Corriedale's mystery woman Jodie will be paying a visit to Weatherfield tomorrow

 Are they in danger?

Corriedale's mystery woman Jodie will be paying a visit to Weatherfield tomorrow, following her brief appearance in the crossover. As the newcomer makes a strange bee-line for the Platts, could Shona and her baby be in danger?

Tonight's dramatic crossover saw Jodie making her on-screen debut amid a horrifying crash on a remote road. The incident quickly escalated to a multi-vehicle pile-up, with a number of casualties from Weatherfield and Emmerdale.

As characters from both soaps united to help the injured, an approaching van suddenly came to a stop. Viewers then saw a terrified Jodie tied up in the back of the vehicle, which was being driven by returning Emmerdale character Graham Foster. She fled from the vehicle and was injured during her escape, but she was soon rescued by Kit Green.

Meanwhile, Shona found herself in a perilous situation while she and David were trapped in the fiery collision. If that wasn't scary enough, pregnant Shona feared she was going into early labour and was rushed to Hotten General Hospital - with the fate of her unborn baby left up in the air.

In Weatherfield, the Platts face more heartbreak when their consultant surgeon is held up ahead of the vital operation. While they anxiously await news, Jodie appears in Shona's room with a stolen teddy bear.

In the corridor, Jodie's concerning behaviour continues as she corners David with questions about baby Harper. She lurks eerily nearby while the new parents enjoy some time with their newborn daughter.

Later, David and Shona share photos of Harper with their family, but the moment is interrupted by the newcomer who bursts into the room. How will the Platts react? And why is Jodie stalking them?

Bec and Lleyton Hewitt's daughter Mia, 20, shows off her fit bikini body as she enjoys a romantic day at Bondi Beach with rocker boyfriend Vanda Erich

 Bec and Lleyton Hewitt's daughter Mia turned heads at Bondi Beach on Monday as she enjoyed a swim with her rocker partner Vanda Erich.

Mia, who is one half of the musical duo Father's Favourite, showed off her fit physique in a light blue two-piece bikini featuring a playful floral pattern.

The swimsuit featured a classic triangle bikini top, while the matching high-cut bikini bottoms showed off Mia's tanned and toned legs.

Vanda, meanwhile, opted to go shirtless for the beach date, wearing a pair of plain black board shorts.

The rocker, who sings for Sydney-based indie band Liquid Zoo, accessorised with a chain-link bracelet around his wrist. 

The couple looked to be having a great day out, happily chatting as they strode across the sand.

The pair also put on a public display of affection, with Mia floating in the crystal-clear water as she wrapped an arm around her beau's neck.

After their plunge, the couple retired to their towels and were happy to while away a few hours chatting and working on their tans.          

When she isn't soaking up the sun, Mia can be found on stage, performing alongside Chèrise Combrink in bohemian folk duo Father's Favourite.

Mia's band performed their first gig back in August 2024, and her former Home and Away star mum Bec is reportedly keen to steer her in the right musical direction.

While she is best known for playing Home and Away fan favourite Hailey Smith Lawson from 1998 to 2005, the actress also had a brief pop career.

On the back of her television fame, Bec released an eponymous solo album in 2002, and her debut single All Seats Taken hit number 10 on the ARIA chart.

Her album, however, was met with mixed reviews and her music career effectively came to an end in 2004 when she parted ways with label Warner Music.

Mia proved that good genes run in the family 

Vanda, meanwhile, opted to go shirtless for the beach date, wearing a pair of plain black board shorts 

A source told New Idea that Bec is keen to ensure that her daughter avoids the pitfalls that can befall new and inexperienced artists.

'Bec knows how to deal with bad people, dodgy managers, and doesn't want Mia making some of the mistakes she made early in her career, like being too optimistic about certain jobs,' they said.

The insider added that while music is Mia's current consuming passion, she hasn't ruled out a career in front of the camera, like her actress mum.

'Mia is very savvy. She knows you can't just be good at one thing and that entering the music industry will ultimately see her having to create social media content and putting herself forward,' they said.

'Ultimately, that can lead to more work like modelling, acting and even presenting.

'Bec just wants Mia to be happy and working on a career that is going to sustain her.'

