I heard Julia laugh like when she played Lydia in Pride and Prejudice. I’ve watched that so many times that my ears picked it up straight away. She was so excellent in that role. I think she’s a terrific actress.

I watched Press Gang as a kid in the UK and decided I wanted to be a journalist. I moved to America when I was 13. My mum was adopted from Europe in the 1950s and brought to the States where she met my dad in high school. I know nothing about her side other than what she knew as a kid in Europe. I did my DNA test and I’m 20% Anatolian Turkish. We don’t have any Turkish relatives or culture. I’ve always been curious to find out my roots. We all live with assumptions, handed down stories and societal conversions that our heritage often gets diluted as we assimilate to where we live throughout our lives. I would love to be able to find out the actual truth one day.

When great minds are bored, they create the most amazing things. What a brilliant lady, her grandmother seems to have been and how cool to just go against tradition in search of where she truly belonged. Like she had a mind for business and did an amazing thing by actually saying "I want to do something with that" instead of just conforming to what was expected.

A complete joy to watch. The film of Julia’s Jordanian namesake grandmother made me quite emotional. What an amazing woman.

I'm of French Huguenot heritage. They escaped France after many other Huguenots were brutally murdered in their village. It's extraordinary to think people were tortured and murdered in France because they believed different things from their ethnic brothers and sisters.

Julia’s grandmother was the kind of women we need now in the Middle East… absolute legend and Lysistrataesque character

I love the fact Briton has kept so many records and restored houses as living museums

I absolutely loved this episode. You can hear how proud she was to find out about her amazing Arabian grandmother . I was glad that Julia was able to let her mother know that that her ancestors did come from Normandy. Jenny 🇨🇦

One of the more interesting stories in this season, Julia's family history is fascinating

Wonderful episode. Julia Senior appears to have been a trailblazer and a powerhouse. When film types are looking for new material, sometimes it is in their own heritage. I bet Julia Senior's life would make a great movie.
