Since visiting Australia on a family holiday over ten years ago, James Reeves has been obsessed with making the country his home. He celebrates Australia Day over St George's Day and regularly cooks kangaroo burgers for tea.

But while his actions have given children Ewan and Evelyn an appetite for their dad's dream, partner Kelly just doesn't share his enthusiasm. With strong family ties in the UK, she hates the sun and doesn't enjoy travelling, so tempting her to relocate to the other side of the world is proving challenging. A trial week in Melbourne could be James's best chance yet at getting the life he wants.

Deborah and Gethin were bowled over by the Australian lifestyle on honeymoon there in 2004, making a pact to return permanently once they had started a family.

Their plans suffered a setback when both their fathers died suddenly within a week of each other and the couple resigned themselves to staying close to their mums in Wales. But their desire for an outdoor lifestyle was too great to ignore. Encouraged by work opportunities, they moved to Dubai in 2012, believing it would give them the lifestyle they wanted while knowing they were still close enough to home should they be needed.