Mia's parents, tennis champion Lleyton and singer Bec, met on the tennis court for a charity game at the Starlight Cup back in 1999.

The couple didn't reconnect until a few years later and finally met up in person in 2005, before getting engaged after a whirlwind romance that lasted six weeks.

As well as singer Mia, they also share another daughter Ava, 15, and son Cruz, 17.

Mackenzie turns to Tane after Levi's shock arrest

  The rift between Mac and Levi widens…

Mackenzie Booth returns to Summer Bay for an emotional showdown next week, after learning that her partner Levi Fowler has been arrested. With Levi's behaviour clearly spiralling out of control, will this make things between him and Mackenzie even worse?

Upcoming scenes see Levi lose his composure at work by attacking a troublesome patient. He's forced to face the consequences of his actions when policeman Cash Newman turns up to arrest him, which risks leaving his medical career in tatters.

Mackenzie arrives back from her short trip to Queensland after hearing that Levi is in disgrace over his actions.

She's far from impressed over the fiasco and makes it known, with a series of short responses to everything he says.

Levi and Mackenzie are both still lamenting after the awful misfortune of their infant," our Domestic and Absent source clarifies. "Levi tries to clarify that his strange conduct was somewhat caused by Mac's nonappearance from the Cove, as he didn't have anybody around to incline on.

"This doesn't go down well with Mac at all, as she feels that Levi is unreasonably putting all of the fault on her. As distant as she's concerned, Levi is completely mindful for his claim actions."

The environment between the couple as it were gets more awful when Mac figures it out that her near companion Tane Parata wasn't told approximately her premature delivery. Mac blames Levi of falling flat to do the one thing he'd guaranteed to – telling everybody to save her the pain.

Levi contends that he didn't indeed know whether he was still in a relationship with Mac at that point, as she'd ended up so closed-off and he couldn't get through to her in Queensland. With the circumstance so tense, they're not able to resolve anything.

Mac ends up turning to Tane for a heart-to-heart instead, feeling like he's the main person she can speak to without facing any judgement. However, she soon goes a step further by asking Tane whether she can stay at his place for the night, as she can't face Levi.

"Levi's heartbroken when Mac doesn't come home," our insider adds. "Mac is completely honest with him about how she stayed with Tane, but it's painful for Levi to realise that she'd prefer to talk through her grief with other people rather than him.

"In the end, Levi lays it all on the line – insisting that being a dad matters far less to him than being with Mac. In fact, none of it means anything to him if he's not in a relationship with Mac…"

Will Levi reach an emotional breakthrough with Mac after being so honest?

Home and Away's Leah Patterson risks a furious backlash next week ..

 She's going too far, but where will this end?

Domestic and Away's Leah Patterson dangers a incensed backfire following week as she proceeds to cross the line in her quarrel with Lacey Mill operator. As Leah denies to back down from faulting Lacey for Theo Poulos's passing, she may be beginning to lose sensitivity from those around her.

The progressing pressure inclines up however once more when Leah peruses a sensationalized daily paper article, which paints Lacey as a saint for her activities on the night of Theo's passing. Lacey gets tall commend for bringing degenerate Councilor Wendell to equity, but Theo is as it were specified once.

Leah can't accept that Theo has been sidelined in the article, in spite of losing his life on that game changing evening," our Domestic and Absent source clarifies. "Of course, Lacey had nothing to do with the harsh article, but Leah can't offer assistance expecting the most noticeably awful around her at each opportunity.

"Before long, Leah has persuaded herself that Lacey set up the article to make herself see great. She promises to talk her intellect, in spite of her spouse Justin caution that it's not a great thought."

When Lacey sees the article for herself, she's shocked that it was even published after she'd asked the journalist to leave her alone.

Lacey tries to explain this when Leah angrily berates her, but is left disappointed when her new enemy stubbornly refuses to listen.

"Leah continues to rant about Lacey being the reason for Theo's death," our insider continues. "She's fixated on her belief that the tragedy would never have happened if Lacey hadn't taken such a big risk to bring down Wendell.

"Fortunately, Lacey's dad David is on hand to break up the ugly showdown and move Leah away."
