Anyone watch this? Channel 4 last night. Really interesting.

His paternal grandparents worked for Military Intelligence during the war and his grandfather was in the West Indies to keep an eye on the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

Kit had no idea.

I’ve only said a snippet of what the programme contained as I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.

It’s a 4 part series with different actors each week.

Kit Harrington has really interesting ancestry anyway. His ancestor was Robert Catesby who was involved in the Gunpowder Plot

I enjoyed this, despite Kit's obsession with being short.

Would also be interested in a programme tracing his descent from Robert Catesby

It was a drama called Gunpowder. Kit played Robert Catesby
