Who Do You Think You Are? (2004)

S5E1 Patsy Kensit

Patsy delved into her late father's shadowy history as a notorious villain connected to 1960s London’s infamous gangsters, the Krays and the Richardsons. With Reggie Kray serving as her brother's godfather, she felt compelled to explore her family's criminal legacy. Meeting with a criminologist, Patsy uncovered her father's extensive criminal record, which led her to startling documents in the National Archives revealing her grandfather's criminal activities as well. However, her research took a positive turn when she discovered that her great-grandfather, despite his poverty, was an honest walking stick maker. Further digging revealed that her ancestors were once prosperous artisans, and ultimately, she learned that one of her forebears was a remarkable vicar devoted to aiding the needy, providing a hopeful contrast to her family's darker past.
