Martha Stewart (Belinda Giblin)
Home and Away airs a life-changing moment for Alf Stewart next month as his first wife Martha comes back from the dead.
Alf (Ray Meagher) recently shocked his daughter Roo by revealing that Martha didn't really die in a boating accident in the '80s – a secret that he'd kept from her for many years.
Scenes airing on Channel 5 in May see Roo (Georgie Parker) return from a trip to find clues on Martha's whereabouts.
Roo is disappointed to report that the mission didn't throw up any new leads, so she's decided to put the search on the backburner for the time being.

Finally making peace with Alf and moving back home, Roo suggests that if it's meant to be, she will meet Martha one day.
Roo's words prove to be surprisingly prophetic, as Martha (Belinda Giblin) pops up just two days later – much to everyone's surprise.
After spending the afternoon playing basketball with his girlfriend Coco and their friend Raffy, Ryder Jackson notices that a mysterious woman has been hanging around the house.
When Ryder points out the new arrival to Alf, the Summer Bay legend is stunned to see that it's Martha. What has brought her back to the Stewarts' lives after all these years?
Prior to the recent revelation, Martha was thought to have died in a boating accident in 1985, three years before Home and Away's first episode. She appeared briefly in the show in flashback scenes in 1989.
