0:00:02 > 0:00:06You firmly believe life will be better 10,000 miles away

0:00:06 > 0:00:08in a country you've never visited.

0:00:08 > 0:00:11But if your partner's dead set against the idea,

0:00:11 > 0:00:14how would you begin to persuade them to make the move?

0:00:14 > 0:00:18Hannah Gaj is on a mission to persuade husband Zameer

0:00:18 > 0:00:21life would be better on the other side of the world.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23She's crazy. Help!

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Yeah?

0:00:24 > 0:00:28- No!- She wants to move me to Australia on a whim.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31A trial week down under sees Hannah's dream come alive...

0:00:31 > 0:00:36It's hot and sunny and I could definitely see myself living here.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38..and has Zameer coming round.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40I'm starting to warm to the place.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42But will it be enough to persuade Zameer

0:00:42 > 0:00:45his wife's vision really could be their reality?

0:00:45 > 0:00:50I just get that underlying feeling that he's just not going to do it.

0:01:11 > 0:01:16Laid out flat, Australia's coastline would stretch around the world.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18The country's 32 times larger than the UK,

0:01:18 > 0:01:22but with just a third of the population.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26With all that space, sunshine and plenty of work opportunities,

0:01:26 > 0:01:30it's no surprise the country remains the number one destination

0:01:30 > 0:01:34for British families seeking a new life overseas.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Hannah Gaj is firmly of the opinion a move to Australia

0:01:37 > 0:01:41could dramatically improve her family's life.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Husband Zameer, however, just doesn't share the dream.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Ahead of them lies a week down under

0:01:47 > 0:01:50which will see Hannah's theory put to the test.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Then the couple will face the biggest decision of their lives.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57Whether to start a new life on the other side of the world

0:01:57 > 0:02:00or stay put in the UK.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02The family's trip down under

0:02:02 > 0:02:06begins with an arduous 22.5 hours in the air,

0:02:06 > 0:02:10flying from London to Brisbane via Dubai and Sydney.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13When they finally get their feet back on the ground,

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Hannah admits she's hardly slept a wink.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18I think I was just too excited.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22On the whole, Zameer found the journey easy enough.

0:02:22 > 0:02:23It's not as bad as I expected.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27It just had those moments where you're like, "Can this end, please?"

0:02:27 > 0:02:29We're lucky Noah slept pretty much the whole way.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32It might be a different story if he didn't.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Now he's awake, Noah's already working on the local accent.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37G'day, mate.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Zameer has mixed emotions about the week ahead.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43A little bit apprehensive but, yeah, very much excited.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47But now she's made it to Australia for the first time ever,

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Hannah's worried the country might let her down.

0:02:50 > 0:02:54I feel nervous that what I've read on the internet is not real.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57I've told Zameer what a wonderful life we can have over here

0:02:57 > 0:02:59and tried to convince him that it's great,

0:02:59 > 0:03:01and that that's not going to transpire.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I hope that doesn't happen.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06The next seven days will prove Hannah right or wrong

0:03:06 > 0:03:09and enable the family to decide once and for all

0:03:09 > 0:03:11where they will call home.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Back in the UK,

0:03:14 > 0:03:17the Gaj family live in Kingston upon Thames in Greater London.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21They are dad Zameer, mum Hannah and four-year-old Noah.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23You find all the animals.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25I found a tiger.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28Zameer loves having London on his doorstep.

0:03:28 > 0:03:29I found a fish!

0:03:29 > 0:03:33But Hannah has other ideas about where they should call home.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34She's crazy.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36Help! Yeah?

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- No!- She wants to move me to Australia.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43- On a whim.- It's not a whim.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45- It's a whim. - It's not a whim.- It's a whim.

0:03:45 > 0:03:49Hannah's been dreaming of a life down under

0:03:49 > 0:03:53ever since her grandparents visited the country ten years ago.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55They were saying how amazing it was.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57That's the seed that was planted.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01When she qualified as a nurse in 2012,

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Hannah hoped her profession would be her ticket to Australia.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06But the cost of bringing up Noah

0:04:06 > 0:04:08forced her to put plans to move on hold.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Wow!

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Three years later, her dream's back with a vengeance

0:04:12 > 0:04:16and Zameer knows she'll stop at nothing to get her way.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Hannah is very stubborn.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Whenever she wants to do something,

0:04:20 > 0:04:22most of the time, she'll get her way.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Trying to convince her of anything else is very difficult.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29Is he a goodie or a baddie?

0:04:29 > 0:04:30A goodie.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32The couple both work shifts,

0:04:32 > 0:04:36meaning they often get just one day a month together with Noah.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Though she's never visited the country,

0:04:38 > 0:04:42Hannah feels their lives could be transformed in Australia.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46I feel their vibe and their culture is more of a work-life balance,

0:04:46 > 0:04:48it's more of a relaxed lifestyle.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Yes, you have to go out to work,

0:04:49 > 0:04:55but also, it's equally important to have free time and home life.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57He's picking up a dinosaur with one hand.

