Maggie, if you find two favourite programmes running at the same time and you can't or you don't want to record one, you can watch the BBC one then watch the other an hour later. For itv(3) go to Channel 33, for Channel 4 go to Channel 3 or 14, (whichever says 4 +1) and for 5 go to Channel 44.

I watched both programmes and found it incredibly sad that the parents were all in long term relationships.

Watched tonight's episode and enjoyed it.
So sad for all these abandoned children.
I hope more of them find their families (and that the families are pleased to be found.

I hadn't realised that so many children were abandoned in the 1960's Some of the mothers will have "reclaimed" their babies too.

Things have changed so much since that time, with birth control, abortion and acceptance of unwed parents.

Typically, part 2 is on at the same time as 'A House Through Time'.

No new or decent TV for weeks - then they put 2 decent programmes on at the same time :-(
I shall be watching it on +1

I watched it and cried too. You are right Tess - both daughters were so alike it was spooky.

Can't wait for tonight's episode. There hasn't been too much good TV on lately. Holby is back tonight too.

Quality stuff highlighting, if highlighting is needed, the rough & tumble of everyday human life.

Memorable episode.

It was so sad. Their mother having to give up her children because of 'attitudes'.

I watched it and was in tears for them.

Fascinating story for them to find that they were fundlings but from the same parents..

That is a true love story.
