Veteran Home & Away star Lynne McGranger has witnessed the introduction and cessation of a fair few cast members over her 30-year-long tenure.
The 70-year-old, who stars as Irene Roberts, is a familiar favourite on the TV soap and, thanks to her behind-the-scenes documentation of filming, she’s revealed some very exciting news in line with upcoming episodes.
WATCH: Lynne McGranger speaks about how much she loves Johnny Ruffo. Article continues after video.
In a recent Instagram post, Lynne shared a fun BTS selfie of herself and Nicholas Cartwright (Cash Newman). Smiling into the camera, another person is seen in the picture with a large kissy-face emoji covering their identity.
“Saturday vibes with Cash and an exciting new character. Coming soon,” she captioned the post.
Upon sharing the happy snap, speculation ensued surrounding who this mystery character may be…
“Exciting new character – I love the sound of that. Hope it’s Flick & Cash’s foster dad Garry,” a commenter wrote.
Others contributed to this theory; “Please can it be Gary in charge of the Police Station? Love to see him as a regular resident of SB,” another wrote.
While some theorise it could be Flick and Cash Newman’s foster father Garry Morrow returning as a series regular, a peek of brown hair suggests otherwise…
Besides, Gary has already appeared in the series, so does this negate him as a “new character”?
Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long until this question is answered with Lynne’s subtle “coming soon” hint.
Accidentally leaked shots of a call sheet and script page on fellow Home & Away star Ada Nicodemou’s Instagram story revealed that four new characters are set to joining the line up in the coming months. While these very well may be guest stars or returning characters, from the looks of it, there is one mysterious surprise character who will be cause quite a bit of excitement.
