Just five hours ago, the actress had shared a behind the scenes video while doing her makeup on the sets. The show competes with the extremely popular Neighbours which is first aired in 1985. Due to Home And Away's success it spawned a short lived spin off in the form of Headland. Home And Away (also known as H&A) is an Australian soap that focuses on the various families who live and work in the fictional beach town of Summer Bay. In 2009, the show introduced a love story between two female characters, but family groups lobbied against a planned kiss on the show and the Herald Sun ran a story under the headline 'Gay TV for kids'.
In May 2012, the show filmed scenes at Flinders Ranges and Nilpena Station in South Australia for a storyline in which Casey Braxton was kidnapped and taken to the outback by Kyle Braxton . The following month, Home and Away filmed scenes in Melbourne for the second time. In November 2014, the show filmed an episode at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra with several cast members, as a tribute to the Anzac Centenary.
Watch 'Home and Away' actors' perform emotional haka after tragic loss
After the Seven Network cancelled their soap opera Neighbours on 12 July 1985 due to low ratings, rival Network 10 picked it up and turned it into a success. A couple of years later, Seven's head of drama, Alan Bateman, became desperate to get back into the soap market and began to work out how to launch another soap that was not a copy of Neighbours. While on a trip to Kangaroo Point, New South Wales with his family, Bateman began talking to locals who were "up in arms" over the construction of a foster home for children from the city. Seeing the degree of conflict the "influx of parentless children on a tight-knit community" was having, Bateman came away with the idea for a new serial. While Seven Network executives were unconvinced by the idea, audience research was positive.
Amy Winehouse, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain, Jonathan Brandis, and Anton Yelchin are all stars who never made it to twenty-eight years old. R&B singer Aaliyah died at just twenty-two years old while flying back from her “Rock the Boat” video shoot in the Bahamas. “Queen of Tejano music” Selena Quintanilla Pérez tragically died after she was shot by the president of her fan club, Yolanda Saldívar.

The lyrics remained the same since the show's inception, but a number of verses were gradually cut back over the years due to time restrictions. The original version was sung by Karen Boddington and Mark Williams, and was used from 1988 until mid-1995. Their version was released as a single in the UK in 1989 and peaked at number 73 on the UK Singles Chart. A new version performed by Doug Williams and Erana Clark debuted in 1995 and the opening theme was shortened in 1996; this version remained until 1999.
"I still can't believe they cut this, I have watched it over and over and think it's one of my favourite scenes," another fan wrote. "Doesn't seem like a good sign they are cutting dialogue important in understanding how deeply they feel about each other and deleting scenes that show physical affection," another fan wrote. "So it seems to be strange to me in a world of serial storytelling where Neighbours is happy to do that, why Home and Away would feel uncomfortable putting that kind of stuff to air." "It kind of feels like they prepared two different versions, so they had a version they could pull the plug on that couple if it didn't go well, but they got a good reaction from the audience," she said. "That edited version really downplays their relationship," Ms Shillington said. She said fans did not understand why the Australian audience did not see the full scenes between Alex and Willow.
Location and sets
From 2000 to 2003, the theme song to Home and Away was sung by The Robertson Brothers and it was the first version to use only male vocals. A 30-second updated version by The Robertson Brothers was used from 2004 to 2006. In January 2007, a new version was introduced and performed by Israel Cannan, who played the character Wazza in the show. After Cannan's version received many complaints from fans, the Seven Network decided to re-record the theme song in April 2007 with vocals provided by Luke Dolahenty. A shorter, 15-second version sung by Dolahenty and Tarryn Stokes debuted in 2009. Aside from New South Wales, Home and Away has also filmed scenes in other states of Australia.
"As if they didn't think fans would notice something was missing? Cut for time? My foot! Something is amiss," one fan wrote. On social media, the Alex and Willow couple have a strong following, particularly in the LGBTIQ community. "There seems to be genuine chemistry and I have liked the storyline. It has been much more realistic than some other LGBT stories we have had in Australia," she said.

When I left New Zealand to work in Brisbane, I thought, "No-one knows me here, I can do what I want." I started taking night classes and fell in love with it , then got into NIDA and now I'm here. While the performance was well received around the world, Kipa-Williams revealed the haka hit home because of the loss of a family member in real life. Three Māori actors who play members of Home and Away's Parata family have performed a spine-tingling haka that's captured the hearts of viewers around the world. This week's Australian episodes have seen the story take a new twist, with Nikau's uncle Tane warning that the Parata family are in danger. During the show's first season in 1988, a rape storyline for the character Carly Morris outraged the public and a protest erupted, as viewers deemed it an inappropriate subject to be covering in an early evening time slot.
The following night, the viewing figure fell to 581,000 and the show ranked 10th for the night. The first triple bill on 21 February pulled in 577,000 viewers and ranked 8th for the evening. The ratings for the triple bill episodes continued to fall from 524,000 to 414,000 viewers, and on 28 March 2019, the triple bill pulled in a series low of 383,000 viewers and ranked 14th for the night.
The soap opera was initially called Refuge, but the name was changed to the "friendlier" title of Home and Away once production began. The triple bill episodes continued to receive low ratings until the Thursday, 9 May episodes, which improved with 617,000 viewers. The following week's triple bill saw a further rise with 627,000 viewers, while the episodes broadcast on 30 May received 638,000 viewers and ranked at 7th place for the evening. The 2020 season return saw a series low for a premiere with only 548,000 tuning in. The 2021 season has seen an increase in ratings with most episodes attracting over 600,000. June saw a rise in viewers when the month peaked at 650,000 for episode which aired on 22 June, while in July, the show continues to receive steady ratings, and again saw a further rise in ratings with 657,000 viewers tuning in on 7 July.
He is survived by his dancer wife, Allison Holker Boss, and their three children. Following his tragic passing, tributes from his wife, Ellen DeGeneres, and other celebrities poured in. Justin Timberlake wrote, “It’s heartbreaking to hear that someone who brought so much joy to a room, was hurting so much behind closed doors." On the occasion of International Men's Day, she put up a loved-up post for him. It seems she had told her relatives that he had been allegedly harassing her. This relative claims that they spoke to Sheezan M Khan about the same.
Some cast members have won several other awards such as the Gold Logie for Most Popular Personality on Australian Television, Silver Logie for Most Popular Actor, and Most Popular Actress. A dramatic upcoming plot will see the character’s life hanging in the balance after a stabbing - but luckily actor Ethan’s real life is a quieter affair, although it does have some twists and turns worthy of a soap storyline. There have been nine different versions of the theme song used throughout the years.
