Coming up on Home and Away in Australia, Mackenzie puts in a call to a River Boy as she tells Tane it’s time for him to skip town

Mackenzie puts in a call to a River Boy as she tells Tane it’s time for him to skip town while is Lacey’s situation with Holden about to turn deadly?

As Tane’s (Ethan Browne) court date looms, it appears as though all hope has been lost of proving his innocence.

Arrested for possession with intent to supply—after Harper’s (Jessica Redmayne) mother Kerrie (Sara Wiseman) planted drugs in baby Archie’s cot—Tane was released on bail after Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) put up a significant amount of money for his bond.

The decision did not sit well with Cash’s superior, David (Jeremy Lindsay Taylor), who promptly removed him from the investigation on the grounds that he was too personally involved.

But with David seemingly not prioritising the theory that Tane had been set up, Cash embarked on his own unofficial enquiries.

This was made all the more difficult when he found he’d been blocked from accessing the police database, but after gathering some names from Harper as possible contacts that Kerrie could have utilised, Cash went away for a few days to chase them up.

Unfortunately Cash hit a dead end. The names Harper remembered were all from over a decade ago, and none of them had seen Kerrie for some time.

Cash reluctantly told David what he’d been up to, with David ultimately agreeing to bring Cash back onto the case, but so far there’s still been no further progress.

This week, Tane’s lawyer Jane (Charlotte Friels) makes a bold suggestion—seeing how the case is panning out, she thinks it’s time that Tane faced the fact that he will likely be sent down. As such, he needs to concentrate on reducing his sentence… by pleading guilty.

For Tane, it’s not an option. He insists he will not admit to a crime he didn’t commit—particularly when doing so would mean accepting years away from Archie

The disagreement has drastic consequences when Jane withdraws from the case, leaving Tane without legal representation just days before he is due back in court!

With time running out and no fresh evidence to support his defence, the reality of the situation begins to close in.

“It all happens so fast,” Ethan told TV Week. “He doesn’t want his son to grow up with him in prison.”

Concerned about her dear friend, Mackenzie (Emily Weir) decides to take action, and puts in a call to brother Dean (Patrick O’Connor) to ask whether he’d be able to help someone who needed to disappear…

It’s not long before Mac hears that Dean has put in a call to an old friend, who turns out to be none other than former River Boy leader Brax (Stephen Peacocke), last seen in Summer Bay back in 2016.

Tane’s stunned when Mack later makes the suggestion that he should go on the run. But faced with a potential 15-year sentence, will Tane feel like he has any other choice?

“If he takes off now, he can hopefully be with him in the future,” Ethan continues. “He thinks he’s doing what’s best for his son.”

Those who’ve kept up with our stories will already know Tane’s final decision, with it being revealed last year that the show was heading away for a special shoot in Western Australia which sees the return of Brax and Ricky (Bonnie Sveen).

In the past decade, the pair have made a new life for themselves, off the grid working on a remote cattle station in WA.

Next Monday, we catch up with the pair—alongside 10-year-old son Casey (Austin Cutcliffe)—as they talk about the request they’ve had from Dean. 

Having worked hard to lay low over the years, reasons for which are still unknown considering Brax was a free man when he left Summer Bay, helping Tane has the potential to destroy everything they’ve worked for.

He’s risking a lot to open the door to that world again,” Stephen Peacocke added. “So when the old life comes calling, which it does, we’ve got to see whether he’s going to help out, because there’s an option that he can turn his back on it.”

But can they stand by and watch an innocent man go to jail and be separated from his son, just like Brax had been all those years ago?

Elsewhere in Summer Bay, Holden (Lach Millar) shows no sign of backing off in his pursuit of Lacey (Sophea Pennington), despite having been arrested for breaching the terms of his AVO.

Lacey had hoped the order her father put in place would finally curb Holden’s behaviour, but instead it appears to have hardened his resolve, as he remains determined to “fix” things with the woman he continues to deludedly view as his “girlfriend”.

