Home And Away 8764 Episode 5th August 2026

 

Tomorrow’s episode sees the arrival of Zane Talbot, Home and Away‘s newest character – here’s all we know about him so far.

 

A promo after tonight’s Australian episode of Home and Away previewed the arrival of Zane, played by actor and artist Angus McColl. Thanks to filming being spotted by fans, we already know a few things about the newcomer even before his first scenes air.

Teaser spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that “an ex-con arrives in the Bay,” and that ex-con is now revealed to be Zane, who’s already got an intriguing connection to Marilyn (Emily Symons).

In the new promo, we see Marilyn and Alf at the Surf Club, where Maz introduces Mr Stewart to the new arrival:

I just wanted to introduce you to Zane,” she tells Alf, as text across the promo tells us that “he’s a stranger.”

Heya mate, Alf Stewart” Alf replies cheerily, but it won’t be long until Alf’s impression of the newcomer begins to change.

On Thursday, teaser spoilers tell us that “Alf has reservations about Marilyn’s new friend” as he learns more about his chequered past.

We see Zane arrive at Yabbie Creek police station, where he meets Cash. As Cash asks the new arrival what he can do for him, Zane replies that “I’m on parole, I’m moving here.”

You don’t know him, but he seems to know a lot about you,” the promo’s voiceover tells us, as we see Zane walking into the diner.

As he’s introduced to Leah (Ada Nicodemou), it seems he already knows who she is, greeting her as “the famous Leah”!

“What an honour,” he continues, as Maz introduces him to Leah and John (James Stewart).

You must be Justin,” he adds, shaking Justin’s hand. How does he know so much about our Summer Bay favourites?

“Yeah,” Justin replies cautiously, before Leah asks what everyone in town is thinking: “So how do you know us

At the Surf Club, Marilyn explains to Alf that “Zane’s actually just got out of prison,” prompting a shocked look from Mr Stewart.

Over dinner at Salt with Zane and Marilyn, Alf pulls no punches, asking the new arrival why he did time.

It’s clear that Alf is sceptical of the newcomer, and in a later scene at the diner, Zane tells him: “If I was in your shoes, I wouldn’t want me around either.”

“Should you trust him?” asks the promo’s voiceover.

It seems that Alf’s scepticism of the newcomer will be difficult to overcome, as in the episode airing on Wednesday 12th August, “Alf isn’t ready to let go of Zane’s past.”

However, it seems Leah is more willing to forgive, as she “micromanages her new hire” in the same episode – is Maz about to convince Leah to give Zane a job in the diner?

While we’ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out exactly how Zane and Marilyn know each other, we’ve known about their connection for a number of months, thanks to fans spotting Angus McColl filming with actress Emily Symons at Sydney’s Palm Beach earlier this year.

As the pair walked along the beach, the then unknown character was seen handing Marilyn a large brown envelope, which she proceeded to open.

Maz pulled out and looked at a number of pages, before handing one of the sheets back to the man we now know as Zane. The pair then engaged in a brief conversation, before Zane handed the page back to Marilyn and walks off.

In another scene – filmed later in the day but presumably set to appear earlier on screen – Marilyn walked along the parkland and sat next to the new arrival on the bench overlooking the water.

The pair then sat together, deep in conversation, as Zane held the brown envelope in his hand.

In a scene filmed shortly after, the pair walked up from the beach towards the road, where they posted the intriguing envelope into a postbox.

In late April, Angus was once again seen filming with Emily, suggesting that he’ll be sticking around for at least two months.

Emily Symons isn’t the only character to become close to Zane. In a scene filmed in early March, the R&F Adventure YouTubers saw Kyle Shilling – aka Mali – filming a scene with the new character. Zane character was seen running out of the surf club, with Mali in pursuit.

Mali tried to stop him, telling him that he’s bleeding and that there’s a first aid kit inside, insisting that he help him get cleaned up.

The new arrival was reluctant to accept Mali’s help and seemed to want to get away as quickly as possible.

“I don’t care about that, okay, I’m not gonna call the cops,” Mali was heard saying, and he eventually managed to convince the new arrival to come back inside.

With Zane struggling to escape the shackles of his criminal past, will he feel judged by those around him in Summer Bay?

Watch the scene being filmed on YouTube here.

Angus was later seen filming at the beach alongside Kyle Shilling, suggesting that the new character and Mali are set to grow close.

Despite Zane clearly being in Summer Bay in search of a fresh start, it seems that he’ll soon return to his old ways and won’t get a happy ending. At the end of April, a photo was uploaded to the Home and Away Spoilers & Info group showing Angus’s character being led away by a police officer!

Actor Angus McColl isn’t believed to have been spotted by fans at Palm Beach since the dramatic scenes were filmed in April, suggesting that his arrest is what causes his exit from Summer Bay.

