Last Chance Learners premiered on Wednesday 18 April 2007 at 7:30pm on Channel Seven and was hosted by former Test cricketer and Who Dares Wins host Mike Whitney. After the conclusion of the series final on 4 July 2007, the Seven Network planned a live reunion special, also hosted by Whitney, where all ten learners would talk about their experiences on the show and answer questions from a live studio audience. The special also planned to give away the remaining Hyundai Getzs to lucky home viewers. However, the reunion special was cancelled. Repeats have been shown on 7Two.
The series was also broadcast in the UK on Living2 as Desperate Learners Driving School.
