	Description:		Grace Dent returns with a new series of stories from 21st century Britain. Today, 38 year old entrepreneur Simon fights to become his teenage niece's legal guardian after she was placed in care. Until last year, Simon was a highly successful businessman with a city lifestyle to match. Then his business went under - and with it his sense of purpose in life. At around the same time his 13 year old niece was placed into local authority care because of her mother's drug use. Simon resolves to get his niece out of care and become her legal guardian - but it involves a fraught legal process and a massive life change. Producer: Laurence Grissell
