History 2000: Bloodties
Martha Kearney presents more advice on how to investigate family histories, including tracing the origin of old photographs. Among the remarkable stories of those who have already reconstructed their family trees is that of Richard Jeffrey, who for 15 years has been delving into the macabre career of his great-great-grandfather William Calcroft - the Hangman of the City of London.

8.05 Timewatch: Sleeping with the Enemy
After the liberation of France in summer 1944, over 10,000 women faced the People's Tribunals charged with "la collaboration horizontale".
Two women who had affairs with German soldiers recall their public humiliation, while testimony from neighbours and resistance fighters builds up a picture of wartime collaboration that was not always black and white.
