Evelyn watches football with Tank's housemates. Azza's girlfriend Jem arrives with beers and warns Evelyn to be careful, explaining that Tank has many issues - including when it comes to commiting to one girl. When Tank drives her home, Evelyn asks him if he's cheating on her. Tank assures her that there is nobody else and that Jem has it in for him. Evelyn believes every word.

The next day, Tank flirts with Maddy behind Evelyn's back. After Tank leaves, Maddy tells Oscar and Evelyn that Tank made a move on her. Evelyn gives him the benefit of the doubt, but Maddy is sure it happened. The situation escalates into a fight, pushing Maddy to tell Evelyn that she's worried about her. Leah also encourages Evelyn to consider if this is the best time for her to start a new relationship, with her exams only a few weeks away.

Evelyn eventually meets Tank at the pier and she confronts him about what Maddy said. Tank denies the charge, and even though she believes him, Evelyn tells Tank that they should cool off a bit.

Meanwhile, it's the day of the memorial for the twins. With the group gathered on the beach, Phoebe throws out her notes and makes a poignant speech, drawing smiles from everyone and bringing her some comfort. Kyle surprises everyone by pouring his heart out with a touching song in memory of the twins. As the memorial ends, Phoebe tells Kyle that his song was perfect and she's around for him to talk to anytime.

Elsewhere, Kat invites Ricky to have a drink with her and Nate at Angelo's, but Ricky turns it down. Kat later visits Ricky at home and tells her that she doesn't have to keep her distance from Nate - she understands that nothing else is going on and she is always welcome around them. When Kat leaves, Ricky feels horrible - how is she going to make her feelings for Nate go away?

​Home and Away teen Evie MacGuire will suffer a terrifying health scare in an upcoming storyline.

Evie has to face an agonising wait after she discovers she has a lump on her breast and fears it could be breast cancer.

To add to her anxiety, Evie's mother lost her life to breast cancer when she was younger. As Evie's family rally around her during the difficult time, her aunt Hannah Wilson can't help but bring up an important issue.

Hannah wants the family to be tested for the BRCA gene, which increases the chance of getting the illness by a significant amount. However, Hannah's suggestion divides the family, who have very different feelings on the matter.

Whilst he is keen to support his sister Evie through her struggle, Oscar is adamant that he won't be tested for the gene as he would rather not know his fate. Will anything change his mind?

​Philippa Northeast, who plays Evie, told TV Week: "Evie immediately jumps to the conclusion it must be cancer.

"These fears stem from the fact that Evie lost her mother to cancer. It brings back traumatic memories."

Amid her difficult family matters, Hannah soon faces a health crisis of her own when she falls over and suffers a head injury.

Hannah's former boyfriend Chris will be devastated when he finds her unconscious on the pavement after she trips over while rushing to speak to him. Hannah is immediately taken to hospital in a worrying condition, but will she be alright?

Home and Away is set to tackle an "important and sensitive" storyline as one character will discover that they carry the BRCA cancer gene.

Hannah Wilson and twins Evie and Oscar MacGuire will face an anxious wait after they are tested for the gene in upcoming episodes.

The story will begin when Evie is thrown into a health crisis after finding a lump on her breast. Although she is given the all-clear, it prompts Hannah to suggest that they have the test done due to the fact that the twins' mother lost her life to the disease years ago.

However, the family will be left devastated when doctor Nate Cooper reveals that one of them has been tested positive for the gene.


As the character in question faces some very big decisions about their future, the rest of the family rally around them at the difficult time as they vow to support each other.

Philippa Northeast​, who plays Evie, told TV Week: "Hannah suggested the whole family get the BRCA gene test and be put at ease regarding their risk of getting breast or ovarian cancer.

"Evie was quite nervous but she wants to be in charge of her health."

Although the test results will leave the MacGuire family reeling, the story will emphasise that the character with the gene has a chance to control their health.

Speaking about tackling such a sensitive story, Northeast added: "Most people either know someone or are connected to someone who has suffered from cancer. So it's an important storyline that needs to be treated in a sensitive way.​"

Spoiler warning: This article will reveal who dies in the Home and Away explosion.

