It's Brendan O'Carroll (Mrs Browns Boys) next Thursday and I hope this one will be more interesting. |

I found last nights boring too. Kept repeating the same findings over and over, and I should think most viewers are adult enough to understand the situations. |

Just watched some of Julie Walters but gave up half way though. Her family undoubtedly treated extremely badly but episode far too boring I thought. |

The thing for me as many have said its only doing one gen and so they are repeating themselves Tazmin travelled to the IOM and Glassgow and t'other place for 1 Grandparent it also outraged me that she kept saying " they were only icecream sellars" Grrrrrrr but Itianians and we were at War with them and also her great Uncle was only 19 at the time so by my reckoning if Alfonzo came to the UK in 1913 as suggested and his son was born in Italy in 1920 he had been back there. |

I believe he came over to Glasgow in 1913 then he was called up into the Italian army in 1916.... So went back |

I did like Julie Walters but the same old thing (social history) just went on far too long for me - we could have had at least 4 GG Parents lives analysed |

I agree Joan, it's not that he couldn't afford to find this info |

I would think it is only recently that an irishman trying to research the actions of a Black and tan in 1920 would be able to do so 'safely', ie without arousing the attentions of the 'powers that be' . Call me suspicious but would you have looked into the murder of a Sinn Fein member of your family by the military during the 70s or 80s , which is when he might have been expected to look perhaps? I wouldn't have. |

With the history as you say Rose of the Black and Tan I |

I'm sure they wouldn't Emma, but the alleged killer is already 'out there' in terms of public knowledge of his actions in Ireland at that time. If he has living family they must already know his history. |
