Home and Away, Roo Stewart, Leah Patterson, Irene Roberts

With her court case looming, Irene Roberts is alarmed when her past returns to haunt her on Home and Away. Will she do a runner from the Bay?

With her day in court approaching, Irene Roberts (played by Lynne McGranger) is trying to keep it together on Home and Away (1:15pm/6:00pm on Channel 5, see our TV Guide for full listings), even though she's dreading the thought she could still be sent to prison for attacking teenager Bella Nixon's (Courtney Miller) online stalker, Tommy.

Leah Patterson (Ada Nicodemou) and Roo Stewart (Georgie Parker) continue to rally around Irene, and encourage her to read some of the positive comments of support on Leah's vlog.

However, when Irene notices some nasty comments on the vlog, condeming Irene over what she did to Tommy, she's shocked.

But there's MORE...

Irene Roberts makes a SHOCK discovery online on Home and Away...

A news reporter has dug up some dirt on Irene, and she's horrified to see details of her past battle with alcohol and troubled relationship with her children in an online news article.

Elsewhere, Ryder Jackson (Lukas Radovich) is shocked when he hears about his ex-girlfriend Raffy Morrison's (Olivia Deeble) close brush with death last week, when the teenager had an epileptic seizure while swimming in the sea.
