The ‘blindsiding’ DNA test that changed my life - BBC Three

Growing up in Rochdale, Luke Davies always felt different in some way.

“When I started to realise I was gay, I thought maybe that was the issue,” he remembers.

But after he came out to his accepting parents, Liz and Gary, when he was 18 and the feelings of difference persisted, Luke began to question himself again.

For his whole life, people had remarked on Luke’s physical appearance. Luke recalls going for a job interview where a hiring manager said he “ticked” certain categories: being working-class, gay and mixed race.
