Creation and casting

Colleen was introduced into the serial as a recurring character in 1988 until 1989. [1] Colleen mainly served as a source of comic relief and acted as the busybody type character. [1] Colleen was reintroduced again in 1999 with Collingwood reprising the role. [2] In 2006, Collingwood stated that she was willing to stay with the serial for as long as they want her. [3]

In May 2012, a writer for TV Week revealed Collingwood had left Home and Away. [4] The actress filmed her final scenes a few months previously and the writer said viewers should have "a tissue box handy" for when they are broadcast. [4] Of Collingwood's exit, her co-star Luke Mitchell said "It was very sad. She's been around nearly as long as Ray. I really enjoyed working with her and she's one of my favourite characters to watch on screen." [4] Collingwood later explained her departure, stating that there were other things she wanted to do. [5] She said "You get to a certain age and you don't know how much longer you'll be around, quite frankly, and my memory is still quite good – I don't know how long that's going to last!" [5] Collingwood added that she will miss her co-stars, in particular Ada Nicodemou and Lynne McGranger. [5] Collingwood made a brief return to Home and Away on 27 November. [6]

Character development

The serial's official website describe Colleen stating: "Colleen is the town gossip, a sticky beak and quick to judge, but she also has a heart of gold. Her main claim to fame was winning the 'Miss Groper Pageant' [...] Colleen is chronically bossy and is not above brow-beating those she cares about, especially her beloved son Lance Smart (Peter Vroom), whom she dotes on." [7] They also add: "She can be the source of information on everything that happens in Summer Bay." [7] Collingwood has said that she likes Colleen's high and mighty behaviour stating: "I like the way she gets all snooty and high-handed and above herself." [3]

Soap opera reporting website Holy Soap describe Colleen stating: "Colleen is the local gossip who always seem to put her foot in it." [8] Whilst interviewed by media reporting website Digital Spy, Collingwood agreed that she shared traits with Colleen which were: "The Irishness and the old-fashioned thing and I guess everybody's a gossip to a certain extent." [3] Of Colleen's chances of finding love again she stated: "As far as the romance goes, there hasn't been anything happening and I don't know when that next one will happen." [3]

Collingwood has stated that she often pitches "crazy plots" for Colleen to the writers in the hope they will implement some. [9] In 2006 she suggested that Colleen should go on a health kick, of this she states: "I had a vision of her and all her mates from the bowling club doing tai chi on the beach, the storyline seems to have come and gone though. It was actually used as an excuse for someone else to kiss somebody else!" [9] She has also suggested the ideas of Colleen starting internet dating and an awkward date with Alf Stewart (Ray Meagher). [3]

Storylines

Backstory

Colleen was born in Summer Bay as the product of an affair between local businessman Gordon Stewart and Mavis Hickey. Merv Hickey, the man who Colleen believed was her father, was abusive to her and Mavis. Colleen grew up admiring and envying the Stewart family for the family structure she did not have. Colleen fell pregnant at 15 and had a daughter Maureen, who she later adopted out. Colleen later met Lester Smart and they married and they later had a son, Lance.

Colleen is first seen in the general store where she is talking to Celia Stewart (Fiona Spence) and they become good friends and gossips. Colleen tells Pippa Fletcher (Vanessa Downing) that Carly Morris (Sharyn Hodgson) has been sexually assaulted before she gets a chance to, which annoys those around her. Colleen later reappears when Lance wins money ($500,000AUS) on the lottery and he gives some money to his father Les (Kevin Golsby), who runs off with another woman, leaving Colleen devastated. Colleen, unable to remain living in the family home, moves with Lance into his new mobile home much to his chagrin.

Floss tries to help her to divorce Donald, and Lance becomes happy with this. He enlists Martin Dibble (Craig Thompson) to help him and they try to make it seem as if Donald is an alcoholic like Les so Colleen will be put off. Celia ruins the plan and gets drunk instead. Donald eventually gave in to Colleen and they become just good friends.

Colleen becomes friends with Lance's new girlfriend Marilyn Chambers (Emily Symons). Colleen causes more trouble for Roo when she spreads rumours that she is having an affair with Frank Morgan (Alex Papps) behind her cousin and Frank's wife Bobby's (Nicolle Dickson) back (Almost prophetically, Frank does ultimately leave Bobby for Roo sometime after).
