	Evening both <3 <3 A bit about tonight’s WDYTYA Tears are not unusual on the long-running genealogy show, often coming thick and fast towards the end of an episode, accompanied by a rueful “I promised myself I wouldn’t cry”. What’s as rare as hens’ teeth is unselfconscious humour and a strong sense of irony regarding the formulaic nature of the “journey” that the show’s participants generally find themselves embarked upon. Happily, this week’s hilarious guest, Bolton-born comedian and actress Diane Morgan, abounds in both qualities, making for a refreshingly light-hearted episode. It’s hardly surprising that Morgan should be aware of the show’s pitfalls. Apart from roles in Motherland, After Life and her own BBC sitcom Mandy, her stock-in-trade is the TV mockumentary, in which she has skewered – using her clueless alter ego Philomena Cunk – the pomposity of countless successful TV formats, including this one. While she approaches her own journey into the past with some seriousness – uncovering the stories of relative “German Charlie” and an aunt whose fiancé died in the First World War – her responses to what’s uncovered are distinguished by unrelenting good humour.
