AMANDA TAPPING, Amanda's Q&A with her fans, 5th December 2001

Question #33 from Barbara: How do you feel about the possibility of Michael Shanks leaving the show in season 6, and if he does leave, can you give us a clue as to what happens to Daniel Jackson in the show?

Amanda: I am very sad about this. Obviously it changes a lot of things for all of us. I can’t tell how it happens but I hope the door has been left open for him to come back now and again. On our last day together Christopher, Michael and I hung out in his trailer all day and cried. We have been through so much together and it was just unbelievably sad.

Question #38 from Ankh: How is the departure of Daniel going to affect the team and Sam and are there plans to deal with it properly, unlike the handling of Sam losing Martouf?

Amanda: I don’t know what will happen...I really don’t. I will not allow it to be swept under the rug...this is worth fighting for. Not that Martouf wasn’t...I just kept thinking it would be dealt with. Now I will be more proactive.
