BBCs Wanted down under program makes a return

December 30, 2007

BBC Wanted Down UnderThe BBC’s extremely popular Wanted Down Under program makes a return on the 2nd January 2008 at 9:15am.

Nadia Sawalha presents the second in the series in which British families are given a look at life down under.

Wanted Down Under will be showing every day from the 2nd to the 11th of January on BBC1

I’m unsure why the beeb has decided to show such a popular program at a time when most folks are at work but it’s still good to see so much interest being shown in a new life down under.

The first in the series covers the Treanor family from Paisley who are facing the daunting decision of whether to emigrate to New Zealand.

While parents David and Yennifer yearn for an easier life and more time with the kids, teenager Caitlin must be persuaded to leave her real dad behind.

Sounds like some real dramas! ;) Because we won’t see this new series Oz I’d appreciate anyones comments on what the show was really like :)

    Am watching this programme - I only found it by accident this morning - WE WANNA BE ON THIS SHOW!!! So far, they’ve laughed at the prospect of an outside toilet, and they don’t want to live too far from town. Anyway, am fascinated and going to watch the rest of the show …. Anybody want a couple of IT professionals?

    Hey Laura, I’m glad you’re enjoying the show.

    Outside toilets hey? I thought they only had those in Yorkshire :)

    Also, if your an IT Professional you’d be pretty popular down under in many of the larger cities at the moment :)

    Cheers

    Does anyone know if these programs will be repeated, as we missed it. Or are they online somewhere?

    They are online at thebox.bz, its the only way we can see a lot of UK programs.

    Regards

    Does anyone know if they are planning a third series? We really enjoyed the second one (thanks to sky+ we can watch them in the evening), and they are starting ‘catch-up’ ones from today….

    we really want to apply try out the Aussie lifestyle, and this show would be a great opportunity!!
