0:00:36 > 0:00:38Dad? Lunch!
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Here you go.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47I've got college. Cheers, Leyton.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Where are the Paracetamol?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Try the drawer.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Um... Have you thought any more about the cricket?
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Remind me.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10I've told you loads of times. The tour with the club.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Oh... Yeah.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18It's only a week, but it'll be awesome.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19Jake and Finn are booked.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23They're going to need their opening batsman.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28I really wish I could, Leyton, but you know how things are.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31It's just a deposit, the rest can be paid off later.
0:01:33 > 0:01:34Look...
0:01:34 > 0:01:37I've got these stocks I'm shorting this afternoon and if they do
0:01:37 > 0:01:41the business, well... Great. Fingers crossed, then.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43Ask me again later, yeah?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10KNOCK ON DOOR
0:02:13 > 0:02:14Come in.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Come on, lunch in the Icon. Sid's buying.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19That's very sweet of you, Ayesha, but...
0:02:19 > 0:02:21But nothing. Hurry up.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Look, I was just going to go down the high street.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Have a bit of quiet time.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26I can do quiet.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Do you want us to bring you something back?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31No, no, it's fine, I'll grab something when I'm out.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Come on.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35All right. What are you doing tomorrow night?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37I hadn't thought that far ahead, to be honest.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39OK, then book me in. We'll do something.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43You're being very lovely, but nothing really appeals,
0:02:43 > 0:02:44to be honest.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46Come on! OK.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48I'll see you later, yeah?
0:02:48 > 0:02:49Yeah.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Come on...drop.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Drop!
0:03:07 > 0:03:09DOORBELL
0:03:13 > 0:03:15KNOCK ON DOOR Not in!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19LOUDER KNOCK
0:03:23 > 0:03:25HE SIGHS
0:03:36 > 0:03:37Yes?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39I work from home, so cut to the chase.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Hello, Rick.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42It's me.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Stella.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Oh, no. How are you?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50It's been a long time.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54I've rehearsed 100 different openings,
0:03:54 > 0:03:57but now that I'm actually standing here...
0:03:59 > 0:04:02I thought about writing or phoning first but in the end,
0:04:02 > 0:04:07I just wanted to see you and talk to you both face-to-face. Both?
0:04:07 > 0:04:08You and Leyton.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11No. This isn't happening.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Please, can we talk inside?
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Why? Nothing's changed.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Actually...
0:04:17 > 0:04:18I have.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21You're 18 years too late. I don't believe this.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23I know this is a shock and I know you think it's too late
0:04:23 > 0:04:27and I don't blame you, but I just want to make up for the past.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Just a little. Please.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Give me ten minutes, and then I'll leave.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32You'll leave now.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35I could come back later? Maybe when Leyton's back from college?
0:04:35 > 0:04:36What?
0:04:36 > 0:04:39No. Just go!
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Look, I know things are tough for you and everything costs money,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43but I can contribute now.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47At least let me help with his cricket tour.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50How do you know about that?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Rick, I didn't just turn up.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58I've been following him for months. Well, years.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03On Twitter, Facebook, that sort of thing. Stalking him?
0:05:03 > 0:05:04He's my son.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Argh!
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Keep away from him. Rick?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12HE CRIES OUT What's the matter?
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Just get out. Are you OK?
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Yes!
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Just leave us alone! SHE SCREAMS
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Right, I'm off. Can I get you anything?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Ooh, are you going past a newsagent? Yeah, can do.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Can you get me a scratch card? Lucky Cash.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Scratch card?!
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Statistically speaking, you're more likely to get run over by the Queen
0:05:38 > 0:05:40than actually hit the jackpot.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43To my knowledge, the Queen has never been involved in an RTA
0:05:43 > 0:05:45and yet there are lottery winners every week.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46And to my knowledge,
0:05:46 > 0:05:49they're called RTCs and you can't seriously expect to win.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Well, last week, ?10, week before a free go, so...
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Ooh, a "free go"? This is monumental stupidity, Hollins.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Well, I'll pass your views on to Rob. It's for him.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Can you make that two, please, Em?
0:06:03 > 0:06:04Ooh, Emma?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Hey, Em!
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Could you get us a card while you're out as well?
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Yes, I heard you. Two of them. No, it's for Valerie.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15The receptionist.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Yeah, I know who Valerie is. Sorry.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19So...Lucky Cash?
