Over the course of the 33 years it’s been on our screens, the not-so-sleepy town of Summer Bay has seen it all. From fires to floods, kidnappings to car crashes.
And this week on Home And Away, there was yet another explosive drama causing shock waves.
When Ryder, played by Lukas Radovich, and Sam Barrett’s character Chloe’s food truck explodes, Summer Bay is rocked by a devastating blast outside the surf club.
In the shocking scene, fans can see bodies lying strewn, bloodied and covered in black dirt.
Some characters are suspicious that the food truck explodes because of an act of sabotage, and a fired-up Ryder accuses Salt owner Mac, played by Emily Weir, of carrying out the devastation.
Sam Frost’s character Jasmine is also caught up in the dangerous blast, and speaking with TV WEEK, she revealed things aren’t looking too good.
“Jasmine goes through a lot,” the actor explained of the aftermath of the explosion.
“She is in hospital for a while, and it’s a bit touch and go,” Sam explained.
Fans of the show will have to wait to see how the events play out, but until then, Sam and her castmates have shared some graphic and bloody behind-the-scenes moments from the explosion shoot.
See the best photos from the filming of the Home and Away explosion.
