Aussie actress Rachael Carpani has officially arrived in Summer Bay and is set to cause a stir with her ‘villain’ arc.
Former McLeod’s Daughters star Rachael Carpani has landed in Summer Bay as mysterious new local Claudia, who is an unhappy customer of Justin Morgan’s after she crashed her car after Theo serviced it. In some ways, this could make sense as the mechanic shop hasn’t featured in the show in quite some time, so have the boys even been working? Hard to say.
But the car accident is not without its mysterious elements of course — just as Claudia tries to get some sort of compensation from Justin, there’s also a mystery man laying in a Northern Districts hospital bed after being involved in a “low motor speed vehicle vs. pedestrian” accident.
Rachael Carpani lands in Summer Bay: ‘A bit of a villain’
Rachael previously spoke to 7News about her character, saying she was here to disrupt the Bay. “She’s introduced in a negative way,” Rachael said. “She comes blasting in with a bit of an attitude, but as you would if your brakes failed and you ended up with a broken arm. She’s a bit of a villain and very easy to judge, but I think this will be a good exercise in playing a very flawed human being.”
