Home and Away Shocker: Townsend’s Mistake Could Set Nerida Free!
- Posted on 12 March, 2025
The investigation into Tim Russell’s brutal attack takes a dramatic turn next week on Home and Away, and a crucial mistake could allow Nerida Mullins to escape justice. Newcomer DS Mark Townsend, played by Neighbours alum Craig Hall, succumbs to pressure at work and calls Nerida in for questioning. However, his colleague Rose Delaney is furious at his mishandling of the case.
Townsend was brought in to lead the investigation into the violent assault at Lyric’s rehearsal retreat, but despite several clues pointing toward Nerida, he remains fixated on the possibility that Cash Newman is the true culprit. Even when Cash experiences a flashback and finally remembers that Nerida was the attacker, his desperate pleas fall on deaf ears as Townsend refuses to believe him.
Next week, Rose clashes with Townsend, urging him to take a broader approach rather than zeroing in on one suspect. Reluctantly, Townsend agrees to question Nerida but makes a critical blunder—choosing to treat her as a witness rather than a suspect. This soft approach frustrates Rose, as Townsend fails to push Nerida on her past conflicts with Tim or the threats she made against him.
When Nerida’s alibi holds up, Townsend prematurely ends the interview, ignoring Rose’s attempts to press for tougher questioning. With his focus still set on building a case against Cash, he might be making the biggest mistake of his career.
Could Townsend’s misjudgment allow Nerida to walk free despite her involvement in the attack? With time running out, will Rose be able to expose the truth before it’s too late? Don’t miss these explosive episodes airing Tuesday, March 18, on Home and Away!
