I know the situation is different, but today's episode just reminded me of this - every parent's nightmare I'm sure

REVISITED ??? the only thing they revisited was the 45 mins of my life spent watching the same programme back in 2006

The BBC bosses must laugh their socks off at how they can make programmes out of archived material and then charge us again for them

LOL yes its a bit of a shame it's not errrrm a more concentrated revisit and a more detailed update, having said that they seemed to be running out of things to say about the family who had to stay in Scunthorpe :$

Thankfully I didn't waste any more of my life watching that one then!!!

I have to confess that I just watched the one on iplayer where the couple went to Perth and because I could just skip to the NEW bits it was very enjoyable - they have had a real roller coaster of a time in their 2.5 years in W.A., good on them

Is it me or has the family that were on today's episode been on the last series of WDU Revisited? I only saw it for a minute but I vaguely remember the husband wearing a Man U shirt and waving from the garden of their new house......

I thought that as well.

I knew it! why would they re-revisit a family?! They must think we're stupid

None of the families, especially todays have looked overly happy with their decision

Does anyone know if todays family ended up selling their house and returning or are they still sticking at it???

I am halfway through today's episode at the moment. I feel depressed just watching.

Just finished watching today's episode how emotional!! Would be interesting to find out what happened to the family.

I remember them from the original WDU. We watched that before leaving the UK. I remember Nadia S telling them they would be sent to the "country" - in Applecross. Totally ridiculous. And I remember the Italian butcher he worked for. And I remember the touch live they had in the UK (well, the BBC made it look touch and rough).

I am really pleased to hear they made the move and are happy in Kalgoorlie.

not sure what you mean

Great episode of the Jones family today, really enjoyed their honesty and openness. Glad to see they made the right move and are enjoying their 'new life'! Hope it continues to remain that way for them all.

Looking forward to next weeks episodes from Cummings, Mason and CalNGary's too!

I've also really enjoyed the Whelans and Warners, our new friends in Oz!

Although WDU have now added 'Reality Check' into the new series, which I like, I think the biggest 'Reality Check' comes from the Revisited episodes as they are the ones 'living the life' and have gone through and are still living through the peaks and troughs. I'm sure there are many on both sides. Anyone who thinks, life won't have problems in Oz, is just kidding themselves!

I really felt for the Williams as they really wanted to go to NZ and the Mustafas!

It just shows you have to try and get the 'kids' over by a certain age to try and get them settled, but you can ONLY do your best and if they're headstrong, you can't really do much about it but you still have to live your own life, when your kids make their own choices!

As I said on our episode life changes, whether you like it or not, so you've got to try and control as much as you can yourselves!!

Watch this space for updates on us!
