Irene Roberts (played by Lynne McGranger) has been warned to keep her distance from Harrper Matheson (Jessica Redmayne) and her sister, Dana (Ally Harris) on Home and Away (1:15pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
Which might not be a bad idea.

Irene has been in a state of denial.
But the truth is, she could be facing time in prison!
Harper, who is also facing possible sentencing, has also been warned to keep away from Irene.
But Harper can't bring herself to abandon the woman who has stood by her since she arrived in Summer Bay.
However, Irene is about to resolve THAT situation.
She confronts the Matheson sisters and warns them to not to turn-up and support her in court.
And to make sure she's got the message across, Irene tells Harper and Dana that she is kicking them out of the beach house!
Better start packing your bags, ladies!
