Episode 19 of 25

Series following the work of probate researchers. The team deal with the case of a lady whose birth was registered twice and a former Nippy waitress with a surprising secret.

Once again the Heir Hunters attempt to link people with money they stand to inherit from long-forgotten relations.

Elsie Pope died in a nursing home near Shrewsbury leaving an estate worth 拢50,000. The search for her heirs is complex, not least because Elsie's father managed to register her birth twice in two different districts.

Rose Edwards was a working class girl from the East End of London and went on to become one of Lyons' famous Nippy waitresses working in their prestigious teahouse in Marble Arch. Faced with a large London family, the heir hunters uncover a surprising secret.

Plus, how you could be entitled to a share of unclaimed estates worth thousands or even millions of pounds.
