    Home and Away lines up big injury scare for Colby Thorne after Leah twist
    Will he be okay?


    https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hom...orne-stabbing/

    Note: This article contains Home and Away spoilers from Australian-pace episodes, which some UK readers may prefer to avoid.


    Home and Away policeman Colby Thorne is facing a potentially life-changing injury after taking on Leah Patterson-Baker's kidnapper.

    Colby (Tim Franklin) was drawn into the conclusion of Leah's storyline in dramatic scenes on Channel 7 in Australia today (February 27).

    Viewers have been left horrified after discovering that Leah (Ada Nicodemou) has spent the past few weeks being held captive by a sinister man called Douglas, who terrorised her into carrying out his every instruction.

    Leah's ordeal only came to an end when she attacked Douglas and thankfully managed to make an escape, being reunited with Justin Morgan (James Stewart) and ultimately returning home to Summer Bay.

    As a traumatised Leah spread the word over her violent kidnapper, Colby and a team of his police colleagues swarmed on the remote house that had become her prison.

    There was initially no sign of Douglas, until he suddenly emerged from his hiding place and stabbed Colby in the leg with a knife.

    A new Home and Away trailer on air in Australia has suggested that the attack on Colby could have major repercussions.

    New footage shows doctor Alex Neilson (Zoe Ventoura) breaking the news to Colby's loved ones that he could potentially lose his leg if further complications develop.

    Colby's sister Bella Nixon, best friend Dean Thompson and love interest Mackenzie Booth are all shocked to hear the news, hoping it won't come to that. What will the outcome be for Colby?

    Home and Away fans in the UK will see these scenes in April on Channel 5.

    Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 (Australia).

    Life or Limb: Alex makes a risky decision to save Colby

    After being attacked by Leah's stalker while trying to rescue her, police officer Colby is fighting for his life in hospital.

    While Colby (Tim Franklin) was arresting deranged stalker Douglas (Adam Booth) in recent episodes, he leapt from a closet and stabbed him in the leg with a pair of scissors.

    This week, Justin (James Stewart) rushes his friend to the emergency room. Colby's in agony as Alex (Zoƫ Ventoura) assesses the wound.

    When Bella and Dean (Patrick O'Connor) arrive, the doctor delivers her diagnosis: Colby has acute compartment syndrome – when pressure builds dangerously in the muscles after a trauma – and requires urgent surgery.

    Bella and Dean wait anxiously as Alex gets to work. Colby's condition has deteriorated rapidly, causing the tissue and nerves in his leg to fail.

    Alex is forced to make a snap decision to save Colby's leg. Trembling, she calls for assistance and does her utmost to keep her patient alive.

    Has she made the right call?

    A buried body on Home & Away this week is set to leave fans in shock
    Hidden among sprawling bushland and debris on the outskirts of Summer Bay lies a shallow grave.

    https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebri...and-away-64790

    In special upcoming episodes of Home And Away, a body will be unearthed, sending shockwaves through the town.

    For policeman Colby (Tim Franklin), it's the phone call he never wanted to receive, but has been expecting for months.

    Earlier in the year, Colby saved his young sister Bella (Courtney Miller) and his then-fianc?e Chelsea (Ashleigh Brewer) from the clutches of his evil stepfather Ross (Justin Rosniak).

    Colby's dogged attempts to stop the reign of terror over his family ended up in a deadly car chase with Dean (Patrick O'Connor) by his side.

    Once they had Ross in their sights, Colby's rage took over and, in the heat of the moment, he shot and killed him.

    The former River Boys quietly buried Ross and, along with Bella, swore never to speak of it again. Unfortunately, secrets never stay buried for long?

    During a reunion night with former River Boys crew member Amber (Maddy Jevic), Colby is informed by his sergeant that Ross' body has been found.

    "It's the phone call he's been dreading, but he's quick to cover his guilt with concern for Bella. But underneath, his mind has gone into overdrive," Tim, 29, tells TV WEEK.

    He cuts the night short and races to find Dean, Bella and Willow (Sarah Roberts). As the foursome try to decide what to do next, Bella begins to panic and urges everyone to leave town.

