Bianca Scott (played by Lisa Gormley) is Italian in every respect. She’s fiery, opinionated, beautiful, sophisticated – she’s everything her father wished for in a daughter and everything Fellini wished for in a leading lady.
However, she’s also the product of an Aussie mum who knew how to keep her daughter’s arrogance in check with undercutting humour and a healthy dose of reality. Her half sister April also keeps her 'princess' behaviour in check.
As a result, Bianca takes compliments on her looks with a grain of salt. She values intelligence over everything, even style which is very important to her.
A teacher of languages – French, Italian and English – she has dated captains of industry, doctors, and even a prince. And throughout, she has kept her heart in bubble wrap, trusting very few men and setting the bar so high even the greatest of lovers would have trouble keeping her.
Not backward in coming forward, Bianca says what she means, when she means it, even if she’s wrong. And she fights every romantic instinct in her European body, to varying degrees of success.

I like April, and Bianca sounds like she could be a good character too.

Home And Away viewers are to be introduced to a new character in the form of fun-loving Bianca Scott.
Half-Italian Bianca, played by Lisa Gormley, arrives in Summer Bay to heal a broken heart and to join her half-sister April (Rhiannon Fish).

Bradford-born actress Lisa told the soap's Australian website: "She's a lot of fun to play. I think she's the kind of woman every girl wishes she had the confidence to be. But I think her strength and her feisty personality are a bit of a front for a soft, mushy marshmallow centre."

She said Bianca says what she thinks and would give the boys a run for their money.

Bianca starts teaching foreign languages and English at the high school, and takes a shine to musician Liam Murphy (Axle Whitehead) - although Lisa said her character merely views him as the chance for "a bit of fun".

She said: "Bianca is a little bit broken-hearted when she arrives so she's not looking for love. I think she's looking to be in control of her love life again so I think she has a bit of cat and mouse fun with Liam - him being the mouse."

I dont want Liam with Ruby

[TaintedLove]

Bianca is stunning...really beautiful. And I loved that red ball gown she was wearing when she first came to Summer Bay.
I am glad she and Liam will be an item...not because I think they`ll make a great couple, but because Ruby will be ticked off.

Home and Away star Rhiannon Fish has teased the latest twist ahead for her stressed-out character April Scott, who is about to start dabbling in drugs as she struggles with exam pressure.

April resorts to desperate measures in scenes which soon air in Australia, deciding to take medication to help her stay awake as she puts in long hours of study for her HSC exams.

The episodes in question see April steal Sid Walker's (Robert Mammone) script pad to write herself a prescription, disregarding the seriousness of her actions.

Fish told TV Week of the storyline: "April is one of those people who just puts so much pressure on herself. The fact it's illegal doesn't cross her mind - she just needs something to help her make it through the exams."

The actress also promised that April's decision will have long-lasting consequences.

"It's something that will affect her for the rest of her life, taking these drugs," Fish explained.

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

Home and Away star Lisa Gormley has revealed that her character Bianca Scott will soon face a crisis of conscience after lying to the police in a forthcoming storyline.

As reported last week, Liam Murphy (Axle Whitehead) will be left in a serious condition after being hit on his motorbike by Brax (Steve Peacocke) and Charlie (Esther Anderson), who are returning home from a short trip out of town.

Fans already know that Heath (Dan Ewing) takes the blame for the accident to ensure that the authorities do not find out that Brax was with police officer Charlie, his on-off girlfriend.

However, TV Week now reports that, although Heath and Bianca insist they were in the car which hit the bike, Bianca later wonders whether she is doing the right thing.

When Liam wakes up from a coma, he immediately tells Bianca that he remembers Brax and Charlie were in the car. Although she initially insists that his memory must be hazy, Bianca is left to consider whether she can continue lying to protect Charlie and Brax.

Gormley told the magazine: "She's angry and scared and doesn't know what to do. Is she really going to lie to the police and the man she loves? There's no good way out of it."

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

Home and Away's Bianca Scott is having another eventful year in Summer Bay as she remains at the centre of a love triangle with new husband Liam (Axle Whitehead) and bad boy Heath Braxton (Dan Ewing).

Fans of the soap saw Bianca and Liam tie the knot earlier this year, but their marriage has come under strain since the revelation that the blonde is carrying Heath's baby.

Lisa Gormley, who plays Bianca, recently had a catch-up chat with Digital Spy about her current storylines.

What have Bianca's relationship troubles been like to film?
"It's been great to have the relationship dramas with the added drama of the pregnancy. It's added a bit more excitement and higher stakes. It's been good fun to film and a bit sad at the same time - a bit of both!"

Are you confident that Liam is the best match for Bianca?
"Yeah, I do believe that Bianca has made the best choice in marrying Liam. There's still chemistry with Heath, but that's what it's always been - chemistry. It hasn't been love, romance or security, it's always just been a pure chemical attraction.

"That spark is still there, and there's now the added fact that Heath is the father of Bianca's child. But Liam's definitely the best match for her, for mental health reasons alone!"

Would Bianca ever be unfaithful to Liam?
"No, it's happened to Bianca in the past as Vittorio cheated on her - and that absolutely destroyed her. There's no way she would do that to someone she loves."

Bianca doesn't want Heath to have anything to do with the baby. Can you understand her hesitation?
"As Lisa, I'd say, 'No, that's completely unfair and you can't do that!' But Bianca isn't thinking straight and she's petrified that she's going to lose the man she loves. She's pregnant and she did want the baby to be Liam's, but unfortunately the situation has turned out differently.

"Bianca is just fighting for her ideals, but sometimes you have to let go of those and accept the position that you're in. I think she's going to have to do some adjusting when it comes to her position.

"Bianca does start looking for things in Heath that you'd want to find in a father, because ultimately she knows that he's going to be involved. It's great for her to see him with Darcy - being so happy and a good father."

Here in the UK, we'll soon see Bianca and Liam consider leaving Summer Bay. What's going through their minds?
"Liam brings up the idea and initially Bianca says, 'We can't do that - it's not rational and it's not fair on the people around us'. But it comes to a point where she has no more options. She can't express in words to Liam that she wants to be with him and that she's not going to suddenly run off with Heath.

"Ultimately it's a final decision that she makes to convince Liam that she wants to be with him. She decides to do it to prove that she's serious and she doesn't want Heath."

Is she surprised when Heath takes legal action to prevent them from leaving?
"Absolutely - who'd have thought that he'd go so far? It is a shock and you'll have to see how that plays out. But it's a big decision for him."

Why do you think April has made life so difficult for Bianca recently?
"April always thinks she's doing the right thing, but sometimes she just needs to shut up! Ultimately and morally she is right in the things that she does, but she thinks in the moment and doesn't consider the consequences."

Home and Away's new series producer Lucy Addario has been in charge for a few months now. What's the atmosphere like with a new boss at the helm?
"It hasn't really changed. Lucy was working alongside [previous producer] Cam anyway, so she was well in tune with all of us here and we knew her well. But it's feeling good, new and exciting. These are the types of jobs that you do for a few years and then you move on to do other things. I think that's good as it keeps things fresh."

Where would you like Bianca to go next?
"I'd like to see some comedy from her, and I'd like to see her very dark side! There's still a long way to go with the character, which is very exciting for me."
