How many episodes of Long Lost Family: Born Without Trace are there? ITV to air heartbreaking series

Viewers are set to be in floods of tears this week as Long Lost Family returns for special episodes on ITV.

The show, hosted by Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell, can always be relied on to have people reaching for the tissues but its return to the screen is particularly heartbreaking.

Long Lost Family: Born Without Trace aims to find answers for people still searching for answers about their lives after being abandoned at birth.

The team behind Long Lost Family combine the latest DNA technology with painstaking detective work, to enable four adults, who were abandoned babies, to finally uncover their identities.

The ITV mini-series features the incredible true story of a man who was left in a car on the outskirts of Belfast, and a woman left the other side of the Irish border in a telephone box in Dundalk.

Also, a woman found at just two hours old in a ladies public toilet in Warminster and a man found in a corned beef box outside a railway tavern in Greenhithe. All four are searching for answers to the most fundamental questions: when’s my birthday; where do I come from; who are my parents and who am I?

There will be TWO episodes of Long Lost Family: Born Without Trace in total, with episode 1 airing at 9pm on Monday, June 1 and the second following on Tuesday, June 2, also at pm.
