The South Bank Show is a television arts magazine show produced by ITV between 1978 and 2010. A new series began on Sky Arts from 27 May 2012. Presented by Melvyn Bragg, the show aims to bring both high art and popular culture to a mass audience.

Instead of GCSEs, Cain, Riyad and Jonjo got sentences. Inside a young offenders’ institution they trade sweets, chat, kill time – and await fatherhood. Grace’s job is to turn these teenagers into parents, ready to take charge of their futures. But can they grow up quickly enough?

Jamie, 20, the older of two brothers, is midway through an attempt to extract younger brother Harry, 13, from the care home he himself was put through as a teenager. However, when Jamie's application for custody is rejected, his initial anger is gradually replaced with a difficult realisation.
