0:00:26 > 0:00:30I'm Kyle Slater.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32We had the same dad.
0:00:32 > 0:00:33Brian.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Stace...
0:00:37 > 0:00:39you ain't seen my phone, have ya?
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Who's this?
0:00:41 > 0:00:45This is...um...this is Kyle.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Kyle from the market.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48He's going to cover my stall for my maternity.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Oh, right.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52- Listen, can we just... - I need to talk to you.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56I-I need to... Let's go to the cafe.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- Bye, Sister Judith.- God bless.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Here, aren't you going to eat them chips?
0:01:07 > 0:01:09No, I'm cutting down on potatoes.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Talk about closing the door after the horse has bolted!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Did I leave my phone here?
0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Is this it?- That's it. Cheers.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19- Stacey spoke to ya? - Nah, I didn't get a chance.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- She's gone off with some bloke. - What bloke?- I dunno.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Something to do with covering her stall.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Has she mentioned anything to you? - No, no, she ain't.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Right. See you in a bit.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39I didn't know you'd seen me.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43- I wasn't really following you, just...- Just spying on me?
0:01:43 > 0:01:46I was trying to build up the courage to talk to you.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48I know it must be a shock, someone you didn't know existed...
0:01:48 > 0:01:52I know my dad had another family. I found out last month.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54My mum told me you'd written to her or something. You upset her.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I didn't mean to.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Well, she gets upset a lot, so don't write to her again.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01What do you want? You must want something.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03You've been stalking me all these weeks.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- I just wanted to meet you. - This him, then?
0:02:07 > 0:02:09You go on about your perfect family
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- and all the time you've been hiding this one.- What?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- Arthur's real dad!- Arthur?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18What, she ain't told you that's what she's named your kid?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21You've been cheating on Martin with this?
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Some third-rate Bradley lookalike?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26He can't even grow proper facial hair!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- He ain't Arthur's dad. - Who is he, then?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32I'm Kyle.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33I'm her brother.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35In yer dreams, love!
0:02:35 > 0:02:38My dad had another family. Happy now?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Remember the key that I used to wear around my neck?
0:02:40 > 0:02:42It was for a safety deposit box that my dad left for us all.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44My mum had the same key.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46She cleared it out when she found out he'd died.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50- What was in it? - Photos. Birth certificates.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Letters.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Marriage certificates. Both of them.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Both of them? Wha-what do you mean both of them?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- He married your mum? - He can't. He was married to my mum!
0:03:02 > 0:03:04You didn't know?
0:03:04 > 0:03:08If it means anything, Mum didn't know about your family either...
0:03:08 > 0:03:10not until Dad died.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Even then she didn't tell anyone.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- She told you. - In September. On my 21st.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Oh, nice.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19"Happy birthday! Blow out yer candles.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22"By the way, your dad had a harem!"
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Actually, she wrapped up all the stuff from the safety deposit box
0:03:24 > 0:03:26and sent it to me as a present.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29- She wanted to hurt me. - So why didn't she want to see you?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31What, she turfed you out?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Are you all right?- Yeah.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Do you think Jean knows he was a bigamist?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41I'm sorry your mum did that.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42I thought you knew.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44I don't really remember him.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I was only five when he died.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50I have memories, but, to be honest, I think I get them from photographs.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Building sandcastles in Norfolk.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Sticking little flags in them.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I'd fill a bucket with water and we'd make moats around them.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Stace...
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Stay put, you!
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- He's going to be fine, you know. - You don't know him like I do.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14- You mother him too much. - No, I don't.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19Well, you're too overprotective of him. You should cut him some slack.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Have you any idea what Kyle's been through?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25No, you haven't cos you weren't there.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I was.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30I just hope that this Stacey accepts him cos, if she doesn't,
0:04:30 > 0:04:33I know what it'll do to him.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Deep breaths.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41I need to...I need to tell Martin. He needs to know I've had a sign.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44What do you mean, "a sign"?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Martin can wait, right?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49You've got to get your head around all this.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I dunno what he was thinking,
0:04:51 > 0:04:53turning up declaring he's your brother.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57- Subtle as a brick! - That was...that was MY memory.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58- What was?- Norfolk.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Th-th-that's where we used to go every year.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Every year, same house, same beach,
0:05:04 > 0:05:06and he took him there and his mum?
