Like "Who do you think you are" but with people with a Welsh background. I've enjoyed them all before - eg Paul Daniels had Carmarthen police in his family so there was an intersting piece about the force in those days. Patrick Mower found bigamy in his past, Christopher Timothy went home to Bala, and Michael York was in the Llandeilo area.

I haven't read who else is in the new series yet, but should be interesting.  Smiley

Moderator comment: topics merged


Has anyone been watching this programme at 7.30 on Monday evening. It's a sort of Welsh Who do you think you are, only better. In half an hour it really covers alot of ground.
Next week it's John Prescott.
I don't know who else has been on as I've only just discovered it.

You can catch up on BBC iplayer if you want to see the previous episodes. The first was Michelle Collins and this week was Gabby Yorath.
