BBC One - Wanted Down Under Revisited, Series 15, Episode 18

Did Steve Hargreaves win wife Dianne round to the idea of a new life down under?

Steve Hargreaves had happy memories of Australia and hoped a trial week would persuade wife Dianne they should relocate there. Three years since we last saw them, did the Hargreaves make the move?

Steve Hargreaves had the time of his life in Australia on a holiday as a teenager and had always wanted to return to the place that brought such happy memories. Wife Dianne worried he was looking at the trip through rose-tinted glasses, and that a move down under would be far too big a gamble for their family. Would a trial week help Steve’s case, or would it be a case of closing the door on the dream forever? And three years on, where have the family ended up?
