Dee Bliss (Madeleine West)

Dee gets so quick easy visits to see Andrea and her hair is it real, the length and roots etc.,

The actress’ hair is actually brown. The blonde is a wig and it’s not a very good one.

Nope

It's kind of distracting knowing it's a wig. Why not either have Dee/Andrea with brown hair or have Madeleine bleach her hair?

Even though Andrea is a despicable character I'm loving Madeleine's acting- the interaction with Kerry's Heather is lots of fun

It also didn’t make sense for them or Andrea to have the same regrowth. Don’t think they’re allowed bleach in prison so her blonde would have faded a lot in that amount of time. And if they were natural blondes then there wouldn’t be brown regrowth.

I also love Heather as a character. I’m warming up to her. She seems to really want to turn her life around and cares deeply for her daughters.

The reason why they didn’t bleach Madeleines hair, I’d because she has her natural hair, in Playing for keeps.

Not a spoiler, but an interesting crossover for Neighbours and H&A fans...

A current Home and Away star has shared a surprising connection to a very popular and very chaotic Neighbours storyline, revealing she once starred in the competing soap, but in a very subtle way.

Jessica Redmayne, who plays Harper Matheson on Home and Away, shared on her Instagram Stories that she played the body double for character Andrea Somers on Neighbours. If that name doesn't quite ring a bell, then surely the name Dee Bliss (played by Madeleine West) does ? Dee was an iconic '00s character on Neighbours before she appeared to meet her tragic, untimely end on the day of her wedding to Toadie when he drove their car off a cliff and into the sea. Idiot.

Home and Away star's surprising connection to Neighbours
Anyway, what does that have to do with Neighbours character Andrea? Well, Madeleine West returned to Neighbours in 2016, introduced as Dee back from the dead, but it turned out to be Andrea Somers, a woman impersonating Dee in an attempt to swindle some money.

Now, in this already convoluted storyline, enter Jessica Redmayne, who played Madeleine West's body double when Madeleine was playing Andrea, not Dee, and you have the full picture!

Jessica recently shared a snap on her Instagram story revealing the body double gig in a throwback photo from five years ago.

Jessica's stroll down memory lane was to commemorate that she's now playing a lead character on a show and now needs her own body double, due to Harper's pregnancy storyline, which she posted in her next snap.

Home and Away fans loved the little throwback and fun fact
"Wow, I watched Neighbours back then (along with Home and Away of course, and of course I watch both shows now) and didn't know this until now," one person commented.

"Wow, I really thought it was Dee playing both parts!" another said, while someone else chimed in, "Oooh, that?s a great interesting fact."

Meanwhile, another fan had other things on her mind. "I'm telling you, Jessica looks like, Marcia, Maureen McCormick from the Brady Bunch. Can anyone else see this?"

Tbh, I do.
