Following a jaw-dropping death twist this week, Home and Away's latest star to exit the show has taken to social media to pay tribute to their time on the soap.
Airing in Australia yesterday (January 27), the 2020 season premiere saw Robbo Shaw (Jake Ryan) die following a massive crash, just when viewers thought he was safe and soon to be reunited with his loved ones.
It came after treacherous policeman Scott – appearing to have a change of heart after holding Robbo at gunpoint – was driving Robbo to check on Jasmine amid the hostage situation at the hospital.

However, Scott soon began to panic about what he was doing, and as the duo wrestled for control of the car, it was driven off the road and Robbo later died from his injuries.
