Here's an article from the Sunday Herald

THE removalists are moving into Ramsay Street again.

Following Damien Bodie's decision to quit the show comes news that popular young performer Ben Nicholas is also hitting the road.

Nicholas has been with the long-running soap for more than three years, playing the character Stingray.

Nicholas will sign off next month -- a week after Bodie's departure -- to head to England for a pantomime before travelling.

Both actors will be seen on screen until earlier next year.

Their departure must raise questions about the future of Stephanie McIntosh's character, Sky. Both Nicholas and Bodie shared story lines with McIntosh's character.

McIntosh's contract expires in April and her departure to concentrate on her music career would come as no surprise. Her musical hopes suffered a blow after her haphazard performance on the Grand Final edition of The Footy Show last month.

While Bodie and Nicholas are moving on, David Hoflin, who has appeared on McLeod's Daughters and All Saints, is moving into Ramsay Street. Hoflin's character will fill the void left by the sudden departure of Christian Clark after only 12 weeks on the show.

Is anyone else devastated?

I'm gutted. Crying or Very sad

I had my suspicions that Ben wanted to leave Neighbours when I heard that he was coming to the UK to do panto. I was relieved when, a few days ago, somebody on the NeighboursFans Forum said that he had renewed his contract with Neighbours until 2009. Just goes to show that you shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet!

This news, however, is true: Ben's leaving Neighbours. You can read the article for yourselves at the Sunday Herald Sun website.

Ben is a talented guy and I won't be surprised if we see him on the screen (big or small) soon after he leaves Neighbours.

The article also confirms that Damien Bodie will be leaving the show as well. Ramsay Street won't be the same without the Timmins boys..or Sky or Lyn or Max or Katya...

Thank God that Kyal isn't leaving...until 2008 at least!
