Heir Hunters

Smith/Wise (4x19)

:

The heir hunters struggle to trace a family with the most common surname in the country as they look into the case of Harold Herbert Smith - known as Bert to his friends. He passed away in Surrey in December 2008 leaving behind him a substantial estate in the region of 400,000 pounds. As the team become frustrated trying to identify the correct Smith family, a helpful neighbour comes up trumps. But will this be enough to help the heir hunters find their needle in the haystack? Meanwhile Fraser and Fraser's Case Manager, Simon Grosvenor, has been investigating the case of John Wise. John passed away in February 2008 at the age of 78 and represented the classic story of a working class boy done good. He may not have owned his own home but when he died he left behind him a staggering 300,000 pounds in his bank account. As Case Manager Simon delves deeper into John's story in his search for heirs, he also discovers a brilliant economist whose grasp of money was far from what you'd expect.
