[clematised]

I just watched the end of this program and it was emotional but thought that if some of you have missed it too then you may like to find it on i player as I will be watching it later this week. 24 years ago.

I watched it too.

Very touching......in the end, I thought, he found out so little but it was such a lot to him.

thought it quite sad they have Baby Hatches in some countries where women could put their Babies if they didn't want them rather than dumping them anywhere.

I have just watched this (I missed the start of it though) - I think it was screened a week later in Scotland.
It was very interesting and I thought his idea about all those involved writing a letter for the abandoned child's case file a very good one.
I also though it very strange that there is not a national policy for abandoned children.
Hopefully this will be rectified.
Yes, a very thought provoking programme and quite sad - how lucky we are to be able to trace our ancestors back through many generations!
