When you leave a show like Shortland Street after being on it for as long as Angela Bloomfield has, the question everyone wants to know is: Why?
The answer is simpler than you'd think.
"Geez, is 24 years not enough for anybody?"
Bloomfield has been on the long-running soap since just after its inception in 1992. She was just 19 when she joined the cast, playing the no-nonsense Rachel McKenna on and off ever since. Five days a week, 50 weeks a year.
