Home and Away star takes fans behind-the-scenes
Ada Nicodemou has given fans a behind-the-scenes look at what happens on the set of Home and Away.
The video, posted on Instagram, showed a day in the life of her character Leah Patterson, and it started off with Ada getting her hair and make up done.
“Now in the makeup chair!” a visibly excited Ada exclaimed, to which her make up artist replied, “Let’s do it, yay!”
A bare-faced Ada explained to fans that she also rehearses her lines while getting her make up done, before the clip cuts to a video of her arriving on set, wearing dark sunglasses and a colourful jacket.
“So, I just got to the garage set now, and I’m gonna do my first scene!” she explained, before co-star James Stewart, who plays Justin Morgan popped in to say hello.
“Don’t I love this set?” Ada said sarcastically, which prompted a grin from her co-star who added: “Well, no, the garage is not really Ada’s favourite set, but the rest of us like it!”
The clip then cuts to the second set of the day outside the Summer Bay House, where she introduced director Chris Martin Jones and another crew member, Tony Gardiner.
She also showed a few clips of her filming a scene with Emily Symons, who plays Marilyn Chambers on the show.
“So this scene is with the beautiful Em, it’s just a nice two-hander,” she said, as Emily smiled for the camera.
However, it's not always sunshine and rainbows on set, when the day suddenly transformed into a grim one as Ada panned the camera around a rainy set.
"Hopefully we can shoot,” she said, now dressed in a thick jacket which was very different to her previously bright orange tank-top.
Unfortunately, because of the dreary weather the rest of the day's filming was cancelled.
“Okay, so let’s just say we didn’t finish the shoot, there’s thunderstorms and lightning ... surely that’s a song," she jokingly concluded, in reference to the iconic Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody.
“Um, so yeah, it’s a wrap. It’s a wrap!”
Fans were obsessed with the behind-the-scenes content.
“Thank you, wow, you really all work together wonderfully, thank you for sharing this Ada,” wrote one fan.
“Aweeee love Home & Away!! You guys are the best," commented another.
“Loved this!! Thank you for sharing lovely,” wrote a third.
One curious fan questioned why they don't film and work with the weather when it is raining, to which Ada replied: “They always have to give the impression it’s always summer in Summer Bay lol.”
