Colby desperately tries to convince Bella he is her long-lost big brother and has been looking for her all this time. But Bella's convinced he and Dean are a couple of dodgy dudes and is determined to escape from them.

Determined to get Bella away from their murderous stepdad Ross Nixon, will policeman Colby resort to kidnapping his own sister to get Bella to safety back in Summer Bay?

Meanwhile, back in the Bay, Colby's fiancée Chelsea Campbell is alarmed when she realises he and Dean have gone in search of killer Ross instead of leaving it to the police homicide team.

However, friend Willow Harris attempts to put Chelsea's mind at ease and there's good news when Chelsea discovers Willow and Dean are friends again, which means Willow no longer has to avoid him and can be Chelsea's bridesmaid at her forthcoming wedding. Hurrah!

Can no-nonsense Alf Stewart talk some sense into John and convince him to give Ben a chance?

He has reported LIVE from the red carpet at The British Soap Awards interviewing glammed-up stars from soapland, and hosted a Facebook LIVE session for Metro with Home and Away legend Ray Meagher (Alf "Stone the flamin' crows!" Stewart) to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Aussie soap.
