Paul Stewart Robinson is a fictional character from the Australian soap opera ''Neighbours'', a long-running serial drama about social life in the fictional Melbourne suburb of Erinsborough. He is played by Stefan Dennis. Paul debuted in the serial's first episode in 1985 and appeared on a regular basis until 1992 when Dennis quit the serial to pursue other projects. Dennis briefly reprised the role in 1993. Dennis returned to ''Neighbours'' full-time in 2004. He later said it had been a mistake to leave the series. Paul was created by producer Reg Watson as one of ''Neighbours''' original characters. He made his debut in the soap's first episode on 18 March 1985 and is the only original actor still featured in current episodes. In the late 1980s Paul evolved into a powerful, arrogant and sometimes villainous business man. In 2007, as part of the reinvention of the serial, Paul's evil ways were mellowed through a brain tumour plot. Dennis has often spoke of his admiration for Paul's evil persona, stating it is what makes him an entertaining character. He has been at the centre of many high profile storylines including money laundering, a leg amputation, being held hostage, convicted to time in prison and many scams against fellow characters. He has been married five times and had countless affairs, proving to be an intense womaniser. Paul's evil side and his womanising have been well received by critics who found it entertaining. Dennis has garnered various award nominations for his portrayal of Paul. ==Casting== In 1984, Stefan Dennis received a phone call from his agent who told him about an audition for a new soap called ''Neighbours''. Dennis said "I wasn't that keen because I was more interested in a feature film I had auditioned for and felt sure I was going to get".〔 Dennis originally auditioned for the roles of Shane Ramsay and Des Clarke (the roles were later given to Peter O'Brien and Paul Keane respectively), but was cast as Paul Robinson instead. ''Neighbours'' was cancelled by Seven Network seven months after its debut. However, it was revived by Network Ten and Dennis reprised his role as Paul from January 1986 onwards.〔 He is the only current cast member who appeared in the first episode on 18 March 1985.〔 In 1992, Dennis quit the role because he no longer felt challenged as an actor, he stated: "I was literally walking through it, I thought 'this is not good for acting, this doesn't keep me fresh at all, time to move on'." Dennis has said that one of his favourite moments was being asked to come back and celebrate ''Neighbours''' 2000th episode.〔 In 2004, Dennis reprised his role and returned to ''Neighbours'', after he was asked to return for the 20th anniversary, instead he reached an agreement to resume the role permanently again, a year before the anniversary. Alan Dale who played his onscreen father, Jim Robinson helped Dennis to make the decision to return. Dennis has since admitted that he made a mistake quitting ''Neighbours'' in 1992. He said "I was stupid. I thought I was going to go to Hollywood and conquer the world, and I didn't."〔 Amongst the current cast of ''Neighbours'', Dennis is the only remaining original cast member. In 2010, Dennis revealed that he wanted to stay in the role for at least another five years.
