0:00:02 > 0:00:04If you fear for your children's futures,
0:00:04 > 0:00:07how far would you go to give them the best life possible?
0:00:07 > 0:00:11Would you be prepared to give up your career and leave everyone you love
0:00:11 > 0:00:14to start from scratch on the other side of the world?
0:00:15 > 0:00:17Jessie Samra and Kevin Raison
0:00:17 > 0:00:21are desperate improve their family's prospects by moving to Australia.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23I'm not happy in the UK.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25And I'm really hoping this is the answer.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28But not all the family are on board.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31At the moment, no, I don't want to move out here.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33When a trial week shows the good...
0:00:33 > 0:00:35Oh, that is lovely!
0:00:35 > 0:00:36..and the bad...
0:00:36 > 0:00:38SOUND OF TRAFFIC
0:00:38 > 0:00:41That noise from the road is just driving me crazy.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44..will the thought of leaving loved ones behind...
0:00:44 > 0:00:47It hurts, it actually hurts.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49..put paid to the dream forever?
0:01:11 > 0:01:16The world's sixth largest country, Australia's 30 times bigger
0:01:16 > 0:01:20than the UK, but with just over a third of its population.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22But that figure's rapidly growing,
0:01:22 > 0:01:24thanks in part to the 23 British families
0:01:24 > 0:01:28who make Australia their new home every day.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Many are drawn by the country's warmer climate
0:01:30 > 0:01:33and famous outdoors lifestyle.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35But not everyone makes it work
0:01:35 > 0:01:38and around half return with their dreams a distant memory.
0:01:41 > 0:01:42Jessie Samra and Kevin Raison
0:01:42 > 0:01:46want the best future possible for their children,
0:01:46 > 0:01:48but have become increasingly concerned about their
0:01:48 > 0:01:52family's prospects if they stay in the UK.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Though having never been,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57they've set their sights on a new life in Australia.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Ahead of them lies a week to discover
0:02:00 > 0:02:03if the country can live up to their high expectations,
0:02:03 > 0:02:08then they'll face perhaps the biggest decision of their lives.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Flying via Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, it takes the family
0:02:15 > 0:02:19over 24 hours to travel from London to Australia.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22When they finally touch down,
0:02:22 > 0:02:25that's a difference of opinion on how the flight went.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27It wasn't as tiring as I thought it would be.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30I'm feeling quite... I'm looking forward to the day ahead.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- The journey really tired me.- Yeah.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38Arriving on Australian soil is a huge personal milestone for Kevin.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40In all that time I've just wanted to get here,
0:02:40 > 0:02:44just being in Australia's just... Yeah, it's good, it's really good.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50He and Jesse are pinning their hopes on the next week being a success.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55It's really important that Australia this week goes really well.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00I'm not happy in the UK and I'm really hoping this is the answer.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03It really depends on this week, you know? This is the crunch.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07We find out whether this is something for us, or whether it's not.
0:03:07 > 0:03:08Kevin's right.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13The next week will decide where the family will spend the rest of their lives.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Meet the Samra and Raison family.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33They are Jessie, Kevin, Kuba, Kieran and baby Che.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44Before she met Kevin, Jessie was a single mum
0:03:44 > 0:03:47living an active life in Wales with daughter, Kuba.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50We were really outdoorsy, we had lots of activities going on.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54Literally, just have quality time as a family outdoors.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58We did loads of activities like dance and drama and horse riding
0:03:58 > 0:03:59and karate and stuff.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07Then four years ago, mum and daughter returned to where Jessie grew up.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Kuba and I moved back to West Bromwich from Wales
0:04:11 > 0:04:14because we wanted to be close to family.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18I just felt Kuba was missing out on seeing her grandparents more often.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Wanting to remain active, Jessie enrolled in some boot camp
0:04:23 > 0:04:27training sessions and the instructor caught her eye.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Jessie was actually assigned to my boot camp and she accidentally
0:04:31 > 0:04:35texted someone, thinking it was someone else and texted me instead
0:04:35 > 0:04:37and I think the words were, "I'm smitten."
0:04:39 > 0:04:42So... That's how I knew that Jessie liked me in some way.
0:04:42 > 0:04:47The couple fell in love and Kevin became part of both Jessie and Kuba's world.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50To me, Kuba's my daughter.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53And it felt that I took that on board quite easily.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56And soon, son Che came into their lives.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59It feels like everything's just pieced together, finally.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02The whole of my life has just pieced together.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06There's also an important fifth member of the family,
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Jessie's nephew, Kieran, who Jessie's cared for like a son.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13I think Kieran's a massive part in mine and Kuba's lives.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- But he's a big part of your life, really.- Yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17He helps you coach in the business.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Before they met, Kevin had a dream of moving to Australia.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27I had a dream many years ago, about the late '90s,
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I was looking to see as much of Australia as I could.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34But his initial plans were put on hold
0:05:34 > 0:05:37when some unexpected bills landed on his doormat.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Unfortunately my dog was taken ill.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43All the money that I'd saved went on the operations for my dog.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49A couple of years later, after losing his father,
0:05:49 > 0:05:53he thought it might be time to try Australia again.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55When my dad passed away...