0:04:57 > 0:05:01She also feels the country would offer her, Zameer and Noah

0:05:01 > 0:05:03a superior lifestyle.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07It's cold in England and it's rainy a lot of the time,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09so you do spend a lot of time indoors.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12I think being able to just get out of the house, in the sun,

0:05:12 > 0:05:14and just enjoying the outdoor space,

0:05:14 > 0:05:16I think that would be beneficial.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Just one thing stands in Hannah's way.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23Persuading Zameer to make the move isn't going to be easy.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25To leave London, such a spectacular place,

0:05:25 > 0:05:28with so much depth and history, it would take a lot of convincing.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30In a bid to improve their quality of life,

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Hannah's instigated four house moves in the last five years.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38And her choice of homes hasn't always worked out for the best.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Zameer's convinced Australia's yet another move that could backfire.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45I think he thinks that I get bored.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Before, we've just moved and it has been on a whim,

0:05:47 > 0:05:49whereas I've been planning this for so long

0:05:49 > 0:05:52that it's something that I do really want to do.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55He's worried about leaving loved ones nearby.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59I'm so lucky to have the friends that I do and family.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02And to say goodbye to all of them would be really difficult.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06And he's wary about starting again on the other side of the world.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08The financial commitment and changing jobs,

0:06:08 > 0:06:12and if it went wrong, just trying to build our life again.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16I'm not prepared to take that gamble at all.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20In a bid to convince him a move's worth the upheaval,

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Hannah spent hours researching Australia online.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27I do look on kind of property websites

0:06:27 > 0:06:29to see what property we can get,

0:06:29 > 0:06:32kind of job websites, different schools.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37I've created a whole picture for you.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39- You know exactly what to expect. - She has, kind of.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42I'm not going over there with rose-tinted glasses.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46But so far, all her efforts have fallen on deaf ears.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Fair enough, Hannah's done a lot of research.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53But to actually commit to a place without ever experiencing it

0:06:53 > 0:06:55is a completely foolish endeavour.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Hannah's determined not to give up hope.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01I feel like it may have to come to one of those situations

0:07:01 > 0:07:04where I just say it enough and he'll eventually agree!

0:07:06 > 0:07:10That's her stubbornness coming through right there.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11Ahead of them lies a week

0:07:11 > 0:07:14to discover if Australia's everything Hannah's been hoping

0:07:14 > 0:07:18and persuade Zameer it's where they should be.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25For their trial week,

0:07:25 > 0:07:28the family are visiting Brisbane on Australia's East Coast.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Home to nearly two million people,

0:07:30 > 0:07:33the city enjoys a subtropical climate.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Home for the week is a three-bedroom house in West End,

0:07:37 > 0:07:40a cosmopolitan inner-city suburb.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42But will their first taste of Aussie living

0:07:42 > 0:07:44be everything Hannah's been hoping for?

0:07:44 > 0:07:46This way. Shall we go in?

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Typically Australian in layout,

0:07:50 > 0:07:53the open-plan design mixes old and new.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Whoa!

0:07:56 > 0:07:59- It's amazing!- Is it amazing?!

0:07:59 > 0:08:02This is really nice.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05- High ceilings, period features. - Yeah.- I love it.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07Everyone's happy

0:08:07 > 0:08:11and a quick peek at the bedroom scores another point with Hannah.

0:08:11 > 0:08:12Lots of wardrobe space,

0:08:12 > 0:08:16cos I literally packed my whole wardrobe, so that's good.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Outside, Zameer's equally impressed with the garden.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23- This is lovely.- Oh, this is nice.

0:08:23 > 0:08:28- This whole open-plan deck thing's lovely.- I told you.- Love it.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30This way.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33As Noah has an impromptu kickabout with Dad,

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Hannah's happy with her Australian experience so far.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42My first impressions - it's hot and sunny.

0:08:42 > 0:08:47I could definitely see myself living here.

0:08:47 > 0:08:51Zameer knows his wife's campaign to make the country their home

0:08:51 > 0:08:53will step up a gear in the days ahead.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Hannah's feeling super-excited.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57I think that she's going to use every opportunity

0:08:57 > 0:08:59to highlight what's great about Australia.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Ultimately, though, she knows her dream's at stake

0:09:02 > 0:09:04if the country fails to show Zameer proof

0:09:04 > 0:09:07they'll have a better life down under.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09I have no idea about Zameer's opportunities here,

0:09:09 > 0:09:10so that is my biggest concern,

0:09:10 > 0:09:14cos if there isn't any for him, then that's it.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17It has to be right for me.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20And if that's not the case, I'm not going to make the move.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22End of story, basically, with me.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Back in the UK, Zameer, Hannah and Noah

0:09:34 > 0:09:38live in a rented two-bedroom apartment in Kingston upon Thames.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40It's very convenient.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43We're ten minutes from the train station and the town centre.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47But it's not big enough for our needs.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49If Hannah gets her way,

0:09:49 > 0:09:52the couple will be buying their first house in Australia.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56And she's got some grand ideas when it comes to her ideal home.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Four bedrooms, really big, fancy swimming pool.

0:09:59 > 0:10:04Indoor-outdoor living, so I'd have a decking area with a big dining table

0:10:04 > 0:10:08and then maybe a Jacuzzi next to the swimming pool.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Huge, open-plan, maybe two living rooms,

0:10:10 > 0:10:13then one for a playroom, one as, like, a snug room.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Really modern.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19High ceilings, cos I don't like the boxy new-builds.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23The couple's budget is around £350,000.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26But Zameer's expectations are more humble.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30- I just want...enough space for all of us, that's it.- And light.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34To find out what kind of house they could have in Australia,

0:10:34 > 0:10:38today, we'll show Zameer and Hannah three properties,

0:10:38 > 0:10:42two on budget and a third which could be their dream home.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45Only after they've seen each one will they find out its value.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50The search gets going in Forest Lake,

0:10:50 > 0:10:53just over 11 miles from central Brisbane.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58With excellent transport links, it's perfect for commuters.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01And shops, schools and recreational facilities close by

0:11:01 > 0:11:03make it popular with families.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08But will this four-bedroom cottage-style home

0:11:08 > 0:11:10meet Hannah's high expectations?

