Beginning their journey just north of Johannesburg, the sisters are delighted to connect with their cousin Samantha, who reveals their familial link to an African Royal family. Later, the pair trace other branches of their family line and discover a brave ancestor who fought in World War Two, before finding out they are also related to the famous South African musician, Hotstix Mabuse
