A new Home and Away promo has suggested that Holden’s concerning behaviour will ramp up in the weeks ahead as he refuses to leave Lacey alone.

The 2025 Season Finale – which aired on Australian screens in November and will air in the UK later this week – introduced us to new character Holden Dwyer, played by former Neighbours star Lach Millar.

Holden and his friend Isaac (Jordan Dulieu) were on the train heading to Off the Rails music festival before it derailed, leaving numerous Summer Bay favourites in danger.

Sadly for Holden, his flirtatious friend Isaac died in the incident, while Lacey’s (Sophea Pennington) sister Jo (Maddison Brown) was also badly hurt in the derailment, after part of the roof of the train collapsed on top of her.

Holden and Lacey had a couple of brief interactions on the train, both going for the last Mimosa as drinks were being served, before later awkwardly brushing past each other in one of the narrow corridors between carriages.
