After the second series was confirmed, show writer, creator and executive producer Danny Brocklehurst said: ‘The positive viewer response to Ten Pound Poms was a true delight.

‘I couldn’t be more thrilled to be teaming again with the BBC, Stan and Eleven to continue our characters’ adventure down under.’
Michelle recently broke her silence on quitting the UK for Hollywood.
In January, it was reported that the Brassic actress could be set for a move to Los Angeles following the success of her Netflix series Fool Me Once.
Michelle, who has been married to TOWE star Mark Wright, 37, since 2015 and is based in Essex, already has some experience of LA life because her husband lived there for a few years while working for Extra.

In an interview with The Guardian, Michelle revealed that she would consider re-locating if the perfect role came along.
She said: ‘I went to America when Mark was out there.
‘Didn’t like it. But let’s see. If a job comes up… I guess?…
‘I’ve never thought beyond what I’m doing right at that moment. And I think that’s how I live now as well. I don’t think in terms of goals. I live in the moment.’
