Long Lost Family Australia is an Australian television series on Network Ten which premiered on 16 March 2016 and featured eight episodes.[1]

It is based on Dutch format Spoorloos developed by broadcaster KRO, who sold it to the UK, where it was called Long Lost Family, a BAFTA award-winning British television series that has aired on ITV since 2011. Presented by Chrissie Swan and Anh Do and featuring private investigator Julia Robson, it aimed to reunite close relatives after years of separation. It was made by the production company WTFN.[2]
