Does anyone else here watch this show? It's absolutely fascinating and reaffirms that history geeks are still the best

OH! I remember that discussion but didn't pay attention to the program name and had not seen it yet. I'll have to see if I can check that one out. Thank you.

Is this the same History Detectives shown in the UK on the BBC?

Presented by that Scottish archaeologist chappie Neil Oliver?

If so we managed to have a photograph found in my late grandfathers papers featured on the programme. Shame they found out very little info on the photo, but worth getting on the programme to here Neil say "Crrrraig" in his rather pleasing Scottish ascent.

Which if I confess is my real name, Harry is my alias.

Just in case it is a different program here is the photo they featured

Well from looking at the links the programme is the same format, but different programmes.
