Who Do You Think You Are?: May 29

Actor and presenter Ernie Dingo is the subject on next week’s Who Do You Think You Are?

All his life, Ernie Dingo has been estranged from his father’s family, on account of feeling abandoned by his own father, Tom Pepper. Ernie is brought face to face with his father’s ancestors, including an English convict. Will his journey force Ernie to re-evaluate his perceptions about the past – and his relationships in the present? Meanwhile, Ernie’s relationship with his mother’s side of the family has been completely different: he grew up wrapped in love and warmth from his mother Bessie and grandmother Ulie. But his grandfather Jimmy Dingo remained a mystery, and Ernie sets out to discover more about this enigmatic character.
