MCLEOD'S IS BACK!
Woman’s Day Magazine NZ|July 17, 2023
A long-awaited reboot will blend past, present and future, bringing some much-loved stars back together
MCLEOD'S IS BACK!

Fans worldwide are rejoicing over the news that a sequel to the drama series McLeod's Daughters could soon be back on TV, with the script already written, locations chosen and the original stars lining up to join the cast!

And fan favourites Bridie Carter, 52, and Kiwi Lisa Chappell, 54, who played sisters Tess and Claire McLeod, could lead the charge of returning stars - even though Claire was killed off in one of the most-watched deaths on New Zealand television!

Shortland Street actress Lisa tells Woman's Day she's up for it "as long as it's done in a way that doesn't diminish the memory of the character". She adds, "I don't think anyone would want to see Claire as a ghost sitting on the edge of Tess' bed, giving her sage advice." 

Meanwhile, Bridie - who now lives on a farm after starring in the first six seasons of the hit show - confirms she has been approached to reprise her role and has even seen a draft script.

"Our McLeod's family is still alive and well today, growing stronger by the minute," she recently posted on Instagram, reassuring fans that the reboot would "do justice to the legend of McLeod's Daughters".
