No Going Back -type show

[liverboys]

Can anyone remember the name of a programme on BBC2 approx 5 yrs ago, it was a bit like 'no going back', where families moved to really different places to run businesses like restaurants etc? I remember one couple went to Costa Rica, I think! TIA

[Ethel]

Was that the one with the woman who looked like Barbie - even her Aga was pink.

And her husband died after they moved while she was a having a fling with the security guard employed to protect them from drug runners? But he held them up at gunpoint and robbed them?

I don't think thats the one Ethel, but it certainly sounds like its worth watching!

It was in fact Channel 4, last broadcast in 2003.

Pug100 you're a genius! Thank you so much, I will sleep soundly tonight! Is there any chance you remember the name of a channel 4 programme about English women you met, and subsequently married greek men they had met on holiday?
