Home and Away : Christmas in Summer Bay – Episode 4 Preview
Another week, another episode of the Home and Away Christmas special – ‘Christmas in Summer Bay‘.
For the past 3 weeks, streaming services 7Plus and My5 have been airing behind the scenes specials, with the cast of the show swapping stories, presents, and reliving memories of past storylines.
We started in Summer Bay House, then the Morgan house, before last week saw ex-Home and Away actor Jason Smith head to the flat above the Pier Diner to chat to Colby, Bella, Dean and Mackenzie.This week in the fourth instalment, Jason heads to the Surf Club to chat to some of the Astoni family and friends. We start with Rohan Nichol (Ben Astoni), Sophie Dillman (Ziggy Astoni) and Patrick O’Connor (Dean Thompson), for a beach-themed Christmas celebration.
Rohan and Sophie discuss the turbulent three years that the Astoni family have faced since moving to Summer Bay
The Astoni family have been on our screens since 2017, and have had a turbulent time in the Bay ever since.
Whether it’s been Maggie’s battle with cancer, Ben’s recent fight with depression after being caught up in a drug smuggling operation, or Ziggy’s emotional turmoil after being cheated on by first Jarrod and then Brody Morgan, they’re all due a relaxing Christmas after a tough few years.
It’s a very festive celebration as the Surf Club get decked out with full Christmas decorations
Rohan, Sophie and Patrick will discuss all of the emotional trials and tribulations that they’ve been through, and will also explore the relationship between Ziggy and Dean.
The two got together after Ziggy’s breakup with Brody, and Dean has cemented himself as a member of the extended Astoni family, first working for Ben’s Boards, and later employing Ben as an instructor in his surf business.
Recently, Australian viewers will have seen the pair go through their own stresses as Ziggy’s new job puts distance between the pair both physically and emotionally.
Later, the trio will be joined by two other Surf Club regulars, as Shane Withington (John Palmer) and Lukas Radovich (Ryder Jackson) join them for a chat.
The five will discuss “what makes friendships in Summer Bay such an important and integral part of the Home and Away tapestry“.
