Was that to me bibblebub?
If so, yes, I like history anyway and some episodes in social history are fascinating and you learn something. I know quite a bit about Barnardos as it goes so it was interesting to see it featured. I don't care much for the celebrity aspect but it does provide a window to their private world you wouldn't see except in a private interview I suppose. For the main part I usually try to predict which part of the world they will be flown off to next.
The 'out of the blue' telecon to the grandson was a bit staged though! "Hi is that X, I'm Y my great grandad looked after your grandad 90 years ago so I'll see you in Canada in a couple of days"

ferlew my ex's nan and 3 brothers and 2 sisters were all taken into barnardos in 1913 after both parents died, the eldest boy went to Canada never to be traced since, even though we have written over and over to the archives of barnardos with exact details of all the siblings, including a letter from the last surviving one (he died in 1992) who they put into the army at 16 as a boy soldier and he was a prisoner in the far east up to 1947. He knew where he'd been, what happened in there yet they kept fobbing him off saying records had been lost in the blitz. funny how they managed to find the records for lesley sharp.
Really?
Hub's dad and uncle were part of a family of 7 children, who were farmed out all over on the death of mum.
I believe the older girls were put into service, no sign of them. Nor do we know what happened to the younger children. Thankfully hub's dad enlisted, and eventually made his way to the UK, via South Africa and other places.
