I have to agree with the majority here - definitely the best of this series. I vaguely knew where he first came to TV notice, and so wasn't expecting too much, but ... WOW!! He showed interest, empathy and a sense of fun (the sword fighting, anyone?). Unlike so many he had obviously taken in the family stories from childhood and made them part of his personal history. So often others have said ' oh yes, we were..... ' but don't seem to have really thought what that meant.
The Talk with his grandfather showed their closeness, and the final scene was genuinely moving.
And I was knocked speechless when he went to the synagogue and made the clear connection to the time the furniture was produced - he clearly knew who Oliver Cromwell was!
