    Good morning @Hostafan1 😊 it’s nog a programme we usually watch but saw it last night here at MIL’s ... yes... revelatory for them wasn’t it?!
    I loved the banter / tension/ humour between Jack and his Father as the story unfolded.

    I've just had a messge from No1 daughter. She knew one of the historians on WDYTYA last night. She did some research with her when in Uni. Small world.

    Don’t tease me Hosta. Who was the WDYTYA?  We watched an Australian one last night - Natalie Imbruglia.

    I had a laugh at one part. She said was teased at school with her name indicating she was a “new Australian” with questions like where do you come from, or why don’t you go back to where you come from. One of the things she discovered was that one of her ancestors was on “The First Fleet” in 1788 as a convict.

    I believe that has a great cachet ? or am I mistaken?

    I find it very sad that in a county like Australia, that " go back to where you come from" mentality is evident.
    I'm sure the Aborigines have been saying it for centuries.

    It’s probably better not to get into that discussion. It only makes me mad. 😡
