As we approach the final months of another year, Home and Away has served up its first taster of what's to come in Summer Bay in 2020.
Channel 7, which broadcasts the soap in Australia, has just revealed its plans for the upcoming year – and it looks like a tragedy is set to rock the residents of the seaside town.
What's more, viewers will be treated to a brand new family, as well as an "unexpected wedding".
The official synopsis reads (via TV Tonight): "In 2020, the country’s No. 1 Australian drama will explore stories of love, romance, betrayal and psychological obsession.
"We see the introduction of a new family which will inject an exciting dynamic to the stellar ensemble cast.
"And 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."
That certainly leaves itself wide open for speculation, and Digital Spy will keep you posted as and when more details trickle through.
Elsewhere in Home and Away, it looks like there’s trouble on the horizon for Ziggy and Dean’s romance, as the latter is set to get an admirer.
The same goes for Irene, who learns her fate next week when the jury returns to trial. It’s the moment of truth – but will she be found guilty or innocent?
Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 (Australia).
