I first met Craig in 1992, when I was not quite 17, and he was one of my judges on Red Faces. It was from that day that I was smitten. Teenage me wrote his name in so many of my school books.

Fast forward to 2014, and I had the “absolute pleasure” of seeing Craig as Frank another 3 times, loitering in the cold winter night each time just to see him and have photos with him. The same happened in 2015, but my hubby thought that it would be hilarious to bring along my teenage autograph book to show Craig all of the embarrassing things that I’d written about him in it. Craig thought that it was hilarious and cute, and I’m just glad that my full Rocky makeup hid my blushing. I also made and gave him a beanie, and he put it straight on, gobsmacked that I made it for him.

I have never met or worked with Craig. I only admired his work on Neighbours in 1988.

I was 17 when I watched the programme. I recall the joy and enthusiasm Craig brought to the character and his bright, engaging demeanour. Craig exuded qualities of trustworthiness and integrity.

In recent months, I've thoroughly enjoyed watching Craig's Facebook jam sessions, which showcase his brilliant musicianship whilst demonstrating how to be a wonderful example to young and old.

Craig McLachlan is such a versatile actor. I'm in the US and can't see everything he's been in, but I've bought all the DVDs I can get and even bought an all-region player so I could watch some of the ones not available in my area.

The Dr. Blake Mysteries is still on in the US and is my favourite. His fan group is wonderful - we all come together to support him, and we have become "friends" and share all kinds of information.

Craig will always have our support, and we want to see him back on the screen.

Having grown up on the Central Coast since I was 2 (now 61), everyone knew everyone around the local area. Either through school, sports or surfing.

Craig and I attended the same schools, and his older brother went to school with my brother. We all just grew up together.

Losing touch, as people do with families and careers, it was many years till I again saw Craig.

He has never been anything other than polite, friendly and respectful. What a beautiful man he has always been to me You are lucky to have found each other.

I always have thought that Craig was a great actor and musician and have been a big fan.

When I had the chance to meet him at the stage door at Rocky Horror I was so happy he was so nice to chat with and was an all round great guy, and I will always support him.

My dear sister was diagnosed with terminal cancer, on her bad days in bed, she watched her favourite show, Dr Blake, which she loved. Well, Craig found this out by a gorgeous someone. So lovingly, he took the time to send her messages and videos, play the uke, sing, laugh, told a funny joke & even little Lucien snippets.

Just amazing.

Bless him for being a truly wonderful man who made Jo feel so special (she was so Happy)

We will be forever grateful for the kind, honest, talented, beautiful man Craig was, is & always will be.

Craig attended her funeral very quietly among the congregation. He is a true gentleman with a big smile and an even bigger heart.

Craig is the best.

I've known Craig for many years. I have seen him every time he comes to Adelaide.

I attended a charity luncheon with Craig many years ago. He is a very nice person. He has time for all his fans.

Craig has hundreds of fans around the world.

I love all his TV shows, especially Dr. Blake. Craig is an awesome singer, too.

Overall, Craig is THE BEST.

I am a relatively new fan of Craig McLachlan and have searched through everything on social media. I was horrified not only by the trial and, thankfully, being found not guilty but the continued condemnation by the media. It has been relentless.

It’s about time Craig should be given the chance to pursue his acting career.

His army of fans will not give up.

I am a latecomer to appreciating Craig McLachlan. I discovered his acting in The Doctor Blake Mysteries. Craig's depiction of a troubled soul (from early childhood trauma to war experiences that never leave him) truly touches the heart. The character's quirkiness to needle those "in power" to carrying out scientific experiments at the kitchen table to helping his community even at a cost to himself - all these things made The Doctor Blake Murer Mysteries series my most loved TV series.

Thank you, Craig, for being a Star that still feels like "one of us". Thanks for the laughter & genuine interest in all those around you. Thank you for your amazing talent - the variance & roller coaster emotions you depict in your roles.

I've had the privilege of knowing Craig for a few years, and I can sincerely say that he is not just a talented actor and musician but also an incredible human being. His kindness, humility, and genuine nature are truly remarkable.

One of the most incredible things about Craig is the way he treats his fans. Despite his fame and success, he has remained down-to-earth and approachable. He treats his fans with utmost respect and appreciation.

In a world where fame can often change people, Craig stands as a shining example of someone who has remained true to his values and consistently demonstrates kindness, inclusivity, and compassion.

I have never met or worked with Craig. I only admired his work on Neighbours in 1988.

I was 17 when I watched the programme. I recall the joy and enthusiasm Craig brought to the character and his bright, engaging demeanour. Unlike other celebrities of the same era, there was nothing creepy or even slightly weird with either his on-screen or off-screen persona. Craig exuded qualities of trustworthiness and integrity.

In recent months, I've thoroughly enjoyed watching Craig's Facebook jam sessions, which showcase his brilliant musicianship whilst demonstrating how to be a wonderful example to young and old.

I have always admired Craig as an artist/actor. To me, he was one of the "good guys". Talented and confident, but always well-grounded and a nice person.

When the Dr. Blake Mysteries aired, I could not wait to watch each episode and now have the whole DVD series which I have watched countless times.

I was shocked and appalled at the way Craig was treated and has been treated over the past few years. It should never have happened.

I would love to see Craig back on TV in another series of Dr. Blake or something else. He has a talent that should not be hidden.
