Wanted Down Under Series 3 - How to Apply for Wanted Down Under

February 2, 2008

BBC Wanted Down Under - How to apply for series three of wanted down underI had an email from Helen Crawley the researcher at the BBC who helped find the ‘contestants’ to appear on The BBC’s Popular Wanted Down Under Program.

She was writing to remind me that the advert I posted a little while back is now out of date (I’d imagine she was getting a little tired of the phone calls and emails so sorry Helen :( )

She has asked me to update the contact details. So if any of you folks are interested in appearing in the Third Series of Wanted Down under then you need to email the BBC at: wanteddownunder@bbc.co.uk.

Helen was a little none committal though saying the BBC ‘may still need applicants for series 3 should we make one’ so keep this in mind when sending your emails off.

Having said that, with the popularity of the first two series of Wanted Down Under I would be very surprised if they don’t make a third or perhaps even a forth series.

So there you go folks, it’s official and you heard it here first (perhaps ;) ). If you want to apply for the third series of the BBC’s Wanted down Under program then email the BBC at the address above.

    My husband and I have just started our visa application to live in Australia however, we have not visited Australia as a family before as we now have a 16 month old daughter.

    The majority of my husbands family live in Australia and I feel my daughter would have a better future.

    Should there be a series 3, please consider us.

    Many thanks
    Heidi Buchanan

    Me and my husband have registered our interest online to immigrate to New Zealand. As we feel that this would give our children, Dominic 7 and Emily 5 a better start in life, with a better life style for all as a family.

    My husband who is a joiner has been wanting us to consider emigrating to Australia for a couple of years now as he firmly believes that we would be able to provide a far more better quality of life for our 5 year old daughter. I have many reservations as I believe I would find it difficult to leave my family behind. We have been watching Wanted Down Under and would seriously like to be considered for the next series.

    Hi Chaps
    As a family we would like to emigrate to a place such as Australia or New Zealand. Doing what I do appears to be a draw back in as such that there does not appear to be an opening or a position of employment for such a trade, either that or that you have to be a citizen of Australia in order to obtain such a position.
    Please would you consider us for your programe
    Chris

    Sometimes I’m left wondering if you guys are reading a different post to me :)

    All the instructions are in the post above. To confirm:

    If you are interested in appearing in the Third Series of Wanted Down under then you need to email the BBC at: wanteddownunder@bbc.co.uk

    :D

    I read the post and emailed them :) Fingers crossed

    sent an application e-mail to the bbc last week, and i got the same automated reply that i got when i first e-mailed them.
    will wait and see what happens in the near future.
    mark: it does seem odd that some people have not read your posting clearly.
    it was through this site that i found out about a possible series 3.

  19. Kelly on February 28th, 2008 6:34 pm

  20. Charlene on April 12th, 2008 6:33 pm

    Is it too late to apply for the third series?……..is there a closing date? Charlene, Mark & Lily.

  21. Denise Gordon on April 23rd, 2008 6:57 pm

    I applied on the 16 March and received an automated response back saying due to the high number of applicants they were no longer looking for contributors for the next series. They would however keep our details on file for consideration for a future series.
