Agree with you all the way Tess,soo many questions.
I've recently read Sam Womack hadn't kept in contact with her family much.

I watched tonight. As is often the case I wanted the answers to lots of unanswered (and possibly un asked) questions.

i.e. what was the cause of death of Jessie's first husband?

who actually put Jessie's first two children into care?

did Jessie keep in touch with these children.

Was the "wrong" surname for Jessie's parents a mistake, or did the grandparents want to distance themselves from that part of their family.
What made the grandparents reclaim Beatrice?

What happened to Beatrice's half siblings?
Did (or will) Sam make any attempt to trace them?
...
After all they may have descendants who have photos of Jessie and Beatrice.

Who were the witness's on Beatrice's marriage cert. ? I was suprised that this wasn't the first port of call when looking for her details.

Looking forward to next week.

Even OH was glued to the programme instead of wandering off.

I agree, also a great fan of programmes like this.
I am definitely nosey but I think to have genealogy
as a hobby you have to be. Gregg Wallace should
be interesting as most of them are, and more so for
people who remember him from school etc.
Annie Lennox born in my neck of the woods so will
look forward to her story. Enjoy.
