Home and Away star James Stewart has warned young actors that partying too hard could be career-ending.

With the Logie Awards set to take place on Sunday night (July 30), Stewart has advised young stars not to get out of control.

In an interview with Perth Now, he revealed: "Growing up, I had a few Logies that were very memorable. There are always closed doors. Some parties behind closed doors are meant for a reason."

The actor, who plays Summer Bay's Justin Morgan, added that getting too drunk could cost actors a potential role in the future.

"I had a really great time and made a whole new bunch of mates and then, in your 30's, you'll have one glass of wine and then a glass of water," he recalled.

"The foyer is going to be filled with a bunch of potential people who are going to hire you in the future. It's that one night. You've got to keep stringing sentences together and don't make a fool of yourself.

"If you have to do the Macarena, do it for two seconds and shake hands, look them in the eye, and be able to walk into the audition room next week. That's important."

Stewart's comments come after Home and Away teased that a beloved character could be killed off in an upcoming episode.

Friday's UK-pace instalment (July 28) saw a mysterious box arrive at the diner for Marilyn from Stunning Organics. Unknown to those in the Bay, the box contains an explosive device.

The blast will devastate Summer Bay, and "when the dust settles, one person won’t be coming home..."

These scenes will play out on UK screens next week.

Home and Away airs 1:45pm on Channel 5 and 6pm on 5STAR. First-look screenings air at 6:30pm on 5STAR and the series also streams on My5.
