Oprah Winfrey is in talks with Qantas to return to Australia to film another series of shows American talk show queen Oprah Winfrey is in talks to return to Australia. SHE had the country at her feet three years ago and Oprah hysteria is set to return. American TV superstar Oprah Winfrey is in talks to tour Down Under for a second round of live shows. Confidential can confirm Qantas is in discussions with the hugely popular presenter, as well as sponsors, for a series of shows at its hangars around Australia later this year. The airline wouldn't confirm her visit but sources say Qantas is working hard to bring her here. "Qantas is regularly in talks around opportunities to work with celebrity friends to promote Australia," a Qantas spokeswoman said. In 2010, Oprah flew 302 of her viewers to Australia to take part in a series of episodes filmed across the country. Oprah Winfrey at the sunset viewing area of Uluru on her last trip to Australia. At the time, it was reported that Oprah's Down Under Adventure would inject more than $47 million into the economy. A well-placed tourism industry source said: "We're still getting the benefits from US traffic to Australia. Having Oprah film here and the broadcast to millions and millions of Americans was a huge deal. The now-defunct Oprah Winfrey Show was broadcast to 215 networks in the USA alone, reaching more than 40 million viewers. It was shown on a further 140 networks internationally, showcasing a range of destinations from Uluru to the Whitsundays and Federation Square in Melbourne. Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe were all part of the show. She's now head of the OWN TV network with the Qantas shows expected to be filmed in airline hangars. Earlier this year, fellow talkshow host Ellen DeGeneres filmed here and, while popular, didn't attract the widespread mayhem Oprah's 2010 visit did.
