Tomorrow evening BBC Two presents a documentary programme about families facing 
difficulties in writing their wills. “Can’t Take It with You” is presented by Sir
Gerry Robinson and tomorrow night’s episode is entitled ‘Charity Doesn’t Begin at
Home’, making it useful viewing for legacy fundraisers.

“We have to get past this very British taboo about not talking about death or money,”
says Sir Gerry Robinson. He interviews two families in which the wife wishes to 
leave her share of the estate to charity but the husband wants to provide for the
future of his stepchildren.

Lawyer Sue Medder explains the legal options in each family’s case, and writes their
wills.
