I agree with Damson.
Who the hell did that chef think he was, trying to show the guy up. To be honest, i was cringing watching when he was shouting his name a number of times, and he took no notice of the chef. He was probably ignoring him on purpose, thinking "i've come here to film a few hours work experience, i don't know anyone here, and he's speaking to me like i'm a piece of shit".
It certainly wasn't a good advert for his man management, but perhaps he's trying to come across as aussies answer to Gordon Ramsey. What a tosser.
I know there's bosses in every trade that'll give you a hard time, but at least you're not getting shown up on national telly.

Might seem like shallow reasons for the move... but its the reasons 90% of the people coming would site, once you get past the standard "we are doing it for the kids" nonsense.
The impression we're now getting (people still in the visa black hole) that we might end up with said 'shitty house, worse money, etc etc. Thats why we come on this site for useful information from expats rather than just fluff from WDU. Could you not help us out? What's Your Story Morning Glory?

I have all the episodes on Sky+ and deleted the ones for areas I would not consider or are curious about.............the only one I have seen so far is the Roberts who went to Darwin.................they said that may see in 6 months would be about now...............does anyone know what they are doing now?

Also who decides which city/town they will go to the people or the BBC?

I wish they'd do one in Canberra instead if revisiting previously covered locations

Yeah I don't think I've seen one ever about Canberra.

I liked Darwin though, looks like a nice place.

After watching todays WDU, I've went off Cairns. Strange how the BBC can make it look so favourable last week and not so in this episode.
Its Darwin the rest of this week and NZ on Thursday. I think I'm going to stop watching it.
I entered the GMTV competition to win the Australia holiday with buisness class flights.