0:06:03 > 0:06:07..I decided I'd like to go to Australia.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10I didn't feel as if I had anything here for me.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15And a friend did say to me that wherever you go,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18you're always going to take your thoughts with you.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21So, yeah, it's been a couple of times I've tried for Australia,
0:06:21 > 0:06:23so third time lucky.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Now Kevin's dream has new life
0:06:28 > 0:06:31and Jessie's begun to share his desire to move down under.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Since moving from Wales I think you've started to
0:06:35 > 0:06:38always look for somewhere else to be.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Apart from Birmingham!- Yeah.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44I have it in my head what Australia can provide for us.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47So the family time, the outdoor lifestyle.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Jessie's worried life for a teenager in the West Midlands
0:06:52 > 0:06:55isn't stimulating enough for Kuba.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57She used to play the guitar, the piano, the trumpet
0:06:57 > 0:06:59and she's given it all up.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Because I've come from Wales, it's like, really different.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05So where I'd be out and doing activities, I'll just be at home.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Just with social media and that's it really.
0:07:10 > 0:07:15And she believes a move down under would give Kuba a better life.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18In Australia, she'll have that outdoor lifestyle, she'll have,
0:07:18 > 0:07:23in my opinion, more opportunities to do all the things she wants to do.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26And offer nephew Kieran, a brighter future too.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30It'll open his eyes to what there is out there.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32I just want him to fulfil his dreams.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37So the dream's back on.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39It's been nearly 20 years.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42The dream's always been there, but you just kind of lay it down
0:07:42 > 0:07:43and think it's never going to happen.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46But Kevin's close to his Aunt Sandra
0:07:46 > 0:07:48and is torn at the thought of leaving her behind.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52We're so happy when we see each other and now, you know,
0:07:52 > 0:07:56we could be making one of the biggest steps we've ever made in our lives.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59It worries me, it does worry me.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03Jessie and Kuba are also concerned about leaving family who live nearby.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- It's not that easy to just jump on a plane...- No.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09..and come back here if you're needed.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13I think that'll probably hurt me the most.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Yeah, I know.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18I see my nan every day and knowing that after school
0:08:18 > 0:08:21I'm not going to go there, it's not a nice feeling.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23While Kieran has his own doubts over the move...
0:08:23 > 0:08:27I'm massively scared and nervous.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I'm leaving so much behind, friends, family,
0:08:30 > 0:08:32they all mean a lot to me right now.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36Despite their worries, Jessie and Kevin are raring to go.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I think it's a bit of a make-or-break.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- It's a borderline obsession now, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46We know what we want and we've got to have it within our grasp,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48very quickly.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57To find out if Australia will become their home, the family
0:08:57 > 0:09:02are visiting Adelaide, the driest of the country's state capitals.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Their base for the week is Brighton Beach,
0:09:06 > 0:09:11the area's a haven for families and only a 25-minute train ride into the city.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17Once inside their temporary home, Jessie's pleasantly surprised.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- It's quite nice, actually. I didn't expect it to look like this.- Yeah.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25- The living room, with inviting fire, goes down a treat.- OK.
0:09:27 > 0:09:28I can feel the heat off that.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32But it's the open-plan kitchen-diner that really hits the spot.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- Oh, wow.- I like this.- Oh.
0:09:36 > 0:09:37It's a good size.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42And the outside entertaining area definitely has the "wow" factor.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- Oh, wow!- This is gorgeous. - It just gets better, doesn't it?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48This is where I would chill out.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50As they make themselves at home,
0:09:50 > 0:09:54Kevin can barely contain his delight and is already feeling settled.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57It's took 20 years for me get to Australia
0:09:57 > 0:10:00and there's certain things that just tells you it's Australia,
0:10:00 > 0:10:03but there's nothing... It feels quite homely for us.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05It feels normal to be here.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- Oh, wow!- Wow!
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Jessie's pinning her hopes on Australia showing
0:10:10 > 0:10:14Kuba and Kieran how their futures could be brighter down under.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17I think it's huge break for Kieran and Kuba.
0:10:17 > 0:10:22I really hope they open their eyes to something bigger and better
0:10:22 > 0:10:23for themselves.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26But it's likely to be an uphill struggle.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29I do admit, no, I don't want to move out here.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I'm worried about like, not knowing... Making friends and stuff,
0:10:32 > 0:10:36because it's totally new people around me and I won't know anyone.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Kevin knows just how much is at stake.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41This week is a life-changer for the family.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43It's a long way to make a mistake,
0:10:43 > 0:10:46so we've got to make sure that if we do it, we do it right.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Kevin and Jessie's dream of a life down under will live or
0:10:49 > 0:10:51die in the next few days.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Back in the UK, the family live in Smethwick in the West Midlands.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Their three-bedroom house is midway through renovations.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10We're in a really good location for our house.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12It's in a sought-after area.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15We've got the woods opposite so it's great for walking the dogs,
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- for the kids to play.- Work is literally over the road from me.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Yeah, you literally go across the road.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22The house in itself is a very big property.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24It's just not laid out the way we would like it,
0:11:24 > 0:11:26so we're knocking it all through.
