1. Irene Roberts (1992, 1993- )
Played by Jacqui Phillips and Lynne McGranger
An Aussie battler, a larrikin, a motherly figure
in the lives of many young people, but at times
not the best mother to her own children. Irene
has become the heart and soul of Summer Bay.
She is one of the people to turn to when you
need help, and she is the first to stand up
for what is just. The character of Irene has
come a long way in her 12 years on “Home and
Away”. She started out as the alcoholic mother
of Finlay and Damien Roberts, two of Pippa and
Michael’s foster children. But then she not
only fought her alcoholism, but she too became
a “mum” to many others, like Pippa had her own
children. The love that Irene has for all of
those that have lived with her at some stage
of their lives is incredible. However, she is
no walkover. If Irene feels strongly enough
about something, she will fight to ensure it
is so, despite the costs. Just recently she
has stood up to Barry Hyde at the school, telling
him to stick his job. She refused to be compromised
by money when Ian Osbourne tried to buy his
way into Tasha’s life. Irene is the ultimate
friend, the ultimate care giver, and the ultimate
character.
