    Digital Spy article with the new 2020 H&A promo I mentioned in the previous post (after the promo it mentioned that H&A would be back on Jan 27). The new family will be the Parata's:


    Home and Away teases new family for Summer Bay in 2020 trailer
    Say hi to the Parata family.


    https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hom...-2020-trailer/

    It's all cold and wet over here in Britain at the moment (no snow though), so let's have a look at what is going on in sunny old Australia.

    Home and Away is currently on a festive break, but when it returns in 2020 there will be a new family joining Summer Bay, so get ready to meet the Parata family.

    We've had a brief look at them in the 2020 teaser trailer, but now a new trailer has been revealed specifically focusing on the newbies.

    What can we glimpse from the trailer? Well, the family are moving to the Bay for a fresh start, and hoping the people will treat them differently than before, so obviously there is something in their past they are keen to bury (good luck there).

    The men of the family also like taking their tops off and running into the sea. We feel that many of you will appreciate that.

    "We feel so honoured to join the Home and Away family,"Ari Parata actor Rob Kipa-Williams said, "From extremely talented cast and crew to our incredible locations, Summer Bay is the place to be.

    "We can't wait for our UK fans to meet the Paratas in 2020 on Channel 5."

    Home and Away returns to Channel 5 on Monday, January 6 at 1.15pm and 6pm.

    Death, love and second chances: Every Home and Away spoiler you need to know in 2020
    There's never a dull moment in Summer Bay...


    https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebri...ers-2020-62021

    When Home And Away came to a close in 2019, several lives were in peril during the hospital siege − while outside, their loved ones were desperate to save them.

    Of course, there was also lots of heartache as relationships broke down and family members caused irreparable damage. For others, however, recent hardship led to reaffirming love.

    As the summer season rolls around for another year, the drama in Summer Bay will be dialled up to a scorching heatwave as the town grieves two tragic losses, and a wedding brings the community together.

    And that's just the beginning! In an exclusive preview, TV WEEK talks to Home And Away series producer Lucy Addario on what fans can expect, including the farewell that will break plenty of hearts.

    The Siege

    In the 2019 season finale of Home And Away, an ordinary day at Northern Districts Hospital turned into a hellish ordeal when four armed men stormed the ward and ordered everyone to the floor.

    Viewers quickly learnt that the Ouroboros gang had resurfaced and were hell-bent on terrorising the town. For Robbo (Jake Ryan), his worst fears were realised as the men targeted everyone he loves.

    "Just when Robbo dared to dream of a perfect life with Jasmine, baby Grace and Tori – and then the added hope of having a baby with Jasmine – the tables turn again," Lucy tells TV WEEK. "Robbo will stop at nothing to put the safety of his family first and bring the bad guys to justice."

    The white-knuckle episode saw several lives in jeopardy, including Jasmine (Sam Frost), Marilyn (Emily Symons), Alex (Zoë Ventoura), Mason (Orpheus Pledger), Tori (Penny McNamee), Robbo, Bella (Courtney Miller) and Mackenzie (Emily Weir).

    "Our idea for the finale episode was to create one dramatic event every cast member was involved in," Lucy explains. "With the help of our amazing cast, it was a season finale we will never forget."In the final agonising moments, the terror came to a crashing halt when a gun was fired – but who was shot?

    "Losing a fan favourite is always devastating – and, of course, the impact on loved ones left behind is heartwrenching," Lucy says. "But what I can say is that the performances in our season return are some of the best we have ever seen. Keep the tissues handy."

    Ben and Maggie

    It was a tough 2019 for Ben (Rohan Nichol) and Maggie (Kestie Morassi). They suffered in the wake of Maggie's cancer diagnosis and battled financial difficulties.

    After a tumultuous few months, Maggie's health was finally on the mend, but Ben was struggling mentally. With their marriage hanging by a thread, the pair will try to put the past behind them. But what if the past comes to them?

    "In 2020, Ben and Maggie are in a wonderful place and are able to put the hardship of Ben's depression behind them," Lucy says. "But something or someone from the past could unravel everything."

    Dean and Ziggy

    After Ziggy (Sophie Dillman) left Summer Bay to follow her dreams, Dean (Patrick O'Connor) was left heartbroken and alone. But during that time, Ziggy quickly realised Dean was her future.

