Long Lost Family (UK) S09E01

Long Lost Family UK Season 09 Episode 01
Christine Rose was born in Dewsbury, Yorkshire and is now 67-years-old. At the age of four, she was separated from her sisters in extremely dramatic circumstances. The three young girls were taken from their mother by social services during the night and Christine was sent to one children’s home and her sisters were sent to another. Christine never saw her mother or sisters again and is desperate to find them. She was eventually adopted but remained haunted by the absence of her sisters and began to question why the family were torn apart. After their difficult start in life, she’s always wanted to know what happened to her sisters and whether they stayed together.

Thank you so so much for uploading!! I have been searching for LLF season 9. I lived in Malaysia where I cant get ITV and I depend on youtube for LLF. Some uploads have audio and mirror images problems. Im so so glad you have uploaded all of them here!!! Thank you thank you!!!

[@Cinelic]

The audio, mirror and other image problems on other videos were intentional so they can get past copyright to make money off their videos. I've uploaded mine as they are, for everyone's enjoyment ❤️

[@dd88lim]

@@Cinelic thank you for taking your time to upload these videos for us. I have watched all you have uploaded 😊. Im waiting for episode 4 and there was another special episode in Feb 2019. The October special episode on the fallen soldiers and their unmarked graves was very touching. I pray more will be identified to give closure to their families. Thank you once again for uploading.

[@rina123456]

I love how poor Janice had this all sprung on her like "Holy crap this is insane. Okay, let's find all these siblings!" I really like her lol.

[@kosmos1957]

To the 3 sisters, if you ever read these comments: Sitting here in the USA I would never think of judging your mom. I just wonder why she was not offered help by anyone. Does a woman know when she marries, her husband will be jailed or imprisoned in the future? No! What she needed was help, not persecution. I am so glad that you've found each other. Love and best wishes from the USA.

[@kathrynwitte3398]

Kristine B this is why help and services are vital for those who have fallen on hard times in order to have a chance to thrive in the future. Judgement does no one any favors.

[@gianna5869]

I agree. Instead of help they made it a story to put into newspapers, flashing cameras in crying children's eyes and then prosecuting a pregnant desperate woman who had by no fault of her own a husband in jail. sickening the way poor people are treated as if they want to live that way. It still happens.

[@mishmashmosh6305]

Kristine B my thoughts exactly. Poor woman! What a shame they put her in jail instead of giving her help and food

[@chelseagirl278]

Not to defend anyone or any institution - she wasn't offered help because when someone was poor the kids were taken away. I have watched other episodes when the actual Council would trick the parents and then take the kids. Utterly disgraceful. It tears my heart out thinking of all the hurt and sadness this caused over GENERATIONS! such short minded thinking. It makes me physically sick. Shows like this hopefully help heal brokeness and wounds.

[@maura1686]

Kristine B Even the father, after serving his sentence, had the right to rebuild his life and his family. The british social services are ruled by monsters, not humans. Watch "O Segredo dos Deuses", "Love you Mom" and "Our baby was snatched".

[@kerrymcneill4694]

I could not stop crying for the poor mother in this story. The cruel ignorant authorities should have shown compassion for all four ( the mom and her 3 girls). I am sure the mother must have had an emotional breakdown. Any woman would have.

[@maura1686]

I couldn't agree more! Even the father, had the additional sentence of losing his kids.

[@kerrymcneill4694]

Maura but he broke the law in some way which was a bad decision for a parent to make. I know that maybe his crime was robbing a bank to support his family, as opposed to doing drugs or something really irresponsible. The mom was innocent 100 percent but in the midst of her financial collapse she was treated like a criminal rather than seeing her as a victim of circumstances

[@kerrymcneill4694]

Maura ...ooops, maybe you didn’t know he was in jail which is why the mom was destitute....with kids and no job. He was their support

[@macbethbee]

I'm so glad you said this. I wish it had been addressed in the show. That mother needed support.

[@hallothere7112]

Probably postpartum depression with kids so closely born...not to mention feeling abandoned and overwhelming responsibility to care for the girls when her husband went to jail. That's quite alot for anyone to handle. Poor lady.

[@Anne--Marie]

Christine Rose has such a sweet husband. His love for her is amazing.

[@santbr]

Incredible they found 7 of the 9 sisters. You guys are changing so many lives, God bless all the people involved in these searches.

[@SanataniEternalHindu108]

Any son's?

[@randomvintagefilm273]

So, so sad. Money may not bring you happiness but the lack of it sure causes a lot of misery.

[@JessieArmy]

My mother had 8 kids. She raised NONE of us! Pawned my oldest sister off on my grandmother and pawned me off on my father - who also didn't raise me. The other six were placed for adoption, all younger than me and my sister. We all have different fathers. My six siblings were all adopted by different families as well. She is a horrible, HORRIBLE woman! I have managed to find four of my six siblings so far. Two happy reunions, the other two are indifferent. I am still searching for the missing two. I live vicariously through this show and the happy endings.

