Ex-McLeod’s Daughters Heartthrob’s Resemblance To Wayne Carey Interrupts His Pleasant Bondi Breakfast

It’s fair to say we chuckled heartily yesterday when we heard former McLeod’s Daughter star Aaron Jeffrey had been accosted by police in Sydney due to the fact he looks a lot like Wayne Carey.

The police claim they were not confused regarding the identity of the beefy bloke they were having a friendly chat to, but rather they’re big fans of Aaron’s (who knew the boys – and girls – in blue would be so into the horsey adventures of the McLeod clan and their chums?) but we’re not sold…

Jeffrey, who was having coffee with former TV host Laura Csortan, was surrounded by officers from the NSW riot and public order squad.

The policemen insisted they recognised the actor and were talking to him because they were fans. But onlookers swore they had seen the footballer.

Jeffrey said he was regularly mistaken for Carey.

This’ll probably come in handy when Channel 9 inevitably produce a telemovie based on Wayne Carey’s recent troubles, and are attempting to cast the lead role.
