« on: Sunday 19 September 10 22:19 BST (UK) »
Hi guys, I wonder if anyone can help me. I have been rattling my brains to think of the name/Title of a BBC? TV programme on Family History/Tree from way back in between approx 1998-2000?

I believe it to be something like Blood ____ ?

or ____ Blood ?

I know it had Blood in the Title. I have searched Google & BBC site but cannot find anything, Anyone any ideas Please.

Thanks in Advance.

Yes, I too remember this programme.  Not the name sadly.  But the "Blood Ties" does ring a bell (not the book by Dan Waddell!!)

But it does occassionally turn up on the "history" channels on Sky.  Last time about 2 years ago.

Maybe someone on here works for the right dept. at the Beeb and can arrange for them to be shown again!!!!

Thanks Guys, That was mine 1st thoughts but just can't remember. Maybe it is  that because the three of us seem to think the same thing. Only thing i can find on search of Blood Ties is a damn Vampire.  ;D

I just checked out Documentary Heaven.com (an excellent site) and sadly this programme is not listed (mostly the ones on this site are fairly recent). It's a pity - I don't think I ever saw Blood Ties but would definitely watch it if it were to be shown again. If anyone hear's that it's coming up please post here !
