1993 was Home And Away's 6th year in production. This year saw the departure of long running characters like Sophie Simpson and more importantly, Bobby Marshall in August, which was on of the major highlights of the year. Other major storylines included baby Dale Ross's cot death and the start of the Shane Parrish and Angel Brooks romance, the best Australian soap romance since Scott and Charlene.
New arrivals included the permanent return of Irene Roberts played by Lynne McGranger instead of Jacqy Phillips.
Andrew Howie was Exec Producer throughout this year.
