The EastEnders actor's daughter Dani Dyer will also appear in the show which explores his Royal ancestry
DANNY Dyer first discovered he was related to Edward III back in 2016 when he appeared on Who Do You Think You Are?
Now he's set to further explore his Royal roots in a new BBC show, Right Royal Family - here's the lowdown...
Actually, yes.
Danny is the Great Grandson times 22 of King Edward III - a fact he discovered while taking part in BBC One's Who Do You Think You Are?.
He's also related to Lionel of Antwerp, Ist Duke of Clarence from the House of Plantagenet, Philippa Plantagenet, the first Norman King of England William the Conqueror, and Thomas Cromwell, the 1st Earl of Essex.
During his BBC documentary Right Royal Family, Danny discovered that he genuinely is in line to the throne.
Although Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince Louis shouldn't worry too much - he's quite far down the list.
Royal commentator Anthony confirmed on the show: "Yes you are [in line to the throne]. In terms of the royal line of succession, it doesn't stop at number 10 or number 20, it does go into the hundreds and into the thousands. And you are there at some point."
Danny Dyer's Right Royal Family aired TONIGHT at 9pm on BBC One.
The show will be broadcast in two hour long episodes, with the second part set to air at the same time next week.
If you missed it, you can catch on BBC iPlayer.
The show will delve into Danny Dyer's Royal roots as he dresses up and attempts to live like his ancestors.
The EastEnders actor is a direct descendant of King Edward III.
In the trailer he's seen playing a lute, jousting and having a go at some archery.
His family, including daughter Dani, who won Love Island in 2018 also get involved by donning period costumes.
Danny first realised he had royal blood when he appeared on the BBC show Who Do You Think You Are? in 2016.
By tracing his ancestry he discovered that King Edward III who ruled England from 1327-1377 was his 22 times Great Grandfather.
The EastEnders star was shocked to discover that he's a direct descendant to Royalty.
He said: "It's pretty amazing isn't it? I just need to digest it and get it in my nut and then I can move on with my life.
"I think I'm going to treat myself to a ruff."
