Home and Away in the UK, Dana begins planning a surprise proposal, unaware that Sonny’s secret is about to ruin her romantic plans.

 

Sonny (Ryan Bown) has secretly become dependent on the steroids supplied by Beau (Blake Richardson) as he pushes himself to recover from the train crash.

But with Sonny’s limited funds, Beau has now ordered him to start selling pills himself in return for keeping his own supply flowing, forcing Sonny to hide even more from Dana.

Completely unaware of what he’s caught up in, Dana (Ally Harris) begins thinking seriously about their future next week, when she reluctantly claims the fishing lesson she won at the surf club fundraiser.

She had only bid on Alf’s (Ray Meagher) donated prize to support the event and initially hopes to avoid taking it up, but his enthusiasm soon wins her over.

Dana is out of her element when they first head onto the beach, yet once they’re settled on their stools overlooking Baywater, she begins to appreciate the peace and quiet.

As they talk, Alf asks how Sonny’s recovery is progressing.

Dana proudly explains how hard he’s been working, prompting Alf to reflect on his own long-distance marriage to Martha (Belinda Giblin).

He urges her not to take what she and Sonny have for granted and encourages her to seize the day.

By the end of the lesson, Dana is surprised by how much she has enjoyed herself.

Although they haven’t caught anything, she realises that fishing is as much about slowing down and enjoying the company as it is about what ends up on the hook.

Back at the surf club, John (Shane Withington) reveals that the winner of his free celebrancy package has pulled out. Dana laughs off his suggestion that she and Sonny could use it, but Alf’s words have already planted the idea.

The following day, Dana confides in Harper (Jessica Redmayne), who’s delighted to learn that her sister is considering popping the question.

Before committing to anything, however, Dana wants reassurance that Sonny sees the same future she does.

Unfortunately, Beau has arranged for Sonny to meet a new client at the gym, with Dana unknowingly disrupting the deal by accompanying him to his session.

As Sonny works out, Dana steers the conversation towards their future.

Riddled with guilt over everything he’s hiding, Sonny admits that it’s all he thinks about, convincing her they’re on the same page.

Their conversation is interrupted when Beau’s client, Declan (Alexander Cortedano), approaches and calls Sonny by his name, forcing him to pretend he’s got the wrong guy.

Meanwhile, Beau suggests another romantic night alone with Harper. Referencing their recent getaway, he proposes dinner in Yabbie Creek and hints that it would be good to spend some time together without Archie.

Harper is reluctant to leave her son, but Beau presses the idea and Marilyn (Emily Symons) agrees to babysit overnight.

As Harper drops off Archie’s things, Beau follows her movements through their location tracking app and becomes agitated when she travels further than he’d expected.

After hearing that Sonny failed to make the sale, Beau confronts him. Sonny explains that Dana followed him to the gym, but Beau angrily reminds him that he hasn’t sold anything yet.

Harper soon sees the same volatile side when she returns home. Beau demands to know where she’s been and accuses her of lying because the app showed her on the other side of town.

Harper explains that she drove Marilyn home with Archie and the travel cot, but Beau insists that he needs to know where she is at all times.

When Harper suggests deleting the app, he snaps and grabs her wrist.

His grip tightens when Harper tries to pull away, and he refuses to let go until she promises to keep the app installed, leaving her bruised.

Beau later fetches an ice pack and apologises, but also suggests Harper could have avoided the confrontation by updating him.

Shaken, Harper cancels their dinner and asks Beau to leave. Once she’s alone, she breaks down in tears.

At the same time, Remi (Adam Rowland) realises his missing credit card has been taken by Sonny. He arrives whilst Beau is berating him, but Sonny covers by claiming they were arguing over how little he helps out around the apartment.

When confronted, Sonny reluctantly hands back the card and points out that Remi is wealthy enough not to miss the money. Remi insists that isn’t the point—he won’t bankroll Sonny’s steroid use.

