Series 12: 1. Evans Family
Sue Evans feels her family is at breaking point - and sees a new start in Australia as the only way out. There is just one problem - most of her family don't agree.\n\nHaving just had baby number four, Sue is feeling the strain of husband Matt's workload, which takes him away from their home in Rainham in Kent most weekdays - and many weekends as well. It doesn't leave much time for family. And the couple are like ships in the night. They are beginning to feel their marriage has lost its sparkle.\n\nMemories of a gap year spent down under in her twenties has painted a rosy hue of life in the southern hemisphere and Sue is convinced it is the place for her young family to make the best of life. Although Matt knows things have to change, he doesn't necessarily share Sue's vision. He thinks it is too risky to give up all he has worked hard to provide and is reluctant to gamble everything on a country he has never even been too. And he is not the only one questioning a move. Eldest daughter Bethany is far from keen to leave her friends and family.\n\nSue has got seven days to sell the Aussie dream to all of her family. Across the week, they get to see where they might live in Brisbane, what they can afford and the jobs they could get if they emigrated. Then at the end, they come to a final decision - and vote.
