Wanted Down Under

[Kaz]

Jo, I think you're right about the visas, they've taken some jobs off the "wanted" list, including HR which did catch out one family Plus there was a heating engineer whose City&Guilds weren't recognised there

I've watched them all so far! I go out every morning, so have watched them all on the iPlayer when B gets home from work, as she enjoys it too

Quite a few were affected by the visa changes according to the updates on Facebook

[Kaz]

Looks like it! Makes me wonder whether the series really has a future

[JoM]

I wondered that too

New series starts on Jan 2nd at 11am.
For some reason they've closed the official Facebook page down, or are about to, which is a shame as often people who'd appeared on the show would post on there.

[Kaz]

I saw that about the Facebook page Jo Glad it's back though

[JoM]

This series seems much more positive than the last with some of the families making moves.
Not sure if I relied on the Facebook page more before but the BBC WWDU page has really good updates.

[Kaz]

It's been really good so far, hasn't it? I found the updates on the website too

[JoM]

It has, I wondered last year if it could carry on after the rule changes but they seem to have worked around it. I suppose that everything would be planned ahead and then they'd have had that sprung on them. I'm sure I read somewhere that Visa requirement changes are often brought in quite quickly.

[Kaz]

Yes, I think you're right
