It’s official: A McLeod’s Daughters reunion is on the horizon!

 

After a few of the stars took to Twitter to tease that a reboot may be in the works, a Channel Nine rep has since confirmed it’s indeed being considered by the network.  

“We are talking to [creator] Posie Graeme Evans about how we could tackle it,” the rep told The Daily Telegraph.  

“We know how much everybody loves McLeod’s Daughters, it’s an important part of our heritage."

To celebrate the possibility of the show returning to TV screens, we’re taking a look back at what some of the cast are up to now.
