Home and Away star Steve Peacocke has praised his dramatic exit storyline.
Australian viewers will see Peacocke's character Brax presumed dead in explosive scenes next week, after his prison escape plan goes drastically wrong and culminates in a car accident.
Speaking about the plot on Sunrise, the actor said: "The good thing about Brax as a character is that I got a lot of exciting storylines.
"It was mainly trying to finish up with something that was bigger and better than what we had done and I think we did it. That was a good, fun day crashing that car - not that I was personally in it.
"It was a top bookend to the whole saga that has been the Braxtons and Brax, my character."
Peacocke is currently in London filming for the new movie Me Before You, which will see him play a nurse called Nathan.

Brax in Home and Away
Speaking about the role, he said: "It's an interesting story and I am playing a nurse so it is a bit different to the way the fans of Brax and Home and Away will be used to seeing me!
"I always wanted to do films - most actors want to do that. I was fortunate to land Home and Away a few years ago, which is the best job I have ever had up until this point.
"This is always the progression I wanted to take. As much as I was sad to leave the show when I did, it was a good time. I have been lucky so far. This is my second film and I have worked with some incredible people. It's where I want to be."
So, if he is presumed dead, would that mean that he has the opportunity to return? **OR** Is it a show for everyone and he's off to custody? Under another name? I'm just surprised they're letting him exit this way...
Over on Home and Away, fans will see Brax's final scenes air following an explosive car accident.
After his prison escape plan goes drastically wrong and culminates in the incident, Brax (Steve Peacocke) is eventually presumed dead after he fails to rise from the water.
Ash (George Mason) takes the news particularly badly as he, along with a team of divers, desperately search for Brax, but to no avail.

However, as a devastated Ricky is given the news, Ash heads to the safe house where he comes face-to-face with Brax, who has actually survived the accident.
As Ash explains to him that everyone thinks he is dead, Brax reveals his plans to fake his own death in order to keep Ricky and his baby son Casey safe from dangerous Gunno.
Despite reservations from Ash, Brax is determined to follow through with his decision and says his goodbyes to Ash before heading out of Summer Bay forever. With Ricky believing that Brax has died, how will she cope in the wake of his exit?
Home and Away airs these scenes on Tuesday, August 4 and Wednesday, August 5 at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5.
Well, well, well!! & article in today's Sunday Telegraph. The online version has the headline "Home and Away star Steve Peacocke brings Brax back for one-off", while the hardcopy newspaper has the headline "Brax is back in the Bay but this is the last time". As Dazzle has suggested previously, I thought maybe that he may have shot a few extra scenes last Dec before he left for overseas, but the caption under the photo of him in the newspaper version says "Steve Peacocke in Sydney last week to shoot a top secret storyline for Home and Away", so these must be new scenes (or is that just a fib & he did really shoot the scenes a while ago? - I wouldn't put it past them!). Is he back for Ricky's exit storyline? or maybe to help Kyle out? does he clear his name? Could be a number of possibilities. It says his scenes will be on air later this year, but I think they have already filmed the season finale, so maybe it will be early next year, or have they just filmed things out of order because this is the only time Steve was available?

STEVE Peacocke always planned on returning to Summer Bay — he just didn’t know it was going to be this soon.
“It was a good story the producers put to me, so I thought it is a nice way to see everyone for a bit.”
Peacocke was nominated for a Gold Logie this year for his more than four years playing River boy Darryl “Brax” Braxton in the TV drama.
“The show has been so good to me in terms of launching my career, so it is just something I always wanted to do — if there was any way I could be a part of something in the future,” Peacocke explained.
“It will be an interesting *little twist. While Brax is in the Bay it will spice things up a bit, I think.”
Peacocke’s storyline is top secret and won’t be revealed until his episodes go to air later this year.After packing up his Sydney home and making his move to Hollywood earlier this year, the popular actor is back on set of Home and Away shooting top-secret episodes.
“It is a nice little surprise,” 33-year-old Peacocke told The Sunday Telegraph.
When pushed on the storyline and asked if Brax will be killed off, he said: “I can’t say anything about what is going to happen, but it is something the audience is going to love, which is part of why I thought it would be a nice book end.
“It is a cool story and it’s going to pack a punch.”
Peacocke and his actor wife Bridgette Sneddon moved to the US earlier this year and Peacocke has since worked on two back-to-back films.
The first, Fun House, will see him share the big screen with Tina Fey, Billy Bob Thornton, Margot Robbie and Martin Freeman.