0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Pretty garden.- It's lovely.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16Regardless of the rain, it's a promising start.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18This is really nice.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Lot of space.- I like that.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25I think this could be your playroom where we keep all your toys.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29The spacious master bedroom with en suite impresses everyone.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32- Wow!- Very nice.- Look how big it is.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35And the walk-in wardrobe's a hit with Hannah.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38- SHE GASPS - Oh, my God!

0:11:38 > 0:11:40Oh, my God, I love it. I need one of these.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45This property has the open-plan living style Hannah desired.

0:11:45 > 0:11:48- This is lovely.- That's really nice.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50And the kitchen's not short on space.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54Oh, look how much storage. I do love storage.

0:11:54 > 0:11:58It's a little bit dark, but I suppose it's a dark day.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00But it's definitely a good size.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02And I love the floors.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06Moving on, the family bathroom scores a few more points.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08- I like this.- Hot tub.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11I like the mirror. That's a good make-up light.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14The interiors of this house have pleased Hannah and Zameer.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16And outside...

0:12:16 > 0:12:18- Wow!- This is lovely.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21You'd just spend most of your time here.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Wow, this is amazing.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27Complete with two alfresco dining areas and a pool,

0:12:27 > 0:12:31it's everything Hannah wanted, and Zameer seems happy, too.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35I was expecting to, like, have a really mini swimming pool.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36- It's massive.- It's lovely.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39- I'd buy it just for this. - Yeah!- Yeah!

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Before Hannah gets too excited, though,

0:12:43 > 0:12:47the couple need to find out how much this house costs.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48So, what do you think it's worth?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50If this same place was in the area we live in,

0:12:50 > 0:12:53you're looking at probably a cool mil.

0:12:53 > 0:12:57I'm going to go for 475. What are you going for?

0:12:57 > 0:12:59I'm going for 500.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03Their budget is £350,000.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05- Are you ready?- Yeah, go ahead.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12- What?!- No!

0:13:14 > 0:13:18- 283,000?- 283,000.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21That's £67,000 under budget.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23- That's nothing, really.- Can we buy?

0:13:23 > 0:13:25- No.- Why?

0:13:25 > 0:13:27- That's more than achievable.- Yeah.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30I mean, we could definitely hit that mark.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Zameer's not sold yet,

0:13:31 > 0:13:34but the Gajs' property search is off to a solid start,

0:13:34 > 0:13:36despite the wet weather.

0:13:40 > 0:13:41For their next viewing,

0:13:41 > 0:13:45the family move to the popular inner-city suburb of Greenslopes.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Closer to the city centre

0:13:47 > 0:13:50and with access to excellent schools and amenities,

0:13:50 > 0:13:53it's a sought-after area for both families and investors.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55But will this three-bedroom house

0:13:55 > 0:13:58be somewhere the couple could see themselves living?

0:14:00 > 0:14:04While Noah takes a break, the couple move inside to find out.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08This is lovely, Hannah. This has character.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11A lot of character as soon as you walk in.

0:14:11 > 0:14:15Recently renovated, Zameer feels at home straightaway.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17- Yeah, I like this. - This is really nice.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Very clean, minimalist kind of look.

0:14:19 > 0:14:20That's the kind of thing I go for.

0:14:20 > 0:14:24- And really tall ceilings. - Yeah. Very airy.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28Modern, but not boxy, it's exactly what Hannah wanted.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31- Oh, wow.- This is a really nice space.- This is really nice.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34And I love the stained-glass windows.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37It's really cute. It's like a snug area.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41Boasting brand-new appliances, the kitchen works for Zameer.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43- It's a nice-size kitchen.- Yeah.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46But Hannah doesn't sound so sure.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49It's not massive, but I like that it's central.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's open and it's lovely.

0:14:51 > 0:14:55Zameer might be slowly coming around to having an Aussie home.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58But there could be one problem fitting in.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Do you reckon you'd fit in there?

0:15:00 > 0:15:02- It's a good child bath.- Yeah.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04But at least the shower's big enough.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06It's a lovely big sink as well.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Yeah, it's really good. It's really nice.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13It's smaller than the last house, but this property's gone down well.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18And the outside space is just perfect for Hannah.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20This is what I imagined, being able to open the doors

0:15:20 > 0:15:24and just go straight into, like, the outside space.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Torrential rain wasn't on her wish list,

0:15:26 > 0:15:29but the swimming pool's a winner.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30It's bigger than the last place.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- That is massive.- Yeah.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36It's been another house Hannah would be happy with,

0:15:36 > 0:15:39but with £350,000 to spend,

0:15:39 > 0:15:41will it be within the couple's reach?

0:15:41 > 0:15:43How much do you think it is?

0:15:43 > 0:15:47I think maybe 300. I'm guessing.

0:15:47 > 0:15:52I'm going to go for 350, just cos it's quite close to the centre,

0:15:52 > 0:15:54quite local to everything.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56- Shall I turn it?- Yeah.- Big reveal.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- Wow.- 390.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09That's £40,000 over budget.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13It's a bit over our budget, but...

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Well, no, it's the top of our budget.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18- 400 is top-top.- Yeah.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- I like this place.- I think that's a reasonable price.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22- And we could afford it.- Yeah.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25I'm happy with that.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28- Cool.- Shall we go and see the next one?- Yeah, let's go.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Refusing to let the price wash away her dream,

0:16:31 > 0:16:35the day's going in Hannah's favour so far.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38The family head off to the coastal village of Sandgate.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42An eclectic mix of cafes and shops and a nearby beach

0:16:42 > 0:16:45mean it's another area popular with families.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49We think this four-bedroom house could be the Gajs' dream home.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51But will Hannah and Zameer agree?

