Liz Hayes has just been to the ultimate family reunion. An incredible journey through time that began with Liz's mum and dad in Taree, New South Wales, and ended with her long-lost relatives in the heart of Africa. Like many Australians, Liz caught the ancestry bug and decided to research her family tree. But as usually happens, Liz soon hit a dead end. After a few generations, all the written records simply dried up. Then science came to the rescue. Turns out, we all carry our family history with us, a secret code hidden in our DNA. And that code eventually took Liz back 2000 generations - more than 60,000 years - to where we all began.
