Home and Away (often abbreviated as H&A) is an Australian television soap opera. It was created by Alan Bateman and commenced broadcast on the Seven Network on 17 January 1988. Bateman came up with the concept of the show during a trip to Kangaroo Point, New South Wales, where he noticed locals were complaining about the construction of a foster home and against the idea of foster children from the city living in the area. The soap opera was initially going to be called Refuge, but the name was changed to the “friendlier” title of Home and Away once production began. The show premiered with a ninety-minute pilot episode (subsequently in re-runs known as Home and Away: The Movie). Since then, each subsequent episode has aired for a duration of twenty-two minutes and Home and Away has become the second longest-running drama series in Australian television. In Australia, it is currently broadcast from Mon-Thur at 7:00 pm.

Indi Walker

Indi arrived in Summer Bay with her parents Sid and Jody and younger brother Dex and was most unimpressed at being forced to move to the small town from the city. She was even less impressed when, within a few hours, Jody had fled back to the city after tiring of Sid’s constant affairs and she and Dex were left with their father, but expressed her approval that Jody had finally discovered the backbone to take a stand. Having managed to get out of school by claiming it didn’t start until the following week, Indi met up with a boy, Rob, at the surf club and managed to get invitations for herself, Dex and some of the other teens to a party on the beach. She briefly flirted with Geoff, earning herself a serve from Nicole, but turned down Rob’s invitation to go somewhere private, saying she didn’t do randoms at parties. Sid quickly realised their deception, collected them from the party and packed them off to school. Despite not getting off to a good start, she invited Nicole along to another party only to watch Nicole write herself off over what was happening with Belle and have to enlist Geoff’s help to look after her. – Proceed to full Biography