    But as she returns home to win his heart, she's horrified to learn the River Boy is caught up in the siege.

    "Ziggy is desperate to reach Dean and fight for their relationship," Lucy says of the couple's future. "Time away from the Bay has made her realise that nothing is more important than her relationship with Dean."

    Will Ziggy lose Dean before she has a chance to tell him how she truly feels? And if she does, will he give her a second chance?

    Ryder and Jade

    This teenage tryst unravelled in the most volatile of ways when Jade (Mia Morrissey) framed Ryder (Lukas Radovich) for releasing their sex tape on the internet. Ryder pleaded his innocence, oblivious to the fact a tape even existed, but the evidence was too strong. He was arrested by police as his family and friends watched.

    "With the charges made against him, Ryder still has a battle to fight," Lucy explains. "But his family is there to support him through thick and thin. What Ryder didn't expect, however, is for Jade to sink her hooks into her next victim so soon!"

    Leah and Justin

    This unlikely pair surprised fans with a steamy kiss back in July, and despite trying to hide their fling, they both realised they wanted a lot more.

    But as happy endings go, it's not without hurdles. In the finale, Leah (Ada Nicodemou) received a mysterious phone call. Days later, she disappeared without a trace. Now, Justin (James Stewart) is desperately trying to find her.

    "Justin's strength is tested like never before," Lucy says. "He will be pushed to the brink trying to hold his family together, supporting his sister Tori as a new mother while also desperately looking for Leah."

    While her fate remains unknown, there's always the chance she'll return. But with two lives lost, the question everyone's asking is: Is Leah alive or dead?

    Saving Grace

    We can finally look forward to Tori enjoying motherhood and spending time with her baby girl. It's been such a journey getting to this point. Despite the drama that's unfolding in the Bay, one thing is for sure: Grace will be a source of joy and hope for everyone."

    AUST PACE!!


    7 Home and Away spoilers for the show's 2020 season
    High drama as the show returns for another year.


    https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hom...tterson-baker/

    Note: This article contains big spoilers about Home and Away's Australian-paced episodes, which some UK readers may prefer to avoid.

    Home and Away is now back on air for UK fans, but at home in Australia, the show remains on an extended break. The last episode to air Down Under screened at the end of November, featuring a dramatic siege storyline and the death of a main character.

    Home and Away returns to Channel 7 for its 2020 season on Monday, January 27. Here's our guide to the biggest storylines viewers can expect to see.

    1. Mason's death aftermath

    Home and Away aired a 90-minute season finale in Australia on November 27, which turned out to be the final appearance of sweet-natured junior doctor Mason Morgan. When the sinister Ouroboros gang made an unwelcome return and sparked a hostage situation at the hospital, a terrible chain of events followed – culminating in Mason's death.

    Mason's tragic ending is sure to have a major impact on his remaining family members Justin and Tori in early 2020. However, fans should also keep an eye on Robbo Shaw as he seeks justice against the troublesome gang once and for all. This is likely to include troublesome Scott, who was exposed as a traitor in the finale.

    Jake Ryan, who plays Robbo, told Inside Soap last year: "The season opener in Australia is going to be big – we have shot lots of stunts for it. I don't think people are going to see what's coming. It's really awesome!"

    Producer Lucy Addario also told TV Week: "Robbo will stop at nothing to put the safety of his family first and bring the bad guys to justice."

    2. A brand new Summer Bay family

    As teased in a recent promo trailer, Home and Away will welcome a new family to Summer Bay in 2020, the Paratas.

    Rob Kipa-Williams had joined the cast as newcomer Ari Parata, who made his first appearance in the 2019 season finale when he was a patient at the hospital and became caught up in the hostage situation.

    Ethan Browne and Kawakawa Fox-Reo have landed the roles of Ari's brother Tane and nephew Nikau respectively.

    The Parata family are coming to the Bay with a secret (who doesn't?) that they'd prefer to keep buried. We don't expect they'll have much luck with that one...

    3. Where's Leah?

    Home and Away launched one of its most baffling storylines on Australian screens late last year, as fan favourite Leah Patterson-Baker disappeared without a trace.

