Kieran Fletcher, played by Spencer McLaren[11] made his first appearance in May 2000 and departed on 15 June 2000. Kieran was one of McLaren's first roles after graduating from NIDA in 1999.[12]
Kieran meets Sally Fletcher (Kate Ritchie) while on an archaeological holiday in Ireland and they return to Summer Bay and announce their engagement much to the shock of Sally's friends. Kieran begins flirting with Gypsy Nash (Kimberley Cooper) who rejects his advances and threatens to expose his behaviour to Sally. However, Kieran tells Gypsy given her reputation, no-one will believe her. On the day of the wedding, Gypsy objects during vows and confesses to Kieran trying to make a move on her. Sally refuses to believe her at first but Hayley Smith (Bec Cartwright) and Colleen Smart (Lyn Collingwood) verify her story as they both witnessed Kieran grab Gypsy several times. Sally, upset, demands the truth and runs out of the church and the wedding is called off. Steven Matheson (Adam Willits), Sally's foster brother confronts Kieran on the beach and beats him up. He leaves soon after.
Jade Sutherland, played by Kate Garven, made her first appearance on 19 June 2000. Jade was Garven's first role on television.[13] Garven said that working on Home and Away was a fun experience and that she had developed a good working relationship with those who play her on-screen family.[14] Jade is portrayed as the "quieter" and "dreamy" of the Sutherland sisters, a keen book reader who likes to help out those less fortunate than herself. Jade is prone to illness and is a long sufferer of asthma.[14] Jade's family see her as "fragile" and "vulnerable" and feel the need to treat her with care. The serial's official website describe her as being "stronger that many people realise" despite her fragile nature.[14] Garven described Jade stating that "she is a nice person and a very sweet girl." In Philip Ardagh's book of howlers, blunders and random mistakery, Ardagh claimed that Jade and Kirsty's "amazing telepathic empathy" was conveniently forgotten by scriptwriters when they were revealed to be unrelated. He added that it must have been a "surprise" to viewers who had previously seen their connection play out.[15] A columnist for the Sunday Mail thought the plot was questionable and said "A family arrive and claim Jade was swapped at birth with their daughter. You couldn't make it up."[16]
Dani Sutherland, played by Tammin Sursok, made her first appearance on 19 June 2000. The actress successfully auditioned for the role of Dani in 1999 and she called the experience "incredible". After four years in the role, Sursok decided to leave Home and Away to pursue a music career and other acting opportunities[17] Sursok later revealed that her frustration with the soap's producers also contributed to her exit.[18] She later explained that she had also become frustrated with the serial's producers. Sursok was glad that her character was written out of the show without anything bad happening to her. For her portrayal of Dani, Sursok won the Most Popular New Female Talent Logie Award in 2001.[19] Three years later, she was nominated for the Most Popular Actress Logie.[20] Linda Barnier of the Newcastle Herald branded Dani "unlucky-in-love", while The Sydney Morning Herald's Robin Oliver called her "a go-getter".[21][22]
Kirsty Sutherland, played by Christie Hayes, made her first appearance on 19 June 2000. Hayes auditioned for the role when she was thirteen years old and secured it.[23] In 2008 it was revealed that Hayes was returning to the serial and likened it to returning home when she stated: "It felt like coming home after I had moved out already, everything changed but was really still the same, it was refreshing and exciting."[24] Hayes decided to leave the serial again the following year and filmed her final scenes in August.[25] She cited that the time felt right, but added she was happy she had come back for the time she had.[23] The Armidale Express commented on Kirsty's relationship with Kane stating: "The Romeo and Juliet love story between Kane and love interest Kirsty (played by Christie Hayes) still remains one of the greatest (if not most controversial) Home And Away love stories."[26] Soap opera coverage website Holy Soap branded her final episode as a real tear jerker.[27] Holy soap also brand her wedding to Kane as "bizarre" because of the double wedding and stated "it's little wonder" that the pair had a private wedding.[28]
Rhys Sutherland, played by actor Michael Beckley, made his first appearance on 19 June 2000.[29] Beckley spent twenty years as a theatre actor before he joined Home and Away. He told Joanne McCarthy of the Newcastle Herald that he had asked his agent to find him a television role as he wanted "some stability".[30] Rhys is the patriarch of the five-strong Sutherland family, who take over running the Summer Bay Caravan Park.[29] Rhys is a former football player who has "a habit of losing his temper".[29] Beckley liked that the family were not connected to any of the show's established characters, as he believed it would allow for new story directions and "all sorts of possibilities for the show."[29]
Shelley Sutherland, played by actress Paula Forrest, made her first appearance on 19 June 2000.[29] Shelley and her husband Rhys Sutherland (Michael Beckley) take over the local Caravan Park. With Rhys having a temper, Shelley is always ready to step in and "smooth things over."[29] The character made sporadic returns in 2003 and 2004. Forrest made a brief return to the serial in 2009 in order to facilitate her on-screen daughter, Kirsty's (Christie Hayes) departure.[31]

They criticised the plot for being "unengaging" and opined that the music, performances and dialogue were "painful" and "patchy". They also stated "The problem is, simply piling one melodrama on top of another will not of itself make for good TV. The characters need to be explored, too. Otherwise the result will be superficial."[36]