    Colby knows this will only draw suspicion and promises to monitor the situation at the police station.

    "Colby isn't new to the inner workings of a murder case and knows running would solidify their guilt," Tim explains. "The closer he is to the case, the more likely he is to stay one step ahead of it.

    As days pass, fear mounts among the group. Dean and Colby fracture as the investigation begins, while Ziggy (Sophie Dillman) can sense her boyfriend is hiding something.

    Bella grows increasingly unsteady as the pressure mounts. But if she cracks, her brother will go to jail. Is this the beginning of the end for Colby?

    Home and Away ? who was Ross Nixon and why did Colby Thorne kill him?
    The big story is being revisited.

    https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hom...thorne-murder/

    Home and Away spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.

    Home and Away is revisiting its biggest unresolved storyline ? the murder of Ross Nixon.

    Scenes airing in Australia this week have seen Colby Thorne and his sister Bella left shocked by the news that Ross's body has been found, which now threatens to turn their lives upside-down.

    Ross made his last appearance on Home and Away in February 2019, so you'd be forgiven for forgetting the finer details of his storyline. Here's a quick reminder of his death storyline, and why Colby could now be in big trouble.

    Who was Ross Nixon?

    Ross, played by Justin Rosniak, was Bella's father and Colby's stepfather. He appeared on Home and Away for a handful of episodes between November 2018 and February 2019, but had first been mentioned on screen months earlier.

    When Colby joined Home and Away at the start of 2018, his backstory began to unravel and viewers soon learned about Ross's evil ways.

    At the time, Colby was searching for his missing sister Bella, who'd been abducted by Ross several years prior. The unsolved mystery was the reason that Colby had joined the police force in the first place, believing that his position would improve his chances of tracking Bella down one day.

    Ross originally disappeared with Bella and her mum Michelle. Michelle later came up with a plan for her and Bella to escape from his clutches, but Ross murdered her when he discovered what she had in mind.

    Ross had also previously murdered Colby's father Andrew. As Colby learned more about Ross's villainous actions, his desire to bring him to justice was understandably strengthened further.

    In late 2018, Colby finally had some success when he managed to find out Bella and Ross's location. He teamed up with his best friend Dean Thompson to rescue Bella, kidnapping the troubled teenager to get her away from Ross once and for all.

    Why did Colby Thorne kill Ross Nixon?

    After snatching Bella, Colby had a tough task on his hands to gain her trust and undo years of brainwashing from Ross. Bella had been raised to be distrustful by Ross, who'd taken particular effort to blacken Colby's name whenever he was mentioned.

    In 2018's season finale episode of Home and Away, Ross exacted a revenge plan to make Colby pay for taking Bella away from him. On the day of Colby's wedding to Chelsea Campbell, Ross kidnapped Chelsea, Bella and Willow Harris ? three of the closest people to Colby.

    When Home and Away returned with a new season in 2019, Colby rushed off to rescue Chelsea, Bella and Willow in the bush. Ross wanted Colby to choose between the three captives, and the tense showdown that followed saw Willow take a bullet when things spiralled badly out of control.

    Colby and Dean managed to turn the tables on Ross by pursuing him in a high-stakes car chase. When they cornered Ross in a remote location, they had the chance to let the authorities deal with him by calling the police.

    Taking no chances, Colby took a more ruthless approach to get Ross out of his and Bella's lives forever. Much to Dean's shock, Colby pulled out his gun and shot Ross dead.

    In the aftermath, Colby and Dean embarked on a cover-up by burning Ross's car and burying his body in a shallow grave in some bushland.

    Who knows that Colby killed Ross?

    After helping with the cover-up, Dean has shared the burden of Colby's killer secret for well over a year now. This has occasionally caused problems for the pair's usually rock-solid friendship, but Dean has loyally kept Colby's guilt to himself.

    Willow Harris is also aware of the truth, but shares the same loyalty towards Colby due to their long friendship and has also kept quiet.

    Colby's killer secret led to the breakdown of his marriage to Chelsea, as she was unable to stand by him when he confessed his dark secret to her. She left Summer Bay at the start of 2019.

