Who Do You Think You Are?: May 16

This week on Who Do You Think You Are? the subject is veteran journalist and presenter Derryn Hinch.

Veteran journalist Derryn Hinch has long been curious about the identity of his mother’s father. His one clue, a childhood portrait of his mother Betty, leads Derryn to suspect her father was an English sailor. But on this episode of Who Do You Think You Are?, Derryn submits to a DNA test with heart-rending results. On his paternal side, Derryn discovers a shared bond with an intrepid matriarch, and the surprising war-survival story of an uncle he’d previously dismissed as merely a larrikin.
