I've just watched it and thoroughly enjoyed the programme :-D

I recently visited Toronto so landmarks were familiar.By chance we were diverted to Halifax' Nova Scotia so another serendipity interest;-) ;-)
So great that she could go so far back and even have the poems and letters that they wrote.

I like her humour and watched her on a few programmes.

Looking forward to Paul Merton as I like his humour as well ;-)

It was better than some - not that interesting as dewelt on one thing far too long.
Interesting seeing the portraits and Newfoundland.

Loved the Corfe Castle bit and enjoyed the interrelation with her and the museum man.

I loved the little church and the University. Great she found the book of poems and letters but that could have been a 2 min thing a third of the programme.

Felt sorry for her granny - if that's how you treat someone you loved a lot.

Wouldn't bother to watch it again.

I didn't mind it at all even though I'd never heard of her before.

I loved the remark, 'I don't know what I look like now naturally any more' when she was asked whether she thought she resembled her male ancestor. Honest, I thought.

I also very much enjoyed the interaction between her and the museum guy from Poole. What a nice man he seemed to be.

Next week, Paul Merton. I have heard of him but can't say I've ever watched him for more than ten minutes; he doesn't hold my attention much.

Like Sue and Joan didn't enjoy it, was hoping she would shut up
so the people who knew what they were talking about could get
the information over to her.

Next week Paul Merton.

I have to agree with supercrutch, it was awful. I managed to stay with it but I didn't enjoy it, for me she was was boring!! trying to be funny but not succeeding!
Never heard of her before tonights programme.

When she told us that her dying Grandmother had telephoned her to ask her to say something to her that her parents used to say Katherine said she didn't say it!! & yet she reckons she was VERY close to her Grandmother!
I felt rather emotional about that, why wouldn't one do that??.
