[Blondeshavemorefun]

It has been confirmed that Ten Pound Poms season 2 will begin on Sunday 9th March at 8pm on BBC One with episodes to air weekly.

Michelle Keegan reprises her role as nurse Kate Thorne in the second instalment, alongside returnees Faye Marsay and Warren Brown

In the trailer, which I Havnt seen yet - viewers can watch on as Robbie shares a tender moment with Kate as they rekindle their friendship

while a new character – Benny Bates (Marcus Graham) – is introduced with some words of wisdom for Terry.

The official synopsis for season 2 reads: "After a challenging first year in Australia, series two follows nurse Kate Thorne (Michelle Keegan) and the Roberts family (led by Faye Marsay and Warren Brown) into 1957 on their adventure down under, each determined against all odds to achieve their slice of the Australian dream.

"As Kate, Annie and Terry settle into their new lives, they each struggle to reconcile their hopes for the life they were promised with the harsh realities they face at Galgownie."

There are also some new characters joining for season 2, as the Skinner family arrive from Ireland "ready to enjoy their new lives in the sunshine".

Further casting includes Rob Collins (Mystery Road) as Ron, Leon Ford (Elvis) as Bill, Declan Coyle (Long Black) as Stevie, Stephen Curry (Hounds Of Love) as JJ, Hattie Hook (Savage River) as Pattie, Finn Treacy (The Portable Door) as Peter, Emma Hamilton (The Tudors) as Sheila and Cheree Cassidy (Underbelly) as Marlene.

Great, looking forward to this.

enjoying so far

I am a £10 pom only ended up in NZ not Australia.

couldn't relate to this programme at all!

Oh wow @whirlyhead. Where you on s1 Thread as sure had a couple of people on there the same

I think I am going to have to rewatch S1 as I have forgotten so many of the storylines!
Also, I was convinced Daniel Mays was in this! How wrong was I!? I spent most of the episode wondering where he and his family had gone. Completely misremembered!
And, at the end, I just knew that scene in the park was going to conclude that way…

I hope Terry doesn't get in any trouble! I like Terry.

I was trying to find a E so of whole s1 as Don’t have 6 spare hours to watch it all 😂

@RosaMoline this seems quite a good recap of s1

I know a lady who was a £10 Pom and she has told me it was realistic. She returned to the UK and then her parents and brother returned as well. A lot of the info they were given was not true. If they got their own home it was because of their own effort. The compounds were basic as in the programme and the prejudice at the time was accurate.

Following

It’s weird as sure on s1 sone said it was just like that but others say not

maybe it varies from what hostel they stayed in and how nice the ‘leader’ was

Did you watch s1 @purpleme12 as we usually watch similar stuff

Yes

Can't remember Sheila's story, I know her husband was horrible?

He was horrible and controlling and she had an affair with the head camp boss man

Ah did a long post and went pop so a shorter version of what I wrote

terry shouldn’t be drinking and Hope Benny won’t be a bad urn !!

jj wants to look after sheila bless him. Hope she leaves her husband

glad Kate returned Michel but had hoped adopted mum would have kept her word

hopefully Kate will see Michel again and he will want to see her

puzzled why Marlene threw herself down stairs

Pattie looks like she has a new
bf who is happy to play dad tho his father is racist

can’t R.E.M. what else I wrote