[@Cinelic]

Same.. I have a similar background and I get very emotional watching these shows. Hope you find the missing two soon! Love and light to you, 🙏

[@MandyMermaid13]

Have you done 23 and me? Or ancestry DNA? They might’ve!

[@KarenJIrvine]

JessieA I’m so sorry, that’s so not fair to all you innocent people. Makes me sick when so many people struggle with infertility just to have these selfish people pop them out like pea and then pass them on like they are not their own blood. Horrible. I hope you find all your family

[@justinanthenge619]

JessieA please forgive her

[@maura1686]

Don't judge your mom! She gave you all you needed: your life! She could have easily aborted all of you. Or kept you together with an abusive new boyfriend. When you judge your mom, you can be sure you will do twice worse than her. Make a research about the Family Constellations Therapy and a new understanding will be open for you.

[@ltrwoods]

I find this program so uplifting. I, too, found out after my mother's death that the man that raised me was not my biological father. I reached out to my new family just to get to know more about my deceased bio dad and new family and was ghosted. I'm so happy for the people finding their families.

[@Anne--Marie]

So sorry to hear that they ghosted you; you deserve answers.

[@MikkoHere]

Perhaps it was the mental illness factor also

[@dennysmith7862]

WHY DO I WATCH THESE?? I can't see through the tears over here! Poor mother of Christine, left alone, and charged and jailed? Poverty is an awful life.

[@user-tg1ml4yg2u]

This channel shows us how we all survive…..in spite of sooo much we go thru…we survived!

[@huub1989]

Terrible hard times, it’s hard to imagine the way poverty can disrupt so many lives. Glad they found each other.

[@maura1686]

Social Services can disrupt so many lives instead. There are billions of poor people who are not disrupted, have a family, work and are happy. As I can see in this episode, the UK social service has a tradition in destroying families. Did you watch "O Segredo dos Deuses", "Love you Mom" and "Our baby was snatched" ?

[@angelad8339]

I think social services was correct in taking the children away. They were eating raw potatoes and living in filth. Clearly, she barely did any better after receiving treatment. Some people just aren’t able to handle raising children and the every day pressures of life.

[@dawnrasor7515]

I found my birth father after he gave my older sister and I up for our step father to adopt us and discovered I have 3 brothers too. I always had my mom, my older sister and a younger half sister. And my stepdad was and is the best thing to happen to us but it has been like putting missing pieces in my life puzzle finding my birth father after over 40 years. He passed away a couple years ago but I am still very close with 2 of my 3 brothers, especially the youngest and his wife and children. They are a unexpected blessing in my life. I'm glad I worked up the nerve to reach out to him so I have no regrets.

[@gesiriechturtle2564]

I can't watch these without crying.

[@drewharris7785]

The one sitting in the middle on the couch seems so young still, like she hasn't changed from the small girl who was taken away. You can see her trauma in the way she sits; arms crossed, head and eyes down, completely silent. So incredibly sad.

[@DestinysPookie]

I was just thinking the exact same thing. ❤

[@thebeloveth7734]

Yes...she looks detached...lack of emotion..says a lot about how she was brought up I guess! So much pity for her ..she was too young to be without her mother!! Must have been so traumatic for her especially!!!

[@anotherdavidc]

The middle one was Catherine sister #3 . Yeah, disappointments and setbacks can do that to you. Not saying this is a good thing or normal thing. It is abandonment. But life can do that. Remember, Catherine was the one who accessed her papers and worked with sister #1 Christine (aka Rosemary) in getting the whole gang together. I think Janice - sister #4 was taken away rather quickly after she was born at Hatfield Hall.

[@wandertree]

She seemed fine to me. Obviously, this is a traumatic thing in their past, but she was 18 months. Doesn't remember it, and had a good adoptive family. She made several jokes about being sullen in her pictures and not smiling much. It's obviously just personality. I wouldn't read into it. Her sister was in the same adoptive household, and she was very smiling and up front! Just a personality difference. I've known people who were more withdrawn and less connected. There's nothing wrong with them.

[@anotherdavidc]

@@wandertree true.

[@janinevanreenen9470]

When I watch each episode I have a keen awareness of how much each family appreciates each other more because of the absence. Something sobering about that. Especially for those of us who’ve not experienced this. We take each other for granted.

[@CyberwizardProductions]

I would hope, after so many of these stories having become public now, and all the lifelong trauma being shown, that the 'authorities' and "well meaning" fools out there might start realizing that family bonds are incredibly deep. And that while maybe it's necessary to put a child up for adoption or remove it from a bad situation, it's a VERY bad idea to hide who its relatives are, hide it, hide its parents - because even after 50 or 60 or more years there are deep wounds and a deep need to connect with those bonds and roots. It doesn't do anyone any favors.

