Series 15: Episode 19
Ben Swain had to give up his career as an Olympic diver when a knee injury left him unable to compete any more. He set his sights on another goal, believing a move to Australia was just the thing to focus on instead. Wife Katie understood that there could be positives, but she worried about leaving a successful job and close family members behind. Would a trial week help Ben’s ambitions to sink or swim? And four years since we last caught up with them, have they plunged into the deep end of a move or stayed in the shallows?
