The two-part family history show sees 44-year-old Dec and Geordie pal Ant McPartlin, 43, tracing their DNA past.
Searches result in Dec travelling to the US to meet his cousin Meg and her husband Greg — who collect him and Ant in their helicopter. The affluent couple, who work in real estate and run a fleet of choppers, fly the TV pair to their east coast home near New York City.
They raise eyebrows as the scale of their vast mansion and estate, with a huge swimming pool, emerges.
The couple unexpectedly introduce Dec to more cousins and distant relatives he did not know he had. Visibly moved, Dec declares: “Oh wow, this is amazing. I’m really emotional.”
