Oh my!  Husband loved that he met his half uncle!  I really thought that Larry got into researching - he seemed to really care what happened and what he found out.

I was in tears at the end, best episode to date. I would have loved to have seen his mum and her brother meet up at the end of the programme. It would have made a great ending.
