The host, popular Australian actress/presenter Noni Hazlehurst, introduces each participant and the background to their secret. Rigorous research helps resolve these gripping mysteries and uncovers everything from spies and bigamy to prison sentences and war crimes. Once the truth is revealed, the participants meet with Noni again and explain how they feel now the secret is exposed. The personal journeys are intense and emotional for those involved. For viewers, the twists and turns of each narrative make for compelling television that moves, shocks and surprises.