0:11:27 > 0:11:33The family's budget for buying a home in Australia is around £250,000.
0:11:33 > 0:11:37They know exactly what they want.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38A swimming pool.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Close to the beach.
0:11:39 > 0:11:40A hot tub.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42A big kitchen.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43We definitely need a big kitchen.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44A barbecue area.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Crikey, it's all outdoors for me.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48A nice big garden for the dogs.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51To go to Australia and have something we're not happy with
0:11:51 > 0:11:54to live in, it just wouldn't sell the dream.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58We have to have all those ticks.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06To find out what kind of house the family could call home
0:12:06 > 0:12:09in Australia, today we'll show them three properties.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13Two on budget and a third one which could be their dream house.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Only after they've seen each one will they discover its value.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23For their first viewing, the family head just 10 minutes
0:12:23 > 0:12:27south from Brighton Beach to the Sheidow Park area.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Popular with expat families, it's close to the beach
0:12:30 > 0:12:33yet only about 35 minutes to the city by train.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37So, will this four bedroom house be to the family's taste?
0:12:39 > 0:12:40On arrival,
0:12:40 > 0:12:45the sloping driveway doesn't get the viewing off to the best of starts.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48- That's quite steep. - That's quite frightening.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53- The roof's almost level with the road.- It's quite freaky, that.- Yeah.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I don't like the steep drive for my heels.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00But, despite the shaky start, inside, things begin to improve.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- Nice and bright.- Yeah.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I didn't expect that because it's so low down off the road.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07OK, bedroom.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10The master bedroom lifts the mood further still.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12That's nice.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16- Oh yeah, that's nice. - A walk-in wardrobe.- Oh, wow!
0:13:16 > 0:13:18I don't think it'll suit Kuba, still not enough room for her.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20She could have all of that.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22The other bedrooms are just so-so,
0:13:22 > 0:13:25failing to make a positive impression.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28- You're literally on the pavement. - Very small.
0:13:30 > 0:13:35While the open plan kitchen, diner and living room do win some praise...
0:13:35 > 0:13:38It's nice. It is.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41- I like the way it's like two halves.- Oh, wow.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43..it's not long-lived.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46It just reminds me of an apartment, this whole house.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50It's taken away from the cosiness of the house.
0:13:50 > 0:13:51Oh, this is nice.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53It carries onto the deck.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54However, up on the roof deck,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57the family can finally imagine settling in.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Oh, this is lovely.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01Now this is it.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02It's good, so if it gets too hot,
0:14:02 > 0:14:04at least you've got the shade there as well.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I can see myself out here everyday.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11So, a good ending to this viewing but overall,
0:14:11 > 0:14:13the house received a mixed response.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18Even so, could they afford it with their £250,000 budget?
0:14:19 > 0:14:23I've no idea how much this could be...
0:14:23 > 0:14:28but I'm going to guess at 190.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31I'm thinking over the 200 mark.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35I'm going to go £225,000
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Do you want to do the honours?
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- Oh.- Wow.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I was the closest.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49That's £19,000 under their budget.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52I certainly think it makes sense to me, that price.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56It kind of makes sense but I was expecting a little bit lower.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00I'm excited to see if this is 231,000,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03what on earth we can get for 250,000.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05I want a pool!
0:15:12 > 0:15:15To see if Jessie can get the pool she so badly wants,
0:15:15 > 0:15:18the family head just five minutes south to Reynella,
0:15:18 > 0:15:23a quiet family friendly area only 10 minutes from the nearest beach.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28From the get-go, everyone seems more impressed.
0:15:30 > 0:15:34- First impressions, really nice. - I really like it.
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Jessie even manages to put a positive spin on the nearby noisy highway.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41You can't really hear much
0:15:41 > 0:15:44but it's all about getting somewhere quick, at least you can do that.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45Yeah.
0:15:45 > 0:15:50- Inside, the house just can't put a foot wrong.- Oh, nice.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53This is what you would expect in a proper hallway.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57It keeps you guessing as to what the rest of the house is like.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59The master bedroom's a real crowd pleaser.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Oh, wow!
0:16:02 > 0:16:04What's it...? Whoa.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Ah, it's gorgeous.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Especially with its immaculate en suite.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- It's a gorgeous en suite. - I love the shower and everything.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Oh, it's lovely. I can see myself getting ready here in the mornings.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17In the next bedroom...
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- It's a good room. - It's not bad.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23..Jess is distracted by something she spots out of the window.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25That would be ideal.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28The secret's out of the bag.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29I just seen a pool.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- SHE GASPS - Did you?
0:16:31 > 0:16:33You had to spoil it.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- Shall we go and look at the rest of the house?- Yeah.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39The quicker we move, the quicker we get the pool.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41I don't know what this is.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Could be a study.- I thought it was going to be a dining room.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45It's a nice lounge.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47In the living room come office, trying to get a sneak peek
0:16:47 > 0:16:50of the pool proves irresistible.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51But Kuba...
0:16:51 > 0:16:53BANG THEY LAUGH
0:16:53 > 0:16:55..is possibly a little bit too keen!
