'It's a second migration for the Habib family, first it was Lebanon to Australia, now Lakemba to Vaucluse. But not everyone is happy to see them, and soon the Habibs find themselves in conflict with their new next door neighbours. The O'Neills are Vaucluse royalty - old money and proud of it. They're extremely uncomfortable with goats and chickens, shisha pipes and people of Mediterranean appearance, but the Habibs can't understand what all the fuss is about. One family want to stay, the other family want them gone. Here Come The Habibs brings a fresh comic perspective to multicultural Australia.'

'If your twenties is the party decade, then Jonah Reid (Ryan Kwanten) is one very high achiever. Impulsive and charismatic, Jonah lives in a crumbling inner-city share-house, surviving off the proceeds of the massive, anarchic house-parties he hosts every week with his best mate Gus (Ryan Corr). All financial considerations and life administration he outsources to fellow housemate Stevie (Sarah Snook).

In the wake of an unfortunate discovery during a one-night-stand, Jonah is diagnosed with testicular cancer. Assured that his life is not at risk, he is warned that his impending treatment will render him totally and permanently infertile. A shell-shocked Jonah goes directly to the sperm bank in an effort to preserve his parenting future, but when his samples fail to freeze effectively, he is left with just one option for parenthood - natural conception. Within the next four weeks!

Suddenly the party maestro ... has a convulsive shift in priorities. With paternal instincts firing, Jonah becomes determined to procreate before it's too late. He barrels back to his ex-girlfriends - starting with Ava (Bojana Novakovic) - but after failing to convince her to drop her life and offer her womb, Jonah contacts just about every girl he has ever known (and some he doesn't) before being given a reality check by Stevie.

Advising him to ditch the ex-girlfriend strategy and cut out the emotional complications, Stevie assesses his options with razor-sharp frankness, lining up candidates and brokering meetings. But as Stevie's efforts as a 'womb agent' stall, and time ticks away... Jonah soon realises that the perfect candidate might be closer than anyone would think.' (Source: Village Roadshow website)

Stephen Johnson et. al. )agent Melbourne United Kingdom (UK) : Burberry Productions Coolabi Productions , 2010 Z1842790 2010 series - publisher film/TV children's fantasy

Three sisters die in a sudden and catastrophic carriage accident. Frustrated that they've been robbed of their full lives, they petition for a second chance--only to find themselves returning 150 years after their death, their old home now a boarding school. Not only must they become accustomed to modern life, but they mustn't let anyone know that they're 'living' ghosts.

Dead Gorgeous was created by British-born script-writer Barbara Slade, who already had a long work history with children's programming in both the U.K. and the U.S.A. Originally commissioned by Nickelodeon UK (who chose not to pick up the series after viewing the pilot), the series was ultimately made with the involvement of several broadcasters and production companies in both the U.K. and in Australia.

The series was filmed in Australia, and both directors were Australian. However, the majority of the script-writers (who, between them, produced the majority of scripts) were British: Australian script-writers Sam Carroll, Peter Templeman, and Sarah Rosetti contributed scripts to the program.
