BBC One - Wanted Down Under Revisited, Series 8, Morse Family

A year ago the Morse family spent a trial week living in Auckland. But where are they now?

Long shifts meant Glenn was missing out on his children growing up. A year after their trial week in Auckland, New Zealand, where do the family call home?

Glenn and Sue Morse had a seemingly idyllic life in the countryside with their two children. But long shifts as a policeman meant Glenn was missing out on his children growing up, and self-employed quantity surveyor Sue was feeling the pressure.

One year ago, they considered drastic action to turn their lives around. Moving to New Zealand would see Glenn become a house husband while Sue would become the sole earner.

A trial week living in Auckland saw the couple discover that while work for Sue would be available, it would come at a cost. One year later, which side of the world do the family call home?
