Note: This article contains spoilers from Australian-pace Home and Away episodes, which some UK readers may prefer to avoid.
Home and Away teen Bella Nixon will be drawn further into potential danger on Australian screens this week, as a sinister new storyline continues.
The show has started to explore the issue of stranger danger online, as vulnerable Bella (Courtney Miller) has started exchanging messages with an unknown person who seems to have an ulterior motive.
What to Read Next
Recent episodes on air in Australia have seen Bella get to know a man called "Tommy" after initially making contact with him on an internet study forum.
Tommy has already started to show signs that he's manipulating Bella, even convincing her not to move back in with her brother Colby Thorne (Tim Franklin) when she revealed her plans to do so.
The mystery individual has also confessed to lying about his age, telling Bella that he's a 25-year-old teacher and not a younger guy as he originally claimed.
Spoilers for this week's Australian episodes have now revealed that the storyline will be gathering pace.
