In the "Hollywood Royalty" episode, Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. Used historical records and DNA tests to explore the family histories of Anjelica Huston, Mia Farrow and Isabella Rossellini. Each discovered new things about their families. Among other things, Anjelica Huston learned she had had a Jewish ancestor she hadn't known about and that she was a DNA cousin, as Dr. Gates put it, of both Bernie Sanders and Larry David. Isabella Rossellini's discoveries concerning her family included learning that she was a DNA cousin of Scarlett Johansson. Mia Farrow learned that one of her ancestors had survived the costly and unsuccessful Australian attack on Gallipoli during World War I. As always, the show was a rich education in history and humanity.