Zane arrives on Australian screens on Wednesday 5th August. UK viewers will meet him just two weeks later on Wednesday 19th August.

In tonight's episode, Peter demanded answers from Lauren about her connection with Mark, with his wife finally coming clean about their dodgy dealings.

EastEnders' Amy to make game-changing confession in Joel attack mystery

 Craig is determined to get answers.

EastEnders’ teens are still living in fear next week, as the search for Joel Marshall’s attacker continues. Copper Craig is on the case, and as he digs for clues he extracts confessions from more than one suspect, including agitated Amy – has he finally solved the crime?

"Everyone had an axe to grind with Joel," begins our EastEnders insider, "so practically all of the adolescents on the Square are looking guilty. Are they all covering for each other, or is one of the group manipulating the situation? Either way, Craig is on a mission, and someone is close to cracking…"

Avani, Amy, Barney, Denzel, Barney, Ricky, Will, Nugget and Lily secretly gather to discuss the latest on Joel. The atmosphere is tense, and some of the gang are clearly concealing their own agendas.

When Craig stumbles upon the guarded group, he reckons they’re up to something. Spooked by the sudden presence of a police officer, the friends swiftly disperse.

Craig sneakily probes Amy, while the schoolgirl herself is shaken by Denzel’s shifty behaviour. But they’re not the only ones arousing suspicion…

"Lily talks in hushed tones to Ricky, but they clam up when Jean arrives," notes our source. "Jean tells Kat she’s worried Lily is withholding information about the assault, then Eve reveals she saw the girl heading into Joel’s house!

Jean drags her granddaughter out as she’s talking to Joel, then sits in when she’s later questioned by Craig – where Lily divulges a new detail about the attack…"

Needing another debrief, Lily, Denzel, Amy and Avani meet at the gaming café, and get a nasty surprise when Joel shows up! Tormented by the mystery of who jumped him, Joel confronts the group, calling them out on their conspiracy of silence.

Meanwhile, nervous Barney tells Zack and Priya about the showdown, so the worried parents – along with Jean – race to break things up before the kids make everything worse.

Jean then shares with Priya and Zack what Lily told Craig the day before, and how it has impacted the investigation. As the grown-ups process this dramatic development, another secret emerges and the teens start to turn on each other.

Amy gets into a row with Jack over the latest twist, then storms off. Kat finds upset Amy and lends a friendly ear, advising her to make amends with her dad. But before Amy gets home, she’s intercepted by inquisitive Craig…

"Amy looks vulnerable, so Craig seizes his chance," teases our insider. "He knows there’s more to this whole thing than anyone is letting on, so he offers Amy a shoulder to cry on. Her defences start to crumble, and she reveals a shocking truth."

What has Amy let slip to Craig? Can he be trusted with her secret? And has her confession closed the case, or blown it wide open again?

Hollyoaks confirms worrying Abigail scenes as new romance plot explodes

 It comes ahead of a harrowing new storyline.

Abigail Matthews is set to be left heartbroken in upcoming Hollyoaks scenes ahead of a harrowing new storyline. The new character was brought into the soap as Dee Dee Hutchinson's drugs counsellor, and soon found herself swept into drama when she hooked up with Cleo McQueen.

Cleo is currently having an affair with Dodger Savage, who is in a relationship with Cleo's cousin Theresa McQueen.

Dodger was left feeling jealous when he caught Cleo and Abigail together, but their sordid affair behind Theresa's back has continued.

In scenes set to air next week, Cleo and Dodger wake up together and realise their relationship is far more than just sex after they spent the night talking.

However, they experience a close call with Theresa when she calls and asks where Cleo is.

Things become more complicated when Cleo runs into Abigail at The Loft and sparks fly, leading to them hooking up once more.

Cleo and Abigail plan to meet up for drinks at The Dog after spending the night together, but when she realises Abigail is smitten, Cleo calls time on their budding romance as she doesn't want to lead her on.

Abigail puts on a brave face in front of Cleo, but she breaks down in the pub bathroom which is overheard by troubled teen Dee Dee.

Later, the youngster also finds Abigail having a breakdown in her car, and at the same time, Cleo admits the truth about what happened between her and Abigail to Dodger.

It comes ahead of a devastating grooming storyline in the soap in which Abigail will abuse her position of power over Dee Dee.

The hard-hitting new story will see Abigail manipulate the grieving teen, striking up a "friendship" with Dee Dee and strengthening their bond when the school term begins in September.

Dee Dee will become attached to Abigail, vulnerable following the death of her mum Diane Hutchinson, with the storyline aiming to raise awareness of the abuse of power within schools.

Hollyoaks has worked with The Derwent Initiative (TDI) and the NSPCC "to ensure this subject is handled with the utmost care and accuracy".
