    I am a 68 year old man here . I just began watching this series . I find myself emotionally involved with each show . The joy this program brings to both the people involved as well as the viewer is quite remarkable .... But the Norma & Franciscia story was beyond the pale .. It had me crying like a baby . THIS is what unconditional love looks like

      ..in fact, it DOESN'T HAPPEN in the U.S. The version of this very show here films the whole ugly delivery of news when a person has passed. I love the U.K. show so much more for their decency and compassion over sensationalism and ratings.

    It's refreshing to see that some journalists (hosts) understand privacy. So many times we see them give someone devastating news with a camera in there face and then ask "how do you feel". It's nice to see these folks have compassion and are thoughtful toward others.

      Belinda Babette I don’t think it’s about that really. We have no idea if her father even knew he was going to be a father before the car accident. Her mother kept her a secret to her death so I’m sure you can imagine the possible rejection. Anyway, she didn’t ask about her father-she asked about her mother because of the physical attachment from when you’re born. There are a lot of great fathers out there. Did you not see the episode prior to this one? The guy was looking for his FATHER.

    • @rebeccaherrera6006

    How beautiful is this courage to be all of yourself and be supported in that? Especially in this life where there are so many living in fear who project that as anger. Choose only those people in your life who expand you, see the beautiful soul in you and accept you for everything you are.

      Actually she is misgendering when she calls him something he is not and will never be. Fact is, will always be, that he is a male. The guy is a dude, will always be a dude as in a male, so accept reality.

We cried so hard when we met him n it was pure love..it hurt to know that I went to school with my cousin,never knowing we were family and that my uncle was so close to where Ive lived all my life. But now we r all close. Ive been watching long lost family for years never thought it would happen to me

      The comment needs work, it should say ''She accepted her son so easily and plans to be by his side as he chasing after an impossible fantasy'' that would have been accurate if you wrote it like that, the way I suggested. Reality is that it is her son and he is a male, a guy, dude will forever be a male.

    I watch a lot of these shows, this, both these stories had me crying more than any other, almost went through an enter roll of very soft toilet roll blowing my nose, wiping my eyes. So touching so lovely. Sooo happy for Francesca, to have a supportive loving family, adding to that an equally supportive + loving birth mother. And Oh Maria, so wished she had taken the journey 2 or 3 yrs before, but she now has her Italian family, they were soo welcoming, and Silvia, so loving, which is gold! Going to bed now, with these wonderful stories in my head + heart.
