The 44th Annual TV Week Logie Awards were held at the Crown Palladium in Melbourne and broadcast on the Nine Network.

It was also the year Beyoncé, Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child were the international guests, and it's safe to say we'll probably never see Queen Bey at the awards again!

The leading ladies of McLeod's Daughters, Lisa Chappell (left, who played Claire McLeod) and Bridie Carter (right, who played Tess Silverman McLeod) were front and centre on the red carpet, turning heads as they celebrated the show's incredible success.

The first season of McLeod's Daughters had only just premiered in 2001, receiving one win and one nomination on the night.

The series entered the night with high hopes, nominated for Most Popular Australian Program alongside Blue Heelers, All Saints, Home and Away and The Secret Life Of Us.

While the show didn't take home the trophy that year – All Saints did – Lisa walked away with the award for Most Popular New Female Talent, solidifying her status as a rising star in Australian television.
