He played Steven Mattheson, a foster child raised by Pippa and Tom Fletcher, in the first episode of Home and Away.

Adam’s first appearance on the program lasted until 1991, and four years later he made a comeback as a regular.

His last appearance as a guest was in 2008.

Before ending up his TV career with a part in Rake in 2014, Adam maintained his life on the small screen with roles in the TV series All Saints.

Additionally, he appeared in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.

However, he has now given up his TV popularity in favor of a job in insurance.

Since its debut in 1988, Home and Away has enjoyed tremendous success in Australia and the UK.

Recently, a fan favorite who played a pregnant teen on the show 28 years prior seemed unrecognizable.Shaun Wood, who starred in the Christopher Fletcher film, was likewise difficult for fans to recognize.

In contrast to his television role, actor Norman Coburn, who played Donald Fisher, appears in the show.

After thirty years on television, the program was reportedly “facing the axe” recently.

The show presently airs on Channel 5 in the UK and Channel Seven in Australia, although sources suggest network executives in Australia are “under pressure” because of declining ratings.
