Walker tipped for more 'H&A' appearances

Home and Away newcomer Matthew Walker may secure a more regular role on the soap, a report has claimed.

Last month, viewers saw Walker make his debut as Aden Jefferies' (Todd Lasance) brother Justin for what was intended to be a one-off guest stint.

Since then, Justin has proved a hit with viewers and some fans are calling for him to set up home in Summer Bay even though Aden is leaving later this year.

A show source told TV Week: "Matthew isn't a permanent cast member at this time, but the bosses are really impressed with his work.

"There's every chance [Justin] could become a recurring character."

Walker previously played student Heath Forbes on the short-lived soap Headland, which was originally commissioned as a Home and Away spinoff before later being reworked as a stand-alone show.
