Following a DNA test to establish paternity, a mother and father have discovered that Laura, their twelve-year-old daughter, isn't biologically related to either of them. 

In the knowledge that the life she's been living should have belonged to someone else, Laura has spent the last few days tracking down her other family. 

Now she and her parents prepare to meet the girl who was accidentally swapped with Laura at birth and the parents Laura should have had. 

A tense and moving drama, inspired by a set of exceptional true events, that explores the nature of identity and the notion of family. 

Director: Kirsty Williams.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
