Over the last three years, one TV show has captured the imagination of millions of viewers, turning the nation into history enthusiasts and amateur family historians. The hit BBC TV programme Who Do You Think You Are? has inspired a new generation to trace their ancestry to join those who are already well on their journey towards uncovering their personal heritage.

Following this unprecedented success and with a fourth series confirmed for 2007, Who Do You Think You Are? is launching a National History Show, giving more people than ever before the opportunity to learn about their heritage. This event will take place at the National Hall, Olympia, London on May bank holiday weekend, 5th – 7th May 2007. The Show is supported by the Daily Telegraph and Ancestry.co.uk.

For previous visitors to the Society of Genealogists’ Family History Show, sponsored by Findmypast.com, you should note that this will still be taking place but is now part of this exciting new event. This show is in its 15th year and continues to attract Family History Societies from all over the country plus all the experts you have been used to meeting there.

Who Do You Think You Are? LIVE offers you a perfect day out with a blend of famous historians, opportunities to share your own discoveries and themed entertainment.

There will be more TV historians and specialist experts than ever before. The History Channel Theatre features an awesome line-up including TV’s David Starkey, Dan Snow, Bettany Hughes, Nick Barratt, Saul David and Jonathon Foyle.

Experts from the Society of Genealogists, The National Archives and other organisations will also be on hand to answer your questions face-to-face in the ‘Ask the Experts’ area of the show, so this is the place to come if you have a specific question or you are stuck on a particular aspect of your family history research.

The Who Do You Think You Are? Theatre will feature insights into the personal journeys of some of the celebrities who have featured on the TV programme, offer a behind the scenes look at how the programme is made as well as offering advice and information on starting out on your journey.

You’ll have the chance to share your stories with others and discover how other visitors have overcome problems or discovered new insights.

You are invited to bring along any items which you would like to have examined by experts, whether they be photographs, medals, items of clothing or any other artefacts.  There will be experts available to offer more information and clues as to what the history of this item might be.
