BBC One - Wanted Down Under Revisited, Series 10, Rutland Family

Was a trial week in Perth enough to convince the family to make the move to Australia?

Julie was longing to make Australia her home. A trial week in Perth helped to win over her husband Dan, so one year on, have they made the move?

In 2015 Julie was longing to make Australia her home, having first fallen for the country in her youth. Married with three children, she believed the time to move had finally arrived - and to prove it, she had already secured the family a visa to emigrate. With husband Dan having developed a serious case of cold feet, a trial week in Perth turned out to be just what was needed to allay his fears about walking away from a career he had worked hard to establish and saying goodbye to his much-loved dad in the UK. 

So one year on, have the Rutland family made it down under or decided to stay put in the UK?
