Why Ada Nicodemou refuses to watch Heartbreak High

It might be one of the most iconic cult shows in Australian television, but Ada Nicodemou insists she can’t watch herself on Heartbreak High.

The actress from Home and Away visited Dave Hughes, Ed Kavalee, and Erin Molan on their Hughesy, Ed, and Erin radio show today to talk about her career and the upcoming TV WEEK Logies.

Ada remarked that she’d been in the business for three decades, having started her acting career on Heartbreak High.

“So, when I was sixteen, I did Heartbreak High… Heartbreak is now available on Netflix, and I’m afraid to view it because I’m afraid to see how bad my acting and dancing were,” Ada joked.

“At the time, it was so pioneering,” she added of the show.

“It had people who looked like me on it, and we’d never had that on Australian TV… It still holds up I think but I am scared to watch it.”

The show, which was huge in its time, did exceptionally well when it was re-released on Netflix, spawning a revival that will air this year.

The drama, which stars Ayesha Madon, Chloe Hayden, and James Majoos, will be modernised for the twenty-first century while maintaining its gritty beginnings.

Characters that identify as gay and non-binary will be featured in the revised version, as well as neurodiversity among the actors and characters.

Ada also expressed her excitement for the TV WEEK Logie Awards on Sunday, saying she was looking forwards to wearing the attire she had picked.

“It’s simply nice to feel secure and sure of oneself, and to know that even though walking the red carpet is intimidating, I feel good.” She remarked, “Being in my thirties is a good thing.”

Ada, who is now 45 years old, has played Leah Patterson on Home and Away since 2000.

Ada is up for the Most Popular Actress award on Sunday, which will be voted by the public. She’s been nominated for the award a number of times but is yet to take the Logie home with her.

You can catch Ada at the 62nd TV WEEK Logie Awards this Sunday evening on Channel Nine.
