Luke Mitchell has revealed that Romeo Smith makes a shocking turn to drugs after injuring his knee in a surfing accident.

Romeo has been involved in an intense love triangle over the past few weeks, with feelings over his ex Indigo Walker (Samara Weaving) resurfacing just as she begins a new relationship with Liam (Axle Whitehead).

In an attempt to distract himself from his love life woes, he has thrown himself back into surfing - only to suffer the recurrence of a serious knee injury.

Speaking to TV Week, Mitchell said that when friend Alf (Ray Meagher) learns of the injury he attempts to get Romeo to go to the hospital, without success: "Romeo knows what the doctors are going to say and he doesn't want to hear it. It feels like he's losing part of his identity if he can't surf.

"At this point he feels like he's lost everything and surfing was the only thing that was keeping him going."

Mitchell then revealed Romeo decides to search online for a quick fix for his injury, and stumbles upon steroid use. He approaches bad boy Heath about supplying him with the drugs.

Mitchell said: "I think Heath is pretty surprised to see Romeo, the golden boy, talking to him about drugs, and is a bit apprehensive. But in the end, it doesn't take much to persuade Heath!"

The 27-year-old then hinted that fans may be surprised at the dark turn Romeo's character will be taking, saying: "You get to see a really different side of Romeo, and the steroid use affects him. He becomes a zombie, because he's taking them."

Home and Away airs these scenes next week on Network Seven in Australia and in November on Channel 5 in the UK.

Home and Away's Dan Ewing has revealed that his character Heath is facing a tough time proving to Bianca that he is to be trusted with new baby Rocco.

In scenes currently airing in Australia, baby Rocco has finally been released from hospital after being kept in for observation following his premature birth, and the pair are adjusting to life as new parents.

The actor told TV Week that Bianca remains concerned over Heath's abilities as a parent, something that Ewing thinks is understandable: "Heath is a bit of a boofhead, so it's not strange that she should be worried... but Heath is obviously in love with his son and would do anything for him."

Ewing revealed that, due to a few niggling doubts in her mind, Bianca (Lisa Gormley) persuades Irene (Lynne McGranger) to also be with Rocco at the house, so Heath is not left alone with him.

This upsets Heath and he confronts Bianca about her lack of faith in his parenting ability. Ewing said: "She apologises and Heath is pretty receptive to the apology, and there's a bit of back and forth."

Bianca then agrees to leave the two alone, but Ewing hints that her fears may soon be justified, as he reveals Rocco ends up back in the hospital: "Heath packs up his bag and takes Rocco to the hospital, but doesn't think to tell Bianca.

"He just wants to be left to look after his own kid, and that creates tension."

Australian viewers will see the storyline next week on Channel Seven, while the episodes will air on Channel 5 in November.

Steve Peacocke has revealed that Brax and Casey will embark on a fateful camping trip together in an attempt to clear Casey's head.

After they have spent the night together, Casey (Lincoln Younes) begins acting distant towards Sasha, which leads to him receiving some angry words from Sasha's sister Indi (Samara Weaving) and her dad Sid (Robert Mammone).

Lincoln Younes told TV Week: "She feels humiliated and rejected because he just drops her off at home and brushes her off."

"Casey isn't in a very good place emotionally," he added.

After Brax (Peacocke) hears the confrontation between Sid and Casey, he takes him on a trip to the Outback in an attempt to take his mind off things, with Peacocke noting: "The [Braxton] family is in turmoil and Brax has been left to clean up again."

However, unbeknownst to the Braxton boys Kyle, a mystery man who has been following members of the Braxton clan for weeks, has tailed them out into the woods and is watching their every move.

Casey eventually pours his heart out to Brax, and the pair decide soon after to head home. However, just as they are packing up to leave, something happens that will rock the Braxton clan to its foundations.

The scenes will be seen by Australian viewers on Channel Seven next week, and by UK viewers on Channel 5 in November.

Is Kyle their other brother?

Is Heath surprised?
