Michala Banas is leaving McLeod’s Daughters. Following the recent departure of Aaron Jeffery, she has announced she will be next to go. “After nearly four years with McLeod’s Daughters, I have made the extremely difficult decision to leave the series,” she says. “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.” We can’t keep up – is Kate yet another of the Federline-ly potent Jack McLeod’s daughters? Will Kate’s farewell necessitate the writers of the show to create a new character, perhaps a petite little thing named Khanh Kim-Ly, born nine months after Jack McLeod’s final night in Vietnam where he had been serving in the Australian Task Force and blessed with a mysterious ability to wrangle livestock?
