Home and Away spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.
Some Home and Away fans were left disappointed after watching the show's most recent finale.
The Australian soap is well known for explosive end-of-season episodes, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, viewers didn't get the big-scale stunts they've come to expect.
Actress Lynne McGranger, who plays Irene Roberts on the show, has now defended the finale after criticism.
One fan commented on Instagram: "The worst season finale, boring, disappointing with no cliffhanger."
Lynne responded: "Gee so sorry Sebastian but a tinsy little pandemic kind of got in the way."
She also tweeted her reaction, praising everyone behind the scenes.
"Our cast and crew and [fire] writers, producers and directors have worked their bums off since the end of May with little or no respite," she wrote.
"So I think the final episode is a-freaking-mazing."
