Home and Away's Justin and Leah death 'sealed' as producers want 'dramatic' end

 Home and Away favourites Justin Morgan and Leah Patterson will be kidnapped in the UK season finale and there is every chance the couple could be killed off the soap...

Home and Away fans can expect new levels of drama as the series finale of the Channel 5 soap sees Justin Morgan and Leah Patterson fighting for their lives.

The lives of the Summer Bay couple, played by James Stewart and Ada Nicodemou, will hang in the balance after they are kidnapped in a holiday gone seriously wrong. They are placed in a dingy warehouse with no food or water, and no means of escaping.

Now, Daily Star has used artificially intelligent “creative” tool Bard AI to find out whether the two characters could be killed off the soap for good. Teasing a dramatic end, the system confirmed the the couple could die as "the show has a history of killing off major characters."

It continued: "It would be a dramatic way to start the new season. Additionally, Justin and Leah's kidnapping is a very dangerous situation, and it is possible that they could be killed or seriously injured."

The system also noted that many fans believe Justin and Leah will escape "unharmed" as they are two popular members of the cast who they have no intention of killing off. Bard AI said: "This is because they are two of the most popular characters on the show, and it would be a shock to the fans if they were killed off.

"Additionally, the show's producers have said that they are not planning to kill off any major characters in the near future." After winning a luxurious getaway, Justin and Leah are delighted at spending some much-needed time together away from the Bay.

But their trip takes a devastating turn when the couple are kidnapped and left for dead in an abandoned warehouse. With no idea where they are and no way of escaping, the days pass as Justin and Leah are left fighting for their lives.

In a desperate attempt to save them, Justin climbs to the top of a ladder and begins scaling the roof. However, when the scrap metal Justin's using to help guide him across the roof comes crashing down, he is left severely injured, leaving Leah is hysterical.

Inside the dingy warehouse are the words 'The End Is Near' graffitied on the wall, and it couldn't be closer to the truth for the pair, who's energy levels are running dangerously low.

With Justin in a dire state, Leah is frantic for help as their lives teeter on the edge. UK viewers will watch the dramatic scenes unfold as Home and Away kicks off its series finale in November 2023.

Ada, 46, made her first appearance as Leah in 2000, making her the third longest serving cast member of a soap in Australia. Meanwhile, James, 47, was introduced as Justin in 2016 and has remained a core member of the cast since his arrival.

Home and Away airs weekdays on Channel 5 at 1:45pm, with first looks at 6pm on 5Star. The series is also available to catch up on My5.
