For me, Olivia's bouncy attitude is what made this episode worth the watch - she really did make it interesting just by being there!
Of course, her family's story was also really interesting!
This episode really benefitted from a family that could've waltzed straight out of Dickens or Austen, encompassing India, Portugal, and France, and death, divorce, and some very strong women.
And of course it's hard not to be at least a little envious when someone's family were posh enough to have actual painted portraits!
This episode had all of the amazing twists and turns you would hope for in a episode of Who Do You Think You Are? and hopefully is a great indication of the standard of the rest of the series.
Again though, what really made this episode was Colman's investment in not only the highs, but the lows as well.
Yes, there were the patented Who Do You Think You Are? tears. Many of them, in fact!
