Season 20 Episode 6 of 9

Comedian and actress Emily Atack already knows she has showbusiness in her blood - her mother is singer and impressionist Kate Robbins, and Paul McCartney is her grandmother's cousin. Now she wants to learn more about her entertainment roots. Along the way she visits Liverpool to hear more about the McCartneys, and is also told tales of theatrical whistlers, Welsh footballers and Yorkshire miners. Anecdotes regarding struggles with mental health still resonate 130 years later. Narrated by Phil Davis

Who Do You Think You Are? airs on Really at 9:00 PM, Tuesday 12 August. (Subtitles, audio description.)