0:06:19 > 0:06:20No, a leaving card.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22She's leaving.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Of course, yes. Sorry, I'm with you.
0:06:25 > 0:06:26No problem.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Light goes through the cornea and the aqueous humour,
0:06:30 > 0:06:34through the doughnut... I mean the pupil, to the lens,
0:06:34 > 0:06:36through the vitreous humour.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40And I'm particularly pleased with my cloves and peppercorns
0:06:40 > 0:06:41which represent...?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Rods and cones.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Which are part of the retina. And their function is...?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47To recognise light and colour and where the image received
0:06:47 > 0:06:49from the lens is reversed. Mm-hm.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51And we're missing something here?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54The optic nerve.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Shak, tie.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59The image continues along the optic nerve to the brain
0:06:59 > 0:07:02where somehow, it's put the correct way round again.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Excellent.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Right, take a picture. Your mum should see this.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Tomorrow, we do the inner ear with gardening implements.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Oi! That's my eyeball!
0:07:20 > 0:07:21..and scalpel.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30We're closed. Open again at four.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Oh! Hang on!
0:07:36 > 0:07:39It's Stella, isn't it? Yeah!
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Do you remember me? Karen?
0:07:41 > 0:07:42Yes, of course. How are you?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45I'm good! How are you? OK.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47I took a bit of a tumble, that's all.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Oh, no. Are you hurt?
0:07:49 > 0:07:50OK, so milk and something for supper.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52It's nothing serious, I'm sure.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54I just thought I'd get it checked out by a doctor.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57We've got a drop-in at four.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Thank you. Why don't you come in and wait? We can catch up.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Are you going to be around long?
0:08:05 > 0:08:06Unlikely.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Gosh, I haven't seen you in ages.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12It was...ages ago.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Yeah, it was.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16I still see Rick occasionally. And Leyton.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18He's got to be... You know what?
0:08:18 > 0:08:19I think I'll come back later.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Oh, are you sure?
0:08:22 > 0:08:23It's funny.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Some people would rather endure horrible pain
0:08:25 > 0:08:27than the company of Karen Hollins.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28I'm going to ignore that.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Do you know, I nearly didn't recognise her.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34You would not believe what she used to get up to.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35It's always the quiet ones.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Ooh, she wasn't back then.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Where are the biscuits?
0:08:40 > 0:08:41There.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55He's all right, isn't he?
0:08:55 > 0:08:56Who?
0:08:56 > 0:08:57Heston.
0:08:57 > 0:08:58He's OK.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03I'm busy.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05It's funny he hasn't got any kids of his own.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Hilarious.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Still, he seems to quite like us.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11Yeah, for now.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Unlike our own dad.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16What do you mean?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18I don't know.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Exactly. You don't know the first thing about him.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21And you do?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33SCRATCHING
0:09:39 > 0:09:42So...you've already looked him up?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45I never thought you were interested.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I mean, I've tried to talk to you a few times about it but...
0:09:47 > 0:09:51I know, but I didn't think you'd try and find him without me.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54It's always made me feel sick. It still does.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Do you remember anything?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Not really.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Maybe you should talk to Mum about him? Why me?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Cos you're better at talking.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06It won't matter. He's one thing she won't discuss.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10She won't talk about any of them. We could be a dynasty.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13This is our family and we know nothing about them.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14There might be good reason.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17They could be bad people and Mum's protecting us?
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Do you think he's in prison?
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Who's gone to prison?
0:10:21 > 0:10:23OK, none of my business.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25I'm going to the stationer's. Do you need anything for school?
0:10:25 > 0:10:27No. No, thank you. OK.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34OK, now, grip my fingers.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38OK... Now rotate your hand at the wrist.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43OK... Now, let me move your hand without your help,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45and let me know when it hurts, OK?
0:10:46 > 0:10:49When was the last time you saw Rick and Leyton?
0:10:49 > 0:10:50Years ago.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I ran out on them when Leyton was a baby.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57That's tender. OK.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00So it was a bit of a surprise visit?
0:11:00 > 0:11:01You could say that.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Good to go?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08There's some bruising, but I don't think there's any serious damage.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12Try to avoid using the arm. Don't lift anything heavy.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15You said that Rick lashed out?
