New life down under - 1 off special?
I have just been looking on the channel 4 web site and i think a one off special of A New Life Down Under is planned for Thursday 22 July, 8pm, (hope it wasnt last year)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is the link to the site;
http://www.channel4.com/life/microsi...der/index.html
This is the programme synopsis;
Every year, thousands of Britons move to Australia in search of a new life in sunnier climes. But at over 11,000 miles it's a big step to take and a long way to leave friends and family behind.
In Channel 4’s A New Life Down Under, cameras followed families as they set up home in Australia. Some adapted more successfully than others, but each had their own unique problems.
But how have they fared since? This one-off programme reveals how three of the families are settling into the Australian way of life, and reflects on their experiences over the last 15 months.
We catch up with Lorraine Singleton from Blackpool, who always dreamt of a life in the sun; the Skeggs family, who moved to Perth without ever having visited the country; and Rachel Russell, whose new life on the Gold Coast was threatened by money worries.
I personally cant wait, thought i would share it with you all.

22nd July is a Sunday this year, and it was definitely a Saturday last year (only know this as we got married then
)
The last Thurs 22nd was in 2004 so it's a bit out of date me thinks
