The Somerset mother fighting for justice for her narcoleptic son. Will new welfare reforms that favour older council house owners cause tension between generations?
The story of a mother from Somerset fighting to get justice for her son who developed narcolepsy. Growing evidence links her son's condition to a vaccine he was administered, but will the government and the pharmaceutical company finally admit that the two are linked?

And the story behind one of the most famous Irish songs...written by a man from Somerset who never set foot in Ireland.