After Holden broke into the Beach House for a second time, Lacey was horrified to find him waiting for her in the bathroom and called the police. Cash came across Holden a short while later and was able to place him under arrest following a short pursuit. 

With the breach of his AVO, together with further charges of breaking and entering and resisting arrest, it seemed as though Lacey’s ordeal would finally be over.

But this week Lacey’s left reeling when she learns that Holden has been granted bail, with David and Leah (Ada Nicodemou) quickly focusing on practical steps to limit any further risk to Lacey.

David arranges for Lacey to stay at the Bay Motel rather than the Beach House, wary that Holden could turn up there again, and advises her to remain in busy, public places wherever possible.

But during her next shift at the board shop, Lacey is asked to collect a set of surfboards from the beach following a class. Without any further thought, she heads down on her own—only to find Holden waiting.

Holden insists that they’re meant to be together and presses her to leave with him, grabbing her arm as she desperately tries to pull away. Fortunately, Mali (Kyle Shilling) spots the confrontation and races across the sand, prompting Holden to take off.

“It’s at that point Lacey realises that he doesn’t care about the AVO and that terrifies her,” Sophea tells TV Week. “They’re following all the right protocols that the system has to keep her safe, yet Holden is still finding a way to find her.”

Later, any sense of security the motel was meant to provide also proves to be short-lived. When Lacey opens the door to her room, believing it to be a takeaway delivery, she’s confronted by Holden once again.

Pushing past her and into the room, Holden blocks Lacey’s exit as she attempts to get away.

“Things get very heated and, when it escalates, Lacey’s reaction isn’t about revenge or aggression, it’s about survival,” Sophea continues.

Will Lacey be able to summon help, or, with a recent promo suggesting that someone won’t survive the week, will she be forced to take matters into her own hands?

Justin returns to Summer Bay in secret, before telling Leah that he doesn’t want to be in his marriage any more!

 

Next week on Home and Away in the UK, Justin returns to Summer Bay in secret, before telling Leah that he doesn’t want to be in his marriage any more!

In the weeks since Theo’s (Matt Evans) death, the strain on Justin (James Stewart) and Leah’s (Ada Nicodemou) marriage has steadily intensified.

Leah, overwhelmed by grief, leaned heavily on Theo’s mate Sonny (Ryan Bown) for support, unconsciously seeing him as a replacement for her nephew and convinced he understood her pain in a way Justin couldn’t.

As Justin attempted to help Leah deal with her grief, and took issue over what seemed to be an unhealthy obsession with Sonny, Leah continued to push her husband away—culminating in Leah accusing Justin of not caring about Theo at all.

It wasn’t until a conversation with Lacey (Sophea Pennington), just as Justin was preparing to head off to the Off The Rails festival, that Leah began to recognise how far she’d drifted.

Admitting to Alf (Ray Meagher) that she hadn’t properly dealt with her grief, she resolved to fix things—but events quickly overtook her.

When Justin was hospitalised following the train crash, Leah rushed to him, only to be met with coldness.

Hurt by weeks of feeling second best, Justin made it clear that a sudden change of heart didn’t undo the damage she’d caused, and ordered her to leave.

Next week, after discovering the full extent of Sonny’s spinal injury and that his prognosis remains uncertain, Leah decides to visit him at Northern Districts. She apologises for leaning on him so heavily after Theo’s death, admitting it wasn’t fair.

hearing that Sonny has clashed with Dana (Ally Harris)—her optimism about his recovery only deepening his frustration—Leah urges him not to push her away.

She reminds him that Dana cares deeply and deserves the chance to support him, adding that he once told her to let Justin in—advice she now wishes she’d taken.

But the conversation is abruptly interrupted when Justin appears at the doorway and sees Leah by Sonny’s bedside.