0:16:55 > 0:16:59The large open-plan kitchen and living area is where the house
0:16:59 > 0:17:01really begins to put its best foot forward.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02Oh, how lovely.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05- JESSIE GASPS - I love the kitchen.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- Look at the rounded cupboard. - Oh, my God.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10The dining area's gorgeous as well.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12- I want to move in like... - Now!- Yeah!
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Even just looking out, sitting down on the sofa...
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Can look out. It's just beautiful.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Just onto the balcony.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- Oh, I could see myself living here. - Shall we go and have a look?
0:17:25 > 0:17:29But it's outside the piece de resistance lies in wait.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- Oh, wow.- Wow.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Kind of want to get in it right now!
0:17:35 > 0:17:36So, can we move in today?
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Oh, that is lovely.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42The whole family are smitten.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45If it's over budget, I think we need to look at
0:17:45 > 0:17:48selling everything that we've got back in the UK...
0:17:49 > 0:17:51..and getting down here as soon as possible.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- JESSIE LAUGHS - Kuba's already moved in!
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Today has made it more real than ever...
0:17:57 > 0:17:59that we could potentially live a lifestyle like this.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Not quite so fast, Jessie!
0:18:02 > 0:18:06First you need to find out if your budget of £250,000
0:18:06 > 0:18:09could cover the cost of this promising property.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Overall, it's stunning.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14- There's no faults. - Yep, you're right.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Everything that we want is here...
0:18:17 > 0:18:18and more.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19Yeah.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23The one thing that makes me nervous now is the price.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25I'm going to go...
0:18:26 > 0:18:29..£265,000.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33I've got a feeling it's at least 50 grand more than the previous one.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36So I want to go a little bit more than that and go...
0:18:38 > 0:18:40..285,000.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41OK.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Ready? Yeah?
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- Yeah. - I'm really nervous!
0:18:50 > 0:18:53- Hey!- Wow!- I love that price!
0:18:53 > 0:18:54I'm shocked!
0:18:54 > 0:18:58That's just £2,000 over their budget.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02That's just incredible. I was not expecting that at all.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- I'm nervous...- Wow.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07We can potentially buy this house and have a good life...
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Yeah.- ..in Australia.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11It's suddenly become very real.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22To see if they can top house two, the family travel
0:19:22 > 0:19:24to what we think could be their dream home.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28It's located in Flagstaff Hill - a leafy suburb
0:19:28 > 0:19:31that caters well to families with sporting clubs, schools
0:19:31 > 0:19:33and shops on the doorstep.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36From outside, the two-storey house has the entire family
0:19:36 > 0:19:38grinning from ear-to-ear,
0:19:38 > 0:19:39especially Jessie.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41It's absolutely stunning.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43I told you, it could only be a dream house,
0:19:43 > 0:19:45- if it is a two-storey house.- Yeah.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- It's massive.- It looks lovely. Look at the windows as well.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51However, the inside isn't quite what they imagined.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52Oh, wow.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- I wasn't expecting this. - That's quite strange.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57It's nice strange though.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Heading straight upstairs, are the bedrooms up to scratch?
0:20:00 > 0:20:02This is a really nice room.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Got good windows.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06- I'm not really feeling this room. - No?
0:20:06 > 0:20:08No.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12OK, so Kevin's not getting the right feeling.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16But with five bedrooms in total, will the others float his boat?
0:20:16 > 0:20:18- Smallish room really. - It is.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Oh, dear.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23In bedroom three, the reaction continues to be a little lacklustre.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25This one works better.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- It does.- Still...- Where we've looked, the space could be better.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Still quite small.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33It's not until they get to the master bedroom with en suite,
0:20:33 > 0:20:38that they begin to appreciate what the house could offer them.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39This is a nice bedroom.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41This excites me.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44This en suite, the bedroom, everything.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47- The rest of the house needs to be worked around this room.- Yeah.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48- These rooms.- Yeah.
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Oh, that's nice though.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Oh, that is so pretty looking over at the pool.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55But whilst the bedroom's balcony gets Kuba's thumbs up...
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Out here is really nice.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00..this is one road that's just too close for comfort.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Can't get peace and quiet.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06- I wouldn't be able to enjoy it. - No.- There's too much noise.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Back downstairs,
0:21:09 > 0:21:12the generously sized open-plan living room, kitchen and diner
0:21:12 > 0:21:14perks everyone up.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18It's lovely.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19- Look at that.- What's that?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Oh, wow.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23- Wow, that's nice.- That is beautiful.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24- It's gorgeous.- Love the kitchen.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- Kitchen's gorgeous. - Beautiful. It's a great size.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Outside, while the pool area looks great...
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Nice and deep, the pool. You can kind of...
0:21:32 > 0:21:35The pool looks very nice.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36It's nice.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38- It is nice. - CAR ENGINE RUMBLES
0:21:38 > 0:21:41..the road noise just can't be ignored.
0:21:42 > 0:21:43That's too noisy.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Sadly, that noise from the road is just driving me crazy
0:21:50 > 0:21:51and it's coming again.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53You can't relax in that.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55No.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57So, while it may not be for them,
0:21:57 > 0:22:02could they afford this house with their budget of £250,000?
0:22:02 > 0:22:05This one I think is about £317,000.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08I don't think it's as high as yours.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10- I'm going for 305,000. - OK.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- OK, Kieran, do the honours.- OK.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Ready?
