WELCOME

F or the past couple of years I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing the celebrities on stage at Who Do You Think You Are? LIVE. It’s a real honour, but it does keep me busy preparing before the show. I’m particularly excited by this year’s mix as I loved the Danny Dyer episode and can’t wait to hear how the show was researched and put together on the Thursday. I was also bowled over by Sunetra Sarker’s episode, so I’m looking forward to asking her about her experience on the Saturday. However this year, we are also inviting two stars from the hit living history series Victorian

Slum to talk about their experience. Mandy and Heather both wanted a closer understanding of their ancestors lives and it will be interesting to find out on the Friday whether they feel they achieved that.

You can find out more about what is on each day of the show on page 25 (and if you’re worried you won’t be able to fit it all into one day, then buy a two or three day ticket). I will be on our stand for most of the afternoons, so do come by and say hello!
