Who Do You Think You Are (UK): Season 13, Episode 6

13 - 6: Sir Ian McKellen

As the "last of the McKellens", Sir Ian admits to a degree of melancholy as he delves into his family history.

But the results pay off richly for one of our greatest actors and civil rights champions. Ian's journey uncovers a theatrical ancestor, a Victorian political activist, and a link to an ancient druidical landmark in the Lake District.