0:05:06 > 0:05:11Why? Why, why? What, was he laughing at us?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14That weren't my dad. He weren't like that.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Maybe he had one of those discount group booking things, you know -
0:05:18 > 0:05:21two wives for the price of one.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Sandcastles were our thing and the packs of flags.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29You remember the packs with loads and loads of different flags?
0:05:30 > 0:05:33I never saw the point in sandcastles, really.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35I was more into taking a net down to rock pools.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37You have to remember the flags, Kat!
0:05:37 > 0:05:39They were packs and they had all different ones in
0:05:39 > 0:05:43and they had one with a dragon and Dad used to help me build a tower
0:05:43 > 0:05:45and I used to put the flags in the top
0:05:45 > 0:05:47and Sean would come along and kick them over.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49That would start Mum off and then Dad would say,
0:05:49 > 0:05:52"Oh, I can't even get any peace on holiday!"
0:05:54 > 0:05:56We always loved Margate.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I loved the waltzer in Dreamland,
0:05:59 > 0:06:01until Belinda puked all over me mid-go.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Norfolk and sandcastles, that was OUR thing.
0:06:05 > 0:06:06It was special.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10It was mine and Dad's thing and now it's not, is it? It's not special.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14It was a lie cos the whole time he was doing the same thing with him!
0:06:14 > 0:06:18Don't let him rob you of your memories.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Maybe...Maybe they weren't mine.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Maybe they never happened.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Maybe I dreamt them and all the time
0:06:25 > 0:06:27they were real for other people and not me.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Course they were real!
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- I saw him on Halloween.- What, Kyle?
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Dad.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38He was watching over me.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41No, you didn't. I know you think you did, but you didn't.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43I know what I saw, Kat,
0:06:43 > 0:06:45and you haven't got an answer for everything!
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Don't turn on me!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Anyone would say the same thing if you told them
0:06:48 > 0:06:51you were seeing dead people!
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- I'm only trying to help. - I don't want your help!
0:06:53 > 0:06:56I've got Dad looking after me and Arthur.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Stace, I think you need to see a doctor.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02No, no, what I need, Kat, is for you to just leave me alone!
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Just go back to Spain. I don't want you here!
0:07:04 > 0:07:06I don't even know why you came back.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I came back here because I missed you!
0:07:09 > 0:07:12REALLY missed you in me bones.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16You must've missed me an' all?
0:07:21 > 0:07:24You don't care.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29I've lost Zoe and now I've lost you.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30You lost Zoe?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- She don't want to know. - But you're her mum.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Nah.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43I'm just a 14-year-old kid that gave birth to her.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45You said that things were good.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47I was lying, weren't I?
0:07:49 > 0:07:52On the way over there, all I could think about
0:07:52 > 0:07:55was having all my kids together for the first time.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Talk about butterflies.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Then, when we got there, I didn't hear from her for three days.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04I kept ringing, leaving messages,
0:08:04 > 0:08:08and then, when we did meet, it was in a bar on the beach.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I was so nervous that I'd had a few drinks.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16I wouldn't have had so many if she wasn't so late.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I thought she weren't going to turn up.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22It must have taken a lot for Kyle to come and find me.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25I could have rejected him, couldn't I?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28I'm glad, I'm glad that he found me.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31It's more family looking out for Arthur, ain't it?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I'm trying to tell you about me and Zoe!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35What about her?
0:08:37 > 0:08:41When she did turn up, she didn't even try to hide her disgust.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45I knew what she was thinking.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49Her sister-mum turning up with her tribe.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Doesn't really go with the new life out there, does it?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59I don't know who I was kidding, winning all that money,
0:08:59 > 0:09:01big new start.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05I didn't expect a bunch of flowers.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11She's never been mine.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14From the minute she was born she belonged to someone else.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Mums do the best for their kids, Kat.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19That's what makes them sacred.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Sacred?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24What are you on about?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Anyway, she's engaged to some bloke in property now.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I see him standing by his flash car.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34She didn't even introduce us.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Didn't want him finding out about her bit-of-rough mum
0:09:37 > 0:09:39from London Town.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44She only come along to tell me that she didn't want to know.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51She didn't even want to see the boys.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56See, I don't get a happy family reunion like you.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01But you deserve it, though.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Oh, so what if Brian had a bit on the side?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07If it means you've found family, that's good, innit?
