Home and Away 2020 finale: Fans are left FURIOUS over ‘boring’ episode

Home and Away viewers are usually left breathless after watching a shocking death or other major event take place during the season finale.

But fans were feeling disappointed on Monday night after Channel Seven delivered a bland episode without any big pay-off or dramatic cliffhanger.

Hundreds of viewers flocked to Twitter to vent their frustrations, with one writing: ‘What a waste of an hour. Boring for a finale.’

‘Most uneventful season finale ever. No cliffhanger, that was such a 2020 way of finishing,’ another commented.

‘That was 90 minutes I will never get back,’ a third added.

Monday’s episode promised to end on a heart-stopping cliffhanger, but instead introduced several new residents and teased a potential romance. 

The much-anticipated episode saw Sam Frost’s character, Jasmine, have a chance encounter with an old flame, Lewis, played by Luke Arnold. 

Colby (Tim Franklin) was sentenced to 25 years in prison after pleading guilty to Ross Nixon’s murder after Witness X’s betrayal, but that still wasn’t enough to excite fans.

‘That was by far the worst season finale I’ve ever f**king seen. I feel like I just wasted an hour and a half,’ tweeted one upset viewer. 

Meanwhile, another suggested that the two-minute teaser for next year’s season was more exciting than the entire 90-minute special. 

During a preview for the 2021 series, viewers were surprised to see original Summer Bay bad boy Heath Braxton, played by Dan Ewing.

Dan first appeared on Home and Away as Rueben Humpheries in 2007. 

He joined the show as Heath in 2010, but left four years later. 

His character is one of the River Boys, a gang made up of brothers Darryl ‘Brax’ Braxton, Casey Braxton, Kyle Braxton and their associates.