Just a couple of months after leaving the Bay, Steve Peacocke has revealed that his character Brax is returning for a top-secret storyline.
The actor, who has been spotted filming scenes on the Home and Away set, told The Sunday Telegraph that Brax's return will "spice things up a bit".

Viewers of the soap will know that Brax's attempt to escape from prison saw the character presumed dead for many residents of the Bay, while only Ash and his sister Billie know that Brax actually lived and decided to bow out of Summer Bay of his own accord.
"It will be an interesting *little twist," Peacocke shared of his return. "While Brax is in the Bay it will spice things up a bit, I think.

Since leaving the soap, he has finished shooting two films, including starring alongside Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin in Me Before You.

He made his first appearance on Home and Away in 2011.

When I recently said on another thread I thought Steve Peacocke would be open to returning for an episode or two, I didn't think it'd happen this quickly! :eek:
As he says this is the last time he'll appear as Brax, it sounds like the Brax/Ricky relationship will be wrapped up once and for all. I wonder if he'll die for real this time? (I hope not because that would be too cruel on Ricky and Kyle.)
does kyle need a kidney from a sibling as he is sick maybe that is why brax returns perhaps heath wont give any
With regard to Kyle, this is from Aust pace so, SPOILER ALERT!!! & please don't read if you don't want to know in advance:
It turns out Kyle is allergic to the dialysis, so he needs a transplant urgently or he will die. Heath Is not a match, but Brax is!, but they tell the doctor he is dead, so Ricky & Ash are tested as well - Ricky is not a match, but Ash is & he agrees to do it (& it looks like he will use this as the reason not to tell Ricky that Brax is still alive). That is where Aust is up to as at last Friday.
This would have all been filmed a while ago of course, so I don't know if these new scenes being filmed now are to do with Brax donating his kidney (this time!), as the current storyline implies that if the transplant is not done almost immediately, Kyle will die - so I imagine it will have to be Ash doing the donating! A thought, what if Kyle's body rejects Ash's kidney (lol!) a bit further down the track, & Brax has to come to the rescue?
it seems pretty certain that Brax's return will be to "book-end" (as Steve puts it) his story on the show, but like you Dazzle, many people are asking whether he will also make an appearance on the special Presto episode - nothing is being confirmed or denied!
I found this on a spoiler site - original article from Woman's Day Magazine. Pictures of Steve/Brax filming his "secret storyline". Hopefully you can scroll thru the pictures (there is an arrow right to click) & read the captions below each one, most of which are behind the camera type shots - but there are a couple which suggest that he & Ricky re-unite (& drive off into the sunset??). Although officially they are saying that he will return later this year, from the timing of the filming I wonder if it will just be a glimpse of him in the final episode(s) this year (Aust), & the actual storyline won't happen till early next year.
http://www.womansday.com.au/entertai...pr=12181160772
I hate the way Steve Peacocke's being made out to be the saviour of Home and Away. I'm highly dubious the show's ratings are down just because Brax is gone, but, even if that's true, a handful of episodes featuring Brax will do nothing in the long term to save H&A.
I agree Dazzle. Although many Braxton Clan fans would argue otherwise, IMO there are definitely other reasons why the shows ratings are down, as has been discussed previously on this forum (the overall writing, storylines, character development, continuity etc etc). Just on ratings, I read yesterday that the Ed Sheeran appearance last Thurs didn't do anything to bump up the ratings either (especially given how hard they plugged/advertised it), in fact the ratings were down (under 700k) for that night, even compared to the previous Thurs' double episode - giving more fuel to the possible rumoured move to channel 7two. This latest Woman's Day article/pictures may be perceived as possibly being a bit desperate - I assume it was sanctioned by the Producers/Channel 7? Like I mentioned previously, the official announcements have been that Brax will be on air "later this year", but the timing of filming suggests the storyline won't be till next year (one spoiler site is saying Feb 16). Will there be just glimpses of him lurking behind a tree, or something similar, late this season, so they can't be accused of lying about him being on air this year? Why release this article/pictures now? - are they just trying to keep the Brax fans interested for the rest of the year? Like you say Dazzle, just having him back for a few episodes won't help the show long term. Judging by comments I have seen on some Fan Sites, there seems to be quite a few people out there who still think that Brax is actually coming back for good - how angry will they be when they realise he will only be there for a short while!!
I'm of the firm opinion that Brax and the other Braxtons have done more damage to the show than not. Ever since they come onto Home & Away, the writers and producers have focussed so much on them and Brax in particular that they haven't put as much effort into other storylines and characters in the same way, and now they're gone they've found that they're floundering and the show is in a rut, I think. They've alienated viewers who weren't interested / didn't like the Braxton's and they're criminal lifestyle and the writers seem to be clinging desperately to Brax and his fan-base and seem to be under the illusion that he's the be all and end all of the show.
(I "unliked" the H&A official facebook page years ago when they kept posting things such as "Brax is our super-hero, why is he yours?")
I've heard the rumours too that Ricky will leave with Brax when he comes back, and I agree that it's a ready-made exit story for her, but Heath was the brother who got to leave with his wife and kids, so it'd feel too similar if Brax got that ending too.
just a thought but i remember reading a few weeks back someone posting something about tessa (or whoever played Billie) being back on set or whatever and since *spoilers*Denny is dying*end spoilers* that means the only one who knows about Brax still being alive are now Billie and Ash and /if/ Billie /is/ coming back, maybe she is part of the reason since Brax is coming back, because Steve has been filming recently and Billie may be back, it could be she comes back to get closure or whatever with her past and she starts by saying that Brax is alive idk do u get wat i am trying 2 say here??
TL;DR if Billie really is back since her and Brax seem to be filming within a month of each other it's possible she reveals Brax is alive when she comes back ok bye