    In April 2019, Colby made the risky decision to reveal his crime to Bella too.

    Although Bella has been part of the cover-up, the stress of the situation has occasionally taken its toll on her mental health. She found it particularly difficult when Colby wanted her to go to counselling to address some of her issues, knowing that she couldn't be completely honest without implicating him.

    Home and Away spoilers ? what happens next now Ross's body has been found?

    The discovery of Ross's body will now spark a big new storyline for Home and Away, as Colby and Bella are drawn into the police investigation. Dean and Willow are also sure to feel the pressure of keeping the truth under wraps.

    Home and Away bosses have also confirmed that police detective Angelo Rosetta, who was last seen in the Bay in 2011, will be returning to the show as part of the investigation.

    Luke Jacobz, who plays Angelo, recently told TV Tonight: "He's got a lot of hunches, some things that he thinks he can follow up.

    "But unfortunately a group of people try to put Angelo off the scent. Some of them try to protect each other, so it's not an open and shut case for Angelo. They don't make his job easy at all."

    Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 (Australia).

    Flirting with danger! Home And Away?s Colby will do whatever it takes to find Bella
    Starting with Angelo's wife Taylor!

    https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebri...r-angelo-65020

    For a man on the brink of losing his career and freedom, manipulating those around him might seem a risky move. Yet Colby will do whatever it takes to keep himself and his sister out of jail.

    This week, the policeman finds a way to keep on top of the murder investigation when he meets detective Angelo's (Luke Jacobz) wife.

    On the beach, Colby (Tim Franklin) is questioned, once again, by Angelo, who has given his sister Bella (Courtney Miller) a deadline: if she doesn't complete her police interview in the next 72 hours, he'll issue a warrant for her arrest.

    In recent episodes, the teen fled Summer Bay with boyfriend Nikau (Kawakawa Fox-Reo). She was worried she would botch her interview and put Colby at risk ? who, as viewers are aware, is guilty of shooting dead his abusive stepfather Ross (Justin Wozniak).

    "Bella is in constant doubt of her ability to lie and get away with it," Tim, 29, tells TV WEEK. "She thinks leaving is the best option, but it only spikes Angelo's interest in her involvement in the case. Colby's concern is to keep Angelo busy until Bella surfaces."

    But in the rugged Australian landscape, the couple are lost and panicking. Hot on their trail is Ari (Rob Kipa-Williams), Tane (Ethan Browne) and Mackenzie (Emily Weir), who are desperate for their safe return.

    Running out of time and daylight, Nikau convinces Bella to find help. He leaves her momentarily and flags down the nearest car ? which just so happens to be Ari, Tane and Mac. Giving in to their demands to get in, he takes them to Bella ? who has packed up and fled.

    Where has she gone?

    Back in Summer Bay, Colby learns of his sister's latest escape.

    As he thinks what to do next, an attractive woman walks into the Diner and says she's looking for Angelo. She's his wife, Taylor (Annabelle Stephenson).

    Suddenly, Colby has a new plan. Striding up to Taylor, Colby uses all his charm to introduce himself as a colleague. Then, he pries into her life.

    "Taylor is a massage physiotherapist and has followed Angelo to Summer Bay in the hope of setting up a new, quiet life where they can concentrate on their marriage and start fresh," Annabelle, 32, explains.

    The cop's mind ticks over as he contemplates what to do next. Be careful, Colby!

    BUSTED! Home And Away?s Colby and Taylor are caught out as their steamy affair heats up
    ''She?s finally feeling the way a woman in love should.''

    https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebri...ir-bella-65376

    What started as a brief fling has turned into a reckless romance on Home and Away between Colby and Taylor. And this week, Bella goes to extreme lengths to stop her brother before it's too late?

    But will Angelo (Luke Jacobz) find out first? The focused detective has been looking for ways to pin the murder of Ross (Justin Wozniak) on policeman Colby (Tim Franklin) ever since he arrived in Summer Bay.

