Home and Away's Indiana Evans joins H20:Just Add Water

Her departure from the Home and Away set earlier this year came as a shock but Indiana Evans is back standing on her own two feet - or rather, swimming with her own tail.

The beach babe has landed a fitting role on Ten's popular kids show H2O: Just Add Water and will play Bella, one of three young girls who lead double lives as mermaids.

The role is expected to be a well-timed door-opener for the former Summer Bay local, who won the Queen Teen award at the 2008 Dolly Teen Choice Awards.

Earlier this year Evans was bounced from the long-running soapie after 4½ years playing Matilda Hunter.

While it doesn't command huge ratings in Australia, H2O: Just Add Water is a mammoth hit around the world, seen in more than 100 countries with a worldwide audience of more than 200 million viewers.

"I am looking forward to taking on a new challenge," said Evans, who is currently dating her former Home And Away co-star Lincoln Lewis.

"The series is highly regarded in the international market and I'm really excited to be joining the team."

I've seena bit of this show, but I'd definitely watch to see Indiana in a new role. I didn't realise it was so big overseas either.

I stumbled across it one day. It was pleasant enough for a kid's show. I mean it's no Ocean Star, but nothing is Ocean Star. Except Ocean Star.

Indiana should just star in a new series of Ocean Star. With Jason. Or it could be a cross-over. Jason's character from Ocean Star discovers Indy's mermaid character while diving. It's perfect!

Oh my god! My secret shame is that I LOVE LOVE LOVE H20!!! And I'm 22 years old! This really is great news for Indiana. I didn't realise it wasn't that popular in Australia, I thought it would have been, but it is definitely a big hit everywhere else. It's always on tv here in Ireland and in the UK, both my nieces love it. Also, I was in America earlier this year and I saw it a few times on tv, and also on a flight from California to Atlanta. I wonder does this mean the whole cast is changing, since Indiana is joining and Cariba Heine is on Blue Water High now. I hope Ricky and Zane don't leave, they're my favourites, especially Zane. Burgess Abernethy is so hot!

Its my secret shame too lol I'm totally addicted to it! I'm glad she's got a new role although I was hoping she'd be in films as she's such a good dramatic actress and that shows pretty light.
