This week, Home and Away welcomes new arrival Stevie Marlow, as Cash finds himself a new job working for an actress in need of help.
fresh persona It’s said that Stevie (Catherine Văn-Davies) is a well-known actress who employs Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) after disclosing that she needs help and is having problems. Will Cash soon find himself in a lot of difficulty in his new job as a security guard?
Following his departure from the police department at the end of last year, Cash has been experiencing somewhat of an identity crisis in recent months.
Despite being a bent officer Detective Will Madden (Jonny Pasvolsky), the former Senior Constable was suspended from Northern Districts Police for his role in harboring Dana Matheson (Ally Harris).
Cash ultimately made the decision to leave his job and go into security because he was frustrated at being suspended for attempting to do the right thing.
Even though he was excited to start a new career free of the red tape and bureaucracy of the police department, he quickly discovered that his new position as a mall cop wasn’t what it was cracked up to be.
He was assigned to the night shift, which meant spending many hours aimlessly meandering through a deserted mall.
His buddy was wasting time on his phone, leaving Cash all by himself, as he described to girlfriend Eden (Stephanie Panozzo). The biggest thrill of all came when a shopkeeper realized they had misplaced their keys.
He was hoping to be promoted to a more exciting position at the private security company he worked for, which had many contracts in the area. But Cash’s supervisor quickly informed him that no positions were open at the moment, so Cash decided on the spur of the moment to resign, which resulted in his being unemployed once more.
When he gets to the designated spot, a luxurious boat is waiting for him. He meets a well-known actress named Stevie Marlow there. Stevie skips the introductions and tells Cash straight away that she needs his assistance because she is in trouble.
What is Cash going to become entangled in?
According to spoilers for episodes that premiere on Thursday, “Cash balances Stevie’s demands with his own needs” and “Stevie won’t take no for an answer,” implying that Cash will be busy managing his new boss.
It appears that the enigmatic and disturbed actress will meet her grisly end sooner rather than later, despite the fact that we know very nothing else about her.
Nearly all of the outdoor sequences from Summer Bay, including the well-known beach, were shot in Sydney’s Northern Beaches’ publicly accessible Palm Beach. As a result, many months before they appear on our screens, fans, press, and Home and Away Tour participants frequently get a behind-the-scenes look at sequences that are being shot.
Images of Catherine Văn-Davies filming at Palm Beach with Nicholas Cartwright and several other well-known figures surfaced late last year.
Social media footage appeared to reveal a movie set inside another movie set. Actress Stevie appears to be filming at Summer Bay with a production crew, most likely led by Cash, who will serve as her bodyguard.
However, Cash might be about to find that he’s no better a security guard than he was a cop.
Things take a dark turn, with footage taken by fan Ingrid Rose Foster showing Nicholas Cartwright (Cash) running towards Catherine Văn-Davies (Stevie), before a director shouts “Bang!”, signalling for the actors and extras to react to the sound of a gun going off.
Stevie then collapses in Cash’s arms before writhing on the ground, as the extras react in shock.
Video footage shows Nicholas Cartwright scream out, “She’s been shot, somebody call an ambulance,” as the beachgoer extras flee the beach in search of help.
Photos from a later date then emerged showing the filming of a wake, with a cardboard sign with ‘RIP Stevie’ written on it, appearing to confirm that the new character dies within months of arriving in Summer Bay.
Stevie’s wake is attended by at least Roo (Georgie Parker), Alf (Ray Meagher), John (Shane Withington) and Justin (James Stewart), suggesting that the actress will make a good impression on the residents of Summer Bay in her short time in the town.
Catherine Văn-Davies has previously starred in The Twelve, Barons, Hungry Ghosts and It’s Fine, I’m Fine.
Hot on the heels of Stevie is another new character, whose name is currently unknown, played by Mahesh Jadu. He looks set to be connected to Stevie, and was on the beach at the time of her shooting.
While the new arrival looks set to be connected to Stevie, he’ll soon attract the attention of an existing Summer Bay character.
A fan of the show who watched filming at Palm Beach saw Juliet Godwin, who plays Bree, kissing the new actor, suggesting that we’re just weeks away from a Bree and Remi split and a new romance for the Summer Bay doctor.
The as-yet-unknown character is played by Perth-born actor Mahesh Jadu, who previously played recurring character Dr Doug Harris in Neighbours between 2010 and 2011, and Ahmad in the Netflix series Marco Polo.
Mahesh is followed on social media by a number of Home and Away‘s cast and crew, including Juliet Godwin, Jacqui Purvis and Stephanie Panozzo.
Last week’s episodes saw Bree reveal that she had been accepted on a place with Doctors Without Borders, and that her training would start in Belgium within weeks.
This week’s Australian episodes see Bree give Remi an ultimatum. Could that be paving the way for a Bree and Remi split, leaving her free to explore a new relationship with Summer Bay’s newest character when he arrives in the coming weeks?
Stevie makes her debut on Australian screens this Thursday 29th February, and UK viewers will see her for the first time in late April.