0:11:15 > 0:11:17I might have overstated it. He wanted me gone.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I don't blame him.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22But still, he never comes across as aggressive.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Never, although I gave him enough provocation.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Rick didn't seem well. Is everything all right?
0:11:29 > 0:11:30I couldn't say.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34So you were hoping to re-establish contact?
0:11:36 > 0:11:40I've got to a stage in life where I'm looking back and trying
0:11:40 > 0:11:43to make sense of the mess I made.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46It sounds cliched, but I want to give something back.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51And the person I owe most to is Leyton.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52And Rick.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Have you told them that?
0:11:56 > 0:11:57I didn't get that far.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Things have gone well. I got lucky in business.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07I wasn't here for him emotionally
0:12:07 > 0:12:09but I was hoping to help in other ways.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14Looks like I've blown my chances.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Or fallen at the first hurdle?
0:12:16 > 0:12:17Allow me.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19But if you're serious about making amends,
0:12:19 > 0:12:24then perhaps even try a different approach?
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Such as?
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Is there anybody here that could speak to Rick on your behalf?
0:12:28 > 0:12:29Not in a nice way.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32But...
0:12:33 > 0:12:35..how well do you know Rick?
0:12:40 > 0:12:42I'll consult the third umpire.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47All right, Dad?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51What? Oh, yeah. Fine. Fine.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Any luck with the short trade?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00No! No, no, stop!
0:13:00 > 0:13:01Stop, stop!
0:13:01 > 0:13:03You idiot!
0:13:05 > 0:13:07And there you have it.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11It's only been recognised over the past 20 years or so,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14so most GPs are unaware of it.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Cerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy
0:13:16 > 0:13:20with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy.
0:13:20 > 0:13:26Bravo. With suspected mutations on gene three of chromosome 19.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Again, bravo. The brain is kind of my specialist subject.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Who else in the family is affected?
0:13:31 > 0:13:34So the father and the aunt died in their sixties.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36They thought it was MS or Alzheimer's.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38But now they think CADASIL. Coffee?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Yes, please.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43And it's causing changes in his behaviour.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Early onset? Yeah, Rick thinks so.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49He's angry, he's isolated and that's causing problems
0:13:49 > 0:13:51in the relationship with Leyton.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Has he been tested?
0:13:53 > 0:13:54Rick hasn't said a word.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56He's tried to hide the illness but, of course,
0:13:56 > 0:13:58that's getting difficult now.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01So Leyton sees his dad changing and he doesn't know why?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04I can understand Rick's point.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08There's a 50/50 chance, and with no cure
0:14:08 > 0:14:12that's going to affect life insurance, mortgage possibilities.
0:14:12 > 0:14:13Sure.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16I mean, it's big guilt on Rick, but ultimately it's up to Leyton,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19isn't it? Then at least he'd know what was going on.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Yeah. And the longer Rick holds out saying anything,
0:14:21 > 0:14:24the more trouble it causes at home.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27No-one likes being left out. Especially teenagers.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28No. No, they don't.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Thanks, Al. Cheers, mate.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Ooh, sugar!
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I'll see you next week.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59KNOCK ON DOOR
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Come in.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08It was an accident.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09I never meant to hurt her.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Is she all right?
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Yeah, a bit shaken.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I just wanted her gone.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22I've always dreaded her coming back and making some sort of claim
0:15:22 > 0:15:23on Leyton.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Have you got kids?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Yeah, two.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31You just want to give them a happy childhood,
0:15:31 > 0:15:33a good education, prospects.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35You have. He's a credit to you.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Yeah.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39But I'm leaving a different sort of legacy.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42You don't know that. He might be free of it.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46I would do anything, absolutely anything, for that to be true.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49only one way to find out.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51If he tests positive, he'll hate me for it.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54Leyton has a right to know what's happening to you,
0:15:54 > 0:15:57and ultimately, what could be happening to him.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01As his doctor, I should be making him aware of that.
0:16:01 > 0:16:02I know I've got to tell him.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07It's just that the words won't seem to come out.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09It's time to think long-term, Rick.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12We know that in the future, your condition is going to deteriorate,
0:16:12 > 0:16:14don't we?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17You're going to need more support, as is Leyton.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18Bearing that in mind,
0:16:18 > 0:16:22don't you think it might be time for him to meet his mother?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25What, so she can lure him away with her money and expat lifestyle?