    The popular character was last seen taking a mysterious call on her mobile, from someone with no caller ID. Leah told the person on the other end: "Yeah, speaking. Who is this?"

    Leah's loved ones have heard nothing from her since, sparking concern for her safety. We know that Ada Nicodemou, who plays Leah, has since been spotted filming scenes on location again – so we can rule out a shock death. But as for the reason behind Leah's disappearing act, only time will tell.

    4. Another Summer Bay wedding

    It's not all doom and gloom in the Bay this year, as another couple will be tying the knot in the not-too-distant future. Home and Away first confirmed this storyline in October, when a brief synopsis was released showcasing the show's storyline plans for 2020.

    The show teased: "After a tragedy rocks the town, we will watch the community come together at the most unexpected wedding the Bay has ever seen to celebrate a precious second chance at love."

    5. Ben and Maggie face more trouble

    Home and Away's producer Lucy Addario recently tipped Ben and Maggie Astoni as two characters to keep an eye on this year. The couple have already faced an emotional few months due to Ben's struggles with depression. However, with Ben's life now back on track, another hurdle seems to be just around the corner.

    "In 2020, Ben and Maggie are in a wonderful place and are able to put the hardship of Ben's depression behind them," Addario told TV Week. "But something or someone from the past could unravel everything."

    6. Ryder's shock as Jade strikes again


    Home and Away's Australian fans have recently seen Ryder enter into a troublesome relationship with newcomer Jade Lennox, played by Mia Morrissey.

    Although Ryder initially liked the backpacker's fun-loving attitude and carefree ways, things turned sour when she uploaded a sex tape to the internet, showing them together. With Ryder framed for the shocking act, he was facing big trouble as 2019 came to a close.

    Addario recently teased the future of this storyline by telling TV Week: "With the charges made against him, Ryder still has a battle to fight.

    "But his family is there to support him through thick and thin. What Ryder didn't expect, however, is for Jade to sink her hooks into her next victim so soon!"

    7. Dean and Ziggy's future is revealed

    Lucy Addario has also teased that Dean and Ziggy are central to the early episodes of the new season. The couple faced a tough time at the end of 2019 when Ziggy's new job caused trouble for their relationship, but she has since realised that she wants to be with him.

    Dean's involvement in the hospital siege is currently standing in Ziggy's way – will everything be okay, or could there be another tragedy?

    "Ziggy is desperate to reach Dean and fight for their relationship," Addario told TV Week. "Time away from the Bay has made her realise that nothing is more important than her relationship with Dean."

    Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK). The show returns to Channel 7 in Australia on Monday, January 27.

    I think the wedding will be Alf and Martha too, since it says precious second chance at love. I've lost count of how many it's been for Leah now lol.

    Anyone else think the trouble for Ben and Maggie will be a long-lost kid of Ben's? I mean, they live in the farmhouse and that place has a track record for that - Sasha and Denny - and I wouldn't put it past H&A to repeat it again.

    Digital Spy article:


    Home and Away halts filming due to coronavirus pandemic
    All cast and crew are healthy.


    https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hom...g-coronavirus/

    Home and Away has packed up production over coronavirus fears.

    The pandemic has swept across the entertainment industry and halted many productions over the last few weeks, but it seemed Home and Away was to carry on filming throughout the crisis... until now.

    Via TV Tonight, a Seven Studios spokesperson confirmed today (March 22): "Seven Studios advised today that it would halt filming of Home and Away immediately.

    "It confirmed that no cast or crew had tested positive for COVID-19, but that the decision was made due to the increasing logistical hurdles related to the COVID-19 situation."

    A large portion of the Australian soap is shot at Seven's Eveleigh headquarters and Palm Beach in Sydney, but luckily for avid viewers, Home and Away episodes are made around five to six months ahead of broadcast.

    This means the coronavirus shouldn't impact the storylines much, if at all.

    Digital Spy has reached out for comment.

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

    UPDATE:

    Following the previous post, Channel 7 has now announced that H&A has been removed from Australian TV schedules for at least the next 2 weeks (to make way for 7 News show ‘The Latest’ from 7-8pm).

    H&A is currently due to return (in Aust) on Monday 6th April. There is no word yet on how this will affect the UK broadcasts on CH5.


    And now:
