Who Do You Think You Are Australia

A new season of Who Do You Think You Are Australia premiers on SBS Thursday 19 May with 8 new episodes scheduled.  This is the eleventh series of the popular family history program, which originally premiered in 2008.  The show follows the same format as the popular British series and follows several celebrities as they trace their own families.

It has been announced that the celebrities featured in series 11 will be Lisa Wilkinson, Bert Newton, Cameron Daddo, Lisa Curry, Denise Scott, Kat Stewart, Julie Bishop and Troy Cassar-Daley.

Over the years I have greatly enjoyed watching this program and the insights it provides into genealogical research and social history, while also being slightly envious of all the expert help the celebrity participants enjoy.  The twists and turns of each individual's family story and the emotional journey of their discoveries is fascinating watching and helps re-inspire me to continue my own researches.  Well worth marking in your diary.