[@blueashke]

The American version is decent. But I love the original UK version and use it as my 'cry myself to sleep with happy tears' solution, so thank you so much for uploading these!

[@carolconlogue6630]

blueashke Could you please tell me the name of the American version? Is it on KZbin? I've lived in the US all my life but we got rid of our TV about 20 years ago. However I found this British reunion show and I love it so much. So happy for all the sisters!!!

[@blueashke]

@@carolconlogue6630 It's on the TLC website, same name Long Lost Family. You need a cable log in (I don't have one at the moment, but I used to just borrow my mom's) to watch all the but most recent episode, but they're okay. But they tell the people that their family is dead in front of them, things like that. It feels less respectful, but that's just in comparison.

[@PCGEEK2024]

@@blueashke TLC have stuff on there site Long Lost Family, I have watched them there decent, but not the same as the UK one, and BTW I get home sick to coming from England, watching the UK version reminds me all the places in England I know. I seem to be watching alot of the UK version and then I sigh or cry lol but they are heartwarming that's for sure.

[@AgentAO7]

The UK Version is miles better in every single way. The presenters - Nicky & Davina were very sincere & decent in handling these informations & they sympathize with these people because they know first hand how it is to be adopted/orphaned. Even the cinematography, musical score, and the overall format of the UK version is also much better! The US version is like a reality tv show but looks a little bit scripted.

[@blueashke]

@@AgentAO7 I mean, the hosts of the other show are also adopted and found their birth families. But the big thing is that on the UK show, they tell people about deaths in private. They don't do that on the US show and that to me (as an American) just shows the major difference in the two cultures.

[@gabe-po9yi]

If you pause at 6:46 you can read more of the newspaper article. It says that “the husband reported in January that the electric and gas meters had been broken into.” Since the girls were removed in December, that indicates no one came to repair the meters for 11 months. It seems that way to me, as the father was obviously in the home when he reported it. He must have gone to prison some time after. That also points to him being the father of the child born in the mental hospital, making him the father of all nine children. The mother ended up admitting that she’d broken into the meters because she’d needed the money for the children. In 1955, there was little support for families in need, and the pittance she would’ve received could not have possibly sustained a woman with a four year old, a toddler and a baby. It’s obvious she was trying to keep the family together until her husband’s release. I’d be willing to bet that whatever the dad got locked up for was related to supporting his family.

In cases where there is no criminal activity/issues, I believe limited records should be available to ppl looking for family members. Even if it's just a phone number or a way to send certified mail or such to a post office in their general area & see if the family member chooses to reach back to the family member. Postal offices can usually get the mail to them as their government offices. ❤ Just a thought. It would ease the heartache & suffering.

I’m from Dewsbury, and had a similar childhood, but without any reunions. It was and still is the culture in this area to keep your nose in your own business and not doing so was considered meddling and unwelcome. Like it or not. Wishing otherwise is unfortunately, irrelevant. I spent my whole childhood wishing someone would intervene or get me some help. There was a lot of cultural cheek turning that enabled traumatic childhoods to continue.

By far the best episode I have seen Social serivces of that day have a lot to answer for because of the uneccesary suffering they caused..... but why no interest in the father?

[@maura1686]

It was said the UK Social Services routinely takes away 150,000 kids from their families anually. Watch the series "Love you Mom", "O Segredo dos Deuses" and "Our Baby was Snatched"

This was a tear jerker.

I feel like sister who looks so sad might understand her mom more that the other sisters. I say that because of my own depression and I look like the sad sister

[@sharonmoller6757]

Thank you so much for u-tubing this show! I love it!

[@jeremycorey5573]

I would like to know about s9e2 where is that one please post it if you can

[@ggfurlow3539]

Your channel has the best quality...... love love it. This is my third time watching every video❤️

[@nasibaaliyeva7738]

I eas crying during watching. That was so sensitive situation

[@mrtech2259]

I would assume (before seeing the entire episode) the mom went on to have more children, a lot of them actually, to make up for her loss of her older set of children.

Christine’s only memory of her mother is a herringbone coat and she wore a herringbone coat when she met with her sisters. Interesting. Wonder if it was intentional

[@ronrasche5980]

[@chokiesandscream]

Thank you for these videos. ❤❤❤

As painful as it is for adopted kids, that was a hateful thing to say... that his whole childhood was a lie.. again and again this show emphasizes blood over love, I feel for the REAL parents - the ones who loved and raised them. I grew up with my bio family, in dysfunction and emotional abuse and would have given the world to have someone loving, blood or not. Bcos yes, there is a connection with bio relations but connection doesn't equal love and acceptance.

You know ...I find it disturbing how very common this situation really was. Family service systems can be so anti family in so many instances. Could they not have tried to assist the family instead of destroying it!? They needed HELP!

[@nq6508]

I don't think they had any family services or welfare back then.

[@amandastrauss7779]

Amazing story, thanks.

[@chrisgordon5719]

The women/mothers sure do get the short end of these stories.
