Celebrity genealogy series. TV personality Nick Hewer traces his Irish roots on his mother's side, while his father's line goes all the way back to the English Civil War.
TV personality Nick Hewer has fond memories of his maternal Irish grandfather but has always been intrigued about how a Catholic managed to reach the prestigious office of high sheriff in Protestant-dominated 1920s Belfast. On his father's side, Nick goes further back - to his nine times great grandfather - and discovers how his family's fortunes were shaped by the English Civil War.
