	it gives the wrong impressions that all you have to do is spend a couple of minutes on a computer and you have a large section of your tree done :-S :-S They should say at the beginning - you can't go to a court to see divorce papers, you can't walk into a house your ancestors used and people don't allow you to access military areas. Where's the it took 3 researchers 500 hrs to put this programme together. I am on forums where people think they've been suckered into parting with money they could ill afford to spend as they have only managed to go a very short way back because of the way the programme gives the impression of ease.

	That is very true Pat. We know what they've done for the celebrities but others may not. My theory is that they investigate a celeb to see if there is anything interesting in their Family History before they approach the person with the offer of the programme. I do love US Long Lost Families. By it is heavily an advertisement for Ancestry & Ancestry DNA

	They do Jem I've seen 2 or 3 people say they were asked to do it, gave the family info and which part of the family they wanted to be researched and got - sorry not interesting enough to make the programme with you
