Great news for fans of the hit TV show Who Do You Think You Are? The new Australian series starts on SBS One on Tuesday 2nd April at 7.30pm.
Celebrities in this series include actress Asher Keddie, actors Michael Caton, Lex Marionos and Don Harry, TV personality Rove Mc Manus and actress Susie Porter.
In the first episode, comedian and television presenter Adam Hills traces the desperate journeys undertaken by his migrant ancestors.
Adam is keen to find out what brought his two great grandfathers to Australia in the early 20th century.
His great grandfather, Oscar Kluckhenn, who arrived in Australia in 1907 at age twenty, had to hide his Austrian nationality as World War One loomed.
Adam also traces the story of great grandfather Joseph Vassallo’s journey from Malta, and discovers a tale of migration through desperation.
