George Knight (played by Colin Salmon) was horrified to learn the truth earlier this year, about the man that his adopted dad Eddie (Christopher Fairbank) had viciously murdered when he was 15, was actually his real dad.
As he still adjusts to life without Eddie and his late mum Gloria (Elizabeth Counsell), family friend Angela (Susan Auderin) tells George that his brothers Kobina (Jonathan Nyati) and Kojo (Dayo Koleosho) are in London.
They wish to finally meet their sibling but how are they to react when they discover that George witnessed the death of their dad all those years ago?
