- Michala: (on her decision to leave "McLeod's Daughters") After nearly four years with McLeod's Daughters, I have made the extremely difficult decision to leave the series. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities McLeod's has given me as an actor, and I will miss the show dearly. I have sincerely loved working with such an fantastic cast and extremely hard-working crew, many of whom are my dear friends. I would especially like to thank the fans of the show, who have shown my character, Kate, such support over the years, and wish to let them know that Kate will still be working hard at Drover's Run 'til 2008.

- Michala Banas: I'm in [Scooby-Doo] for all of 30 seconds! I get to pick up a guy and throw him on the ground and go psycho. It's kind of funny for little old me to be doing that.
