At Home with the Braithwaites

- Season 3

(2002)

Alison is awarded a dame-hood by the Queen for her charity work but her joy is short lived when she discovers that she is pregnant. David is delighted by this but is unaware that the baby is actually his brother Graham's.

David suggests that Alison tells everyone that the baby is actually his with no one - especially not Graham - knowing the truth and together they tell everyone about the pregnancy.

Alison, now six months pregnant, has to defend her lottery win in court after the lottery has contested it. All Alison has to do is stick to the line that she - rather than under-age daughter Charlotte - bought the ticket.

A death in the family brings Alison and David closer together - before they cross paths with an unwelcome visitor. Elsewhere, Sarah exacts revenge on a cheating Daniel.

Already rattled by Charlotte's odd behaviour and fed up with David trying to blame her for everything, Alison is pushed to her limits when Graham insists on his right to be involved with the baby.

A shocked and still drunk David calls Alison and tells her that he has robbed a bank. Alison, of course, doesn't believe a word and tells him to sober up. But a report of a bank robbery on the local news has Alison starting to fear the worst.
