First Home and Away episode details for 2022 revealed
The first synopses for Home and Away in 2022 have been released, giving us the first official details of what’s to come in the show’s return week.
Home and Away returns to Australian screens on Monday 31st January. As has become the norm in recent years, the show will air from Monday to Thursday at 7pm, with a triple bill of episodes on Thursday evening.
While UK viewers only had to wait a few weeks for the Summer Bay soap to return after its Christmas break, Australian viewers will have endured a break of over 9 weeks by the time the show returns in nine days’ time.
Home and Away‘s first episode of 2022 will open where it left off, with Mia (Anna Sampson) being pursued by Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) as she tries to drive away with Matthew’s (James Sweeny) body in her boot.
Meanwhile, Ryder (Lukas Radovich) is trapped underground after his and Ryder’s (Matt Evans) latest prank went wrong.
As the return week goes on, Ari (Rob Kipa-Williams) will put his life on the line to save his girlfriend and step-daughter from jail, and Ryder will “say his final goodbye”.
There’s drama elsewhere, as Alf (Ray Meagher) asks Martha (Belinda Giblin) for answers before Roo (Georgie Parker) and Martha reach breaking point.
There’s also potential heartbreak in store for Summer Bay’s newest doctor, as a secret kiss and the arrival of a “mysterious woman” will threaten to destroy Logan (Harley Bonner) and Mackenzie’s (Emily Weir) relationship.
