Wanted Down Under Series 11
Episode 7 of 24

Simon moved to the UK from Australia almost 50 years ago and has spent most of his adult life longing to return. Can he persuade his fiancee to move to Perth?

Simon MacLean moved to the UK from Australia as a child, almost 50 years ago, and has spent most of his adult life longing to return. With his sons from a previous marriage grown up, now on the cusp of a new career he believes the time could finally be right to make his dream a reality. The only thing standing in his way is fiancee Jane. An only child, Jane fears leaving her elderly mum in the UK on her own and is torn at the prospect of saying goodbye to the best friend who is more like a sister.

A trial week in Perth could be Simon's one and only chance to show Jane what their life could be like down under. Will it prove good enough to persuade her to put thousands of miles between her and the people she adores in the UK in order to stand by her man on the other side of the world? Or will Simon be forced to put his Australian dream to bed once and for all?
