In Jeanette's case I might be wrong but I'm sure the programme said her adoptive Mother told her that her Mother was dead.

Have just finished watching the programme - and she did indeed say that.

I found it a very interesting watch, she's honest and funny and obviously very intelligent and I think she's a great writer. She seems to have made peace with Mrs Winterson as at the end she said "I think she got the right daughter for her and I got the right mother for me." She is undoubtedly who she is because of the up-bringing she received but her sexuality was in no way affected by it, it was already decided on the day she was conceived!

I thought Accrington came across very well in the programme.
