Who do you think you are series 20

I've just read that a new series of Who Do You Think You Are is coming up.  It's  due to be broadcast in early June. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Kevin Clifton (from Strictly) are two of the celebrities.
Staffordshire: Lawton Probyn Horrobin

Yes I saw that. As usual I've never heard of most of the subjects. I only know of ALW and
Claire Foy. Says more about me than the programme I expect.

The actual "celebrities" don't matter, it is the story which does. Some people who I dislike on TV have had great programmes.
Of course there is the occasional subject whose attitude is " Great! A programme all about ME!! " and they get in the way of things.
Others you can imagine getting addicted and using the programme as the basis for a fuller tree. Maybe they are hiding on RootsChat!
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
