Added DiffLines:

* DisappointingHeritageReveal:
** John Hurt was hoping that he has some background in Ireland as he loves the culture, only to find out he wasn't.
** Ainsley Harriot looked into his background that he would find some traits that his ancestors were slaves, which he obviously knows that would be in records.But what he didn't know was that his great-great-grandfather was a slave owner, as it was revealed that James Gordon Harriott was Caucasian. Not helping was that James owned slaves at the age of 4.


Added DiffLines:

* ReCut: Some episodes that were from the BBC version were recut for the US version (eg, Kim Cattrall, Minnie Driver and J.K. Rowling), where it's the same version, but with American narration and different music.

* FollowTheLeader / DuelingShows: ITV's ''You Don't Know You're Born''. As [[Series/HarryHillsTVBurp Harry Hill]] put it:
--> '''Harry:''' If you like Creator/TheBBC's ''Series/WhoDoYouThinkYouAre'', you may be interested in ITV's ''You Don't Know You're Born'', which is ''the same''.
** Later ITV combined this with a look at Victorian institutions in ''Tales from [[UsefulNotes/BritishPrisons the Clink]]'' and ''Tales from the Workhouse''.
