Re: BBC - Wanted Down Under
Does anyone know how many of the couples who were on WDU are members on BE?

No need to apologise deyrans. South Australia can't afford to ignore stories like yours. Good luck to you in the future.
Here's hoping the upswing in SA continues for many years to come

The lady teacher from Witney who went to Brisbane and then Adelaide
The carpet fitter from Bedford whose wife was from the NE, went to QLD
The couple from Reading I think who have yet to sell their house and are on their way to Perth
Ruth and Partner from Yorkshire who are heading to Cairns.
Also thought of the couple that moved to Melbourne, she was a nurse and sadly he was a bit of a whinger. They featured on a series where you could test drive a move back to the UK.

Hi,
I was watching something on Sky + this morning and noticed a new WDU was included in the planner - it is on next Wednesday but it doesn't give the Programme Synopsis so I can't tell you if it's a repeat or a revisited.