0:16:51 > 0:16:54- Wow.- OK, this is big.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57- This is huge.- Huge!

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Split over two floors,

0:17:04 > 0:17:07this bright, modern house promises plenty of what Hannah fancies.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11This bathroom is you, definitely.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15- I love the mirror. - You love the black tiles.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17In fact, the tiles even match the mirror.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- That's the kind of detail I like. - It looks great.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23And the funky furnishings in the open-plan living area

0:17:23 > 0:17:24catch her eye, too.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Oh! I could just spend all day looking at myself.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32With more cupboards than you could fill and top-of-the-range appliances,

0:17:32 > 0:17:34the kitchen's a real showpiece.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37- This is very modern.- Wow! This is so nice.

0:17:37 > 0:17:40- It's very bold as well, with the black and white.- I love it.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Hannah's sold, but what about Zameer?

0:17:43 > 0:17:46But I think it's a bit too garish.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48What's garish about it?

0:17:48 > 0:17:51It's just the black, the white, it's quite striking. No?

0:17:51 > 0:17:53- No.- It's very bold.- No, I disagree.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58There's no time for domestics!

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Staying dry, the couple admire the gardens from the inside.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04That's really nice, looking onto the outside.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07That pool just looks magnificent.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08Pity it's raining.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14Upstairs, four double bedrooms, a cinema room

0:18:14 > 0:18:16and a huge master bedroom await.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Wow!

0:18:18 > 0:18:22This house is everything Hannah's wanted and more.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24- Wow! - SHE LAUGHS

0:18:25 > 0:18:26Whoa!

0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Whoa!- His and hers sinks.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32You clean yours, I'll clean mine.

0:18:32 > 0:18:37- Oh, my God, I love the bath. - I love it, too.- Do you?

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Zameer might not be saying much,

0:18:38 > 0:18:41but Hannah's definitely found an ally in Noah.

0:18:43 > 0:18:44How cool is this?

0:18:46 > 0:18:48How much stuff do you reckon I could fit in here?

0:18:48 > 0:18:50- Loads.- Exactly.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52You don't get any of it.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54The excitement continues

0:18:54 > 0:18:58when they discover the perfect little boy's room next door.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00This is my room!

0:19:00 > 0:19:01This is so nice.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- This is the best room, isn't it? - I agree. This IS the best room.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06It's the best room.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09It's safe to say Hannah's found the perfect property.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11But is Zameer in agreement?

0:19:11 > 0:19:12This is like Mummy's dream house.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15This isn't really Daddy's dream house, is it?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20It may not be the property to persuade Zameer to move,

0:19:20 > 0:19:22but with £350,000 to spend,

0:19:22 > 0:19:26can they even afford a house like this?

0:19:26 > 0:19:29I don't know. It's going to be really horrifically expensive.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32600, maybe? 650.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35It's close to the beach, it's close to the centre.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38It's a really nice area.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Time to find out if the house of her dreams is within Hannah's reach.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44I don't want to, cos I really like it

0:19:44 > 0:19:46and I'll be really upset if it's expensive.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55467,000.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Ah.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00That's actually quite... It's cheaper than I thought it would be.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03That's £117,000 over budget.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05It's cheaper than I thought.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07- I thought it was that. - Did you?- Yeah.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10I'm happy that you can't have it, basically!

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- Oh, but I really like it.- I don't.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Despite a disappointing end for Hannah,

0:20:16 > 0:20:21on the whole, the couple's day house-hunting has been promising.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Property one had the pool and space Hannah wanted

0:20:24 > 0:20:28and, at £67,000 under budget, the price was a bonus.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31With its modern interiors,

0:20:31 > 0:20:35property two seemed to charm both Hannah and Zameer.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37Even with a bath on the petite side.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42And while the final property really was Hannah's ultimate home,

0:20:42 > 0:20:46the style wasn't quite to Zameer's taste and neither was the price.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51So, after everything they've seen, what will the couple choose

0:20:51 > 0:20:55when it comes to picking between property in the UK or Australia?

0:20:55 > 0:20:59Based on the three properties we've seen today,

0:20:59 > 0:21:00we're going to vote for...

0:21:09 > 0:21:12- Australia.- Yeah.- Did you?

0:21:12 > 0:21:16We're more likely to get a nicer place with the money we have

0:21:16 > 0:21:18and have a nice size compared to the UK.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21- Yeah, definitely. - Definitely.- Definitely.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23- I'm pleased with that.- Are you?

0:21:23 > 0:21:24Yeah.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Slowly, slowly, I can crack you.

0:21:27 > 0:21:28ZAMEER LAUGHS

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Zameer's vote for Australia is a great start to Hannah's week.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41But her victory could be short-lived if the couple can't find the jobs

0:21:41 > 0:21:44to afford the Australian lifestyle she dreams of.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Back in the UK, Hannah and Zameer juggle shiftwork

0:21:49 > 0:21:51with looking after Noah.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54Having qualified as a nurse in 2012,

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Hannah spent the last year and a half studying midwifery.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59It's been a very intense 18 months,

0:21:59 > 0:22:02but at no point did I doubt that being a midwife

0:22:02 > 0:22:04is something that I wanted to do.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Could you repeat the last on the teams in North, please?

