A pop star form Kent will tonight trace her family roots visiting some of the county's landmarks along the way for TV show 'Who Do You Think You Are?'
Pixie Lott, originally from Bromley, stars in the programme's 18th series which has already featured actress Judi Dench and comedians Josh Widdicombe and Joe Lycett.
While delving into Pixie's family history, she will visit Ramsgate and HMS Gannet at Chatham Dockyard where she finds out more about her musical history.
The singer-songwriter, who took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2014 and was most recently a coach on The Voice Kids UK, is no stranger to Kent audiences.
In 2014, the 30-year-old visited pupils at the Harvey Grammar School in Folkestone to raise awareness for charity Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY).
Pixie, whose real name is Victoria Lott, also starred in Breakfast at Tiffany's at the Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury in 2016.
During lockdown last year she took to Instagram to sing to Rochester teen Oakley Orange, who has Stevens-Johnson Syndrome – a rare skin disease.
The show will be on BBC One tonight from 9pm.
