"It's the other half (12-20) of the new series that they started earlier in the year."

That's what I thought too but my TV guide indicates it is a repeat.

Perhaps they are starting this latest series at the beginning again?

I suppose we'll find out when it resumes next Monday 16th July at 11am?

Snap Xinia! I too am learning Italian at the moment, and I would recommend 'Duolingo' to you. (A free computer language learning app).

Having got that out of the way, - I will make a note of the new 'HeirHunters' times, etc

I'm prety sure it will not be a repeat going by what my Sky TV Guide says as I don't recall this one plus it wouldn't make sense of the BBC to repeat the first 10 again not long after they were first shown.

My guide says its new and its Michael Buerk so presumably the start of the remains of the series.
For those who can't get 11am, its repeated on bbc2 tomorrow, Tuesday morning at 7.15am and every other morning this week at  7.15am.

Michael Buerk is better at ambulance chasing than a heir hunting show. I remember him when he presented 999.

I do quite like the show, and how the researchers reach dead ends, and some like that as it gives them a challenge.

I caught the tail end of the one about the lady in Twickenham, who used to be a Spy, and how the police raided her house for her arms cache after she died! (Apparently she kept a machine gun in her bedroom:-)

Michael Buerk brings more animation to the voice over than Lisa Faulkner did, in my opinion.