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Get to know Kyle.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Kyle.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Kat, what if he's a complete weirdo?
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Probably! He's a Slater, ain't he?
0:10:32 > 0:10:35What's she doing here?
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Is there something going on? Just the pair of you...
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Look, he's got nothing to do with maternity leave, has he?
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- No, he's my brother. - Whoa, whoa, hang on. Hang on.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- He's the one who's been following you?- Yeah.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Is there anything I can do?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55No, it's fine. I'm going to go in the cafe.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57I'm going to get to know him.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Yeah, why don't I take Arthur then you can just have...
0:10:59 > 0:11:01No, I-I don't want to take all this off.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- OK, I'll shut the stall, then. - No, it's fine. Honestly, it's fine.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Stace, the whole thing with the birth certificate,
0:11:08 > 0:11:10I won't put any pressure on, I promise.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Martin, we'll sort it. You've got a customer.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16I just hope she's coming back.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18No, of course I've not told her.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21It's not exactly something you blurt out on your first meeting, is it?
0:11:23 > 0:11:25She's back. I got to go.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29My cousin, Kat, she's been living in Spain. She likes you.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31- Who was that?- Er...Soph.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33We work together in a restaurant.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Well, burger place.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39She's been my best mate since we started high school.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41We moved down to London from Blackpool.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Anyway, she came with today, and my flatmates.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Moral support.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51We both got completely wasted New Years, made resolutions
0:11:51 > 0:11:54and swore we'd help each other keep them.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Finding the courage to talk to you was mine.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Sorry... I don't normally talk so much.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Kat said I should hang onto you.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- Can I trust ya?- Yeah.
0:12:08 > 0:12:09I want you to...
0:12:09 > 0:12:13You-you don't want nothing? You don't want nothing at all?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16I want to meet you, talk to you.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Nothing else.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23So you knew about me, then?
0:12:23 > 0:12:25No.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28I knew my dad had another family.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31We never had a dog. Did you have a dog?
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Mum doesn't like pets.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36There's just me and my sisters, Siobhan and Shannon.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37I'm the youngest.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40He started all our names with an S, an S for sugar, apart from you.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44You've got a brother, haven't you?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Yeah, he's not in the country. He's gone.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Maybe you could pass this onto him.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52This one's for you.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57They're from the safety deposit box.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59I had a letter as well and my sisters.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03It's from Dad.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09I haven't been in a cab for ages.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Still the same, though.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Flash them the rosary and they turn the meter off.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18He probably thinks he's bought himself a place in heaven.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Sorry about the mess. Me dad and nan are visiting.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24They met your mate earlier. She said you were sick.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Oh, did she now?
0:13:27 > 0:13:29She didn't tell me she was coming
0:13:29 > 0:13:32but I happened to see her appointment book.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35So, um...why have you come, then?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Not that it's not nice to see you.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40And it's VERY nice to see you again, Kat.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Quite a tan you've got there.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46We've been running a bar in Spain.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51I NEEDED to see you.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53If it's about that cheque that I gave to your mate,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55you ain't got to thank me.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58It's about what happened when you were a girl,
0:13:58 > 0:14:00when you first came to us.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01SIGHS
0:14:01 > 0:14:04I REALLY don't want to talk about that any more.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07There's something I think you don't know.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Something you NEED to know.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Aren't you going to read it?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20He used to take us to Norfolk too.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25I bet he bought us packs of flags from the same place.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Th-there must be a reason why he did it.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31We just have to figure out why.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Animals loved him.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39We never had a dog but we had a cat called Whisky,
0:14:39 > 0:14:41and he had three black paws and one white one.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44He used to follow him to the pub and then sit outside and wait.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45Yeah?
0:14:45 > 0:14:48He loved football. He was really good at football.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51All sports, really, but mainly football.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53I love football.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55Played a bit when I was little.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59Don't hate him.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03My mum does.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Says he turned her life into a lie.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10She never went with anyone after him.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Said she couldn't trust men.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14But I don't see it like that.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I couldn't hate him if I tried.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19He's my Dad.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23You've got his smile.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32You had a...a difficult labour.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37You were such a tiny mite, your body couldn't cope.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40You were upset, distressed.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44You were screaming the place down,
0:15:44 > 0:15:47then passing out.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49And?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Then we realised...
