He is rushed to hospital...
Home and Away’s Sargeant David Langham is the victim of a life-threatening shooting next week – and it’s his own protégée Richie Brezniak who pulls the trigger! Will David survive his brutal injury?
As more thefts continue to sweep the Bay, David is intent on finding the perpetrator – and when his daughter Lacey’s purse is stolen, she gives him a lead which allows him to link her attacker to the grocery store break-in.
However, when they arrive, a woman claims that she bought the van from a shifty salesman, and David fears he has the wrong person – until her boyfriend emerges and gets violent!
Things get dangerous fast when the mysterious aggressor approaches David and Richie," says our Summer Bay spy. "Panicked Richie pulls his gun out, and although David firmly demands that he stand down, he prepares to open fire on the man.
"In a tragic twist though, David steps into the bullet’s path as Richie pulls the trigger – and is the one who winds up wounded."
Having taken a bullet to the abdomen, David bleeds out on the ground as guilty Richie attempts to save his superior’s life. When Cash arrives at the scene, Richie breaks down and confesses to shooting David by mistake – leading furious Cash to take him in for immediate questioning!
"He’s so distraught that he refuses to leave the station as he’s terrified that it’ll be his last time there as an officer, so Cash is forced to send him home for counselling…"
Arriving at the hospital, unconscious David is rushed through to the ED in critical condition, where he’s attended to by new doctor Amelia Carlisle.
"Newcomer Dr Carlisle keeps calm under pressure, but after administering three rounds of adrenalin, she admits that she’ll have to declare the Sarge dead if he doesn’t wake up soon," explains our insider.
"Luckily, Amelia manages to revive him but tells his daughters that with the bullet still inside him, he isn’t out of the woods yet."
When David’s blood pressure drops, Amelia prepares to perform emergency surgery to remove the stray bullet. Can she save David’s life, or could this be the end for the courageous Sargeant?
Popular Hobart radio hosts Dan Taylor and Christie Hayes have announced they will be returning to the airwaves, just days after their shock axing.
On Monday, the Home and Away star and her co-host revealed they will be launching a daily podcast, broadcasting from a caravan in New Norfolk, after Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) cut a string of regional shows.
'You asked, we listened: After thousands of messages, we're bringing a new show back. And now we're broadcasting from a caravan in the backyard,' they wrote.
'We're starting one because we don't have jobs,' Taylor told listeners in the first episode.
'We lost our gigs. I mean, we're literally sitting in an effing caravan,' Hayes said.
The actress confessed that the caravan was 'freezing cold' while her co-star admitted that he 'could not feel his feet' during the recording.
The pair dominated the airwaves and were Hobart's number one breakfast show with 21.2% audience share in last year's survey.
'Yes, we got made redundant. Yes, it hurt and it ripped our hearts out. But still, at the end of the day, what really matters is your family and your friends,' Hayes said.
'We have air in our lungs, now we've got a mic. We're going to keep this going … and I'm excited about where we're going to go.'
Dan said it was the third time in his radio career he was made redundant.
'You can do everything in your power to be the best there is and you can still lose,' he said.
The pair were told the devastating news on June 17, before sharing it with listeners not long after.
In a social media post, Hayes said they were 'devastated and confused' by the news.
'#1 Breakfast Show, years of laughter as best friends, many national headlines, and the privilege of using our microphone to advocate for autism, IVF and fertility, women's safety, going head-to-head with the Prime Minister plus so much more,' she wrote on Instagram.
We truly cared, we are so thankful to our incredible spouses and our producer Matt, and we are devastated (and confused!) that Dan & Christie is coming to an end.
'We love our audience and hope you'll follow us into whatever comes next.
'To every friend of our show who laughed with us, cried with us, trusted us, confided in us and loved us, we love you right back. Thanks for listening.'
Upon learning the news, fans were quick to take to social media to express their disappointment.
'I'm incredibly devastated. You and @danthetoolmantaylor are the best. Truly feeling for you both today. We will be watching from the sidelines now but radio won't be the same,' one fan commented.
A second said it was a 'terrible decision', adding: 'Losing great local talent. Someone snap these two up!'
Who will she believe?
EastEnders' Honey Mitchell is humiliated this week when Bea Pollard publicly accuses Billy of trying to seduce her. Viewers know that spiteful Bea is lying to break the couple up, but will Honey believe the 'evidence' presented to her?
Things have been rocky between Billy and Honey in recent episodes, following an awkward date that left Honey feeling undesirable. Bea decided to capitalise on the situation, setting up a fake dating profile for Billy and using an AI generator to manipulate his voice.
Later, Bea storms into The Vic and reveals Phil's offer, claiming Billy put him up to it. But before Billy can explain, she accuses him of trying to sleep with her, and plays a horrified Honey the AI audio recording of his voice as 'proof'.
This is the worst-case scenario that anyone could be put in," said Emma Barton, who plays Honey. "It's so embarrassing for Honey, and it's humiliating as she feels she has been let down by the two closest people to her. Her husband, and what she believes is her best friend.
"She's thinking, 'why on earth would you announce this in a public place', and secondly, she's thinking ‘what is going on?!' Her world has come crashing down in an instant, and she doesn’t know what to do."
"As they've just come off the back of a failed date, and they haven't had this closeness in their relationship, and that togetherness, she starts to think that he might have gone looking elsewhere," she said.
She added: "I think Honey feels that Bea is really misunderstood, and I think Honey can relate to that. A lot of people throughout Honey's life have always underestimated her, and thought she was a bit silly. Honey's always had to fight for approval in some ways.
"I think Honey sees some similarities in Bea, and although everyone has such strong opinions of Bea, Honey sees the good, or rather wants to see the good in her. I think she thinks everyone treats Bea unfairly."