0:22:18 > 0:22:20- Wow.- Oof!
0:22:20 > 0:22:23That's £104,000 over budget.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Do you know what?
0:22:26 > 0:22:30- I'm glad we liked the second house more.- Yeah.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33You save £100,000 for liking a house in our range.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39It's been a day of highs and lows hunting for property
0:22:39 > 0:22:42in Adelaide's southern suburbs.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Property one felt too much like an apartment,
0:22:44 > 0:22:47despite the roof deck getting the thumbs up.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Property two was the real winner
0:22:49 > 0:22:52with its large open-plan kitchen diner
0:22:52 > 0:22:55and a pool that got the whole family smiling.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57And property three failed to win approval
0:22:57 > 0:23:01with the neighbouring road creating a racket the family couldn't ignore.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05So, how will everyone vote when it comes to properties -
0:23:05 > 0:23:06home or away?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Based on the properties we've seen today, our votes goes to...
0:23:18 > 0:23:19- Australia!- Australia.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Undecided.
0:23:21 > 0:23:22Really?!
0:23:22 > 0:23:23Why? What's...?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Of the three, I thought there was one that was nice
0:23:26 > 0:23:29and the other two didn't satisfy me at all.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33- Doesn't that second one satisfy you enough to think...?- A lot.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35- But why is it in the middle? - Well done, Kuba.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38I'm glad to see that you've done that.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41- You've decided Australia. - Only for houses though.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44I'm not sure about the lifestyle and stuff yet.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48That's not bad. Three and a half out of four's not bad.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50It's a good start.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52I love it. I absolutely love it.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- I can see us living here.- Yep.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Look at the sunset.- It's beautiful. - That is gorgeous.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Jessie and Kevin may have found their ideal home,
0:24:13 > 0:24:15but if they're to afford it, finding the right jobs
0:24:15 > 0:24:18with the right salaries will be vital.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Back in the UK, Kevin runs his own fitness company he's built up
0:24:28 > 0:24:30over the last ten years.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Very good! Impressed!
0:24:32 > 0:24:35I love what I do. It's not work, it's play.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I get to come out, I get to talk about the things
0:24:37 > 0:24:39that I want to talk about.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43It's just something that I just absolutely love doing.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46A move down under would mean a daunting process,
0:24:46 > 0:24:49having to re-establish the business from scratch.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52The thought of starting over again excites me.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55But it's in a different place, it's a completely different environment.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58What's going to happen? I don't know, it's very scary.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Jessie works with Kevin looking after the marketing side of the business.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Working and living with Kevin is interesting.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12We have different ideas on how the business should be run.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13But in Australia,
0:25:13 > 0:25:17she'd like to return to her former profession as a scientist.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20I got a degree in forensic science and that's where my passion lies.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I'd like to do...
0:25:23 > 0:25:26..some form of research and development.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Something that's going to help the world of science.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37It a big day for the couple investigating work possibilities
0:25:37 > 0:25:38in Adelaide.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Kevin's anxious today could make or break their dream.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45If we don't get the work that we want, the jobs that we want,
0:25:45 > 0:25:47then we don't get the house, the location.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49We don't get to move here.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51It could be as serious as that.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53With a degree, Jessie's the main visa applicant
0:25:53 > 0:25:56and is feeling the burden of responsibility.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58I think it's down to me.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01I feel the pressure's on to kind of provide for the family.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03If they do make the move to Adelaide, until his
0:26:03 > 0:26:07new fitness business got up and running, Kevin would work as a coach.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10So, we sent him to the Corporate Health Group
0:26:10 > 0:26:13who provide fitness programmes to large businesses.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16First up, he gets a tour with one of the team leaders, Amy.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- OK, so this is our gym area.- Yeah.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21You can see a good pool facility that we also have.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23I have a team of eight health professionals
0:26:23 > 0:26:26with a very similar background to yours
0:26:26 > 0:26:30and we roll out a range of different services to improve
0:26:30 > 0:26:33the health of South Australia's working population.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36Kevin also meets Clinical Services Director Sandra
0:26:36 > 0:26:39and he's eager to know if his fitness qualifications
0:26:39 > 0:26:40would be valid in Australia.
0:26:42 > 0:26:48Your qualification would be recognised with a couple of caveats.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52You can gain an Australian fitness certificate and once you have that,
0:26:52 > 0:26:57then you would be able to work in a range of organisations.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58That's good to hear.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Next, Kevin asks about his potential earnings.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03What kind of salary would I expect for that?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Working on a full-time basis,
0:27:05 > 0:27:08around 55,000 per year.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14That's about £27,000 - just a tad short of the £30,000 he earns
0:27:14 > 0:27:17from running his business.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20It's not a bad wage, really, for the type of work that we do.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23And finally, is there a job with Kevin's name on it?
0:27:23 > 0:27:25We have a very large number of staff
0:27:25 > 0:27:28and we would certainly be very interested in meeting with you
0:27:28 > 0:27:32and looking at potential employment in the future with you.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Excellent. Thank you.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36It's just the news that Kevin's been hoping for.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40He's wanted down under and he's happy with the wages.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Will the picture be as rosy for Jessie?
