So what does everyone think? were they right to choose Oz? I got the impression that the lady didn't drive which would be very hard going with two small children. They seemed like a really nice family though.

I'm normally at work and so have only seen one episode when I had a day off. I forget to record it. The one I saw was with the dentist and they seemed to have a fair whack to spend on a house but they were so fussy. It seemed a bit strange to me that they were looking at property before they knew what they would earning. I'm not sure if this is typical of every episode as I've only seen one.

I would love to see the others though if anyone has them and would be willing to lend them out.

hi steve and jeanette
Saw your programme in Adelaide,it looked a lovely city,we ourselves are looking at Adelaide as when we met our immigration expert last week with the points we have South Australia is the only place we could apply for a visa.
When are you going?,it would be great if you would like to keep in touch and let us know how you get on as i am sure there is much more to see than you did on your week there.
My name is karen and i have a husband called Adrian and a 2 year old son we live in Swindon in wiltshire.
We have only just started the process really
look forward to hearing from you soon
karen

There was a very bad link today - after showing family walking to the park they said "after an hour they found the park and met up with expat Jean" well somewhere in that hour they had managed to put on a whole new set of clothes!

It would be nice to know where the first 2 houses were if anyone watching later knows.

Hi , the format of the show is pretty poor . It is an itv show really , its 45 mins on bbc where as on itv it would make an hour .

it's so repetative , thinks the viewer has forgot what was said 10 mins previous ...

These guys go out there & i gotta say there are some wally's out there , i will say & to be truthfull the ppl who have posted on this forum seem to have a lot of savy about them , done their research , but some seem turn up without even knowing what their job will pay ( roughly )

they get there on my licence fee money (thanks bbc) & seem to have no idea , some choose jobs and make out it the make or break of the deal ! for gods sake , just take a job get some money in & then search for one that suits better .

It great to see area's and anything Australian on the tv , its good from that perspective ... but sometimes you just wonder why they wasting money .

one couple had lived there before & they couldn't pull it off , well c'mon surely they had already had an idea but still they go and sit there n wonder why they are going back !


aaaagghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Flippin 'eck how observant are you?

I think i would have turned back after half an hour. Perhaps expat Jean gave them a lift home!
