That would be interesting - she was adopted. Have we had an adopted child to date?

We had Nicky Campbell on the one-off special, which was brilliant, so adoption is no boundary and it would be great to see some more adoptee's tracing either their biological or adoptive families.

I would not say that to an Armenian after what the Turks did to them.

I wonder if they could see if there is anyone from the earlier programmes who has discovered enough after the first programme to do a follow up?
