Could drive us to see of the greek capital. We start off with swedens biggest musical export shocks im delighted fans by announcing theyve been back in the studio after spending over three decades out of the music business but the joy was coupled with confusion as the band stated that while they would be going on a world tour they wouldnt themselves be on stage instead theyll be using a holographic avatars or as they call them abba tas my colleague michael cougar caught up with band member beyond old vegas at the abbey museum in stockholm. Its the event journalists have been waiting for but whether the opening of a new permanent exhibition at the museum which is now five years old would have drawn so much International Media attention is questionable reporters are hoping your will drop some hints. About new recordings or about the avatars slated to stand in for the band on their world tour next year. After the abba reunion im here to find out if there is a tiny little sounds to see the real life on stage again. But bjarni isnt playing along he and his team calmly open the exhibition. It explores the solo careers the four have pursued since their split in one thousand nine hundred three and the films in musicals that have kept up the hype the bands marketing has always been a well oiled machine the exhibition is interactive allowing visitors to conduct the guttenberg Symphony Orchestra playing a tune from the musical chips. To saying thank you for the music with two famous swedish musicians. But what about the reported reunion theres no mention of it in the exhibition. So i asked directly why this sudden idea to go back into a studio together the idea came from this project that were doing. Techno artists in San Francisco building my head as we speak. So we thought wouldnt it be fun. If we had a new song which they. Could perform so we wrote two new songs we fear and it was this great fun. There are over. The a few avatars at the museum these were developed three years ago on the basis of wax figures professional dancers provided the movements gestures and facial expressions. The avatars appear on a small stage visitors can join them for a short song and dance but the avatars for the twenty nineteen world tour will apparently sing and dance like the original ever members for the duration of an entire show and pull in the crowds. Look exactly like off nine hundred seventy nine you will not be able to say its not a human being. Lips. Every word that we recorded last year is not amazing. One of the new songs is said to sound exactly as if it was recorded in one thousand nine hundred nine but no further tracks are planned apparently although no ones ruling it out just specially after a tweet released by the former band members in which they said theyd had an extremely joyous experience in the Recording Studio it was like time had stood still as if theyd just been away on a short holiday. So what do the new tracks sound like. But all i can say is its really. Why why i cant sing them to you now. Wouldnt that be yes i would spoil everything. But. Here in new vegas and the other album members may want to turn back time but it will never be the same as it was ever because abbott has ruled out a live comeback here and says he wants to watch the concerts at home on t. V. Well i would have thought he misses the buzz of being on stage now to the biggest wedding of the year which is just about a week away prince harry and Meghan Markle will tie the knot in windsor on the nineteenth of may as an actress Meghan Markle has been living in the limelight for quite some time and that of course wont change when she becomes part of the royal family much is known about their ancestry of course but what about her your max reporter hendrik belling took a closer look at her family tree. Prince harry and Meghan Markle my new fairy tale royal couple. Per channel ancestors probably came from this village. Population seven hundred nine in france just a few kilometers from the german border. This is where my research has brought me. And im standing here in the middle of. This could be where Meghan Marcos ancestors once lived a piece of information which took a lot of work to uncover. The search began several months ago and often back at the edge of the black forest the town was all aflutter since a popular magazine reporter has ancestors from the area i was excited to and asked the mayor and the town archivist about it. Keeps Church Records hes rather skeptical about the connection. To see if you look there were lots of men and women who had similar name. And theres a very real possibility that her name was transcribed incorrectly. Many names were written and. We couldnt find an entry for the markle family anywhere here. In the lead to often very came up empty it was back to the drawing board for me. In berlin my search brings up geologists in the United States the new england historic Geneological Society has already traced some of Meghan Marcos ancestors they gave me a hot tip that points to. Now its a matter of finding the right sources. I start with Meghan Marcos grandfather. And. This marriage certificate from one thousand nine hundred one reveals the name of his father. According to the one thousand and ten us census. Was living with his father george. Georges father was interned named. As shown by a marriage certificate from one thousand nine hundred. Deaths or to forget issued for this in one thousand ten named his father as frederick and a census from eight hundred fifty confirmed it. Graves can be found in the snyder Town Cemetery in center county. And the graves of his father. But the certificate of. Seven hundred seventy two gives his name as. Son of henry. Is the emigrant from europe i was looking for. Who arrived with his father in america in seven hundred fifty four. On the ship. He was listed as the passenger. My next stop is the regional archive and. Im looking for proof that america originated in this area genealogist reach. Over what i found. First confidence in your sources and second those sources have to produce the documents you need. To documents together can you assume that the trail leads to. This archive preserves the Church Records from the region we searched through the records from the years in question. It turns out that the greatest challenge is to cipher in the Old Fashioned handwriting we go through one year. After another