That's just the same "history" that bored me at school. We each have about 65,000 14x great grandparents, so it wasn't really about Josh's family history, was it? And do you know how many of us are also descended from those same royal characters? Most of us. Would rather have heard about more recent generations.

Agree.

In other news, we are all related to Sea Cucumbers. FACT.

Well bugger me. You've won my miserable sod of the day award, and it's not even 7.30 am.

Yeah, it was unusual in that it didn’t look at both sides of his family, or the more recent history, it went back a lot of generations on one side to an area that required little new research. Interesting in itself but not really what the programme usually offers.
At least he didn’t react like Danny Dyer.

Definitely, but that's the interesting part! It would be nice if they included more "how to" that would help anyone who wants to trace their own family.
