81She’s barely been keeping it
together since her violent
altercation with Bella’s
(Courtney Miller) stalker
Tommy (Adam Sollis) took a
truly shocking turn. But Irene’s
(Lynne McGranger) nightmare
is only just beginning!
Having anonymously,
with Bella, dropped off a
still-unconscious Tommy- who is yet to be
identified – at the hospital,
Irene is struggling under the
weight of her terrible secret.
And when Irene this week
offers Jasmine’s (Sam Frost)
newly vacated room to Willow
(Sarah Roberts), who jumps
at the opportunity to move
downstairs, she spots Tommy’s
blood on the bedspread.
Irene desperately begins
scrubbing at the incriminating
evidence, but will she be
caught out by Willow?
“Irene’s guilt is
overwhelming her,” says
Lynne. “What’s more, it’s now
hit the news and everyone in
the town is talking about this
‘John Doe’ who is lying
unconscious in hospital – and
that only makes Irene’s guilteven worse. She also feels
it’s only a matter of time before
the police put two and two
together and come knocking
on her door.”
Meanwhile, Leah (Ada
Nicodemou) picks up on the
fact that her dear friend and
fellow Diner owner is not her
usual upbeat self.
And then Colby (Tim
Franklin) reveals there has
been a breakthrough in the
case – Tommy’s car was found
on Irene’s street.
Irene may well reach
breaking point!The day of Ben’s (Rohan Nichol)
bail hearing over his drug
trafficking charges finally arrives
this week. And for his wife Maggie
(Kestie Morassi), whose heart has
been breaking as her husband
languishes behind bars, it couldn’t
come soon enough.
Doing all she can to lift his spirits
and hopes, as she vows to remain
by Ben’s side no matter what the
day brings, Maggie struggles to
keep her fears to herself.
Will Ben be released on bail,
or is the fight to clear his name just
beginning?