Sonny later runs into Leah (Ada Nicodemou) whilst lingering at the gym in the hope of making a sale, but unfortunately for him, Leah’s in busybody mode.

When she questions why he’s there without his workout gear, he claims that he’s waiting for a friend, but his evasive manner leaves her suspicious.

When Leah later finds Remi talking to Justin (James Stewart) about his mounting concerns, she mentions Sonny’s strange behaviour at the gym.

Remi arrives at the gym just as Beau confronts Sonny over his failure to complete any deals.

Beau takes back the steroids he’d given Sonny to sell and refuses to replenish his personal supply, leaving Remi to witness the exchange from nearby.

Furious, Remi confronts Sonny and discovers that Beau has been supplying his steroids and using his dependency to force him into dealing.

The following morning, Remi confronts Beau and warns that he’ll tell Harper everything unless Sonny is released from their arrangement. Beau agrees to cut him loose—but only if Remi pays him half a million dollars!

Later, Beau tries to collect Archie from Marilyn, who refuses to hand him over without Harper’s permission. Harper arrives and quickly takes her son to Tane (Ethan Browne), but Beau follows her using the tracking app.

Harper points to her bruised wrist and warns that she has heard countless promises that violence will never happen again. Beau blames his jealousy on previous relationships, declares that he loves her and promises to change.

He invites Harper and Archie to stay at his home so he can prove himself, and she reluctantly agrees to give him another chance.

When Remi reports back to Sonny, Sonny is horrified that he approached Beau at all. He explains that he only agreed to sell the steroids because he thought it would stop Beau trying to get his hands on Remi’s money.

Remi isn’t worried about losing his cash—he’s concerned about what Beau is doing to Sonny. When he urges him to walk away by giving up the steroids, Sonny finally admits that he can’t stop.

Every improvement makes him feel closer to regaining his former body and independence, and he’s desperate to stop relying on Dana and Remi.

Sonny eventually agrees to accept Remi’s help and accompanies him to the hospital. However, he’s already searching for an excuse to leave when Dana messages asking him to meet her at the surf club that evening.

Remi insists that confronting his steroid use has to come first and promises to support him through it.

Unaware of the crisis unfolding, Dana recreates the night she and Sonny first played pool together.

Wearing the same outfit, she decorates the surf club with candles and arranges the balls so that the message “Marry me Sonny” will be revealed when he breaks.

Before Sonny can receive any help, another demanding message arrives from Beau. He gets up to leave, but Remi warns that if he walks away now, he’ll be on his own from then on.

Sonny goes regardless and meets Beau, who orders him to deal with two clients whilst he and Harper go away together. Harper reminds Sonny that Dana is waiting for him, but he still fails to show up.

Dana eventually abandons the proposal and returns home, where Sonny claims he was too tired to meet her. Hurt by his defensive response, she keeps her plans to herself.

The following morning, Dana tells John that there may not be another attempt, as she’s no longer sure Sonny is as committed to their future as she believed…

Home And Away 8765 Episode 6th August 2026

 

Home And Away 8764 Episode 5th August 2026

 

Tomorrow’s episode sees the arrival of Zane Talbot, Home and Away‘s newest character – here’s all we know about him so far.

 

A promo after tonight’s Australian episode of Home and Away previewed the arrival of Zane, played by actor and artist Angus McColl. Thanks to filming being spotted by fans, we already know a few things about the newcomer even before his first scenes air.

Teaser spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that “an ex-con arrives in the Bay,” and that ex-con is now revealed to be Zane, who’s already got an intriguing connection to Marilyn (Emily Symons).

In the new promo, we see Marilyn and Alf at the Surf Club, where Maz introduces Mr Stewart to the new arrival:

I just wanted to introduce you to Zane,” she tells Alf, as text across the promo tells us that “he’s a stranger.”

Heya mate, Alf Stewart” Alf replies cheerily, but it won’t be long until Alf’s impression of the newcomer begins to change.

