Wanted Down Under 2014

[MrsReiver]

I know all you addicts are out there! I am not the only one.

Ah, interesting. I didn't notice that she was born in NZ.
This series has been more varied. Apart from the "intangible better life" bookends on Monday and Friday, there was the single mum and son with Aspergers, the army family with kids at boarding school and dad who'd been seriously I'll and the Kiwi dad who wanted to go back and be with HIS family. When it's all "better lifers" it gets very repetitive.

In tears with them today. Working at home today so get to watch...

I think it's a really interesting one today. Although her wage prospects were good, her chances of work in a city didn't sound good.

Going to have to watch it on I player today. ...why is this programme so addictive?

This is choking me up!

What a lovely couple

Really hope they get to live their dream. Lovely couple.

Good luck to them, looks like they could have a really good life out there.

Morning all. Anyone watching?

Why have they put them up in a dump?

Me! Blimey that brick wall!

YY the neighbour's up to something Chigley.

Don't they have them to keep crocs out of the pool?

Hello, can I join? New to mumsnet. But an old old friend of this show!

Hi Samantha the more the merrier. This programme winds me up yet I am strangely compelled to watch.

it's so addictive, I have tons to do but riveted to sofa. The mum remind me of Pamelarrrr in Gavin & Stacey. Bet she calls her sons 'my little princes'

I'm kind of watching. Been on phone so not heard much so far.

It's not going to end well. Older married son doesn't want to go and hasn't come on the trip.

Agreed, sparkling brook. In my experience, most of them do not deserve to go! In other shows, I would be delighted to see the back of some people! I really enjoy the revisited shows, when nice people have made a good life and when the painful ones continue to moan despite the massive changes they make! All good entertainment!

Oh yes Samantha, if they all wanted to go and everything was straightforward we would all be yawning.

Ooh an 'all male grooming salon'.

Isn't work-life balance one of your wdu bingo words!? Haha!

Nicky Pop Idol annoys me. She never even meets them. Nadia Sawalha used to meet up with them in UK and Oz.

I'm watching and I can't see how they even qualified to go on the show. Why did they apply if they have such doubts about going?