0:22:08 > 0:22:09Zameer's an operational manager

0:22:09 > 0:22:12responsible for deployment of security staff

0:22:12 > 0:22:14at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17It's a very vibrant area and there's lots of different personalities

0:22:17 > 0:22:20and no two days are the same, and it's just a fantastic place to work.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23Hannah's hopeful the time she spent studying

0:22:23 > 0:22:26will stand her in good stead in Australia.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30If I go to Australia and find out that there's no jobs

0:22:30 > 0:22:33or that my salary isn't what I expected,

0:22:33 > 0:22:35I don't know what I would do.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I don't think I'd even let myself think about it.

0:22:38 > 0:22:39Everything all right?

0:22:39 > 0:22:44But persuading Zameer to leave his career behind won't be easy.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46If we emigrated, I'd really miss my job.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49I'd miss my job, I'd miss my colleagues.

0:22:49 > 0:22:50They're all fantastic.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57While Noah's looked after by a childminder,

0:22:57 > 0:23:01the couple set out to explore work prospects down under.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Hannah's visiting the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital,

0:23:04 > 0:23:05where we've set up a meeting

0:23:05 > 0:23:08with clinical midwife consultant Libby Ryan.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12- Hi, Hannah. I'm Libby. - Nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15First up, a tour of maternity facilities.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18So, this is one of our beautiful birth centre rooms.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21- It's lovely.- It is lovely. - It's a really, really nice room.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23It's an impressive set-up

0:23:23 > 0:23:26and Hannah's keen to know if she could be part of it.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28What kind of opportunities are there here in Australia

0:23:28 > 0:23:30for me and my qualifications?

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I think you've got a very good chance

0:23:32 > 0:23:33of getting a job in Australia.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36There's a shortage of midwives everywhere.

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Do I need to have any postgraduate experience as a midwife?

0:23:38 > 0:23:40No, you don't.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43We would put you in a role that you could go in all areas of care.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- You get a little bit of everything.- Yeah.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48And we rotate you through all the different areas.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52It really could be a case of right place, right time, for Hannah.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55Meanwhile, Zameer's starting his day with an open mind.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58If I know that I could come out here and get a job,

0:23:58 > 0:24:01and I can get a decent amount of money,

0:24:01 > 0:24:04that would push me more into coming to Australia

0:24:04 > 0:24:07as opposed to being on the fence.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10He's gone to Brisbane International Airport

0:24:10 > 0:24:12and meets site manager Paul Sharman.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15- How are you doing?- Hi.- I'm Paul. - Nice to meet you, Paul.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18- Go and have a look around? - Yes, I would love to. Cheers.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22Paul advises Zameer he'd have to complete a week-long course

0:24:22 > 0:24:25to work in airport security in Australia.

0:24:25 > 0:24:30And after checking out the set-up, Zameer's keen to find out more.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32So, would you say someone with my skills

0:24:32 > 0:24:35would find it easy to get a job here?

0:24:35 > 0:24:39Absolutely. There's not many people with your experience,

0:24:39 > 0:24:42so I think it would be fairly easy, I would have thought,

0:24:42 > 0:24:44for you to get employment.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46That's welcome news.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Do you have any roles currently?

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Look, we're always recruiting screeners.

0:24:51 > 0:24:55And that may be your best option, to do a short while of doing that,

0:24:55 > 0:24:58to get to know how we do things out in Australia.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Having allocated security staff at Britain's biggest terminal,

0:25:01 > 0:25:05becoming a screener would be a big step back for Zameer.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Meanwhile, back at the hospital,

0:25:07 > 0:25:10Hannah's finding out if being a midwife in Australia

0:25:10 > 0:25:13would facilitate the family time she so badly wants.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16The rosters are usually family friendly.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18Antenatal clinic's good when you have little people,

0:25:18 > 0:25:20- because it's daytime hours.- Yeah.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23But then you've got shiftwork all over the place

0:25:23 > 0:25:25if you're on the ward or birth suite.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27- There's so many options at this hospital.- Yeah.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30- It sounds really good.- Yeah. - Really encouraging.- Yeah.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33What kind of salary would I expect as a newly qualified midwife?

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Our starting is 62,000 Australian,

0:25:36 > 0:25:39and that's with no shiftwork.

0:25:39 > 0:25:40Just under £30,000

0:25:40 > 0:25:44is around £4,000 more than Hannah's basic salary in the UK.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47And she could earn more with experience.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51Some of our midwives are earning up to 100,000 a year.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53- That's nice.- Yes!

0:25:53 > 0:25:56- I like that answer.- Yeah, it's good.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58It's been a great meeting for Hannah

0:25:58 > 0:26:01and proof that her studies could really pay off in Australia.

0:26:01 > 0:26:07I'm very, very happy, and I can't wait to tell Zameer the news

0:26:07 > 0:26:10that we'll be moving here very soon!

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Back at the airport,

0:26:14 > 0:26:18Zameer's moved on to find out about potential working hours.

0:26:18 > 0:26:19Is there very much shiftwork?

0:26:19 > 0:26:22For a screening officer, we basically work 24 hours.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25Some of the shifts we've got are four-hour shifts.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Some of them are 12-hour shifts.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30It just depends what your particular job is on that day.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33With hours similar to at home

0:26:33 > 0:26:37and a screener's basic salary set at around £25,000,

0:26:37 > 0:26:40Zameer could be worse off working down under.

0:26:40 > 0:26:41But Paul assures him

0:26:41 > 0:26:45he could quickly work his way up to a shift supervisor role.

