The National Archives website has a wide range of Podcasts which will be of interest to both those starting out on family history research and to the more seasoned researchers.

You can listen online or, as I do, download to an ipod and listen while doing those boring household chores.

Stacky

Glad it is of interest....Only don't do what I did!

Forget that others around can't neccessarily hear what you can.

I had the family in hysterics on Sunday as I was cooking lunch and listening through an ipod....I kept shouting out things like

"Tell me about it!!!"
"Kensington too!!!"

And bursting into laughter....

Who said Genealogists/Family Historians were boring? Some of the lectures are highly amusing.

Try, Sex, Lies and Civil Registration....Very informative but also very amusing.
