Home and Away Spoilers: Will Dean Thompson expose Colby Thorne's criminal past?

Dean threatens to wreck Colby's police career by exposing the truth about the copper's criminal past...

Summer Bay copper Colby may have saved Dean's life during the recent shoot-out with Ava's kidnapper, Boyd Easton. But River Boy, Dean, still hasn't forgiven his former best buddy Colby for leaving him to die after a near-fatal car crash years earlier.

When Dean confronts Colby at the Pier Apartment, Colby tries to explain his actions and how he quit the River Boys to become a policeman so he could try and find his mum and sister who disappeared with his abusive stepdad. But Dean realises he has the power to wreck Colby's career and threatens to reveal all about the copper's criminal past...

Meanwhile, Olivia is quickly beginning to regret inviting Jasmine to move into the Beach House and confides in Ziggy about all of Jasmine's 'annoying' behaviour. But could it be Olivia is secretly jealous of her new house mate? Home and Away continues weekdays at 1:15pm and 6:30pm on Channel 5

Simon has long been a fan of soap operas, and especially loves OVER-THE-TOP plots involving evil twins, hair-pulling catfights and natural disasters. Anyone remember the Sunset Beach earthquake/tidal wave? Or when Krystle Carrington got locked in the attic and replaced by look-a-like Rita in Dynasty?!

Simon has written for a variety of TV and childrens’ magazines/websites including Inside Soap, Nickelodeon, What’s On TV, Radio Times, Metro, Girl Talk, Disney Girl, Toxic! and Digital Spy. 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.

Simon is also co-author of The Treasures Of Coronation Street (Carlton Books)

And the writer and director of (very!) low budget fright flick, Midsummer Night's EVIL and the sequel webisodes series, The Hatchet Woods HORROR.
