Peter Baker (Home and Away)

Detective Peter Baker (Nicholas Bishop) was a fictional character in the Australian drama series Home And Away.

History
Peter made his debut in episode 3762, 2004 as a detective in the Sarah Lewis case. Over time, he became well-known and popular within the Bay due to his continious heroic efforts to keep Summer Bay's security intact. He was however met with a sudden battle for life after being attacked by Sarah Lewis and going into an indefinite coma. He awoke some time in late 2004, only to discover the presence of his brother Daniel Baker, who he has had bad communication with in recent history. They did, however, resolve their differences and have become quite close over time. Peter was met with another drastic problem in early 2005, when the Summer Bay Stalker (Zoe McCallister/Eve Jacobson) began a 4 month long ruthless attempt to avenge Sarah's death, after becoming quite close to her during her time while working at Sarah's mental institution. She was however 'supposedly' killed in early May 2005, and was therefore not considered a threat any longer. Even with the Stalker gone, Peter continued to push his limits in Summer Bay, in attempts such as to discover the attempted Arsonist on the Resort, the search for an abducted Matilda Hunter, and the search for the killer of Chloe Richards. However, he temporarily left the Bay soon afterwards after being caught during an undercover mission and being shot. He left to live in the city with Claire Brody, his new girlfriend, where they would get married. In the first week of Home and Away for 2006, Peter returned to the Bay for a 'visit' after helping Leah overcome a convicted kidnapper, Dudley. But viewers soon learnt that Claire had left him, and that he was preparing to transfer back to Summer Bay, where he, along with Leah are again developing feelings for each other. Along with bad communications with his brother, Peter was never close to his family, however, they have somewhat resolved their differences and they have began to begin a form of relationship with each other. Peter later died following the explosion at Jack and Martha's wedding reception on Tuesday 20th June 2006. On the 6th of July, it was revealed that Peter had a son, Andrew "Drew" Curtis.
