Controversy
Following a a leaked clip of the show appearing on the internet in March 2012, the Mayor of Sutherland Shire vowed to take "any means possible" to stop the production crews filming in the area. The local council reportedly put forward a motion at a council meeting on March 19 saying they did "not approve the filming of The Shire and [would] not co-operate in any way with the production".
