Martin Shaw

I take it my Pros fan friends all know that Martin Shaw is one of the people discovering his roots in the new series of Who Do You Think You Are?... which has just started. No idea when his episode will be shown, I've checked the BBC website and they're not saying. Only that Julie Walters was first on (very interesting, Irish background...) and ( Read more... )

I've heard that Martin's episode is going to be on at the end of September, so it probably will be one of the last.

I thoroughly enjoyed Julie Walters' episode - I think anyone who's done their family history will know exactly how she felt when her family's story was unfolding and why she felt so emotionally involved.

But yes! Martin Shaw! Who'd a thunk it!! *g*

Oh right, that's good to know... I think... it occurred to me that I might be away in Scotland when it was aired and lo and behold it looks like I will. I'll have to set the HUMAX to record it.

It was good wasn't it? I thought she was brilliant.

I know! Wooohooo!

Me too and she was absolutely delightful in this episode. As nice as you would imagine she is.

Crossing fingers that I catch it when it comes on - shall keep my ears out around the end of September, by the sounds... *g*

I'll give a shout out in your direction when I spot it if you like. Suspect I may not be at home for the actual showing though.

Any idea how long before your move?

Have a good Sunday!

That would be fab, thank you! I never manage to keep my eyes open enough for that sort of one-off thing, though in theory it should be easier now that I have my new always-plugged-in tv. Of course about a week after I got it, I arranged to move house, and offered to have the tv in the living room, so it may well all go to pot again ( ... )

Oh right, the last week in August. Well, I really hope it all goes well and you manage to coordinate everything so that it's not too much of a hassle to be where you have to be at the right time. These things are never *quite* right I find.
