She mentioned her Dad and her father but it was always Mrs. Winterston, never Mum or Mother. Love and hatred of one person in conflict.
Must try one of her books although I don't think I'd like them.
Try her autobio' "Why be happy when you could be normal" Gordon. It gets a few mentions in these threads and the Yentob programme supplements it. The book covers in more detail her search for her birth mother and her problems in so doing.
