She then worked in several television series for the Grundy Organisation, and in 1977 played a guest role in the soap opera, The Young Doctors. She then became a popular original cast member of The Restless Years as Alison Clark.[2] Newbould left in early 1979, and her character was killed off.[3] Soon afterwards she took a role as reporter Kate Ashton in Daily at Dawn.[3]

In 2008, Newbould starred in the ABC comedy drama The Cut as Roz Telford.[2]
