Of course not! It’s just that one has come up on the wheel of misfortune they use - remember they also have fires, explosions, robberies, random assaults and car hit and runs!
You forgot hostage situations.

Home and Away has been forced to extended its mid-year production break due to the ongoing COVID situation in Sydney.
Cast and crew had already been on a planned two-week shutdown break.
Down to the tyre
Please remain seated, Australia’s #1 drama returns Monday, 9 August
Strap yourself in – Australia’s #1 drama, Home and Away, returns with all the action 7.00pm Monday, 9 August.
After last night’s gripping mid-season final, three lives are left hanging in the balance.
With Dean’s (Patrick O’Connor) car teetering on the edge of a cliff, Nikau (Kawakawa Fox-Reo) rouses after being thrown from the wreckage. He uses every bit of strength within him to get to the top of the hill to see if he can find help, but misses a passing car.
Mia (Anna Samson) tries to shake Dean awake but every time she moves, the car wobbles, threatening to go over the cliff at any moment.
Dr. Logan Bennett (Harley Bonner) from the Medical Response Unit comes to the rescue, but it’s not looking good for Dean.
In the chaos, Bella (Courtney Miller) worries it’s too late to tell Nikau how she truly feels.
After swearing to Tane (Ethan Browne) that she and Dean are done for good, Ziggy (Sophie Dillman) is confronted by the fact that Dean might not survive, leaving her scared she might lose him for good.
Will Dean make it out alive? Will Bella confess before it’s too late?

Summer Bay’s scorching return
Australia’s #1 drama is back 7.00pm Monday, 9 August
Try to stay cool when Australia’s #1 drama, Home and Away , heats up with all-new unforgettable moments.
There is so much more in store for 2021, with happily ever afters, heartbreak and new beginnings just over the horizon.
Joining the established cast is Harley Bonner ( Neighbours ) and Jacqui Purvis ( Neighbours ).
Harley Bonner stars as Dr. Logan Bennett, a fully-qualified trauma surgeon who has seen and done a lot in life and is looking for a change of pace. The new doctor in town doesn’t waste time and catches the eye of Salt restaurant owner, Mackenzie Booth (Emily Weir).
Jacqui Purvis joins as Felicity Newman, a firecracker with an abundance of confidence and no filter – which can get her into a lot of trouble. Finding herself on top of a bar dancing C oyote Ugly- style, Felicity’s antics end up attracting the attention of Tane Parata (Ethan Browne).
Another Summer Bay wedding is around the corner with the doctors, Tori (Penny McNamee) and Christian (Ditch Davey), finally tying the knot.
Romance sizzles between Jasmine (Sam Frost) and new cop Cash (Nicholas Cartwright).
But it may not be a happy ending for all, as Dean (Patrick O’Connor), Mia (Anna Samson) and Nikau (Kawakawa Fox-Reo) struggle to survive in a tragic cliff-hanging accident.

The one that got away
It could have been a love story for the ages, but is it too late for one of the Bay’s iconic couples? Answers are on the way when Home and Away returns at 7.00pm Monday, 9 August.
It all started with a kiss in the outback for former couple Ziggy (Sophie Dillman) and Dean (Patrick O’Connor), but after Ziggy discovered the truth about Dean’s involvement in Ross Nixon’s murder, things ended in heartbreak.
While the couple went their separate ways, their bond still remained.
Dean’s ex Amber (Maddy Jevic) and young son, Jai (River Jarvis), returned while Ziggy began a new romance with Tane (Ethan Browne). But after a kiss, Ziggy and Dean’s story might just have a few pages left.
With Ziggy in a relationship with another man, her and Dean’s kiss at the exhibition is bound to have consequences. Now Dean is involved in a huge car accident, Ziggy’s chance to tell him how she feels is slipping through her fingers.
Will this story end as a Greek tragedy or grand romance? Find out when Australia’s #1 drama, Home and Away , returns at 7.00pm Monday, 9 August.

What a terrific opening scene, displaying the words “Home” “and” “Away” on separate scenes with previous footage in between and dramatic music playing!
On another note, is anyone else finding it really hard to get invested in Mia, and also Mia and Ari’s relationship? They both feel like outsiders compared to the rest of the Bay.

Some photos have been circulating online from the crash scene and it’s amazing how the production team pulled it all together. Clearly a lot of money has gone into this storyline and they’ve done a really good job with it.
The kangaroo looked like CGI.
It was someone lying on the road!

The car on the edge of the cliff looked CGI too.

Mods, pls delete if these are not allowed. These shots are on multiple sites and I believe they were release by the show.

I meant just before they swerved when they look out and see a kangaroo hopping past.
I mean obviously it has to be computer generated.

Interesting. I only saw the bit at the end of the episode.
I thought they might have filmed it in a paddock and added a CGI cliff. Didn’t think it would have been done in a studio with video screens.
