Product Description

Dougray Scott stars as ex-con Michael O’Connor in a heart-rending tale of redemption from Emmy award-winning screenwriter Frank Deasy (Prime Suspect: The Final Act).

Michael was a Manchester gangster - one of the toughest around. While he served his time, his wife paid the ultimate price. All Michael wants now is a fresh start. He’s turned his back on his 15 year old son Sean and moved to Ireland with his pregnant girlfriend.

But Michael’s past comes calling. Sean has been caught up in a shooting and stands accused of murder. Michael is the only person who can help, but if he takes this second chance to be a father to his boy he must return to Manchester and his old life one last time to find the answers.

Waiting for him there are his old criminal associates, a cop who wants to put him back in jail and the devastating trail that leads him to his wife’s killer. But if Michael secures his son’s freedom, he’ll stand to lose everything....

Can Michael make this final pivotal decision?

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best of British drama 12 July 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a heart-rending British crime and family drama. Its intensity reminds me of the outstanding Cannes winner, The Prophet (France). Father & Son has a wonderful cast, all are excellent especially Dougray Scott as the ex-con father and Reece Noi his son. It is hard to believe that the characters are actually actors: they are so accomplished and believable. Buy it now if you want the very best of British drama! Frank Deasy, Emmy award winner, wrote the brilliant script.

I saw the trailer on ITV 1 but sadly missed the programme, how pleased was I to find that it had been released on DVD. Very good programme Just a shame it was a one off.

Brilliant- quite fast paced from the beginning, doesn't hang around for the plot to take off. Although , the plot does become deeper, lots of twists to be had. Read more