0:15:52 > 0:15:54What?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56..you were having twins.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01Zoe was the first, followed shortly by a little boy.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05No.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07You were exhausted.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10You didn't know what was going on.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12He was fine.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Had a very healthy cry on him.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18You're wrong.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21I think you've got me confused with some other sinner.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23LAUGHS
0:16:23 > 0:16:27I'd know! I'd know if I had another child.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30CHUCKLES
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Did your mum say anything about this?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Like I said... we don't really have a relationship.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Same with my sisters.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Since I was 14 there's only really been Soph.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Did you ever feel...
0:16:50 > 0:16:55I mean...I've always felt things were missing,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57all my life.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00I couldn't explain it.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03But then, when I found out about you...
0:17:04 > 0:17:07..things just fell into place.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Sounds stupid I know, but...
0:17:15 > 0:17:17..meeting you...
0:17:19 > 0:17:22..I don't feel so empty any more.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25I think I'm beginning to feel the same.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31When it happened, we didn't know he'd died.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32Mum just thought he'd left her.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Once, when I asked where he was, she...er...
0:17:35 > 0:17:37snapped and slapped me,
0:17:37 > 0:17:40broke down in tears.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41A few months after he disappeared,
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Mum bumped into someone he worked with, another builder.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49He told her he'd died.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51She...
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Well...
0:17:53 > 0:17:56as you can imagine, it devastated her.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59That's horrible.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01That's really, really horrible.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04W-why would he do that to both of them?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Un-unless he had to...
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Unless...
0:18:10 > 0:18:14Unless he had to because he knew that we needed to find you!
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- How do you mean?- Me and Arthur.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20That's, that's... That's what you are, isn't it?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23You're Dad's gift for Arthur.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34I'd know. I'd know if I had twins.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38You're lying!
0:18:38 > 0:18:41I wish I was, Kathleen. I'm sorry.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44This ain't right.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Why are you saying this?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Why are you trying to upset me?
0:18:49 > 0:18:53You think I'd make up something as important as this?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Why would I?
0:18:55 > 0:18:59You had Zoe and then you had a little boy.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03So what happened to him then?
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Did he magically disappear?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13- Did he die?- No, he didn't die.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18So why didn't I know I had him, then?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Because you're making it all up, aren't you?
0:19:25 > 0:19:29You didn't know because your mother didn't want us to tell you.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34The minute he was born she demanded he be taken away.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38She didn't want him.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42She could handle the girl.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46She could easily pass her off as one of her own, I suppose,
0:19:46 > 0:19:48but not the boy.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50She wouldn't consider it.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53She was adamant.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00My mum?
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Viv?
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Yes.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29I had a boy?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Yes.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40- I've got to go. - Oh, right, of course.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- How old's Arthur? - He was born on Christmas Eve.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Should have called him Jesus.
0:20:47 > 0:20:52Can I give you my number, you know, in case you ever want to chat?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55OK...but you need to do it right now.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05I'm glad we've met.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11You really do have his smile.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24If I'd known I would have kept him. I would have kept them both.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28I'm sure you would have, but sadly what is done is done.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33What happened to him?
0:21:33 > 0:21:39Shortly after the birth, I went to join our mission in Nigeria and when
0:21:39 > 0:21:44I came back I was told he'd been taken in by a family in Ireland.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49So that's it?
0:21:49 > 0:21:53He's just...handed over like an unwanted dog?
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Oh, I didn't say he was unwanted.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58I'd have wanted him.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01Did you give him a name?
0:22:01 > 0:22:06Yes, we called him Luke, after the Evangelist,
0:22:06 > 0:22:10but, of course, when people adopt babies, they sometimes rename them.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Luke.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17Yeah, I like it.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21But you must know more.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24Paperwork? Letters?
0:22:24 > 0:22:29- Something that can tell me where he was taken...- I'm sorry.
0:22:29 > 0:22:34You let someone steal a baby and all you can say is sorry?!
0:22:39 > 0:22:41She had a baby, Arthur.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43He was born on Christmas Eve.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- I'm an uncle. - And she's a millionaire as well?
0:22:46 > 0:22:50- Nah, I think that's her cousin. - Still, this is brilliant.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52I'm so pleased for you.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54What's she like?
