yes, I watched this. very interesting, he found that the story of reading lots of letters he'd been told by a grandparent was to do with being a spy!
will there be others, I hope so

Did anyone see this last night, it was very interesting. Kit Harrington's family were the subject matter wherein he explored the lives of all four of his grandparents. Paternal grandparents were spies involved in keeping tabs on the Duke of Windsor in Jamaica. Maternal grandfather's involvement in the Battle of Monte Cassino in Italy. Meanwhile his maternal grandmother a nurse in Devon during these turbulent years. Amazingly he gets to speak to a nursing colleague of hers still alive at 100 years old and as bright as a button.

I've never watched GOT so Kit Harrington is quite new to me, he's very good looking, not that has anything to do with this programme of course!!
