Felicity Newman, a beloved character on Home and Away, is depicted imprisoned inside a burning automobile in the trailers for the upcoming season.
While the actress Jacqui Purvis is keeping quiet about the result, she did tell Yahoo! Lifestyle that if necessary, she’d love to leave the show with a bang.
“[I]’d want to be eliminated…” She told the publication, “I want a really dramatic death, like a really, intense, horrible, like everyone’s crying death.”
When Jacqui was subsequently asked in an interview how long she intended to stay in Summer Bay, she quickly sidestepped the question.
Who knows, she slyly retorted.
Being an actor, she said, “I mean, you get offered this role, this opportunity, and it’s incredible…you’re performing every day, which is an actor’s dream, and having a continuous employment is incredibly rare in this field.” She continued.
Felicity’s on-screen nuptials to Ethan Browne’s Tane, who she married this year, were one of the major difficulties Jacqui encountered.
Because it’s such an important event in someone’s life and I’ve never been married before, she added, “It felt cool, but also incredibly bizarre.”
I felt as though I had nothing to relate to. I don’t have any references at my disposal. Therefore, I was attempting to determine how you might behave in a wedding.
Jacqui had a warm welcome when she arrived in Summer Bay playing the challenging part of Felicity, police constable Cash Newman’s sister.
Since then, authors have included her in a variety of plots, from being a victim of an abduction to having the safety of her life threatened following a terrible car accident.
Channel Seven will air Home and Away again in the coming year.