0:22:54 > 0:22:56A bit...weird.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58How weird?
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Well, I don't think she's on drugs.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04She can't be cos of Arthur, but...wired.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Maybe that's just her reacting to you turning up?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Yeah, I guess. I just hope she calls.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12She said she would.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14She will. I'm so excited for you!
0:23:14 > 0:23:17But you're not to be all "Stacey this and Stacey that"
0:23:17 > 0:23:20or I'll get jealous!
0:23:20 > 0:23:22I'm only joking.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Maybe next time you see her you can tell her everything.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28No.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30I don't think I want her knowing.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34- Where are the others? - You know them. They're at the pub.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Sounds like a good idea.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- I'm so proud of you. - I'm proud of myself.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47I've seen films about nuns stealing babies.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50You think it's all made up until it happens to you.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53We didn't steal him.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55We BEGGED your mother to take him.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- We thought we'd persuaded her. - So why didn't she?
0:23:58 > 0:24:00How could she NOT have wanted him?
0:24:00 > 0:24:03She must have had her reasons.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07I thought I knew who I was.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10I wanted to be Kathleen again.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14- Fat chance! - You STILL are Kathleen.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Why now?
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Why am I finding all this out now?
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Don't you think I've been through enough?
0:24:23 > 0:24:26When you came to the care home,
0:24:26 > 0:24:30I knew you were searching for something.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32You could have told me then.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34But I wasn't sure.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37My memory plays tricks from time to time.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40I'm not a well woman and I had to be sure.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45So Sister Judith and I went through the records and found the entry.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51"Kathleen Slater - twins.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54"A girl and a boy."
0:24:56 > 0:25:00I couldn't go to my grave without you knowing.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05I know what it's like to...
0:25:05 > 0:25:07have a child taken from you.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11No, you don't.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14I wasn't always a nun.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19I had two children, before I took Holy Orders.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24A girl and a boy.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Barbara and Tony.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29They were wartime babies.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35My husband was on 48-hour leave from the RAF.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38It was the first time he'd seen Tony.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42My mother had been ill so I popped out for an hour to check on her.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48On my way back I was caught in an air raid
0:25:48 > 0:25:51and by the time I reached home...
0:25:53 > 0:25:55..there was nothing left of it.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58A doodlebug. Direct hit.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03I tell myself they're waiting for me
0:26:03 > 0:26:05and, God willing, I'll be with them soon.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09That's awful.
0:26:09 > 0:26:13You see, I do know.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17The difference is my babies died.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Your son is probably still alive.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27Can you forgive me?
0:26:31 > 0:26:36God gave me the strength I needed and he'll give it to you.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39I don't need strength.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42I just need to find my son.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Oh, no, wait, wait!
0:26:49 > 0:26:51Wait, wait.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55Yeah, I want to...I want to go to Park Road, St Cuthbert's.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- All right, love. - It's OK, it's OK, shh!
0:26:59 > 0:27:03It's OK, baby. No-one's going to take you.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06I'm going to keep you safe.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14Are you serious about trying to find your son?
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Dead serious.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Well, if the Church can help...
0:27:19 > 0:27:22I think the Church has helped enough, don't you?
0:27:24 > 0:27:27I don't blame you.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30You're not the one that didn't want him.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36She always said she kept Zoe for my own good
0:27:36 > 0:27:38but she was lying, wasn't she?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41She did what was best for her, not me.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47She was all over Zoe.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Always making a FUSS of her!
0:27:50 > 0:27:52I never got a look in.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56- It must have been hard for her. - I don't care if it was or wasn't.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Do you think it was easy for me
0:27:58 > 0:28:01pretending that Zoe was my little sister?
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Two chances.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Two chances I had to be a good mum.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12She took 'em both away from me.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Mum did that. No-one else. Her alone.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20But she wasn't alone.
0:28:20 > 0:28:21What?
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Well, your mother phoned someone to come and get you
0:28:24 > 0:28:27and they must have known about the little boy.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32There was someone else?
0:28:32 > 0:28:33FRONT DOOR UNLOCKS
0:28:33 > 0:28:34Who did she tell?
0:28:36 > 0:28:38- BIG MO:- Kat? - CHARLIE:- We're back!
0:28:38 > 0:28:40Mum.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42DOOR SLAMS
0:28:42 > 0:28:45It's one of them.
