Episode 5011

5:30pm - Monday, March 15 on TV 3

Even though drama is never far away for the residents of Summer Bay, the last few weeks have seen the seaside town rocked by bigger waves than usual. Home and Away continues on Monday, March 15th at 5:30pm on 3.

Since the arrival of Romeo's (Luke Mitchell) sister Mink (Matylda Buczko), audiences have been introduced to a feisty, flirtatious and opinionated character like no other in Home and Away's history.

"I immediately felt really comfortable with her character, she's very feisty, and mischievous," the young actress responsible for bringing Mink to life explains to Home and Away Official Site.

Despite Mink's somewhat unconventional ways, like most actors, Buczko says she positively identifies with her character. "I don't go to quite the same lengths as Mink," she says.

Nicole (Tessa James), Aden (Todd Lasance), Miles (Josh Quong Tart), Geoff (Lincoln Lewis) and all the other Summer Bay favourites are returning to our screens for another action-packed series when Home and Away premieres its 2010 season on Monday, February 1st at 5:30pm on 3.

According to series producer Cameron Welsh, Home and Away fans can expect much lighter storylines in the 2010 season. Welsh explains that the new year will bring a 'better balance' of drama and fun to Summer Bay.

"There is unquestionably a shift in tone for the 2010 season," Welsh told Yahoo 7 TV.

"The storylines are, on the whole, lighter and will be more character-driven. And, yes, there will be a focus on relationships, among other themes."

Here's a quick summary of what happened tonight on Home and Away:

Rachel discovers Tony's business isn't doing well but is supportive and takes on extra shifts. Charlie is unhappy that Ruby didn't tell her about going to hospital but Ruby doesn't like her fussing. Leah discovers VJ is being bullied by Riley.

5:30pm - Friday, December 18 on TV 3

It's been an emotional year on Home and Away, with Summer Bay favourite Belle (Jessica Tovey) losing her battle with cancer, Hugo's (Bernard Curry) arrival in the Bay, and the many troubled romances of the town's residents.

Now Home and Away is wrapping up for the holidays with another action-packed week, screening Monday, December 14th to Friday, December 18th at 5:30pm on 3, but what's in store for the much too often unlucky residents of Summer Bay in this unmissable finale?

This week, Rachel (Amy Mathews) is shocked to discover that there's no money in her savings account and seeks some answers from Tony (Jon Sivewright). He's a little cagy and tells her that he needed to juggle some money between accounts to pay staff wages and that he'd sort things out.

Curious, Rachel does some digging, but is she prepared for what she's about to discover?
