Our Guy in Latvia - Monday Channel 4 @ 9pm

[Sandra]

Guy Martin is an eminently watchable guy, whether he is racing superbikes, repairing trucks, travelling across india or as his is want to do, enthusing about strong cups of Yorkshire Tea.

In this programme, he goes in search of family history, driving around the Baltic states in a 30 year old Lada to find out about his Latvian grandfather Walter Kidals. He died nearly a decade ago. Guy, having never been clear on his life story in not altogether surprised that his grandfathers life was full of adventure and mishap.
Think this may be worth a watch.