0:26:45 > 0:26:49They're probably looking around 60,000, 65,000,

0:26:49 > 0:26:51and they do four days on, four days off,

0:26:51 > 0:26:53on a 12-hour shift pattern.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55That sounds good.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59Around £30,000 is better news.

0:26:59 > 0:27:03And the shift pattern could give Zameer time with the family.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06So, how will their findings impact on Hannah's plan to move

0:27:06 > 0:27:10as the couple vote on work in Australia versus the UK?

0:27:10 > 0:27:14Based on what we've learnt on our jobs day, our vote goes to...

0:27:25 > 0:27:29- Austr... Oh, God.- UK.

0:27:29 > 0:27:30Why?

0:27:30 > 0:27:34It's just basically because I know I'm comfortable in my job in the UK.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36- That's such rubbish.- That's why...

0:27:36 > 0:27:39If I start off as a screener, I'd earn about 50.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42- Pounds or dollars?- Dollars.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44And then management would be 65.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46For me, it's 1-1.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48It's a draw at the minute. No?

0:27:48 > 0:27:50- No.- Oh.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53HE SIGHS

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Zameer's reluctance to leave the job he loves

0:28:03 > 0:28:06may mean Hannah's now facing an uphill struggle

0:28:06 > 0:28:08if she's ever to convince him

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Australia's where the family should be.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13At the heart of her desire to move

0:28:13 > 0:28:17is the opportunity to spend more time together as a family.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20So, will a day sampling the Aussie lifestyle

0:28:20 > 0:28:22be enough to persuade Zameer

0:28:22 > 0:28:25professional sacrifice is a price worth paying?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30The family head off to explore Brisbane's South Bank.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Covering 17 hectares,

0:28:32 > 0:28:35it's home to lush gardens, cafes and river views.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37And for once, the sun's shining.

0:28:37 > 0:28:40- Wow! That's so cool. - Yeah, look at it.

0:28:40 > 0:28:44- Look at all the sandcastles you can build.- Lovely.

0:28:44 > 0:28:48With its man-made beach, South Bank's a magnet for families,

0:28:48 > 0:28:51and Noah can't wait to dive right in.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Freezing! - HANNAH LAUGHS

0:28:54 > 0:28:56Do paddle-paddle.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59It's somewhere Hannah can picture spending more time.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02This is definitely the environment I'd like for Noah.

0:29:02 > 0:29:03He loves the water.

0:29:03 > 0:29:07And she's confident the chance to spend time with his son

0:29:07 > 0:29:09could be winning over Zameer.

0:29:11 > 0:29:15This could possibly persuade him to come here,

0:29:15 > 0:29:16to do this more often.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19The turn in temperature could mean she's right.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21I could get used to this lifestyle. It's really good.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Just having that contrasting weather where you had all that rain

0:29:24 > 0:29:27and now we've got just heat, it's amazing.

0:29:27 > 0:29:29It's amazing.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31- Say "cheese".- Cheese!

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Having worked up an appetite, the family move on

0:29:33 > 0:29:35for a picnic in the park.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38- We'd definitely come here all the time if we lived here.- Yeah.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42- Who's hungry?- Me!

0:29:42 > 0:29:47Noah's loving spending quality time with both Mum and Dad.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50What's been your favourite part of the day, Noah?

0:29:50 > 0:29:53- Um... Picnic. - Oh, you enjoyed the picnic?

0:29:53 > 0:29:55That's nice.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57We could do this all the time if we lived here.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59It's been a perfect day out

0:29:59 > 0:30:02and only increased Hannah's desire to call Australia home.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Such a nice place for children.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08And he's having so much fun and he's, you know...

0:30:08 > 0:30:11I don't know, I just feel really settled here.

0:30:11 > 0:30:14It's a lovely place to live.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16I am, I'm starting to warm to the place.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18Despite his disappointing work prospects,

0:30:18 > 0:30:22the day could be nudging Zameer towards the life Hannah dreams of.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24My wish to stay in the UK,

0:30:24 > 0:30:26it's made it a lot harder to hold on to,

0:30:26 > 0:30:28because there's just so many things here

0:30:28 > 0:30:30that you think, "Wow," you know?

0:30:30 > 0:30:34And it just seems to be shaking my foundations a bit.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37But at the same time, he admits he's struggling

0:30:37 > 0:30:41when his thoughts turn to who he'd have to leave behind in the UK.

0:30:41 > 0:30:46To be without my friends and family would be very difficult.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48Breaking those ties almost...

0:30:48 > 0:30:52not forever, but it's not going to be the same if I move out here.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53And that's my biggest fear.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Zameer could be torn between his wife's dream

0:30:58 > 0:31:00and bonds with home come the end of the week.

0:31:00 > 0:31:04But for now, it's time to find out if the lifestyle has done enough

0:31:04 > 0:31:06to secure another vote for Australia.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08We're going to vote for...

0:31:19 > 0:31:21- Australia.- Australia.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24- Australia.- You can't knock it. It's been amazing.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26It's been such a carefree day.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29- It just feels so relaxed. - I agree with you.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31I think it's such an easy thing to do.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34- Do you agree?- Yeah. - Good. All agreed.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43Despite Zameer's concerns about leaving loved ones,

0:31:43 > 0:31:46the Australian lifestyle proved enough

0:31:46 > 0:31:48to put Hannah's dream back on track.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51But with Zameer faced with a potential pay cut,

0:31:51 > 0:31:55she knows she'll be back to square one if she can't convince him

0:31:55 > 0:31:58the move won't leave them struggling to make ends meet.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02While Noah plays,

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Hannah and Zameer prepare to work out how finances in Australia

0:32:05 > 0:32:07compare with the UK.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10Is this the thing that sends you hurtling down to earth?

