I enjoyed this one. Made me smile. I hope he carried on with research when he came back!

Personally, I preferred Charles' episode but I still enjoyed this one. I feel he could have done some research himself and that most of the episode was filler - it's good to have a bit of information and insight about the jobs but it just felt like too much in this episode. However, I did like it when he saw his Nan who is doing remarkably well for 100 and did learn some information from the episode. 3/5.

I did enjoy the programme, and was amused that a champion dancer had been uncovered among Craig's ancestors, but I find it very hard to believe that a professional dancer, performer and choreographer has no knowledge of clog dancing. ::)

Really enjoyed this - particularly as I've been researching the Shaw family on behalf of my son in law. But think I must have missed a bit  . . . did they explain where the name Shaw came from - the English records seem to give the name as Macklin (or have I got the wrong marriage?)

This episode was OK.  :-\ (I didn't know who Craig Revel Horwood was).

I thought they spent too much time on the panning for gold and a bit too much on the clog dancing, and not enough on the family history.
