the way the school is dealing with the issue, and he thinks he can handle it in a much more immediate way."[21] Despite having an alibi from Paul for the time of Cooper's attack, it soon emerges that Cooper was assaulted 15 minutes earlier than the police first thought, meaning Gary is back on top of their suspects list. Richardson explained that all the evidence points toward Gary, and if he is found guilty then his parole will be revoked and he will go back to prison. The actor added, "things are looking very bleak indeed at this point."[21] Ben Kirk (Felix Mallard) later learns that it was Cooper's mother who attacked him, and Xanthe is grateful to him for saving Gary from returning to prison.[22]

Relationship with Terese Willis

In August 2016, Gary was romantically paired with Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou). Gary begins interacting with Terese more when he is paid by Paul to steal her strategy file for the upcoming sale of Lassiters Hotel. Gary goes along with Paul's plan, as he is cash-strapped.[23] Gary soon develops feelings for Terese, and Richardson thought Gary was "batting well above his average". He explained, "Any man that thinks he has the chance of attracting a woman out of his league; you know it's hard to say no. She represents someone who Gary wouldn't have seen himself being with. I mean she owns something. She's corporate."[24] The actor also said Gary feels bad about lying and deceiving Terese, but he has found himself in an awkward situation. Gary has been forced into choosing "the wrong course of action."[24] Gary wins a pigeon race organised by Terese and uses the prize money to clear his debt with Paul.[25] Terese later offers him a job at the hotel, but rescinds the offer when Gary's pigeon is disqualified for doping. Xanthe later admits that she accidentally drugged the bird, which Terese finds amusing and she "spontaneously" asks Gary out to dinner. However, Gary becomes involved in a family matter and stands Terese up, leaving Paul to take his place.[25]

In 2016, Gary ends his relationship with Terese to reconcile with his former partner Brooke Butler, played by Fifi Box (pictured).

Gary and Terese continue to get closer, and Sheila attempts to give him advice on how to win Terese over. Instead, Gary bonds with Terese over parental challenges and she invites him to have coffee with her.

Brooke Butler (Fifi Box) comes to Erinsborough. She grows jealous of Gary's relationship with Terese, and she pretends that she still has feelings for Gary.[29]

Gary reconciles with Brooke, but Xanthe suspects that her mother is planning on scamming him.[30] She warns her father, but Gary assures her that he would know if Brooke was planning on conning him.[30] Brooke later persuades Gary to give her his Family Feud winnings by claiming the jewellery she has sold to the neighbours is being held at Customs.[31] Brooke leaves town when it emerges that the jewellery she sold was fake.[32] Gary and Terese get back together, but their relationship is threatened by Brooke's reappearance. Terese is "horrified" when the Cannings allow Brooke to stay with them.[32] She soon suspects that Gary is cheating on her when she notices their secretive conversations. Gary explains that he is trying to help Brooke reunite with her daughter Jessie, but Terese feels she cannot trust him and ends their relationship.[33] A love triangle develops when Brooke realises she loves Gary, but Gary insists that he loves Terese. Brooke then encourages Gary to propose to Terese, believing that she will reject him and Gary will give up on their relationship.[33] Brooke's plan backfires when Gary and Terese reconcile, and Terese accepts Gary's proposal.[34]

Gary and Terese's relationship is strained when she is diagnosed with breast cancer. Terese initially keeps her diagnosis and treatment from Gary and her daughter,

Nick Petrides (Damien Fotiou) for his help.[37] When Terese learns that her tumours have shrunk, she tells Paul first and they have sex. She returns home to a surprise engagement party organised by Gary.[38] Elmaloglou told Johnathon Hughes of the Radio Times that Terese and Paul have "a shared, spontaneous moment", but she does feel guilty about cheating on Gary. Elmaloglou added, "She knows how much Gary loves her and, despite what she's just done, she loves Gary too."[38] The actress wanted Terese to marry Gary and gain some stability in her life.[38]

During their wedding ceremony, Terese admits to Gary that she cheated on him with Paul. Elmaloglou commented that Gary is "absolutely devastated and in shock. And he's angry, too..."[39] Gary returns to work, but finds that the Lassiters Hotel staff are gossiping about his failed wedding to Terese. Gary is later asked to throw away a couch from Terese's office and Paul reveals that it is the couch that he and Terese had sex on.[40] On the advice on his co-worker, Gary decides to get revenge on Terese by publicly humiliating her at the Lassiters complex re-opening ceremony. He places the couch in the middle of the new walkway and writes "Cheater" on it.[40]

Feud and debt

Following Brooke's departure, Gary begins feuding with neighbour

Kev McNally (Troy Davis) and arranges to carry out some illegal jobs for him.[41] Gary's first job is to move some stolen goods from a car, but he soon finds the car has gone missing. Gary turns to Tyler Brennan (Travis Burns) for help and he eventually finds the car, but it is empty.[42] Gary later accidentally attacks Karl, thinking it was Kev. He tells Sheila that he is in debt and realising that she knows Kev's father, Sheila decides to seduce him to rectify the situation.[43]

Departure

The character was killed off during the show's 35th anniversary episodes on 20 March 2020.

Bea Nilsson (Bonnie Anderson), who are being held hostage by Finn in a mineshaft.[45] In the aftermath, Kyle is left to inform Sheila, who demands that Gary's autopsy is fast-tracked in order to bring her closure.[45] Richardson revealed that when he quit the role, he asked producers for Gary to be killed off by either Paul or Finn, something Mills "appreciated". Richardson said that Gary ended in a "blaze of glory".[46]

At home, Gary finds a missing Xanthe and learns that she took $10,000 from

Reception

Sophie Dainty of Digital Spy branded Gary "troublesome".[16] Bridget McManus of The Sydney Morning Herald thought Richardson was "underutilised" in the role.[47] She also thought the plot in which Gary gets involved with Kev and the stolen car was reminiscent of the television crime series Underbelly.[47] McManus later wrote that although Richardson was convincing as a detective in his former roles, he has "the sort of furtive look that lends itself much more comfortably to roles such as the slightly paranoid ex-con Gary."[48] When Terese learnt she had breast cancer, a South Wales Echo observed "If you were battling a life-threatening illness, who would you turn to? Probably not Gary Canning or Paul Robinson, and yet the pair of them end up arguing over Terese's new treatment – what's more, Gary is devastated that Paul knew about her cancer diagnosis before he did. Maybe he should take a long look at himself and work out why."[49]

The Metro's Katie Baillie expressed her sympathy for Gary when Terese cheated on him, commenting "the poor guy doesn't deserve this".[50] Baillie added that Gary and Terese's relationship had been "rocky to say the least".[50] Ahead of Gary and Terese's wedding, a reporter for the Liverpool Echo noted that "the path of true love has not been a smooth one for this blushing bride and groom, you can bet that tying the knot will turn out to be rather tumultuous."[51] After the aborted ceremony, a South Wales Echo reporter sympathised with Gary and his revenge plan, commenting "After being lied to for months, it's understandable that Gary is feeling angry and hurt. Even Terese although annoyed by his efforts to take revenge in a very public fashion, has to admit that she's brought much of it on herself."[52] In a fan poll run by Back to the Bay, Gary was voted the 57th most popular Neighbours character.[53] A writer from the publication was critical of the character however, calling him "one of those annoying characters that you never seemed to be able to get rid of."[53] The writer also added, "If he wasn’t coming up with some hairbrained scheme, he was punching well above his weight with the woman he pursued. So, when evil Finn Kelly finally took him out with an arrow, he went up a lot in our estimations."[53]