On Thursday, teaser spoilers tell us that “Alf has reservations about Marilyn’s new friend” as he learns more about his chequered past.

We see Zane arrive at Yabbie Creek police station, where he meets Cash. As Cash asks the new arrival what he can do for him, Zane replies that “I’m on parole, I’m moving here.”

You don’t know him, but he seems to know a lot about you,” the promo’s voiceover tells us, as we see Zane walking into the diner.

As he’s introduced to Leah (Ada Nicodemou), it seems he already knows who she is, greeting her as “the famous Leah”!

“What an honour,” he continues, as Maz introduces him to Leah and John (James Stewart).

You must be Justin,” he adds, shaking Justin’s hand. How does he know so much about our Summer Bay favourites?

“Yeah,” Justin replies cautiously, before Leah asks what everyone in town is thinking: “So how do you know us

At the Surf Club, Marilyn explains to Alf that “Zane’s actually just got out of prison,” prompting a shocked look from Mr Stewart.

Over dinner at Salt with Zane and Marilyn, Alf pulls no punches, asking the new arrival why he did time.

It’s clear that Alf is sceptical of the newcomer, and in a later scene at the diner, Zane tells him: “If I was in your shoes, I wouldn’t want me around either.”

“Should you trust him?” asks the promo’s voiceover.

It seems that Alf’s scepticism of the newcomer will be difficult to overcome, as in the episode airing on Wednesday 12th August, “Alf isn’t ready to let go of Zane’s past.”

However, it seems Leah is more willing to forgive, as she “micromanages her new hire” in the same episode – is Maz about to convince Leah to give Zane a job in the diner?

While we’ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out exactly how Zane and Marilyn know each other, we’ve known about their connection for a number of months, thanks to fans spotting Angus McColl filming with actress Emily Symons at Sydney’s Palm Beach earlier this year.

As the pair walked along the beach, the then unknown character was seen handing Marilyn a large brown envelope, which she proceeded to open.

Maz pulled out and looked at a number of pages, before handing one of the sheets back to the man we now know as Zane. The pair then engaged in a brief conversation, before Zane handed the page back to Marilyn and walks off.

In another scene – filmed later in the day but presumably set to appear earlier on screen – Marilyn walked along the parkland and sat next to the new arrival on the bench overlooking the water.

The pair then sat together, deep in conversation, as Zane held the brown envelope in his hand.

In a scene filmed shortly after, the pair walked up from the beach towards the road, where they posted the intriguing envelope into a postbox.

In late April, Angus was once again seen filming with Emily, suggesting that he’ll be sticking around for at least two months.

Emily Symons isn’t the only character to become close to Zane. In a scene filmed in early March, the R&F Adventure YouTubers saw Kyle Shilling – aka Mali – filming a scene with the new character. Zane character was seen running out of the surf club, with Mali in pursuit.

Mali tried to stop him, telling him that he’s bleeding and that there’s a first aid kit inside, insisting that he help him get cleaned up.

The new arrival was reluctant to accept Mali’s help and seemed to want to get away as quickly as possible.

“I don’t care about that, okay, I’m not gonna call the cops,” Mali was heard saying, and he eventually managed to convince the new arrival to come back inside.

With Zane struggling to escape the shackles of his criminal past, will he feel judged by those around him in Summer Bay?

Watch the scene being filmed on YouTube here.

Angus was later seen filming at the beach alongside Kyle Shilling, suggesting that the new character and Mali are set to grow close.

Despite Zane clearly being in Summer Bay in search of a fresh start, it seems that he’ll soon return to his old ways and won’t get a happy ending. At the end of April, a photo was uploaded to the Home and Away Spoilers & Info group showing Angus’s character being led away by a police officer!

Actor Angus McColl isn’t believed to have been spotted by fans at Palm Beach since the dramatic scenes were filmed in April, suggesting that his arrest is what causes his exit from Summer Bay.

Zane arrives on Australian screens on Wednesday 5th August. UK viewers will meet him just two weeks later on Wednesday 19th August.
