Series 12: 13. Holroyd
Life was hard on the Holroyds. Dad Simon's working week started at 2.45am on a Monday morning and didn't finish until after 8.00pm on Friday night. When he did eventually get home, he was too tired to spend any quality time with his family. It was a routine which loving wife Helen said drove her to tears every day, and threatened to tear her family apart. Desperate for change, she believed a fresh start for her family in Australia could be the solution. But would Australia provide what the Holroyds needed to transform their family life? And would Helen really be able to leave the one person who had always been there for her at home? Two years later we find out which side of the world the Holroyd family call home the UK or Australia?