0:27:43 > 0:27:46She's visiting an Adelaide pathology service
0:27:46 > 0:27:49where she meets the expat managing director.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Hi, I'm Jessie. - Hi, Jessie, I'm Ken Barr.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54She's keen to know if her forensic science degree
0:27:54 > 0:27:56is transferrable to Australia.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Jessie, you'd need to take advice on that.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Skills for All is a government agency
0:28:00 > 0:28:03that provides help and advice on those sort of issues, and also
0:28:03 > 0:28:06the Australian Institute of Medical Scientists
0:28:06 > 0:28:08will also take a look at your degree and decide
0:28:08 > 0:28:11whether or not that's suitable or not suitable.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Mmm. That's not quite as clear-cut as she might hope.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17But as Ken explains, she does have other options.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20There's always the technical officer route.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23They do a lot of work in terms of helping the scientists
0:28:23 > 0:28:27in the laboratory to make sure that samples are ready.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30It definitely sounds like the route for me.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32So, things are looking up.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34But what about her earning capacity?
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Technical officer...
0:28:36 > 0:28:39Entry grade's around 40,000, goes up to about 55,000.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43That's between about £20,000 and £27,000.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47- That's a starting point for me. I'm happy with that.- Yeah, absolutely.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50Both Kevin and Jessie have been far from disappointed
0:28:50 > 0:28:51with what they've discovered today.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54So, will that translate into votes for Australia?
0:29:02 > 0:29:04- BOTH:- Australia.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06- Wow.- Really?
0:29:06 > 0:29:07- Seriously?- Not a surprise.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09It's good news. It's been a good day.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11You looked pretty happy when I saw you.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14It's given me my oomph to get back on the career ladder.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Two days in a row with good news.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18That's not bad, is it?
0:29:18 > 0:29:20It's pretty good.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27With work opportunities proving positive, Kevin and Jessie's dream
0:29:27 > 0:29:32of a new life down under could be one step closer to becoming a reality.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36The couple are passionate about their family leading an active existence.
0:29:36 > 0:29:40So, will a day exploring the outdoor lifestyle Australia could offer,
0:29:40 > 0:29:44convince everyone the country's where their future lies?
0:29:47 > 0:29:50The family head out of the city into the Adelaide Hills
0:29:50 > 0:29:52where they visit Four Oaks Farm.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55First up, they make some furry friends.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02Before meeting perhaps the best known Australian animal of all.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11The day outdoors is just what Jessie hoped it would be.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Today... It's been perfect.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18Seeing everyone so happy....
0:30:18 > 0:30:20I can't put it into words
0:30:20 > 0:30:23how important it was for me to have that family time.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25And it's quality time, isn't it?
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Next, they saddle up and prepare for a ride through
0:30:27 > 0:30:29the Australian bush.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Oosh!
0:30:32 > 0:30:35While Kuba and Jessie are old-timers, for Kevin,
0:30:35 > 0:30:37this is his first time on horseback.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- So, hold on to that as well? - Yeah, you can if you want.
0:30:40 > 0:30:41Hold on to everything possible!
0:30:43 > 0:30:45Absolutely loved today. Bit nervous about the horse riding,
0:30:45 > 0:30:48but really enjoyed it. Yeah, it's been good.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50Reminiscent of her earlier life in Wales,
0:30:50 > 0:30:54the Australian lifestyle gets a big thumbs up from Kuba too.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56It, like, brings back your memories of Wales,
0:30:56 > 0:30:58but then it's also like totally different.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01Like, I can imagine in summer with the beaches and stuff.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03Time spent together has given the whole family
0:31:03 > 0:31:06the opportunity to think about where they might be spending
0:31:06 > 0:31:08the rest of their lives.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Kieran feels pulled in two directions.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13If I come to Australia, I'm leaving behind
0:31:13 > 0:31:17all the family - my grandparents and my friends at home.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20If I stay at home, then I'm losing Jessie, Kevin, Jay and Kuba
0:31:20 > 0:31:23and it's really tough.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Splitting Kieran and Kuba up is something Jessie
0:31:25 > 0:31:27can't bear to think about.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31Kieran is like my son.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33He's always been treated as such.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37It would be really hurtful saying goodbye to him.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Just, like, taking the two people that are consistent
0:31:40 > 0:31:42in our family and tearing them apart
0:31:42 > 0:31:45and you feel bad about that, yeah.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46Sure.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48I would miss Kieran cos, like, we're really close
0:31:48 > 0:31:50and I see him every day.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52I'll miss Kuba as well, obviously.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55I don't... I hate to admit it, but I would.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59The reality of moving is hitting everyone hard.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03Kevin has serious concerns over what leaving his family behind
0:32:03 > 0:32:04would mean.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06I have my aunt...
0:32:07 > 0:32:10..and I'd miss her greatly.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12She's the closest thing I've got.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Yeah, it'd be tough.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29The whole family are clearly torn, struggling with a difficult decision.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32But based solely on lifestyle, how will they vote?
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Based on the lifestyle we've experienced here today,
0:32:36 > 0:32:37our vote goes to...
