Britain’s celebrities are getting to know their family heritage with “Who Do You Think You Are?”. The television show features notables learning more about their family tree and the secrets it holds. One of the episodes you can view for free on FilmOn’s Yesterday channel features “Strictly Come Dancing” and “Dancing with the Stars” judge Len Goodman.
“Known to millions as the lead judge on the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing, Len Goodman nearly became a welder until a friend told him to try out ballroom dancing because it is ‘full of girls’. Now in his late 60s, Len feels it is time to find out about his ancestors. He spent much of his childhood with his mother’s parents in Bethnal Green, and it is this side of the family that Len wants to investigate. Len discovers how the shadow of the workhouse loomed large over his family and led to tragic consequences. He also uncovers a connection to silk weaving and sets out to solve the mystery of an ancestor’s descent into poverty. Len also follows the trail of his Polish great great grandfather, Joseph Sosnowski. He wants to know how Joseph ended up in Portsmouth in 1834. As Len follows in his great, great grandfather’s footsteps, he discovers the dramatic part Joseph played in the struggle for Polish independence.”
