Long Lost Family — Season 16

Avril was 15 when she placed her daughter for adoption in 1964. She has carried the pain of that separation with her since, and now she is dreaming of finally seeing her again. Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell also investigate the case of Marie, who was raised by her grandparents and has never known her father. As a train conductor, she meets strangers every day and wonders whether they could be related to her. She now yearns for answers.

Two people search for the sisters their mothers never wanted to place for adoption. Before Michael's mother passed away, she asked him to find the daughter she placed for adoption as a baby. Michael believes he matched with her on a DNA website and is desperate to find her. Years earlier, Melissa's mother told her about an older sister who had been adopted as a baby. Now, with her mother's early onset dementia diagnosis, Melissa is in a race against time to find her sister before it's too late.

Pat searches for her son, and Jake is looking for his two siblings.

Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell try to help Liz, who was shocked to discover as a young adult that her birth mother had been a patient at a psychiatric hospital when she was born. She knows her mother also gave birth to a baby boy who was adopted and now longs to find them. Naomi was last with her birth mother when she was six weeks old and for most of her adult life she has longed to meet her. She discovered in her adoption paperwork that her birth mother had twin girls who were also placed for adoption as babies.
