    Daily Telegraph article on Kestie Morassi (Maggie Astoni):


    Acting On An Opportunity.

    FULL-TIME acting work in Australia can be hard to come by. Just ask screen veteran Kestie Morassi, who will lob into Summer Bay this week as new school principal, Maggie Astoni.

    "As an actor, I want to work on anything in an ongoing role!" Morassi told Confidential.

    I've found the experience really positive., everyone on set is so great. I've mainly done guest roles & things like that, so I'm thrilled to be working on Home and Away full-time. That's the goal. It's always great to get something like that.

    "She's the new principal of Summer Bay High, and like most women, she's struggling to balance work and her life with her children," the 38-year-old, who has appeared in Underbelly and Offspring, added.

    Digital Spy article:


    Home and Away reveals more gossip about new family

    The Astonis are heading to Summer Bay.

    Now that we know the Astoni family are heading to Summer Bay, we've got some more gossip about Home and Away's newest characters.

    The family-of-four includes Rohan Nichol as dad Ben Astoni and Kestie Morassi as mum Maggie, plus their two daughters Ziggy (played by Sophie Dillman) and her younger sister Coco (Anna Cocquerel).

    During an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, the family discover Summer Bay – and it might be the perfect place for teenage daughters Ziggy and Coco, who are struggling at school and in their personal lives.

    Coco has been bullied at high school, and suffers from self-doubt, while Ziggy is feisty and passionate, but rebellious'

    The girls' mother Maggie is a teacher and soon-to-be principal of Summer Bay High School, while her husband Ben is a struggling businessman.

    Home and Away producer Lucy Addario said: "Like any family, they each have a keenly attuned instinct for riling each other up, but no matter what obstacles are thrown at them, the family know they've got each other's back.

    "Ultimately grounded by their fierce familial love, with a healthy dose of playfulness and infectious optimism thrown in the mix, the Astonis settle into the Summer Bay community without incident…almost!"

    The Astoni family arrive in Summer Bay later this summer on UK screens.

    Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 in the UK, and Monday to Thursday at 7pm on Network Seven in Australia

    She even wears the dog collar thing that Ricky used to wear. You watch her suddenly become a surfer aswell.

    I have no idea who this new guy filming with Sophie Dillman is. Maybe Ziggy's old boyfriend from the city (who she stole a car with) will eventually come to see her in Summer Bay???


    SPOILER ALERT: Get ready to swoon! Summer Bay's newest hunky bad boy shares romantic scenes with co-star Sophie Dillman on Home and Away set.

    [Edit: I have seen it mentioned that the guy is Joel Davies playing the guest character 'Jarrod' - Ziggy's ex]

    Elsewhere in Summer Bay, the show's brand new family turn up and quickly make their presence felt.

    Home and Away is bringing in the four-strong Astoni clan, consisting of husband and wife Ben and Maggie and their two rebellious daughters Ziggy and Coco.

    The Astoni family arrive in the Bay after deciding to escape the hustle and bustle of their life in the city, where things haven't been going too well for them.

    The two girls are at the centre of most of the trouble, as Ziggy is facing serious allegations that she was involved in stealing a car, while Coco has just been suspended from school for online bullying.

    In despair over all of the problems, Maggie suggests taking a trip away to her mother's and they end up making a quick pit stop in Summer Bay to enjoy some family time on the beach.

    When the Astonis' car won't start afterwards, it's clear they'll have to stick around in Summer Bay for a little longer than planned. Is it fate?

    Home and Away's series producer Lucy Addario recently commented: "Like any family, they each have a keenly attuned instinct for riling each other up, but no matter what obstacles are thrown at them, the family know they've got each other's back.

    "Ultimately grounded by their fierce familial love, with a healthy dose of playfulness and infectious optimism thrown in the mix, The Astonis settle into the Summer Bay community without incident…almost!"
