They seem to be heading for very emotional programmes this series. Or is it just me getting more emotional as I get older?

Loved the spooky part about being at the graveside of his Aunt Patricia Ann on the same day that she was buried 67 years before

Pity he couldn't find Bert. I'm sure he could if they helped him

Disappointed he didn't go further back.   Why could they not go further with the first son? Death certificate or something

Oh gosh, how sad was that??  :'(

but really interesting! and so many spooky coincidences. I'm sure that they could have tried to find out something about Bert, what a shame.

Carol

I know exactly what you mean, that one had me in tears, especially the baby girls and the last bit at Gallipolli.

Very interesting programme and what a nice man Robert Lindsay is!!!

I thought that was the best episode so far (out of all the series).  Looks like I'll need to go to Kew/NA to find out about my Great Grandfather.
