About 1/4 of the world are descendants of that Royal playboy; however finding anything that far back is a pretty wonderful feeling.

I feel like we're ignoring Thomas Cromwell on that paper, too.

I love this pretty amazing episode. And Danny’s reaction.
He totally needs to play Hotspur in a production of Henry 4th now!
Guys, the point of this *IS NOT* that Dyer’s connection to Edward III is a common genealogical phenomenon. Of course, he is but one of innumerable descendants. The real kicker is that the man has documented evidence. How many of you downers in this comment section have such proof?

Hi Mark, for genealogical purposes we do need proof. As you rightly point out, many English persons are descended from ED III, legitimately or illegitimately. Very very few will have inherited his DNA, never mind any genes: 'royal blood' is a misnomer. Very few will find the documented evidence of descendancy to the present day; since that is rare (unless there is recent common ancestry.)

I should have said 'recent common ancestry with other royal personages.' as opposed to the more distant PLantagenets.

Hi Edward, I think not. If only we all can find the records! In the UK most family lines records peter out by the 1600s, if not before. The pre- 1837 (Parish)records are not easy to follow in the case of common names. Illegitimacy complicates matters unless the father is named. So the chances of finding even landed gentry with-in that time span are not good: which is why it is rare to find which lineage/s go back to Royalty. You have to be lucky....or unlucky to find such persons, depending on your views on Royalty!
Best Episode EVER! too funny

Edward III is also the ancestor of Charles Darwin, Roy Rogers, Christopher Reeve, Elizabeth Montgomery, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benedict Cumberbatch, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Ellen DeGeneres and many others. Edward III's grandfather, Edward I is the ancestor of Walt Disney, Eli Whitney, Anne Hutchinson, Chevy Chase and others while Edward I's grandfather, King John, is the ancestor of Tom Hanks, Sissy Spacek, Francis Bacon (16th century), Elihu Yale, Sarah Jessica Parker and others.

I remember how I felt when I found out our line is from Henry II & Henry I, Edward I and William the conqueror. It was mind blowing when my gt gt gt grandfather & grandmother died of starvation as a Ag workers in Shropshire and my granddad died at Dunkirk as a common soldier WW2 aged 23, my dad a tradesman! I was able to tell him before he died they he descendent from Kings!

Wealth is a very unstable thing... It only takes a bad decision or two or an unfortunate marriage... There is a Dutch saying about the earners, the inheritors and the wreckers. Three generations is often the time in which things go wrong!
‘Explain to me’ 😝 already got the kingly behaviour
I love WDYTYA?, my favourite episode of it is Danny Dyer's episode, because of all his reactions to what he discovered - like wheh he discovered he is descended from Edward III, Thomas Cromwell and Elizabeth Seymour (sister of Henry VIII's third wife Jane Seymour), plus whjen he saw that big house had a moat and a drawbridge!!!!!
“This is madness”
It was at that exact moment Edward lll turned in his grave.
I am a part of William conquer and Danny dyer I would love to go on this program
Wish I could do something like this...
Danny is like a real life Aragorn.
Oh my.
The real joke also - is that some people consider Plantaganets to be the rightful heirs to the British throne. Henry viii- a Tudor was paranoid about any Plantaganet descendents claiming a right to his throne

And now Danny is a bar owner of the Queen Vic(toria) - how very circular and just that he has found his right royal place in the world.
I'm a decendent of huntly and Palmer's biscuits
He's also descended from Thomas Cromwell You can learn more about him by looking up "Wolf Hall"
Lol, I am pretty much 90% British Isle and I haven't got any royal blood. I have managed to get back to the 1600s with some lines.

The other day I was in my group chat on Facebook we were talking about Danny Dyer and how he’s a king obviously we weren’t serious but now we know he’s related to royalty this is spooky
So Edward III was one of 16,777,216 of Dyer's 22 × great-grandparents.

All the women and their parent don't mean shit. The line from father to son is all that matters
This was brilliant, I remember thinking when it got to Elizabeth Seymour...hold on!....then Hotspur and Edward 😮 Maybe he and Cumberbatch do have something in common after all they're both decended from Plantagenet's maybe their related 😂
“Explain to me”
How cool?! 😎
Does not compute, does not compute. lol
I'm also related to King Edward the III through John of Gaunt.
Absolutely brilliant. Danny has been thinking throughout his life that he was a common or garden ruffian off the streets. This must have been a massive shock to the poor boy. He is direct descendant of arguably England's greatest king.
He can go back to Edward I who was Edward iii grandfather and then he could go back even further if he wanted to
This guy
22 generations ago, he would've had 4194304 grandparents in that particular generation.
That makes Danny my distant relative.
I'm related to Joan Beaufort The Queen of Scotland who married King James of Scotland. She is my 15th great grandmother. Her family were English and French nobles who were Kings and Queens of England and France during the 12th and 11th century and even further back. And also going back further I am related to also William the Conquerer as he is related to my 15th great grandmother Joan Beaufort. Everyone has Royal blood if they go back far enough as our ancestors double in each generation and if you go back 27 generations you would have dozens and dozens of ancestors, population back then would of been much smaller so we would most likely have a Royal ancestor
Edward 3rd is my 21st great grandfather lmaooooo found it more surprising I’m related to Danny dyer
So im potentially related to Danny Dyer?. EPIC. :-)
I am also direct descendant. Hey cousin!
He's also descended from Thomas Cromwell and Henry Hotspur
fucking too right
im related to him then too
This was the best episode, every time he found an ancestor who made a pile of money, the next generation pissed it away and put them back in the poorhouse!
I've just found out that Edward the 3rd is my 22x grandad as well I can't believe it

Countess Palatine of Burgundy you're not rare if you're descended from him. Do the maths. You have more ancestors than the entire population in England during that time period. Almost all of England or anyone with an English ancestor are descended from royalty. It's statistically impossible not to be. What would be rare is if there was a man with an identical Y chromosome to Edward the third

Hi Michael, at the risk of being boring. I have said before it is proving the ancestry which is difficult as the records are less reliable before 1837 and the 1841-onwards censuses. By the 1500s is almost impossible unless you have found a 'Gateway' ancestor (landed gentry and the ilk) where their family trees and seats have been recorded. Even then you need to find the proper records (Burke etc.)and not 'mythological family trees,' or for that matter Ancestry and Geni trees as they are not necessarily accurate.
John snow: the winter is coming
Get him in the throne
Just found this. The comments are hilarious!
There are many, many of us :)
He has a legitimate title claim
So he's been doing EastEnders without realising he's related to royalty? OMG! Still no knighthood, though.
to be fair, alot of us could possibly date ourselves back to royalty, the further back one goes the higher chance of finding one, (simply because of how it works in the way, a child has 2 parents 4 grand parents, 8 great grandparents 16 great great grandparents and so on) sure alot of us will not be, but there is a good chance if you go back far enough...
Are we just going to gloss over the fact that he's also descended from Thomas Cromwell? You know, the chancellor that worked for Henry VIII before being beheaded by him?
This means me and Danny are related 😂
His Majesty Danial of Dyer King of the United Kingdom and the 14 other Commonwealth realms.
I’ve done my family tree and found out that i am distantly related to Danny via william the conqueror
Danny Dyer is related to William the Conqueror and William’s descendants were known to be hot tempered such as Henry II. Perhaps Danny Dyer inherited this aspect 🤔
Gonna treat myself to a ruff haha
