"Who Do You Think You Are", Series 14: #10 Ruby Wax
« on: Thursday 14 September 17 19:40 BST (UK) »
This was scheduled for transmission tonight at 20:00, but it is no longer showing in the BBC's listings.

Apparently there is something extremely important about people with disabilities visiting Vietnam in the slot for the next SIX WEEKS.

As I said earlier:

Apparently the series is to air in two five-episode blocks, rather than continuously.

If the last series is anything to go by, that means the final programme of the series will be shown sometime in 2018, having been delayed by a football match between two non-UK countries, a snooker tournament, a specially extended edition of EastEnders to mark their 10,000th on-screen disaster, and urgent re-runs of some celebrity chef's Christmas Cooking series.
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.

Thanks for clarifying this. It's a shame when they mess around with the schedules. They should finish one series before launching a new series

Radio Times has this Vietnam thing on 21st Sep (episode 2/2), so I guess WDYTYA will be back on 28th Sep?  >:(

When I followed the schedule link earlier, it said that tonight's was episode 1 of 6. Glad it was wrong.

Maybe the BBC think more people are interested in Vietnam than Family History.

.... or with disabled people doing amazing things ?   

And why not ..... I have no idea who the woman WDYTYA featured recently was, from the East End, but she was gutsy and to be admired.   

I think its excellent that the Beeb is using and featuring more disabled people .... its been a long time coming.

But .... it is annoying when the schedules get changed ....