    At the same time, Colby has been doing his own police work to ensure his family don't become suspects. Unfortunately, his solution was to seduce Angelo's wife Taylor (Annabelle Stephenson). Now, the couple are hiding their liaisons with illicit hook-ups at the nearby motel.

    While Colby is simply using Taylor to extract information about the case, she's drawn to his attentiveness ? something lacking in her marriage.

    "Taylor has worked on her marriage with Angelo for years. However, no matter how hard she tries, he's fully dedicated to the case and fails to give her what she needs," Annabelle tells TV WEEK.

    "When Colby comes into her life, she's vulnerable and he provides that company and comfort she's needed from her husband all these years."

    But how will Taylor react if she discovers Colby's motives?

    The following day, Taylor is shocked to learn Willow (Sarah Roberts), Dean (Patrick O'Connor) and Bella (Courtney Miller) all know what she's been up to.

    While Colby downplays his fallout with his sister and friends, the recent bust-up between him and Dean is enough to sow doubt in Taylor's mind.

    "Dean is beginning to think Colby is only looking out for himself," Patrick, 28, tells TV WEEK. "Resentment begins to build between them."

    Taylor resolves to end the affair.

    But surprisingly, Colby begs her not to. Despite planning to use her to elicit information, he's grown to have feelings for her. Taylor hesitates, but knows her marriage is over?

    "Taylor does feel remorse," Annabelle explains. "However, when she sees Angelo isn't focused on repairing their marriage and that Colby appreciates her, she's finally feeling the way a woman in love should, and embraces it."

    Colby then tells Bella and Willow the relationship is over? before meeting Taylor for another night of passion.

    What Colby doesn't realise is that Bella can see through her brother's lies. When she follows the pair to the beach, she sees them kissing and captures their tryst on camera.

    A few days later, she corners Taylor, reveals the incriminating evidence and warns her to back off. Will her threats be enough to end the steamy affair?

    Home And Away beach BRAWL! Tensions between Colby and Angelo are about to reach breaking point
    ''Angelo goes into hunting mode.''

    https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebri...lo-fight-65465

    On the surface, Colby and Angelo have remained cordial and accommodating toward each other as the murder investigation unfolds. But this week on Home And Away, the simmering tension between them finally erupts in a vicious brawl on the beach!

    The action begins when Angelo (Luke Jacobz) ramps up his police tactics. The detective has long suspected Colby (Tim Franklin) is guilty of murdering his stepfather, Ross (Justin Wozniak).

    But proving it has been far more difficult than he expected. Particularly when, unbeknown to him, Colby is sleeping with his wife Taylor (Annabelle Stephenson) in order to stay one step ahead of the case!

    Now, Angelo ramps up his efforts to put Colby behind bars.

    "Angelo goes into hunting mode, he focuses on getting the job done," Luke, 39, tells TV WEEK. "He knows Colby is a River Boy, so that puts him on his bad side straight away. He pushes aside everything else in his life for the case."

    Desperate for clues, Angelo takes to eavesdropping on private conversations. He quickly learns Dean (Patrick O'Connor) has been absent from the surfboard shop and that his personal life is in turmoil.

    He uses the information to put pressure on him and his ex-girlfriend Ziggy (Sophie Dillman). Neither divulges any information, but the conversation is enough to rattle them. Dean, angry and tired, lashes out at Colby.

    "While they've been the closest of mates for a long time, Dean feels that Colby isn't considering his situation at all," Patrick tells TV WEEK.

    The following day, Colby takes action to get Angelo off their tails once and for all. He finds an old newspaper article that blames Angelo for bungling a former investigation. He asks Taylor about it, who adds that the story almost ruined his career. Satisfied, Colby files a harassment complaint with the police. That should do the trick!

    Naturally, this doesn't sit well with the police force, and when Angelo is informed of the allegations, he hunts down Colby, the pair coming to blows in an angry confrontation at the beach.

    Dean, Willow (Sarah Roberts) and Taylor try to restrain the warring police officers as locals stare aghast. Seething, Angelo quickly gathers himself? but not before vowing to bring them all to justice.

    Watch your back, Colby ? literally!

    But Angelo also killed another cop years ago. So there's many layers of hypocrisy on both sides.
