She was one of McLeod’s Daughters' biggest stars during its heyday.
Playing Jodi Fountain McLeod from 2001 to 2007 (and briefly returning for the series finale in 2009), Rachael Carpani was a fan favourite on the ratings juggernaut before the actress relocated to the US.

But for the first time since the series wrapped 12 years ago, the star made a return to Drover’s Run for a meet and greet event with McLeod’s fans (which you can watch in the player above!).
Rachael shared footage of her last scenes on the show before the video then featured the actress in present day arriving into Kingsford, a property north of Gawler, near Adelaide, South Australia where the show was filmed.
“Hey guys, I just arrived in Adelaide after 15 years,” Rachael said as snapshots of herself with fellow cast members Michala Banas and Simmone Mackinnon flashed up on screen.
