Who Do You Think You Are? | David Walliams comes from a family of travelling showmen! | #WDYTYA @WhoDoYouThinkYouAre | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Actor, comedian, talent show judge and childrenβs author David Walliams delves into his family history. First, he learns of his paternal great-grandfatherβs prolonged and traumatic experiences on the battlefields of the First World War. The damage to his mental health condemned him to a lifetime in what was then known as a lunatic asylum. On his motherβs side, David uncovers the story of his great-great-grandfather, who was blind as the result of invasive eye surgery. David is amazed to find out that his ancestor became an entertainer - first a street musician and then a travelling showman, running fairground attractions with the help of his wife and children.
