The amazing thing about Home and Away (Seven, 7pm) is just how many people are in it. As densely populated as Game of Thrones, but with more people in shorts, it can be hard to keep track of everyone in Summer Bay, especially given how many of them look exactly like each other. Sometimes it's hard to remember whether you're watching Brax and Ash looking for Billie in the outback, or Nate looking for Sophie after she ran away from the hospital, or Ricky talking to Andy about his crush on Hannah, who is being advised to stay away from Andy by Denny. Or maybe it's Ricky talking to Nate about Brax. That's Home and Away for you: whatever its flaws, it's a show with a proud history of having large numbers of people in it.
