Ben’s Brother arrives
We recently revealed that Marco Astoni, played by Tim Walters will be heading to Summer Bay, in a storyline which is to have a dramatic effect on the Astoni family.
Very little has been mentioned about the previously unseen Marco during the Astonis time on the show. However we do know that when Ben has a conviction for assaulting Marco from when he was 18 years old…

Angelo Rosetta returns to Summer Bay
In February it was announced that Luke Jacobz had reprised his role as Angelo Rosetta after nearly 9 years.
The show said in a statement that “It’s been almost a decade since his character Angelo Rosetta left the Bay, and now he’s back on the police force with everything to prove.”

A clue to Leah’s disappearance…
We’ve had very little clues to Leah’s disappearance since she was last seen receiving a phone call from an unknown number.
But now that Leah’s blog has come back to life, we’ve finally got something to go on. A series of new blog posts suggest someone with an anti-feminist agenda is controlling her and/or her blog, and next week there’s a huge new development as she posts a photo announcing that she’s “engaged”.
This fits with the image we saw in the 2020 promo, which showed her running through the woods in a wedding dress.
With more and more clues emerging, we take a look at the potential suspects, fan theories, and some of our own speculation, and try to piece together what’s happened to Leah.
New doctor Alex Neilson
Dr Alex leaves?
Dr Alex Neilson (Zoë Ventoura) was drafted in to run the ED after Tori was forced into hiding, and it wasn’t long until she fell for Willow Harris. To WIllow’s own surprise, the feelings were mutual, and the two of them have been exploring their feelings for each other over the past few weeks.
However, with Tori now back and slowly gaining strength, what will the future hold for Alex once she’s back at Northern Districts Hospital?
Well, as loved as she seems to be by Home and Away fans, we haven’t spotted any photos of Zoë Ventoura on set for a few months. Is it possible the actress was only drafted in to cover Penny Mcnamee’s (Tori) own maternity cover?
Zoë Ventoura and her husband Daniel MacPherson (known for playing Joel Samuels in Neighbours) live in LA, making it’s unlikely she signed a long-term contract.
If our speculation is correct, we’re expecting to see Alex’s final scenes around March. Yet the reasons for leaving town, and leaving Willow behind, are currently totally unknown.
It seems Zoë made an impression on the cast before she left, with Kestie Morassi (Maggie Astoni) posting a photo of them together, writing:
When you’ve found a lovely friend, and together you find some lovely light and take a lovely picture. @zoe_ventoura You’re just so bloody lovely and I just absolutely legit love you
Will Bella go too far for Colby’s attention?
Bella’s manipulation of Colby has been getting more extreme in recent weeks.
With Colby overhearing Bella tell Mackenzie that “I promise you you’ll be long forgotten, long before that day ever comes“, he’s finally clocked that his sister has been trying to manipulate him.
And with Colby now doubting that his sister has been ill for the last few weeks, Bella gets more desperate, downing a bottle of pills in the season finale in an effort to make him think she wasn’t totally faking things.
She’s rushed to hospital and gets herself caught up in the siege. However, it seems the medical emergency and near death situation still isn’t enough to calm the teen, with speculation that Bella’s actions could be set to become even more dramatic in 2020.
In the trailer for the second episode of the Home and Away Christmas Specials, Jason Smith asks Courtney Miller “How far will Bella go to protect her brother?”
In perhaps a joking move, but maybe a sign of what’s to come, Tim Franklin (Colby) makes a stabbing motion behind Bella’s neck. With the Nixon / Thorne family no stranger to murder, will Bella take things to a lethal end?
Cameron Daddo joins the cast as Ryder’s dad?
As we revealed last year, there could be yet another member of the extended Stewart clan coming out of the woodwork in coming months, with speculation that Ryder’s father is being introduced.
Actor, presenter and musician Cameron Daddo was first pictured by press photographers back in October as he filmed a scene with Georgie Parker (Roo) outside Alf’s bait shop, where Cameron’s character appeared to be introducing himself to a surprised Roo and shaking her hand.
In the same week, Cameron had posted a picture on Instagram sharing his excitement at working with Georgie Parker once again.

Cameron was later spotted by fans on the Official Home and Away Tour in November filming a scene with Lukas Radovich (Ryder), which saw Cameron’s character getting ready to board a waiting bus as Ryder seemingly pleaded with him not to leave. Whether intentional or not, this scene appears to bear a remarkable resemblance to a scene from 1995, where Alf stopped Ryder’s mother Quinn from leaving Summer Bay after finding out she was his daughter.
Belinda Giblin later posted her own photo from the make-up room featuring Cameron, further confirming that his role appears to have a strong link to the Stewart family.
The 2020 promo all but confirmed the theory about Cameron playing Ryder’s father, when we saw a short clip of his character arriving at Summer Bay House with his guitar, where he revealed to an unseen character “I’m your dad“.
Not a huge amount is currently known about Ryder’s dad. When Quinn visited the bay in 2017 after Ryder’s appearance, she explained that she had met Ryder’s father on a cruise ship, and that he was a musician like her. He had wanted to settle on the Gold Coast, but ended up leaving Quinn to bring up Ryder on her own.
Further Instagram posts have been made in February which seem to suggest that Cameron’s character could be sticking around for a while (or has at least returned after an initial stint). Cameron has been given his own pigeon-hole in the cast green room, and he also posted another group photo with Georgie Parker and Emily Symons
