Alan Henderson, played by Peter Phelps, made his first on screen appearance on 23 January 2012. The character and casting was announced on 22 December 2011. Alan is the father of Stu Henderson (Brenton Thwaites). Phelps was reunited with Robert Mammone (Sid Walker), who he previously worked with on Stingers. Mammone said "Peter and I have known each other for 20 years. It's like a school reunion when you work with actors that you've worked with before for a long time. It's been lots of fun."

Alan is visiting his son in the hospital, when he runs into Sid Walker, the man who beat Stu up for physically abusing his daughter. Alan confronts Sid and threatens to beat him up. Sid apologises and tells Alan that there has been too much violence already. Alan agrees and walks away. Alan later confronts Sasha Bezmel (Demi Harman) about sending naked pictures to boys and her accusations against Stu. Sid drags Alan away and they have a physical confrontation. Alan comes to the Walker's home and offers Sid a deal; drop the charges against Stu or have the police arrest him for assaulting him at the hospital. Alan later catches Stu with Sasha and he hits his son. When Stu is found dead, Alan is questioned by the police over his behaviour towards his son. Alan tells them to ask Dexter Walker (Charles Cottier) and Xavier Austin (David Jones-Roberts) about Stu, as they were looking for him shortly before he died. Alan and his wife Margaret (Susan Prior) attend a memorial service for Stu at the school. Alan goes to Angelo's for a drink and he collapses in front on Sid. Alan is taken to the hospital and Sid gets his heart restarted. Alan tells Dexter that he has regrets and later takes back his complaint against Sid, allowing him to get his job back. Alan collapses again and is brought into the hospital. Sid believes Alan's medication may be wrong and gains permission from him to go to his house and look at it. Sid later realises Margaret has been poisoning Alan and she is arrested. When Alan learns of the news he decides to leave the hospital and knocks over a nurse when she tries to stop him. Alan attends Sasha's court hearing and is angry when she is found not guilty.