Just my opinion, but I think it would be cool to have when Brax comes back for the episode or two, that he sees Nate and Ricky together so he leaves them be. Ridiculously sad, but I think that's one of the only ways they could put him into only ONE episode... thoughts?
Yes could well happen like that and that's what happened with Leah and Vinnie
Home and Away has released an exciting new promo in the build-up to Brax's explosive return.
https://au.tv.yahoo.com/home-and-awa.../he-is-alive-/
It was announced last month that Steve Peacocke would be reprising his role as Brax for a top-secret storyline.
Viewers of the soap will know that Brax's attempt to escape from prison saw the character presumed dead for many residents of the Bay, while only Ash and his sister Billie know that Brax actually lived and decided to bow out of Summer Bay of his own accord.
The details surrounding Brax's return are still under wraps, but the promo shows newcomer Trystan telling Charlotte King that he believes the eldest Braxton brother is still alive.
Meanwhile, Ash can be seen sending a frantic message to his friend saying that they need to talk.
Peacocke has hinted that Brax's return will "spice things up a bit" and fans will undoubtedly be eager to see how he reacts to the news that his former girlfriend Ricky Sharpe has moved on with doctor Nate Cooper.
Trouble is never far behind Home and Away favourite Brax, and he is about to be involved in a storyline that hasn't been done on the show before.
Fans thought they had seen the last of the oldest Braxton brother when he faked his own death earlier this year, but Steve Peacocke has reprised his role for a "very significant" new plot.
Speaking to Yahoo Australia about Brax's return, Peacocke said: "Next year, there is a pretty significant storyline.
"You might call it the finale to Brax but I think the audience are really going to enjoy it. If I was an audience member, that storyline is something I would want to see.
http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/15/28/...s-his-baby.jpg

