A big update about the lovely Viv from #DNAFamilySecrets. She came to the programme to find her sister, who I found. But what we didn't show was that it showed that Viv's dad wasn't who she thought it was. Listen to what happened next:

Just had a ‘memory’ come up. This time last year the rather wonderful #StaceyDooley, the amazing team at Minnow Films, gorgeous little Minnie, and I were filming series 3 of #BBC #DNAFamilySecrets. So hope we get recommissioned! I’m so proud of the programme: we work so hard on it. 😊🧬
For those of you who watched the lovely Jean's story on Series 3 of #DNAFamilySecrets, I caught up with her to find out what happened after the programme went out. She's such a kind and generous lady: tissues at the ready! 😊🧬

Finished the final episode of #DNAFamilySecrets & it is realistic show these stories with no resolution. It's not as sexy TV but it raises awareness while being empathetic and sensitively done.
It's the final ep of series 3 #DNAFamilySecrets on BBC2
tonight 9pm. Thanks so much to everyone who has been in contact to say how much you like it! We love making it! I'm so lucky to be involved and so hope we get recommissioned. Tonight it's the lovely Charlotte, Lviss and Rogie! 😊🧬
Watching #DNAFamilySecrets very late.
Ah lovely results in the Ukrainian story. #DNAFamilySecrets
Sad that this story didn't get a full resolution but not surprising. So few Chinese people have tested their DNA yet. Great to shine a light on a story I imagine most people know nothing about - I had no idea about the deportation of Chinese works in WWII. #DNAFamilySecrets
Watching #DNAFamilySecrets now.
Not as resolved as some other episodes but I like the realism of it. #DNA doesn't always solve the mystery right away. #DNAFamilySecrets

Oh the last story is Irish! #DNAFamilySecrets
Wow. They found a first cousin but haven't yet identified the parents. That's tough. I've been there with clients, but usually because they haven't responded & have no tree to work on. #DNAFamilySecrets
Excited to see #DNAFamilySecrets - they're taking on a foundling case. I've worked on something similar with an illegal adoption case in Ireland. @turiking.bsky.social #DNA
Watching #DNAFamilySecrets - love this show.
