I've asked "he, who would like to be obeyed (but very rarely is)" to ensure that we see it  :-*

For anybody interested in past History of their house there was a very interesting programme on BBC 2 9pm Last night (Tues) which was in Leeds. Historian and presenter David Olusoga tells the story of Britain from the point of view of a house and its owners and inhabitants over the centuries. He delves into city archives, explores old newspaper reports and meets the living descendants of those who were connected to the house. He encounters scandals and tragedies, explores the rise and fall in the fortunes of the inhabitants, and looks at how the city and society around the house changed. Each season tells the story of a different house.I believe the first time these were shown were in 2018 and can be viewed on Youtube.

Moderator comment: two topics merged


What did anybody think?  It seems to me that they are running short of properties with a decent history for which they can find the paperwork.  Last night's episode seemed to overly concentrate on the residents once they had left the property, which implies to me they haven't got enough to say about their period of actual residency.
