fans were thrilled watching when the episode ended with a rather nostalgic moment. While the episodes typically end with a preview of what’s to come, the finale played an extended version of the theme song alongside the closing credits. The iconic theme song, titled ‘Home and Away’, was used in the opening credits for over 5000 episodes from 1988 to 2010.
It was then replaced by an instrumental version for eight years before an eight-second version of the theme song returned in 2018. International broadcasts also began playing a version of the theme song alongside the closing credits in 2018, however, last week marked the first time it’s been used at the end of an episode on Australian TV. Fans took to social media following the recent episode to express their excitement over hearing the theme song, with many demanding that it becomes a permanent part of the show next year.
“Anyone get emotional hearing the theme song? Please bring it back for 2025!” one fan shared, while another added, “Reminds me of the old days”. “Omg the first thing I said to my kids was yes finally the true theme! Bring it back,” a third replied, followed by someone else who said, “It’s not without it”. “I was amazed, and actually a little overwhelmed, to see it play at the end of the season finale in Australia.
I know for timing reasons they can’t show it in Australia because of the ‘next time’ clips. They should just remove the ‘next time’ spoilers and put the theme back in,” a different user suggested. “Was great and a surprise to hear and see the theme song closing credits after almost 20 years.
Hopefully this promo is telling us hints that the full opening titles theme song is back in 2025,” another commented. is and pick up right where it left off, with Justin discovering Cash at the scene of what appears to be a violent crime. Cash had woken up next to Tim, who may or may not be alive, with blood on his hands.
Cash had originally gone to find his ex Eden, who was at a secluded resort with Tim and the rest of the band Lyrik, to warn her that Tim's ex-client Nerida was on the rampage and out for revenge. It was also announced last month that fan favourites and Patrick O'Connor will be in 2025. Channel Seven revealed that the couple will be filming in the Whitsunday region of North Queensland for a “top-secret” storyline that will play out sometime next year.
The show often films 5-6 months in advance, so we could nearly estimate we'll see Ziggy and Dean back on our TVs around March or April..
