    The wife watched this before we moved.

    What did you think of the last series?

    In one word repetitious! :)
    No way is it an hour long show, could easily fit it into 40 minutes, for that reason Im not made about watching it. I record it and flick through it for the employment and housing part.

    I have never watched it... but I gather from reading other forums that it is a bit unrealistic.

    Plenty of Brits think so anyway... it seems to portray that most Ex-pats emigrating to Australia will be buying a beachside property with swimming pool, reality is some what different for most people.

    I might download it of Nova.

    I watched it once when I was in the migration process.

    I fell over laughing at the part where they said "So the jones are going to Australia, they just have to do the paperwork and they are off"

    As if they could be there next wednesday... lot of paperwork and a lot of waiting would be closer to the mark.

    I just watched this program, fair play to them they are going give it a go.

    Still they were thinking of moving from the sticks in North Wales to Redlands or Victoria Pt in Brisbane, which would be the equivalent of moving from Ballybuck to Monaco.

    Would be more realistic if they did like for like and moved from Wales to Broken Hill.
