Did anyone catch this this morning? Same old format and a bit boring. It is long overdue a makeover.

However, I love it Blush

It’d be a bit (more) dull if everyone went around saying the houses were ‘fine’ and ‘nice’ and not expressing a personal opinion, though nancy. The show’s producers need all the help they can get to make the content semi interesting.

is she going to get a job expecting her 3rd child?

Vagndidit · 25/01/2018 11:17

Mum today is already bugging me. Appears somewhat difficult to please, probably not going to be content unless she's always on the move. They'd be bonkers to give up what they have currently in the UK, after so many years of constant moving. She'd want to go somewhere else after 2 years in Oz.

They seem like a very level headed family but agree Lori would initially enjoy taking control of the move but then think again.

crumbsinthecutlerydrawer · 25/01/2018 11:45

Didn’t catch much of today’s but that poor wee lad wasn’t into it was he? Although his parents didn’t seem to consider him and the upheaval to him too much.

LIZS · 25/01/2018 11:46

Seems they have gone despite not having jobs. Is it really possible to get permanent residency without one?

salsamummy · 25/01/2018 12:55

I was surprised they went to but they are staying with friends. She was pleased with the job prospects but I soppose she would be working full-time and with such a small child it would be costly in childcare.

Vagndidit · 25/01/2018 17:20

I'm surprised they went but she definitely seems to be the driving force. Moving despite not having jobs seems exceptionally risky. I really feel for their son. I think he just wants a bit of stability. Hope they can at least stay put until he finishes school doubtful

Butterymuffin · 26/01/2018 17:15

Just watched this one on iplayer. I do feel for their son, who's been shunted around for years and now has had another move when he really didn't want one. Poor grandparents too.

Oldowl · 28/01/2018 12:08

Just watched Friday's episode. Did the girl's folded arms drive anyone else nuts? I found myself shouting at the TV!

Nice houses today.

Butterymuffin · 29/01/2018 11:19

Anyone watching? NZ one today.

cattypussclaw · 29/01/2018 11:20

Watching and wondering why all the sofas are so ugly!

crumbsinthecutlerydrawer · 29/01/2018 11:29

Do these two even know each other? They’re very strange together.

crumbsinthecutlerydrawer · 29/01/2018 11:40

Hang on, they’d be £54,000 better off because they’re working on the estimate of her full time wage is NZ?

She’s not working currently here so that doesn’t mean anything.

Butterymuffin · 30/01/2018 11:31

Today's is the first time I think I've ever seen a card twiddling moment when the couple picked different things. Understandable given he'd just been told he's not eligible anymore.

crumbsinthecutlerydrawer · 30/01/2018 11:32

But he’s been told he can try through another way, he just doesn’t want to.

crumbsinthecutlerydrawer · 30/01/2018 11:33

Sorry, I’m really frustrated with him.

BrownBiscuitBarrel · 30/01/2018 11:38

The walk-in wardrobe in the third property was ridiculously large - what a waste of space.

NancyDonahue · 30/01/2018 12:25

I'm finding myself getting irrationally irritated at them saying 'It's ticking my boxes' all the bloody time.

I'm sorry but the woman (lyn) is really annoying me this morning!

FatherChewieLouie · 31/01/2018 11:29

Me too.

aabidah86 · 31/01/2018 11:33

Same!!! She's very irritating. I love how these people act like there's no activities to do in the UK with their families...

NancyDonahue · 31/01/2018 11:34

Me three. Calm down dear!

I enjoy the show but can't stand the friends and family part.

MyGuideJools · 31/01/2018 16:33

I wish they would tell you at the end of the show if they emigrated or not.....
