About this listen
When a DNA test blows apart her father’s hidden identity many years after his death, Deb finds she has a sister, Barbara, and an entirely new family she never knew. As the sisters work to unravel more of their father’s secrets, they find his connection to a dark chapter of British-Canadian history. Will the sisters finally get to the bottom of their father’s past? Or are some secrets meant to stay buried forever?
From BBC Studios, the producers of hits such as Stalked and To Catch a Scorpion as well as Audible Originals Mother, Neighbor, Russian Spy and I Am Not Nicholas comes Orphan Smith: My Father’s Secret, a gripping seven-part series that follows a daughter’s search for the truth.

The Narrator claimed that the Australian government had, only a few months earlier than the Brits in 2010, formally apologised to the Home Children sent out to Australia.
The carefully selected excerpt of Rudd's speech used in this Podcast avoided any mention of Indigenous Australia's Stolen Generations, to whom it was directed.
This in my opinion, misrepresents it's original intention, and once again openly exploits these vulnerable people.
This should be rectified immediately.
