[Mavals]

I will watch & enjoy.

I've always maintained that none of us should feel guilty about the actions and/or beliefs of our ancestors 

Spot on Nick.

I have to confess I had no idea who Greg Wallace was (til I googled him)  but having read the spoiler it sounds like it's going to be an interesting story.
I actually prefer stories of this type to the ones where everyone did very well for themselves ... perhaps it's just me but I think it makes them more real or easier to identify with.

wow ... that was some story !  really good (if thats the right term) episode

Good demonstration of you shouldn't jump to conclusions till you have all the available facts when researching your family tree.

A great episode, well done, but as ever still more questions need answers, as with us !  How could one family have so many tragic occurrences?

Knew the glove factory in Great Torrington when it was working, sad to see it all wired up.

I agree about the jumping to conclusions. A real revelation about the portrait. Is it me or has that photo book of asylum leavers been shown a program along time ago? I felt that conclusion of his was all going to go wrong.  Tragic circumstances in deed but no doubt there's always more that can be reported by someone else. Not quite sure what to think of the program.

I found it very interesting but sad. It was lovely to see those real documents though and not copies. I was wondering why they showed the census entries in that order but it was clear as the story unfolded- won't say anymore for those who haevn't watched it yet.
