Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Just watched today's programme, (The Biggs family???). I presume that this family didn't make it to Oz as there was no catch up.

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Don't know if they moved, but I was surprised that the little boy had never been to the beach. We live near Ystrad Mynach - where they are from and it is half an hour to Barry beach and an hour and a...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

I thought the same. Maybe, what seemed to be negativity was actually realism? They knew it would be hard, but they still wanted to move.

I think having kids would be hard for them right now with...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

I agree, very nice families yesterday and today. The updates generally seem to be more sensible - reporting how things are rather than an idealised view. Hopefully the programme will publicise todays...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Did anyone watch today's? I felt a little sad. The couple seemed to have a lot of obstacles in their way and I do wonder if they will make it over. The biggest one being his daughter who wanted to...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Hi St Georges Girl and Worzel, now you can see why we all rant at the BBC over their research. The poor families, they are really led astray sometimes. I suppose, they get a free holiday, but I hope...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Just finished watching today's programme. What a lovely family. I can't help think that WDU were partly responsible for their troubles. They gave them the choice of the beach the country and the...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

Good luck with your visas. :thumbsup: At least showing what you guys had to go through and how long it took, would give the right impression. Some people think it is easy to get a visa!!!:blink:

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under

LOL. They tried to get us for not having a licence on an empty plot of land. It proves that the inspector vans don't exist. They claimed they had visited our home and had detected a signal from...

Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under