Home and Away's Evie MacGuire will face the toughest day of her life as she prepares to bury two members of her family, in highly emotional scenes later this month.

The upcoming caravan park explosion has devastating repercussions for poor Evie (Philippa Northeast) who will lose both her twin brother Oscar and aunt Hannah Wilson in the tragedy.

The shock storyline - which will air in the UK next week - sees Oscar die immediately, caused by the explosion, leaving his sister Evie devastated.

Hannah, meanwhile, receives a blow to the head and appears fine afterwards, unaware that the knock has caused internal bleeding which later claims her life when she collapses unexpectedly.

As the day of the pair's joint funeral arrives, an equally grief-stricken Zac tries to keep his family together, doing his best to be stoic for a struggling Evie.

A brave Evie desperately tries to remain strong as Zac delivers a heartfelt eulogy in the moving service. However, she eventually breaks down at the end whilst placing a rose on Hannah and Oscar's coffins.

Josh does his best to comfort his heartbroken girlfriend, but the guilt starts to consume his brother Andy - who inadvertently caused the tragedy whilst having a fight with troublesome Tank Snelgrove. Will Evie's grief drive Andy to confess?

Poor Evie MacGuire has certainly had a tough time of it, but Home and Away is about to air some of her darkest scenes yet in an upcoming story.

A tragic new plot will see grieving teen Evie deliberately endanger her own life after becoming convinced that her dead twin brother Oscar is still looking out for her.

Fans know that Oscar was killed in the caravan explosion earlier in the year. Evie's aunt Hannah also lost her life in the disaster, and her boyfriend Josh later went on the run for murder.

So, after the most challenging of times, Evie is left aghast after she escapes from the (yet to be aired in the UK) plane crash completely unscathed. And she becomes convinced that Oscar is behind the miracle.

But that's not all. Evie believes that she saw a vision of Oscar as the plane hurtled to the ground and will later decide to take more risks in order to be close to him again.

With her reckless behaviour spiralling more and more out of control, Evie is soon driving like a demon behind the wheel of a car - all while she has a terrified Mason Morgan in tow.

Mason is forced to take drastic measures to stop the vehicle (but subsequently sends it plunging into a wall), and furiously delivers some harsh words to Evie in the aftermath.

Understandably, Evie doesn't take Mason's words about Oscar very well and ends up breaking down. Shocking scenes then see her grief take its darkest turn yet as she does the unthinkable.

Sobbing and screaming for Oscar, Evie plunges into the sea, but struggles to breathe and starts to drown. Can anyone save her? And if they do, will it give her the wake up call she needs? Or will her grief for Oscar drive her into further despair?

Philippa Northeast, who plays Evie, has shed some light on Evie's worrying state of mind.

"She hasn't dealt with the pain of losing Oscar", she said to TV Week. "Evie is a lost girl, clinging to anything that might bring him back. She has the idea that if she gets into the water, he will come to her again. She's really hoping for the impossible."

Home and Away: Interesting storylines ahead for Evie, Matt and Leah as things get heated on set.


SPOILER alert — it looks like there’s interesting times ahead for Evie in Summer Bay.

The character, played by Phillipa Northeast, was snapped controversially pashing Matt, played by actor Alex Snow, on the beach this week.

The hitch is, Evie is currently in an on air storyline where she’s got a ‘friends with benefits’ relationship with Mason, who is played by Orpheus Pledger.

By the looks of it, there’s plenty of chemistry between Evie and Matt and Mason was nowhere to be seen as the pair kissed and cuddled by the water.

It’s been a turbulent time for Evie, whose recent on air storyline has included nearly drowning and her brother dying.

With the sun out this week, it was perfect for shooting on location at Palm Beach, where both Ada Nicodemou and Lynne McGranger were also photographed filming scenes.

There may be some drama for Nicodemou’s character, Leah, who was photographed in a heated argument with a new character played by Cheree Cassidy.