0:32:46 > 0:32:48- Australia!- Australia!
0:32:48 > 0:32:50What made you vote undecided?
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Because, you know, I thought the horse...
0:32:52 > 0:32:54These are things that we could do in England.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57You know, horse riding, Kuba's done it since she was a kid.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59You're halfway, so I'm always happy with that.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Find the right interest for you and I think you would have been
0:33:02 > 0:33:04swayed by the Australia vote.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06- Another positive day.- Yes, it has been good.
0:33:06 > 0:33:11And considering it's meant to be their cold season, it has been a really nice day.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13And no-one fell off the horse.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22Despite Keiran's doubts, Jessie
0:33:22 > 0:33:26and Kevin are more hopeful than ever their dream could be within reach.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29However, if it is to become a reality,
0:33:29 > 0:33:32the finances will need to stack up.
0:33:32 > 0:33:36They think their home in the UK is worth around £250,000.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40To see if their valuation is accurate, we sent round two estate agents.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43- I'm nervous already.- It's strange. - Yeah.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Quite a decent size, a nice bay window here,
0:33:45 > 0:33:49- creating lots of light into the room.- It is so strange.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- So different. - This is a really lovely room.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Good size master bedroom,
0:33:54 > 0:33:56and the views of the park are absolutely stunning.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59This is a really good indicator of what the property will
0:33:59 > 0:34:03- look like when the work has been finished.- That's nice to hear.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06'OK, so we've got the third bedroom here.'
0:34:06 > 0:34:09Obviously, at the moment, used as a storage room.
0:34:09 > 0:34:10THEY LAUGH
0:34:10 > 0:34:12So, rear garden.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15- Oh, the back garden. - Not a bad size at all.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Needs a bit of work doing to it.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21That proves we are having a lot of work done on it.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24I would recommend an asking price of 239,950,
0:34:24 > 0:34:27with a quick sale price of £224,950.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30If the building work is completed to a satisfactory standard,
0:34:30 > 0:34:33I would market this property at 225.
0:34:33 > 0:34:34To achieve a quick sale,
0:34:34 > 0:34:37then I would recommend a figure of 215,000.
0:34:37 > 0:34:39I don't think they valued it correctly. I think
0:34:39 > 0:34:42they've gone on...really,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45the influence of what they can see at the time.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49What they need to see is the work we've done to the master bedroom.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52That's how the entire house will look.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54I think if they realised that, then they would probably come up
0:34:54 > 0:34:56with a different value.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59The disappointingly low valuations are the last thing Jessie
0:34:59 > 0:35:01and Kevin wanted to hear.
0:35:01 > 0:35:05Next, they sit down to compare the cost of living in Australia
0:35:05 > 0:35:08with the UK, starting with the weekly food shop.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10I'm feeling nervous.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Are you? That's interesting.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17Surf washing powder is cheaper in Australia.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19Kale is double in this country.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22It's looking like a lot more things are more expensive in Australia
0:35:22 > 0:35:25compared to back home. So, per week,
0:35:25 > 0:35:29we are £24.29 worse off.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33At around £100 per month extra on food alone,
0:35:33 > 0:35:36it leaves the couple slightly at odds.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39- It does change things a little bit, though.- Do you think?- Mm.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42I'm not concerned.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Next, they move on to examine their bigger outgoings,
0:35:45 > 0:35:48basing their figures on the second home they viewed.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53- OK.- Well...
0:35:53 > 0:35:56it is a big difference in the mortgage.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59When all the large outgoings are taken into account,
0:35:59 > 0:36:01the difference is...
0:36:01 > 0:36:04£1,018...
0:36:04 > 0:36:08difference. So we are spending just over
0:36:08 > 0:36:13a grand more a month. That's quite a lot.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15It is a huge amount of money to be down.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18However, they both remain positive.
0:36:18 > 0:36:23We can get rid of things, but is that living the dream that we want?
0:36:23 > 0:36:26We are spending more to live better.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Yes, it is an upgrade.- Exactly.
0:36:29 > 0:36:30We've got to pay more.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34And we haven't taken into account what we'll be earning here.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37So, once their potential salaries are taken into account,
0:36:37 > 0:36:40what's the total figure?
0:36:40 > 0:36:43£344 better off.
0:36:44 > 0:36:49That's more than an extra £4,000 in their pocket each year,
0:36:49 > 0:36:51and they are delighted.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54It makes it much more...
0:36:54 > 0:36:56much more real now for us.
0:36:56 > 0:37:02We can actually do this, we can live how we have always wanted to.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04And be better off.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06That's ticking every single box.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14So, will it be a clean sweep as the couple
0:37:14 > 0:37:18choose between finances in the UK and Australia?
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- BOTH:- Australia.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29There's no surprise.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32THEY LAUGH
0:37:32 > 0:37:34You can't really argue with the figures, can you?
0:37:34 > 0:37:36No, no, it was all good.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48Whilst the week so far has shown the family how their prospects
0:37:48 > 0:37:50could improve with a move to Australia,
0:37:50 > 0:37:54one of their biggest mountains has yet to be climbed.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57The family sit down to watch messages from loved ones
0:37:57 > 0:37:58at home together.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01- ALL:- Hi, guys!
