This is last night's message from the Australian Ambassador, from about 4:00 on he talks of the compassionate grounds application. As he's getting info straight from the Thai government this may be of interest to anyone looking at this avenue to return to Thailand

Contact the consulate in the UK to get the list of quarantine hotels here
We don't have any more information than they mentioned on the announcement at this time.
Your wife is thai, have her start googling around or calling around ;)