0:16:25 > 0:16:29She wants to help. At least, that's the impression I got.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Leyton is the one good thing in my life,
0:16:34 > 0:16:36and now, after 18 years, she wants him back.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Who wants me back?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Your mother.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48What?!
0:16:48 > 0:16:50She was here this morning. I threw her out.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53What did she want?
0:16:53 > 0:16:54To meet you.
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Do you want that?
0:17:00 > 0:17:01I don't know.
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Yeah, I suppose.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Let me talk to her first, all right?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Have you still got that number?
0:17:22 > 0:17:23I hope you'll stick around.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25If that's what you want?
0:17:26 > 0:17:28See what a can of worms you've opened.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52What are you doing, Shak? Oh!
0:17:52 > 0:17:54SHE LAUGHS Shut up and keep watch.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Found anything? I'll tell you in a minute.
0:17:58 > 0:17:59Oh!
0:18:04 > 0:18:06They're not...? Shut up and help. Are you all right up there?
0:18:08 > 0:18:09One under there.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17So that explains what happened earlier, when you pushed me.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Headaches are epic.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21They can go on for days, plus you feel sick.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24And I've had a couple of strokes now.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28What are they called?
0:18:28 > 0:18:29See, brain's going.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33You've had two relatively minor lacunar strokes.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35So far. But they build up.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37To what?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Everything from changes in cognitive function,
0:18:40 > 0:18:43which covers a multitude of sins, to persistent disability
0:18:43 > 0:18:45which is terrifyingly vague.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47That could be years away, if at all.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Most people with CADASIL live to their sixties and seventies.
0:18:49 > 0:18:50And some don't.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Short-term memory's shot. I'm a liability at work now.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59That's why Dr Granger thought it sensible for Leyton to meet you
0:18:59 > 0:19:03before I kicked the bucket or went completely gaga.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06I had no idea. Well, you wouldn't.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Not a squeak out of you since the day you ran off.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10No.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13And you've always had it?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Bubbling away. It's genetic.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Leyton...
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Exactly.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22My fault, my family.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25And now I'm passing it on.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28And as people always say, we're like two peas in a pod.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30In some ways.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32It's probably not what you had in mind.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Leyton's future isn't quite so rosy.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39They are finding things out about CADASIL all the time.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41There are no cures right now,
0:19:41 > 0:19:43but it's important that you stay positive,
0:19:43 > 0:19:44for yourself and for Leyton.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Yeah.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Well, thank you for telling me about this, Rick.
0:19:50 > 0:19:51I appreciate it.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56I've been keeping a nasty little secret of my own.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59Why does that not surprise me?
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Come on, then. Enlighten me.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Leyton's not your son.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15So what did you find?
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Mum and Dad's wedding certificate. We've got a name.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19What is it? Check it out.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Aamir?
0:20:23 > 0:20:24Mean anything? Nope.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Not in there, you idiot!
0:20:28 > 0:20:29Pass it here. I'll dump it.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41Say it again?
0:20:43 > 0:20:45You're not Leyton's father.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48He's not your son.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Rick, I'm sorry. I really am.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56All these years of bringing him up alone.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Now suddenly you come back and the whole world's changed.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06And I'm not the person I thought I was, and nor is Leyton.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12You are a scheming, cheating, violent drunk and a terrible person.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19But thank you!
0:21:21 > 0:21:22From the bottom of my heart.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Glad to help.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29This is probably the happiest day of my life.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31What a doctor! Oh... Oh!
0:21:32 > 0:21:36I've been praying for some way out but I never imagined this.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40How to cure someone's incurable disease in 30 seconds.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Admittedly not what I was expecting either.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43There'll need to be tests to make certain.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Oh, I'm certain. Rick's right, I was terrible back then.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50You slept around, but I'll always be grateful for that.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53I explained Leyton's pregnancy on a dodgy condom.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Are you really OK with this?
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Ecstatic.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01He's my son, because nothing will ever change that.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04But he's not my blood.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07He's clear of what killed my dad, my aunt, my uncle.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09So, yeah! I'm really OK with this.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12If you ever wondered where his sporting ability comes from,
0:22:12 > 0:22:14it's not from either of us.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16The real father was into baseball.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Ah. The Air Force base.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23He now coaches Little League in Vermont.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Google him. You'll see the spitting image of Leyton.
