ITV bosses have announced that its hit show DNA Journey will return to TV screens next month – and they’ve assembled a star-studded cast.
The new series will be split into two parts – one in the spring and the another in autumn – with a new bunch of celebrities eager to find out their family histories.
Kate Garraway has bravely shared her family’s struggle since her husband Derek Draper was struck by Covid.
And the Good Morning Britain presenter is set to dig even deeper as the star signing for the new series of DNA Journeys.
Celebs such as Dancing On Ice‘s Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, Maureen Lipman and Rula Lenska and The Chase stars Anne Hegerty and Shaun Wallace will also take part.
In addition, comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan will team up for the second part of the series, as well as Gavin & Stacey stars Alison Steadman and Larry Lamb and TV presenter Alison Hammond.
Joel Dommett and Tom Allen will also feature on an episode together.
In case you missed the last series, the show allows celebs to delve into their family histories with cutting edge technology and genealogy to uncover the truth behind their bloodlines.
ITV Head of Entertainment Commissioning Katie Rawcliffe said: “DNA Journey is an enthralling combination of heart-warming, emotional and high octane all at the same time, and it’s great to welcome some of TV’s favourite faces onto the show to delve deeper into their family histories and secrets.”
ITV Commissioning Editor Louise Major added: “Everyone has a desire to learn more about where they come from and to be able to share this personal experience with some of our favourite faces is so special and a real treat in the mid-week schedule.”
The first series featured famous faces including Freddie Flintoff and Jamie Redknapp, Amanda Holden and Alan Carr and Martin and Roman Kemp, as well as Geordie duo Ant and Dec.
Unbelievably, Ant and Dec actually found out they are actually related on the series.
When one of Dec’s cousins handed the 44-year-old an envelope, the popular pair found out they share a S660 DNA marker, meaning they are related in an incredibly distant way.
