Plots(1)
Series 3 of Packed to the Rafters follows the Rafters as they adjust to life with a new baby and face their toughest test yet, the sudden and tragic loss of a loved one. For Julie and Dave Rafter (Rebecca Gibney and Erik Thomson) there’s the financial stress of being a one-income family, the sense of being pulled in a hundred directions by the needs of their adult children, and the strain placed on their marriage as the stress and exhaustion of caring for a baby take hold. Watch as the Rafter children face their own challenges. Rachel (Jessica Marais), the eldest, struggling to find balance between her high-flying new job and relationship with Jake (James Stewart); Ben, (Hugh Sheridan) recently and blissfully married to Melissa (Zoe Ventoura) and trying for kids until a heartbreaking accident shatters his world; and Nathan (Angus McLaren) agonisingly estranged and ultimately divorced from his wife Sammy (Jess McNamee). Add to the mix, new family members Coby (Ryan Corr) and Dave’s father, Tom (John Howard) and life for the Rafters has never been more packed. (Universal Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)
