Famous -- TS on Who Do You Think You are?

Post by daj » Wed Aug 05, 2009 10:02 pm

Did you see TS on Who Do You Think You Are tonight?

The David Mitchell episode had him logging in to the forum and asking for information on his ancestors. :D

I guess. That's what I do when I see the show - look out for tips, then follow them up online asap, before I forget!

Hooray for the forum! Are we to assume that the kilted chap who met David is a TS member? Good for him if he is (reveal yourself sir!)

I wonder what happened to those Kirk Session minutes after the show, I suspect the NAS would like to (if they haven't already) get their hands on those! What a great find in your garage!

All I found buried (whole) at the end of the garden was a Hillman Husky.

I did a search on 'Forbes' and couldn't find the thread! Still, good publicity for TS.

:wink:

Wow!

Andrew - so glad you got us back up and running in time for that wee bit publicity.

I'll watch it when it appears on i-player
