Guest Character Profiles > Bradley Hawkings Lachlan Lewis

As Christmas approached, an open mic event was held at the recently-opened Piano Bar at Lassiters Hotel, with guests and locals performing their favourite Christmas carols. With hotel receptionist Bradley Hawkings running the event, Remi Varga-Murphy performed The Twelve Days of Christmas, whilst Nicolette Stone also attended along with Yasmine Shields, a recent arrival from America who Nic had started dating. However, when Nic performed O Holy Night, Yaz quickly became overwhelmed and left, with Nic following her to her hotel room, where she admitted that she and her late brother had performed that song every year on Christmas Eve.

A few months later, the piano bar's manager, Taye Obasi, was trying to prove that his friend Fallon Morell was lying about murdering Seb Metcalfe. After Taye found a baseball cap, belonging to Bradley, as Fallon was checking into her new hotel room, Taye's sister-in-law, the hotel's building manager Cara was interested to learn that some of the Lassiters employees would use empty hotel rooms for the night and switch off the CCTV to avoid being caught. Hopeful that one of those employees might have spotted Fallon at the hotel on the night of Seb's death, Taye got a list from Bradley and questioned them all. Unfortunately, he failed to get anything, telling Cara that the closest he got was Francesa Callow, who had been on the same floor as Fallon, but hadn't seen her. Cara then remembered that Francesca had contacted her that night about the wifi and had sent a screenshot, which showed that Fallon's phone was nearby, just two minutes before Seb had died. They took this to the police and Fallon was forced to admit that she'd lied about killing Seb, feeling guilty about all of the hurt she'd caused.

As hotel owner Paul Robinson found out what had been going on, he gave the hotel's Building Manager Cara Varga-Murphy a promotion to Compliance Officer, asking her to audit the entire company and find out what else the staff had been up to. Bradley was amongst those who turned against Cara in he new role and, growing tired of his constant sniping, she warned him that she knew that he'd been claiming for shorter breaks than he was actually taking and she'd be auditing the time sheets to check for any discrepancies.
