Lynne McGranger has officially bowed out of her role as Summer Bay resident Irene Roberts.

Actress Lynne, 72, joined Home and Away in 1993 in a guest role before she became a fan-favourite and permanent member of the cast.

While Lynne has filmed her final scenes, fans will still get to enjoy Irene on screen for another couple of months.

Reflecting on her time on Home and Away, she said: “I’ve had the ride of my life.

“And I love each and every one of you so much: The cast – Ray, Georgie, Emily, Shane, Ada, James, all the youngins.

“The art department, the writers, everybody – there’s so many unsung heroes. This show is made up of so many parts.

“You’re all amazing, and it’s been my great privilege to work with each and every one of you.

“I’m touched, I’m humbled and I’m so honored. Thank you so much.”

Home and Away have yet to reveal Irene’s exit storyline – but have teased it’s going to be “emotional”.
