Israel: Who Do You Think You Are?

We had a pleasant surprise in Israel this past week with series I of the famed BBC genealogy show "Who Do You Think You Are?" airing each day at 5.15pm, repeated at 3.25am - for the insomniacs - on Reality Zone (Channel 29 on the Yes satellite system).

Last year, seasons I and II were screened. This is a nearly complete repeat of the first season with today's focus on Meera Syal.

I found it quite by accident and am enjoying these episodes again. We can hope that this means we'll also see seasons II, III and eventually the current line-up.
