Its a great show. Hate to think that any of the money would go to the government when nearly all will have some distant cousins out there.

I have looked at the SLADE name in Birmingham. Died without issue I think but gone back to grandparents and sent a G.R. member a message to contact me as they might just be a blood relation. That was yesterday...still waiting...
If it works out I will have the bug...!

Funnily enough as I was watching this programme this morning I suddenly thought how many of the brilliant people on here could give Fraser and Fraser a run for their money !! (excuse the pun!) but there are some absolutely brilliant detectives on here.

Still, that's why that guy lived in an up market thatched roof property and I'm in a semi - too soft for my own good!!

I thought it was a bit mean that the chap did his own research and the company which had worked so hard finding him lost out.

I imagine they take a fair sized commission but they do seem to work long hours to get there and they find people who knew nothing about the deceased a lot of the time.

Unfortunately, the once Mum-in-law was contacted, the name and town were right, but the deceased had no connection at all. A shame really as there was over a million pounds.
