Wallace Family

BBC One - Wanted Down Under Revisited, Series 7, Wallace Family

Two years after visiting Sydney for a trial week, are the Wallaces in the UK or Australia?

Nicki Chapman catches up with the Wallace family, who were considering living in Australia after a previous move to New Zealand ended in divorce. Where are they two years on?

Ben and Amanda Wallace emigrated to New Zealand in 2005 but returned to the UK a few months later, their dreams and their marriage in tatters. The couple divorced, only to remarry in 2011 and resurrect their dream of emigrating - this time to Australia.

The family spent a trial week in Sydney to see if they could make a move work second time around. Daughters Libby and Aimee were excited about a possible move, but Ben discovered his dream job of working a surf shop might not be feasible.

Two years on, have the Wallaces made the move to the other side of the world - again?
