BBC One - Heir Hunters, Series 3, Armer/Dembinska

The cases of Ronald Armer and Princess Olga von Dembinska.

The team attempt to find heirs for Ronald Armer, who left an estate that could be worth over £1,000,000, and Princess Olga von Dembinska of Westminster.

Heir Hunters is on the trail of people entitled to inherit money from long lost relatives who died without making a will. The latest instalment features a desperate race against time and the poignant tale of a Polish princess.

Ronald Armer died in 2008. A young man during the swinging 60s, he embraced the freewheeling spirit of the times. In later years he settled down to a quiet existence in the affluent Lake District, where property prices are some of the highest in the UK. Ronald's estate could be worth over £1,000,000, but finding relations proves a real challenge and Fraser and Fraser soon learn that a rival is already ahead of the game.

At the end of her life, the grandly titled Princess Olga von Dembinska lived in the affluent area of Westminster. But her tale proves to be an epic one involving the tragic twists and turns of Polish history, the cataclysmic events of the 19th and 20th century and a desperate attempt to reclaim a lost inheritance. As the Fraser team strives to find any relatives and determine the true size of her estate, will they be able to separate fantasy from reality?
