our NBG certs all stay with the case they were ordered on so we can look back at a later date to see just why they are wrong. We even keep all the applications for certs with checking points that come back no good.
Sorry we have just too many to do anything with, after a case has been closed we microfilm then shred the file including all the certs, it is part of the requirements with our ISO security certificate. We did originally keep every cert in a index but the time to index and file them just was not worth it.
We would also have to be careful with the 50 year rule if we were to pass certs on.

Awww, I want it shown in Australia too.
Sounds like an interesting program, nice to see they found their way into Rootschat - and if you need expert advice - just ask a Rootschatter.

Thanks
I missed the first series, but will try and watch. Similar detective work to ours!
We have used a similar organisation the other way around; as executors of a small estate where we cannot find one of the beneficiaries. I thought I would try, but of course I could not access all the info. In fact we still have not found the person, who has probably gone abroad. I was interested in the methods used! So I look forward to watching yours in action.

Watched yesterday and today.
Very interesting!
I did notice that there were no female investigators 'in the field.'
Also no high profile ladies in the office.
Is there a reason for this?

Wish I could spend a couple of days in their office just looking at all the records they have
It was interesting yesterday with Lord and Lady something doing research on old cases from their home. Be a bit of a shock to get a letter from him. I bet some of us could do that job if we had the time.

Mum - Such love

Thanks for letting us know it's on - I never find out unless someone tells me  Should look, really!
Will catch up on bbciplayer.

Sylviaann,
I'm sure you're right - I expect they need qualifications though. There are some great detectives here on rootschat.
Lovely avator, by the way

I've recorded the first couple of programmes & watched number one. I was rather annoyed at the "spoiler" given at the start in the coming up bit... it did rather give the game away. I also thought that the voice over was a bit at odds with the film at times in what had or had not been "discovered" at that stage - a problem with the editing, maybe?
I'll be interested in any explanation as to how the cases are chosen now that the value of the estate is no longer put on the web/press advert.

I saw the first one on monday......that poor guy who had to drive up and down the country several times and THEN got a speeding ticket..... 
Maybe it would help if there was someone already oop north 
iplayer is a wonderful invention, just downloading this morning's for later.
Although it has nothing to do with Fraser & Fraser......where's Nadia gone?? The repetetiveness of the first series has diminished but the voice over script is dire!
