Uncle Rupert


Someone submitted a goof that Rupert is referred to as his Uncle when he says in the video that he was his Great Grandfather. I had always taken the Great Grandfather line to mean that Monty and Rupert shared this ancestor.

Monty is GG's Great Grandson and Rupert was GG's son or grandson making Rupert an uncle or more likely great-uncle.

Does this seem correct or is the goof correct?

You are correct - Rupert explains that the great grandfather had two wives - one marriage produced Rupert's grandparent and the second marriage produced Monty's grandmother.
