McLeod's Daughters

I remember watching with with my mum when I was about 9 years old in Canada. I am now 21 relocated in Queensland Australia. This is truly a classic. True Aussie drama, with great acting and entertaining storyline's. Clean message and episodes. Nothing over complicated and too hard to understand. It's sucks it had to end but I am so glad you can still find this series on over streaming platforms. One of the best!

"McLeod's Daughters" just keeps getting better and better. The plot intensifies and the characters are developed more. As the audience you are able to feel a connection with these women who work hard. This show is unlike many others, it is set in the Australian outback and follows the lives of Aussie women who live and work on a farm (Drover's Run) who do the work themselves. "Mcleod's Daughter's" also shows the lives of the farmers which surround Tess and Claire, Alex and Nik. One of the main qualities this show has is that is it unique. It is unlike many other shows which are based around criminal activities and the legal system e.g. CSI, NCIS, LAO. The actors are fantastic in their roles. Bridie Carter (Tess) and Lisa Chapel (Claire) excel in the role of their characters. This fabulous acting is supported by Aaron Jeffery (Alex), Myles Pollard (Nick)and Rachael Carpani (Jodi) This is a very compelling show which inspires everyone.

McLeod's Daughters is the story of a group of sister's running a cattle station, supposedly 400 km's from the neareast large city in South Australia, Adelaide.

It is a typical Australian drama - not big on spending, but real quality when it comes to storylines. These people could be anybody that you know, so you can identify with them and understand exactly where they are coming from.

The filming location is actually on a property owned by the TV station (Channel Nine), called Kingsford, and is only just outside of Gawler in South Australia - so that makes it a real home away from home for the cast and crew, as they are only just outside the beautiful city of Adelaide. (Dubbed the City of Churches, Adelaide has a whole lot more to do than just visit churches - well worth a visit, see it on the Jacob's Creek Tour Down Under bicycle race every January!)

The series is returning to Australian screens in February 2002, and will no doubt continue filming for at least another season or two, but anyway, if you like this Aussie show, look out for Blue Heelers (a country cop show) probably airing on daytime TV or Showtime real soon.

I loved watching it the first time and come back to it regularly. It's warm and earthy aussie outback dynasty with no money, lots of drama, a little far fetched but with characters you love returning to see. I always felt a bit of yearning to be part of the mcleods and run off to Australia to work the land!! But I can do it in comfort from my sofa. Hope you enjoy it.

This program has got so frustrating! Did the scriptwriters change at about season 5. Well! They ruined it! No wonder it finished