0:22:26 > 0:22:27Or how he'll be in 20 years.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Healthy and happy? Absolutely.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34So are you going to tell Leyton?
0:22:34 > 0:22:35About not being his blood father?
0:22:35 > 0:22:38No, about the CADASIL.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40That's no longer your concern, Dr Granger.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42He needs to know. The sooner you tell him...
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Just let me enjoy the moment, will you?
0:22:47 > 0:22:49He's got to meet his mum first.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Yeah.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53One seismic shock at a time.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Ruhma!
0:23:08 > 0:23:09What's wrong?
0:23:10 > 0:23:15I don't really understand the person I was back then either.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20And I've no excuses. Just regrets. At not being there for you.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25But I've changed, and I want to try and put it right.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28And how are you going to do that?
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Well, first I'd like to stay a few more days
0:23:32 > 0:23:34so you can get to know me a bit more.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37And then... What I'd really like
0:23:37 > 0:23:40is for you to come over and visit me some time.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41I'd love to show you Cape Town.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46My stepson's a cricketer too. You'll get on great.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48We always go to the Test at Newlands. Wow!
0:23:50 > 0:23:52But we can't afford a club tour of Somerset,
0:23:52 > 0:23:54let alone a trip to Africa.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55Let me worry about that.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00What do you think, Dad?
0:24:00 > 0:24:04It's your choice, Leyton. Your whole life's ahead of you.
0:24:04 > 0:24:05There's no rush.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07I'm not running out again.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15KNOCK ON DOOR Come in.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Did you get it? Hm? Valerie's card.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Oh, yes.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Here you go.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23And Rob's scratch cards?
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Oh, no. Sorry, I forgot. Sieve brain.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Ah, no worries. You got this, that's the main thing.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31I'll pop in on my way home. OK.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33You all right? Hm? Yes.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34Just...you know, busy.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Bye. Bye.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47Right...
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Well done, me.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06So, how are you feeling?
0:25:06 > 0:25:10To be honest, things couldn't have gone much better.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13I've made contact with my son, and with your help
0:25:13 > 0:25:16delivered Rick the best news of his life.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19It was a gamble, but... Quite a day.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23He's a great lad and Rick's a brilliant father.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26It's good I wasn't there to mess him up.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28So. Back to South Africa?
0:25:28 > 0:25:29In a few days.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31What then?
0:25:31 > 0:25:34I'll send Rick money for the cricket tour and set up a trust fund
0:25:34 > 0:25:36for anything else Leyton needs.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40Then I'll respect his wishes and keep out of his life,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42if that's what he wants.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44I don't imagine he'll feel like that for ever.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47It was a lesson in loyalty. Fair play to him.
0:25:47 > 0:25:48He's been through a lot today.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52But with Rick on board, just give it time.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54I know. And I will.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Because you and I both know
0:25:57 > 0:26:00he's going to need me sooner than he thinks.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10What do you want?
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Look, I might have got a bit carried away.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Cos I sort of know how you probably feel...
0:26:15 > 0:26:19I mean, if mates ever ask me about Dad, I shut them up.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22So I get that you find this a bit weird.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25It's not that I'm not interested. I am.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27It's all the other stuff that comes with it.
0:26:27 > 0:26:32I feel like I've got to do this, although the timing sucks.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36Maybe it's moving in with Heston, but not knowing who my own dad is?
0:26:36 > 0:26:37It's a big gap.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41So what do you reckon, then?
0:26:41 > 0:26:43OK.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Cool. Just let me know what's happening, all right?
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Shak, Alia? Can you come down here please?
0:26:49 > 0:26:51It's not going to ruin things for us, is it?
0:26:51 > 0:26:52We'll be fine.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55I bet you won't get anything new about Aamir from Mum.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57I'm not going to Mum. I've got other plans.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Shak, Alia. Can you come down here?
0:27:02 > 0:27:03What's her problem?
0:27:13 > 0:27:15Condoms! Really?
0:27:23 > 0:27:24School fees are, like, massive.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26You wouldn't have to work such long hours.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28I've told you, that's not a problem.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30I really enjoy my work.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Bowling? Ah. Sounds wonderful. Shall I book? No, I'm on it.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36I want to make up for the other day.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38How did you feel about Karen talking over you?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41I'm used to that, she never listens to my point of view.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Hello, gorgeous. Do you know what you're after today?
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Everything.