"It is something that has never been done in the 27 years of the show. The producers put that to me and I went, 'Yeah right! What hasn't been done?' But I read it and it hasn't!
"It was good fun to do. It is not some big explosion or anything. It's just a really cool episode."
Brax was last seen on screen earlier this year when his attempt to escape from prison culminated in a car crash which left the majority of Summer Bay residents presuming he was dead.
Australian viewers recently saw Brax make an appearance at the end of the season's finale episode, but his return storyline will pick up next year. :cheer:
Sounds intriguing. Steve says "it's just a really cool episode", so does that mean Brax only returns for one episode?
Bit ambiguous ... could be that whatever has not been done before happens in "one cool episode" but he might still be around for a bit afterwards ... which would be nice :D:thumbsup: Although as he is off to Hollywood I don't think he will be around for long even if it is for more than one episode
No, he won't be back for long either way. You'd better make the most of him! :heart: http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...vil-695223.gif

I miss him but wish him all the best :D
Home and Away is lining up a two-hander for the first time in the show's history.
An entire episode will be based around Ricky Sharpe and Brax following his return to Summer Bay.
Viewers saw Brax (Steve Peacocke) fake his own death last year after months of trouble at the hands of his prison enemy Gunno.
With Ricky (Bonnie Sveen) believing her partner was gone forever, she was forced to cope alone as a single mother to their baby son Casey and recently found love again with old flame Nate.
Ricky will learn that Brax is alive shortly after getting engaged to Nate, prompting him immediately to call the wedding off.
The two-hander episode will centre around Ricky and Brax's love story and will explore the aftermath of his actions.
Now faced with the prospect of a future with Brax, Ricky now has to make one of the biggest decisions of her life. Who will she choose - Brax or Nate?
From another website on the upcoming two-hander episode, so SPOILER ALERT!
H&A to air Brax & Ricky Two-Hander
In a first for Home and Away, the show is set to air a special two-hander episode next week in Australia.
Episode 6361 on Monday 15th February will centre on a single conversation between Ricky Sharpe (Bonnie Sveen) and Darryl Braxton (Stephen Peacocke) following his shock return to Summer Bay.
Back in June 2015, Brax was planning to make his escape from incarceration after arranging to be transferred to another prison. However the plan went awry when Gunno’s men ran the prison van off the road and into the river. After saving the prison guard, Brax disappeared and was presumed dead. It wasn’t until Ash met up with Brax in a safehouse that viewers learnt Brax was indeed alive, and decided that continuing the pretence of being dead would be safer for his family.
Since then however, the secret has slowly been leaking out, with Ash’s sister Billie being the first to find out the truth. With Denny Miller and Charlotte King also finding out about Brax’s survival before their respective deaths, the latter of which had been forced into investigating by a suspecting Gunno, it was only going to be a matter of time before things came to a head.
Ricky finally learnt that Brax was alive in the 2015 season finale after Ash had told Phoebe—and has barely had time to digest the news before Brax shows up on her doorstep to ask her and baby Casey to run away with him.
Ricky’s engagement to Nate Cooper will complicate matters further, and whilst it appears initially that Ricky will choose to remain in Summer Bay with Nate, there have been indications that Bonnie Sveen may have filmed her final scenes in December—and possibly filmed further scenes for her departure during Stephen Peacocke’s brief return earlier in the year.
The episode will air in the UK on 4th April 2016.
The show previously aired a four-hander episode in 2004 (Episode 3716) which centred around Sally, Flynn, Leah and Jesse.
I was quite disappointed with these episodes.. Maybe because of the choice Ricky made!
Home and Away welcomes back fan favourite Brax one last time later this month, as he heads back to Summer Bay for Ricky Sharpe's exit week.
Steve Peacocke has reprised his role as Brax for a handful of new scenes, which see the popular character invited back by his love rival Nate Cooper.
After weeks of tension and disagreements, Ricky (Bonnie Sveen) and Nate (Kyle Pryor) will come to the heartbreaking realisation that their relationship is doomed and they're better off apart.
Although he's devastated by how things have turned out, Nate is determined that Ricky should be happy and secretly calls Brax to encourage him to fight for his ex.
Much to Ricky's surprise, Brax does reappear and reveals that he's now a free man but didn't get in touch as he didn't want to interfere in her seemingly happy marriage.
Now that Ricky is available again, Brax makes a heartfelt plea for her to spend the rest of her life with him - paving the way for some bittersweet scenes as they leave the Bay together. But how will Nate really cope with the break-up?