0:32:10 > 0:32:14- HE IMITATES EXPLOSION - Yeah, pretty much. Yeah.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17The number crunching begins with a look at their weekly shop.

0:32:17 > 0:32:21Strawberry jam... Oh, it's 20p cheaper.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23Bolognese sauce - 1.04.

0:32:23 > 0:32:27Oh, that's cheaper as well. That's good. I like that.

0:32:27 > 0:32:28Chips...

0:32:28 > 0:32:31- More expensive. - That's a lot more expensive.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33You can cut that habit. You probably need to.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35Ha-ha-ha(!)

0:32:35 > 0:32:40- Bagels - £1.50 more expensive. - Really? Man!

0:32:40 > 0:32:43- You can give those up. - Bagels are just...

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Australia's going to be like a diet for you.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50A run through the figures reveals how much they'd spend on food every week.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Comes to...

0:32:52 > 0:32:56144.06.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58It's not bad.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02- 51p difference. - 51p more expensive in Australia.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05- That's nothing. - Yeah, we could manage.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Next up, the bigger monthly bills.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09The couple base their mortgage payments

0:33:09 > 0:33:12on the second property they viewed.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15The mortgage in Australia will be...

0:33:15 > 0:33:191,717.

0:33:19 > 0:33:20That's a lot.

0:33:20 > 0:33:25Which is what I'm worried about with your wage,

0:33:25 > 0:33:27things like this being more expensive.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Hannah anxiously takes a look at the rest.

0:33:30 > 0:33:34- Council tax - 86.01.- Yeah.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37- Water - 47.67.- Yeah.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41- Phone, internet - 46.63.- Yeah.

0:33:41 > 0:33:47But when they add everything up, things look better than expected.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50So, 3,507...

0:33:50 > 0:33:533,507.17.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56- Which is cheaper, which is nice. - Is it?- Yeah.

0:33:58 > 0:33:59Even with a high mortgage payment,

0:33:59 > 0:34:04they'd be spending almost £65 less in Australia every month.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08I like that. I'm very pleased with that.

0:34:08 > 0:34:11It's great news for Hannah, and things continue to look good

0:34:11 > 0:34:13when she factors in her potential earnings.

0:34:13 > 0:34:17My salary after tax in the UK is 1,300.

0:34:17 > 0:34:23But in Australia, it would be £2,045.60.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26So, the difference in your income would be...

0:34:26 > 0:34:29745.

0:34:29 > 0:34:33- I particularly enjoyed that part. - Oh, look...

0:34:33 > 0:34:36Zameer's salary difference, though, isn't so positive.

0:34:36 > 0:34:38- Yeah.- So, you're minus...

0:34:38 > 0:34:40217.62.

0:34:40 > 0:34:46In the UK, the couple spend £272 more than they earn every month.

0:34:46 > 0:34:47But the final sums show,

0:34:47 > 0:34:50in Australia, they'd have money left over.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54And we're £592 better off living in Australia.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57I knew I was right. I'm rarely wrong.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Better off.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02We can have a little smiley face.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05And a "yay".

0:35:08 > 0:35:09There you go.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13Discovering they'd be so much better off

0:35:13 > 0:35:17adds more ammunition to Hannah's argument for moving.

0:35:17 > 0:35:22So, when it comes to finances, will Zameer vote UK or Australia?

0:35:22 > 0:35:25Based on our reality check, our vote goes to...

0:35:35 > 0:35:37- Australia.- Australia.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44- Are you happy?- Yeah. I'm happy.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Yeah, can't really...

0:35:46 > 0:35:49I'm trying to think of ways I could just say no.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51But... Yeah, it's not happening.

0:35:51 > 0:35:52No.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04With Australia promising more property for their money than London

0:36:04 > 0:36:06and greater financial security,

0:36:06 > 0:36:09it looks like Hannah's dream is definitely within reach.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12But it's not a done deal yet.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15Choosing to watch messages from loved ones together,

0:36:15 > 0:36:16Hannah's all too aware

0:36:16 > 0:36:20family ties could prove the ultimate stumbling block for Zameer.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24So, Noah, we're going to watch a video

0:36:24 > 0:36:28of all the family back home in the UK, OK?

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Ready? Here we go, guys.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- BOTH:- Hi, Zameer, Hannah, Noah.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39- BOTH:- Hi, Zameer, Hannah, Noah.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41- Hi, Hannah, Zameer, Noah. - Hi, Hannah, Zameer and Noah.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44Hope you're having fun in Australia.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46I can't imagine them being so far away.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49They're a great team and they've bonded and they've grown

0:36:49 > 0:36:51in the last four and a half years

0:36:51 > 0:36:54since Noah was born, and I'm really proud of them.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56Zameer may not know it,

0:36:56 > 0:37:00but he should know that I actually care about him and he's, like...

0:37:00 > 0:37:02He used to be my favourite sibling at one point.

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Used to! You see that? Past tense.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08Noah's the only great-grandchild.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10It was always a bit of a joke with Hannah to say,

0:37:10 > 0:37:13"When are you going to make me a great-grandma, Hannah?"

0:37:13 > 0:37:15And she did.

0:37:15 > 0:37:19And now he's four and a half.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22It's just magic having him around.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25Noah is very, very close to me

0:37:25 > 0:37:28and whenever he sees me, he just jumps up and hugs me,

0:37:28 > 0:37:30and I'm going to miss all that when Noah moves.

0:37:30 > 0:37:34It's something that is going to take me a long time to get used to.

