Saw that on Tv when it came out and loved it. His ancestors Swedish/Finnish background had a lot of similarities to my grandfather.

Yes, it has also been sendt in Sweden http://www.svt.se/vem-tror-du-att-du-ar/

[AJL]

Takk for det, man kan også se den svenske versjonen fra utlandet.

Swedish version accessible in Australia, too.
I watch way too much Scandi noir, so was able to follow some of this.
Wish some of my ancestors had come from places with records this good.

[anglesqueville]

Ja, jeg kan se den svenske versjonen in Frankrike, desverre ikke den norske.

Hehe, not that bad, but the sentence structure is usually wrong and one can see it is a direct translation of English etc...

Selvfølgelig, det er en store hygge å gjøre! :)

If you are multi-lingual I recommend trying the voice "reader" via Google translate, it is hilarious for some languages (Not so much with those that have a Robot voice)..

Thanks -- apart from French and Spanish, I doubt I would pick up on anything strange, my tiny bits of Portuguese and German are oblivious to humour.
