Kia Luby answers your questions!

Describe the best and worst things about being back on set of The Sadle Club.

I would have to say that being back together with the cast and crew from the first series is the best thing about the second series. We have all become so close that we've been practically joined at the hip for 15 weeks!

The worst thing is knowing that the Canadians have to go all the way home and we have to split up. I know that we will keep close contact until the 3rd series. hint hint!!

How would you describe your character and do you have any major differences to her?

My character is a boy-crazy, fashion conscious, pretentious chick.

Our differences? Let's just say that it's a great challenge to play someone so different from myself!

Describe your dream horse.

All the horses on set are gorgeous, but I love Anastasia (Hugo), Dolly (Cobalt / Belle trick horse) and Diablo (Raffael's horse).
My horse and I would know and understand each other. I think trust is also important.

Give a rundown of a typical day on set.

A day on a film set changes every second. There are early mornings, wardrobe changes, then hair and make-up.

Once on set, line runs, blocking and rehearsals take place before the scene is shot. There are many angles and different sized shots, not to mention the bloopers before a scene is completed!

Off-set we play practical jokes and have water fights with each other. It is like a constant party! Along with the hard work, long hours and staying focused, we still get to be kids and have fun which is cool.

Using 5 words, describe the personalities of each of your co-stars. Is there anyone who is the practical joker of the crowd? What jokes do they play?

James: Chatty, friendly, good looking guy.
Janelle: Happy-go-lucky quiet girl.
Keenan: Engergetic, crazy, fun-loving friend.
Lara: Amusing, entertaining, loud, funny friend.
Sophie: Sincere, level-headed, true friend.
Heli: Independant, driven, focused, loud friend.
Glenn: Patient, good for goss, tolerant mate.
Jess: Groovy little chick - big smile!

Explain the bond between yourself and your horse. Do you get on?

Barq and I get on GREAT!
We share a mutual trust for each other, which is cool.

You sang a song for Saddle Club. What was it like singing, do you have any past experience with singing, and is it something you want to do in the future?

Singing for the album was awesome! We all had a ball and can't wait to do it again.

What do you hope you'll be doing 10 years from now?

In 10 years time I hope to be happy, healthy and hopefully have done an action movie!
