Season 14:
The first episode in the show's 14th series follows Ros Webb - a mother searching for her only child - and Tegan Cornish, an adopted woman looking for a brother separated from her.
Mother Paula Beer searches for the son she gave up as a teenager, and a sister, Sharon Thomas, looks for the younger brother her mother was forced to give up before she died of cancer.
Sue Stalley and Melanie Mackney, two women on a quest to find their biological family members and fill in the gaps in their family histories.
Tracey Boyle, a woman who discovered she had a brother after her mother confided in her following a hospital stay. Carrying the weight of grief for years, Tracey’s mother had given up her first-born son for adoption at the age of 16. Determined to find him, Tracey sets out to let her brother know that he was always wanted. Liz Allward, who was adopted as a baby, shares her unusual intuition. Liz always felt she had a biological sister somewhere, and this unusual feeling was confirmed. Now, she longs to meet her sister and finally complete her family.
The first story centres around 66-year-old Charlotte, who, after a recent cancer diagnosis, feels an urgent need to find the baby she gave up as a teenager. It’s a quest filled with uncertainty as Charlotte has no idea what became of her child or if they are even still alive. This search is particularly significant given Charlotte’s current health situation. The second story introduces us to Jenna, who was donor-conceived and is curious about her biological origins. Jenna has many unanswered questions, including whether she has any biological siblings. She embarks on a journey to fill in the gaps in her family tree, not knowing what surprises or challenges lie ahead.
Mary Arbuthnot - a woman looking for two siblings adopted separately - and Maggie McCauley, who is searching for the older sister her mum had to give up.