and hit the jackpot in seven hundred thirty two. Registered his sons baptism. Ice this is the very same number to log on to jr this is the original now we can be sure its not a false lead its. Just us. We found a possible line of descent from tons to Meghan Markle but it would take years of research to nail down definitive proof. And some are very precise but with others you know were no for sure because on the document we just saw for instance no mother was listed. There could have been many people with the name frederick mark. Good or bad either name. Even with all the evidence that points. We still cant be truly certain still deputy mayor danny is excited about the possibility of a connection to a future royal he shows me some of his typical half timbered houses. Just. More a bit off the beaten track surrounded by forests fields and orchards theres a lot of nature and thats nice it makes for the charm and truth. And what do the villagers say about this tidbit. The lineage definitely comes from merrill yes sir. In the eighteenth century most people here were farmers the area was traded back and forth between french and german principalities to this day some people here speak german others french some are catholic and protestant one of the villages structures is the fourteenth Century Church steeple its possible the baptism of the high. Martin took place here in the old part of the church in seven hundred thirty two. Most of the homes date back to the Nineteenth Century but some of the even older buildings can often yield clues to their original residence. Visa so heres the date the house was built seventeen twenty one with the initial but thats just in four million thats the surname moved and we can say it might have been mauled or marco the two of the families who lived in this village at the time. Indulge fluent. But today nobody by the name of merkel lives around here. So it was interesting to spend a day here where Meghan Marcos ancestors might have lived especially after looking into the genealogy and such depth and give the town a whole new meaning when the guns on little bit auto. Parts last famous tranquility may just get interrupted in the near future especially if Meghan Markle and prince harry drop by to see where her european ancestors may have come from. Well i wonder if theres a relation to a certain anglo macko now we venture further south to explore the capital city of Greece Athens is often described as the cradle of western civilization after a bit of a lull in tourism during the financial crisis in the country its back booming now and theres much more to it than antiquities and the acropolis the greek capital also has a growing street art scene that is helping attract younger tourists to one of the worlds oldest cities so take a look and see if you might like to take a trip there yourself. The acropolis athens is best known landmarks but the greek capital has many other ancient treasures such as this to what actually los. Its part of the ancient or gora the former central Public Square in the city. Tour leader and historian george cocos knows the best spots in town his tip for breakfast is the balcony at shukla royale. If they are living with this view never loses its appeal and its a pleasure for me to show visitors my Favorite Places so that i can pass on the thrill i feel when i see the acropolis and i will know it was a good thing with more than. Is tourist take in both old and new attractions to show visitors how athens is reinventing itself. The plaka is one of athens as old as neighborhoods with its narrow winding streets it invites visitors to explore and linger. Its also home to the courageous monument of lucy craft his interview to a generous patron of the arts. The monument we see back there is dedicated to a very rich athenian more than two thousand years ago that if he means developed a tax system under which people like him have to pay taxes but the middle and lower classes did not. Since the start of the current greek economic crisis the countrys street art scene has grown there are examples throughout the capital. Stuff another. Fantastic Street Art Movement has developed in athens over the past years its one of the Fastest Growing scenes in europe. And it isnt just younger visitors who appreciate. The first time i come to greece and i discover and only knows about the rins. Things but i discover a city changing. In the streets lots of graffiti and i just was surprised i like it so its a good surprise. The next stop on our tour is the ancient arch of history and it combines greek and roman architecture. Was the one with the bomb then were here we see the beautiful triumphal arch its made completely of today the model the athenians dedicated it to their benefactor the m. Pros who adored this city but also other people. A little tourist train can take you to most of athens the sights for instance to the Parliament Building on syntagma square. You can watch the changing of the guard there it takes place every hour on the hour. The Central Market in the heart of the city is also well worth visiting. What is in that home is i go to the market almost every day you can enjoy such a wide variety of sense and colors and you can get products from all over the world but especially things produced here in greece i was in panama city this is. Even top chefs trust the quality of the produce here and come by to pick up ingredients for their menus head on theory owner in chef alexandra stardust is puts a modern spin on traditional dishes today hes making a squid with new york and spinach. The restaurant is in the neighborhood and this one numerous awards. At night the sights of athens are brightly lit her english is still an insider tip unlike the overcrowded bars around honest iraqi square. Its on a side street but offers a breathtaking view of the acropolis. After what is it there that us what i like most of all about the nightlife of athens is this mix of the ancient and the modern its not just the view that makes this place special its that feeling of knowing that the ancient afeni and also sat here and drank their wine and talk to each other just as we do off of us in this line of i want to go around the corner of.

Five evenings a week from among law and still be a printer over welcome that guests here they want to bring people sometimes strangers together at one table with good food and wine.
