DNA Journey
ITV, Thursday, 9pm
Daytime TV favourites Kate Garraway and Alison Hammond (above) are joining forces to learn more about their family histories.
Both presenters have experienced difficult years – Kate has been caring for her husband Derek, and Alison lost her beloved mum – but are ready to put that behind them as they hit the road.
Kate uncovers links to a famous fictional British icon, while Alison learns about the history of her 3x great grandfather.