0:37:34 > 0:37:36I think they're going to have to move out of London.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39I think Australia could be a good option for them.

0:37:39 > 0:37:42You know, I think she sees Australia as quite an opportunity,

0:37:42 > 0:37:44and so she should at their age.

0:37:44 > 0:37:49If they decide that the quality of life is better there than here,

0:37:49 > 0:37:52the three of them, then they should go there.

0:37:52 > 0:37:58I would not like them to go to Australia. That's my final answer.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01Because Noah means a lot to me.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04The distance is just too far.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07Even living in London, not seeing him for a few weeks,

0:38:07 > 0:38:09you think, "Oh, he's going to forget me."

0:38:09 > 0:38:13Or, "He's not going to love me as much as everybody else."

0:38:13 > 0:38:15- We love him so much.- Yeah, we do.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17I think that's the biggest thing if Hannah went.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Finally, it's your decision.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23And even if I'm not happy about it,

0:38:23 > 0:38:26at the end of the day, it's your life.

0:38:26 > 0:38:31So, you think about it and make the decision accordingly.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35Hannah, Zameer, love you lots, unconditionally.

0:38:35 > 0:38:37I think you need to do what's best for you.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40I will always keep in touch, I will always visit,

0:38:40 > 0:38:42I will always love you, and you know that,

0:38:42 > 0:38:45and I'm at the end of a phone, no matter where you are in the world.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48You do what's best for you and I'll still be there.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51Ahh.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53How do you feel watching that?

0:38:53 > 0:38:56Uh... Well, the gist I got was that...

0:38:56 > 0:39:00everyone's going to miss Noah, and maybe Hannah and Zameer.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Isn't it?

0:39:02 > 0:39:03And...

0:39:03 > 0:39:05Yeah, it's always upsetting,

0:39:05 > 0:39:08and I knew my family are kind of resistant to us coming out here.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11- Yeah. - Basically because we're so far away.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13They were also being quite encouraging about it.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15It's a bit like, "We don't want you to go,

0:39:15 > 0:39:19"but we kind of know you're going to go, so we'll support you."

0:39:19 > 0:39:21To be removed and not...

0:39:21 > 0:39:23you know, it being a gamble whether I see them or not,

0:39:23 > 0:39:25it's going to be a big deal.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31For Hannah and Zameer,

0:39:31 > 0:39:35watching messages from home has been a touching reminder

0:39:35 > 0:39:37of how supportive their families are.

0:39:37 > 0:39:42While Hannah remains convinced they can get by so far from loved ones,

0:39:42 > 0:39:47Zameer appears torn over the prospect of leaving them behind.

0:39:47 > 0:39:51With their final vote approaching, will his doubts be enough

0:39:51 > 0:39:55to ground Hannah's flights of fancy once and for all?

0:39:55 > 0:39:59- See the river, Noah? - Look how big the river is.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Arriving in Australia a week ago,

0:40:02 > 0:40:04Hannah was desperate to persuade Zameer

0:40:04 > 0:40:08her dream life down under was based on more than a whim,

0:40:08 > 0:40:11and she feels their first taste of the country's proved her right.

0:40:11 > 0:40:15Everything that I've seen this week has just kind of solidified

0:40:15 > 0:40:18everything that I've thought for the past couple of years.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20I'm even more determined to come out here.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23So, yeah, I hope Zameer does come around.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25Abracadabra!

0:40:25 > 0:40:28Despite his initial opposition,

0:40:28 > 0:40:31the week's shown Zameer plenty of potential.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Australia's been fantastic. I can't really knock it.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Compare every little detail to everything in the UK

0:40:37 > 0:40:44and Australia just comes up trumps on most things.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46So, it's hard to argue against.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50The laid-back Australian lifestyle

0:40:50 > 0:40:53was everything Hannah wants for her family.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56Just seeing how much fun Noah was having

0:40:56 > 0:40:58and Zameer really relaxing and enjoying himself.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01I don't really see him do that often at home,

0:41:01 > 0:41:04so that's definitely been my favourite part of the week.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06But despite everything it offers,

0:41:06 > 0:41:08Zameer's still struggling with the thought

0:41:08 > 0:41:10of leaving loved ones at home.

0:41:10 > 0:41:15If we did this move, I think I'd miss my family a lot.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17It would take its toll on me.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19It would be heartbreaking for me.

0:41:19 > 0:41:23And Hannah fears his concerns will put paid to her dream.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25I somehow feel that it's just not been enough.

0:41:27 > 0:41:31I just get that underlying feeling that he's just not going to do it.

0:41:31 > 0:41:34The last seven days have been Hannah's best shot

0:41:34 > 0:41:37at convincing Zameer to buy into a life down under.

0:41:37 > 0:41:40And as their final vote creeps closer,

0:41:40 > 0:41:42she knows it really is now or never.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44If we don't vote the same way today

0:41:44 > 0:41:47and Zameer is really insistent he wants to stay in the UK,

0:41:47 > 0:41:51it will just be one of those things that, forever, you think, "What if?

0:41:51 > 0:41:54"What if we did move out here? What would our life have been like?"

0:41:54 > 0:41:56I don't want to look back in, like, ten years' time

0:41:56 > 0:41:59and regret not doing it.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Time to find out if the Gajs' trial week

0:42:01 > 0:42:05has done enough to secure Hannah the future she's wanted for so long.

0:42:05 > 0:42:09Based on our week living in Australia, our final vote goes to...

0:42:21 > 0:42:23- BOTH:- Australia.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27- For sure, for sure? - For sure, for sure.