To Justin, it confirms everything he feared. Despite all that has happened between them, Leah is still choosing Sonny. Furious, he refuses to hear her explanation and walks away.

Later that day, Justin is discharged, but is frustrated when Nurse Kylie (Clementine Anderson) won’t allow him to leave without someone to accompany him.

luckily, Alf arrives at that moment and offers to take him home, but Justin makes his position clear—he has no intention of returning home. If Leah’s there, he won’t step foot inside.

Instead of booking a motel as he planned, Justin agrees to stay with Alf and Marilyn (Emily Symons).

Back at Summer Bay House, Marilyn is surprised when Justin walks in with his bag, as Alf explains that he’ll be staying a while. Confirming that Leah doesn’t know, Justin insists it’s better that way. 

It’s only after bumping into Levi (Tristan Gorey) that Leah discovers that Justin is out of hospital, and is stunned that he didn’t tell her. With no message and no sign of him at home, she fears he may have checked into a motel on his own.

It’s only when Marilyn, who’s clearly hiding something, reluctantly admits that Justin is staying with her and Alf that Leah finally learns where he is.

Determined not to let things spiral further, Leah heads straight to Alf’s to confront Justin, who admits outright that he is avoiding her.

When she asks how long he plans to stay, he tells her she doesn’t get a say—not after what’s happened.

Leah begs for a chance to explain about what happened at the hospital, but Justin doesn’t care why she was at Sonny’s bedside; in his eyes, it proves she says one thing and does another. When Alf suggests they all sit down and talk it out, Justin walks out instead.

Sitting with Alf, Leah pleads for him to intervene, even asking him to kick Justin out so they’re forced to face each other.

Alf refuses to take sides, reminding her that these doors are always open to friends in need—just as they were for Leah when she refused to return home following her release from the mental health clinic two years ago.

Alf questions why she went back to see Sonny, pointing out that, from Justin’s perspective, it was bound to look like history repeating itself.

Leah insists she went to help Dana and to encourage Sonny not to shut her out, but she needs Justin to hear that from her directly.

Alf promises to speak to Justin again. When he does, Justin admits the issue runs deeper than a single hospital visit. For weeks, he felt like the enemy in his own marriage. He tried to explain how much her behaviour was hurting him, and she didn’t listen. Now, he says, his trust in her is gone.

At the diner, as Leah continues to complain about Justin, Marilyn finally snaps.

She reminds Leah that Justin tried for ages to explain how shut out he felt, and she didn’t listen. Apologising now doesn’t automatically undo that damage.

Eventually, prompted by Alf’s reminder of the love they once shared, Justin agrees to have a proper conversation with Leah.

He admits he’s thought deeply about their history together, but it’s only brought him to a painful realisation…

“I don’t think I want to be in this marriage any more,” he tells a stunned Leah.

Is this really the end for Justin and Leah?

Home and Away confirms plans for second shock death of 2026

 But who will it be?

Home and Away has released a new teaser for what it is calling the 'Inescapable Week', with the new promo coming with a big warning – one character won't survive to see next weekend.

One of the two big storylines is Lacey's stalking dilemma. Holden has been scarily obsessed with her since meeting her last year, and broke into her house in the latest episode.

Things will escalate from there, but will it really lead to one of their deaths?

Meanwhile, Remi will be undergoing some majorly risky surgery in order to try and deal with his tumour, but will it be successful, or will the thing intended to save his life be the thing that ends it?

The Australian outlet Back to the Bay believes it has worked out which character is likely to die based on who has been seen filming in the exterior scenes recently. Although it's not 100%, you can find out the possible spoiler here.

Meanwhile, UK fans will of course have to wait a few extra weeks to see who bites the bucket.

It's not the only exciting thing happening during the big week, as Brax and Ricky are also coming back, which fans are very much looking forward to.

"Can't wait for Brax and Ricky my faves!!!!!!!!" one fan wrote, while another said: "So exited to see Brax back, we need more hunks on Summer Bay."
