Know nothing about this but have found some C5 original dramas quite good!

For anyone who like me is still trying to find something actually worth watching.

Is this same day or next day (that she takes him to meet the rest of the family)? If same day, surely that's a little fast; if next day, wouldn't she have had the results of her miraculously fast postal DNA test by now?

the80sweregreat · 04/02/2021 21:16

Poor Ade is going to be killed I bet!

@MythSpentYouth

Is it the brothers DNA?

CriticalWoman · 04/02/2021 21:17

The family all know that Dan isn't Tom? And Jason fixed the dna result?

myusernamewastakenbyme · 04/02/2021 21:17

Can anyone give me the gist of last nights episode...sorry to be a painGrin

norwegianwoodpecker · 04/02/2021 21:19

So the mum is a well spoken English woman
Halfpenny from the NE of England. Bro from the NW of England

Will they explain the odd back story of the family?

addicted2spaniels · 04/02/2021 21:20

I'm so disappointed with RPJ that he signed up for this shite. I'm watching in a fascinated kind of horror now.......

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2021 21:20

Dodgy Jason

Or else he would say yes have another test if eases you

EggysMom · 04/02/2021 21:22

Yep, brother protests too much.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2021 21:22

Dodgy dbs passport man is going to turn up

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2021 21:23

NO MATCH 😱😱😱😱😱😱

norwegianwoodpecker · 04/02/2021 21:23

He'd have been better off saying yes. I'll help you. And then switching the results again

JazzyGeoff · 04/02/2021 21:23

NO MATCH

AtlasPine · 04/02/2021 21:23

Ha!! You were right whoever guessed that!

YoBeaches · 04/02/2021 21:23

No match!!!!!
@RigaBalsam you're spot on I reckon!

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2021 21:23

And we know anyone can do a dna test at home

JazzyGeoff · 04/02/2021 21:25

Wtaf is Dan's Not Dad in prison for!?!

sadpapercourtesan · 04/02/2021 21:25

So...WHY did the spivvy brother switch the DNA?! What the hell is going on here?

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2021 21:25

Well it’s not his child either

Or he would be protesting Daniels mine

EggysMom · 04/02/2021 21:26

Dan's Not Dad is on remand pending presumably a hearing for abduction/kidnapping.

Hueandcry · 04/02/2021 21:26

How can her brother arrange a prison visit?

persistentwoman · 04/02/2021 21:27

An immediate prison visit ? Yeah right. Grin

Smurfymurphy · 04/02/2021 21:28

Surely then Daniel isn’t a match for anyone in the family as it would have shown some sort of match to Jody. Unless Jody isn’t a biological daughter of the mum with the weird necklaces and the dead dad.

the80sweregreat · 04/02/2021 21:28

Why is her brother so invested in this?
He is the key to all this. I am dreading the heavies killing off Ade :( unless someone saved him. I hope

AtlasPine · 04/02/2021 21:28

Daniel is so blandly sweet. I can’t imagine a 14 year old who has taken these ridiculous events so utterly on his stride with nothing but mild curiosity.