0:38:01 > 0:38:06We hope you are having a good time in Australia.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Hi, guys. I hope you are all enjoying yourselves, especially you,
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Keiran, because football is not the same without you here.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15- They are funny. - Very, actually. Good one.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18Jess has always been very close to me.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21We've been like a mother and daughter relationship.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23It's always been a friendship as well.
0:38:23 > 0:38:28Kevin is very determined and he's just a lovely boy.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32She's more like a sister than a friend, and we just
0:38:32 > 0:38:36tell each other everything, and she's always been a part of our family.
0:38:36 > 0:38:41I don't want them to go, but I will miss them.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44If she's not there, I don't know what I'm going to do exactly,
0:38:44 > 0:38:48but, yeah, I will miss them terribly if they decided to leave.
0:38:48 > 0:38:53It is his dream, and I would no more stand back and hold him from that,
0:38:53 > 0:38:57but I can't help... It's the parting.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02So... I just...
0:39:02 > 0:39:07I love him so much, and he's like my own boy.
0:39:09 > 0:39:14We'd really miss them, especially the children.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17And they've always been around, and we haven't really,
0:39:17 > 0:39:19nowhere near spent as much time with Che.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22But...
0:39:22 > 0:39:26You know, if that's what the children want,
0:39:26 > 0:39:30and that's what will make them happy, and a better lifestyle,
0:39:30 > 0:39:32we're up for it.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36- How are you feeling? - I miss it more now.- Yeah.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39Since I've been here, I've tried to put it at the back of my mind.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42- I don't know if you guys have. I miss them now.- Yes.
0:39:42 > 0:39:47Just watching my dad on the TV, you just know he's upset.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50- The quieter he is. - If he's quiet, he's upset.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Quiet. He doesn't deal with upset very well.
0:39:56 > 0:40:01It hurts, actually hurts when you watch it and to see them there.
0:40:01 > 0:40:05They give you the advice to just enjoy yourself, but...
0:40:05 > 0:40:06it still hurts.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12Throughout their week, Jessie and Kevin have been consistently
0:40:12 > 0:40:17sold on the potential new life they could be leading down under.
0:40:17 > 0:40:22But for Keiran and Kuba, it's been a very different story,
0:40:22 > 0:40:27with both having real concerns about leaving what they have in the UK.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29As their final decision draws closer,
0:40:29 > 0:40:34will the family face a future split on opposite sides of the world?
0:40:39 > 0:40:43Australia has certainly lived up to Kevin's expectations.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47The week has been fantastic.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50You've got more opportunities to do more things in the outdoors,
0:40:50 > 0:40:53knowing that you are properly not going to get affected by the weather.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56And it feels like everything is falling into place very well.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00I wasn't expecting everything to go so well. And it has. So that is good.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02And Jessie feels the country can deliver the future
0:41:02 > 0:41:06she so desperately wants for her children.
0:41:06 > 0:41:10I'm realising the quality of life Kuba could have is amazing.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12You know, she's always had good opportunities in life,
0:41:12 > 0:41:15we have given her everything. But
0:41:15 > 0:41:17can she do, or can she achieve, more?
0:41:17 > 0:41:20Yes. And the same for Che.
0:41:20 > 0:41:24But she understands this final vote could result in splitting up
0:41:24 > 0:41:27Kuba and Keiran.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30He's my little boy, that's all I can say.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33Him and Kuba are like brother and sister. He is like a son to me.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39It will be like tearing them apart if we decide to come here
0:41:39 > 0:41:40and he didn't.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43Keiran and Kuba realise opposing votes could mean
0:41:43 > 0:41:46a heart-wrenching separation from each other.
0:41:47 > 0:41:48We will miss each other.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51I mean, we were brought up like brother and sister.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53It will be really hard because he's like my friend,
0:41:53 > 0:41:56but then he is my family as well. He is like my brother.
0:41:56 > 0:42:00So it will be really hard because I won't have anybody else here.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03Whether the family will stay together rests on their final
0:42:03 > 0:42:05turn of the cards.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Based on our experiences down under,
0:42:07 > 0:42:10our vote for the country we live in goes to...
0:42:19 > 0:42:22- ALL:- Australia.- Well done. I'm so happy.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24THEY LAUGH
0:42:24 > 0:42:27That's the best. That's good news. I'm so happy.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Kuba, you voted undecided.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Yes, I think I would eventually like to live here,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34but I'm not ready for it right now.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37How about being ready after the summer holidays in the UK?
0:42:37 > 0:42:41Experience an English summer and then come out here for their summer.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- But then it is school...- That's a double summer in a year.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47I'm not sure yet.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49- I'm so pleased.- Thank you.
0:42:52 > 0:42:55You're going to be moving.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59It may not be a done deal quite yet, but who knows?
0:42:59 > 0:43:02With a little more time and persuasion,
0:43:02 > 0:43:06Kuba may come round to the idea of starting again down under.
0:43:06 > 0:43:10And with Jessie and Kevin having recently got engaged, we are
0:43:10 > 0:43:13sure the family will have a very bright future
0:43:13 > 0:43:16together on whichever side of the world they choose to spend it.
