Warwick Davis' family history was a mixed bag of revelations, making for an interesting episode.
From the confusion of bigamy, to the joy of finding a performer in the family, to the mixed feelings (i.e. uncomfortable horror,) of a modern perspective looking back at the realities of the blacked-up minstrel shows of the 19th Century, Warwick Davis' episode was certainly intriguing.
Plus, the man himself is a lot of fun.
Sunetra Sarker's episode of Who Do You Think You Are? was the story of the formation of two countries - modern India, and Bangladesh.
An interesting episode covering topics not widely-known in the west, it also told of the violence that led to the formation of Bangladesh, with the reminder that these atrocities took place in the relatively recent 1970s.
This week's episode is the last of the series, and features Sophie Raworth.
