Roots Television now has a short introductory video that was filmed at last weekend's conference in London, England. This 81-second video gives a very quick introduction to the show with quick shots of the various exhibits.
You can watch the video at http://www.RootsTelevision.com. More videos from the same conference will become available in the near future.

Thanks for the video.
One of my friends recently learned all her genealogy videos were removed from Roots Television after she asked about an offensive pop up ad that appeared prior to playing one of her videos.
I realize that funding has to come from somewhere, but I am troubled by this kind of response. In the past, regular TV was sensitive to the placement of certain ads with programs viewed by all. They didn't just cancel a popular program and keep running the ad.

Hi Dick,
I have just watched your 81 introduction to the WDYTYA Show May 2-4 2008, London, England.
Your said this was a venue for people from England to research their genealogy, etc.
Many Americans always forget that Scotland, the Republic of Ireland and Wales as well as England are part of the United Kingdom or Great Britain.
Hope you do not take offense to this. We Scots are just north of the border of England, and like to be given credit.
Looking forward to your ongoing informative e.mail. and videos of this venue.
Thanks.
