Hi,we love all the programmes on tv about people moving abroad but the one which has been most relevant to our situation is on a website we came across called emigratetv.com It's apparently been made by a bunch of real life emigrants themselves who wanted to show what its really like to emigrate without camera crews getting in the way so you get to see exactly what their going through. We've learnt a lot from it. I think there are six families in all going to Australia, New Zealand, Canada and America and its called the Emigrate Challenge. At the end you get to vote for your favourite family. We voted for a hilarious South African couple who are moving from England to New Zealand. They're practical jokers and an absolute hoot!

Hi there,
We are a family of four, the boys are 10 and 11, we are just putting our house on the market to possibly emmigrate to New Zealand, South Island, but are very confused at the moment about work areas, wages and areas to suit us. I am an Early Years teacher (0-8yrs) my husband is an office worker. If you need a family who are up for a genuine challenge and would like to use us as guinea pigs, feel free to contact us as possible candidates we would all love to try . Many thanks from us all.

Hi,
Does anyone know if this is going to be shown in NZ, sounds interesting. Oh, and by the way, moving my family to NZ was the best thing thats happened to us. No going back (cant afford the flights!).

My husband and I have freinds who have moved down under, they regularly get in touch and apart from missing them we feel that this is the life that we require. We have one daughter age 12 and one aged 3, we live in a small village with a bit of a crime rate and would like to give our children a safe and healthy start in life. I am a qualified hairdresser and my husband is a warehouse supervisor. I hope with all my heart you will consider us for your programme. Hope to hear from you soon..

What a great show, would love to take part, and have been looking into moving to Australia. Have a family,work as a midwife and interested in Maternity care over there. How do we apply?
February 13th - 8:25pmjen treanor said...
We got on the show after we had been to an emigration exhibition in Edinburgh. We recieved an email from the exhibition organisers and there was a small advert from the bbc looking for families for Wanted Down Under Series 2. We then had numerous emails and telephone interviews followed by a screen test interview in our own home before being selected.
We replied to the advert late April/early May last year. If you see an ad, I would relpy ASAP as they recieve so many applications very quickly. GOOD LUCK!

Hi, this is the first series that I have ever watched and have only seen a few episodes and I have really enjoyed it. I have always longed to stay in Australia but never considered the possibility of actually doing it. This programme has really opened our eyes for the future and really got us considering moving to Australia. I work in sales in communication company and my husband is a manager in a retail store, we have 3 children, a 6 year old and twins at 3 year old. I have been looking into this. I have done the online assessment and our family does qualify. We would like to be considered for series 3, it would be much appreciated if we could get this life changing opportunity. I hope to hear from you soonx

Does anyone have any information on the house shown today at 9;15 in adelaide?? myself and husband are very intrested in moveing to austrailia.. if anyone has information please comment back
February 8th - 10:27amStewart said...
We had watched some of the original series and thought it was great. My wife and I have since applied for an independent Skilled visa ( subclass 175) and have been watching the re-visited shows with anticipation, especially the ones for Queensland, Sky Plus is a real bonus when you're at work !. The show gives an honest and sometimes blunt reality of what lies ahead. We hope to have our visas in June, so in the mean time we can only watch and dream that this could be a reality for us very soon.
February 8th - 10:07amFfil Norman said...
Along with many others who've emailed before, we'd very much like to know how we would go about applying to take part in your show.

For Ruth Constantine I think what you are looking for is Home from Home, we are sure that is what they said would help you meet other etc on the programme. Hope this helps. We are possibly looking to move to Brisbane as well, could anyone tell us what it is like there in the suburbs? we are looking to possibly go over so can anyone recommend on where to stay?Thanks
January 31st - 0:56amRuth Constantine said...
Does anyone have the web address given out on the programme recently. I al told is was something like "get settled". I cannot find any info anywhere.
My husband and I have recenly moved over here to Brisbane and are finding it hard to meet new people.
Could there be a programme on moving to the States in the pipeline. I would love to go and live out there if I could.
