It’s listed in the week’s TV programmes that came with last Saturday’s Daily Telegraph. 9 pm BBC1 Michelle Keegan. Thanks for the reminder that it’s on. We are out tomorrow so I must remember to set the recorder.

I agree but nothing surprises me with
the channels these days.
We are usually on other channels which we enjoy
so can always find something to watch :-)

Hi Emma, I just don't get it, & when you see the rubbish that is being shown at 9-00pm on both the Wednesday & Thursday next week it is very annoying to have a brand new series of WDYTYA mucked about with so soon!

I've recently started watching the US Who Do You Think You Are? programmes and have downloaded loads ready to see. I am enjoying them.

Which WDYTYA celebrity was your Ancestor featured in Joy?

Heard of Olivia Coleman & ‘Judge’ Rinder but have never watched anything they’ve been in. Familiar with Boy George from my yoof, but the rest of the names? Nope.

I’ll await reports on the programme format before deciding if the series is worth watching.

What a surprise! The only one I've never heard of this time is Marvin Humes.

I find the show much more interesting when I have heard of the subject.

Particularly looking forward to...

Olivia Coleman...A brilliant actress, loved her in the Broadchurch series.
Boy George..I seem to remember he had an Irish background, but I could be wrong.
Lee Mack....Love him!
Judge Rinder....Wonder if his ancestors were as posh as he appears to be :-D
