This show should continue forever. There are many families that need to be reunited.

The giggles of the 2 sisters really got me...cant stop binge watching these programs My eyes are red from crying...cathartic to let it out ...these make me feel brand new again. I have abandonment issues so this is very healing .

The British show is done with so much grace, empathy and love. The presenters voices so loving and soothing

Davina gives wonderful hugs. They're not the fake kind normally seen on a show like this, but one that shows she really cares.

I love these shows. My dad made me give my son up for adoption at birth. It was 1969 and I was 16. I hated him for it. I looked for him the rest of my life. Finally the internet came in to play and these agencies that have access to social security can find them. At that time I found him, was 43. Fifteen minutes after I paid them they gave me his name. We're very close now and will be forever. Only a woman who's lost a child through adoption or death can understand the incompleteness that comes with this loss, and that emptiness that is there for the rest of your life. I have that freedom now because I'm finally complete, and forgiven....

Best part of the show is how excited the hosts get to tell them good news. I think they enjoy it as much as the families do.

Thank you for sharing these video's! I cry each time. As I was an adoptee searching for my birth family. I found them 2 1/2 years ago. My Mother had passed, my Father knew nothing about me, but he accepted me with open arms. I also found 6 half siblings. I'm the oldest of them all. My Grandmother was one of 15... so you do the math on how many Aunts,Uncles and cousins I have found. All have accepted me and love me ,as I love them !!

some birth mothers react that way because they are wrapped up in their own guilt and couldn't get away from the shame they felt at not being a good enough mother. but they don't stop bonding with other family members. i'm hoping that this is the case for your friend as the the birth mother allowed the rest of the family to connect with her. but on the other hand, there are birth mothers who are unable to accept the child and by extension, reject everything. we've definitely heard stories of mothers replying back "now that you know my name, don't contact me ever again. don't speak to me or anybody in my family. you are not welcome here."

I nearly fell over!!! I Let out a cry & scared my family to death lol...We may not see or hear them in this life they left behind, but moments will pop up reminding us that their still here with us ❤❤❤

Crazy how Bronwyn and her son both have a mix of English and North American accents! so cool!

Although Angela's parents kept her sister a secret, imho they must have grieved their whole life. After all, they named both of them Angela Mary!

I love watching these stories not knowing that I was adopted until a year ago. Only to learn that my birth mother was near by. Our churches actually fellowship with each other and I would see her very often. What's funny though is that I always saw her family by coming into the store where I was assistant manager. Eventually when we met it was shocking to see this. God bless everyone who has an amazing experience.

I've watched the same episodes several times, I love this program, I love Davina and Niki and their Respect and Grace they give each person they come in contact with.

I can’t watch any episode without crying, how do Devina and Nick keep it together? 😭

Mark shows me how the Australian accent is like an American Southern accent mixed with a London accent. LOL On a serious note...as an adoptive mom I love the way each honored their adoptive parents too.

Love you brother I have never met. The sun will come out tomorrow.

I just *love* this show! When Bronwen was asked "how does that feel [seeing a picture of your son all grown up]?", and she replied, "It feels like love"... that just really got to me. She's right... it shows that he was loved by his adoptive parents, it shows he's happy and healthy, it shows that Bronwyn's incredibly loving sacrifice to give up her baby for adoption, never really knowing the outcome of his life, was all worth it. Wow. (I know they usually only show the happy-families versions of these reunions, but it is just so heartwarming to see the successful adoption stories, and those who when they become adults, do want to establish relationships with their Long Lost Family!)

I love this show because no matter what kind of day I'm having this show always makes me feel better

Davina is such a beautiful lady. She handles things with such kindness , her smile just makes u smile too. This series has been so overwhelming and full of happiness. Great job guys.

Please, please, keep this show going. I truly miss it when it was not own. I've watched reruns after reruns after reruns. It keeps my own story alive. And I cry for each one.

Mark & Bronwyn have the same sweet giggle 💕

"It feels like love." Says it all.

I love how that show always gives a little bit of context but they never go too far. They respect privacy, dont try to pry more than necessary. This beats any american tv show .

Is it only me??? There's something very special about Bronwyn. She seems to have an internal calm which is like a bubble around her. I saw that she had been in peace-work and would certainly want her by my side if I was in crisis.

It feels like love....what a perfect explanation to convey such an emotion. She certainly held it together..

I'm so happy that I found these stories!!! So many emotions watching these. It's so satisfying watching the long lost family members reunite!!! So far I haven't made it thru 1 episode w/out crying happy & sad tears.

everyone in this series has money. and most have houses with nice furniture and floors surrounded by greenery. some are very well to do while others are middle class. a few have a flat. no one has a low income with one exception - the parents in, i think, Bogata in S.A. i related to them the most. it’s very hard watching all the lovely places the people in this show have and i always wonder, how could they afford a house? all the people in this series are just lovely people and i’m so glad they have found relatives. it means so much to them. and i want Bronwyn’s house. it’s perfect :)

What a lovely program. Done with culture and taste. Nothing like the psycho drama programs in the USA.

I love this show....watching all the way from South Africa

His mixed British/Southern US accent is sooo iconic I love it

His sons are adorable and so sensitive 😭. She is so lucky to have found her son.

I think most of us feel the same, always cry at family reunions knowing many never get a chance. Hopefully more adopted people will search if they want to know their blood family because most of the time they give you up because they just can’t raise you but never because they don’t love you!

Well.....I've had a terrible head cold......no more....because I've cried so much .....head cleared! As a adopted child who found my birth family.....I know all these feelings ❤

Also, she reminded me of social workers I've worked with. It is a different way you react when you have done a lifetime of work helping others. She reacts like an aid worker who has seen great suffering. These ppl are sensitive too, but it shows up differently and often they learn to control it to care for others.
