Crafted by BAFTA award winner Danny Brocklehurst, this six-part series is a remarkable collaboration between Stan and the BBC, brought to life by UK production company, Eleven Film with Curio Pictures providing production services in Australia.
Ten Pound Poms delves into the lives of a group of expatriates who seize the opportunity to participate in the Ten Pound Pom initiative, bidding farewell to post-war Britain in 1956 in pursuit of a fresh start in Australia. However, their newfound existence Down Under proves far from what they had anticipated.
