When forty-year-old Alison Braithwaite (Amanda Redman) wins £38 million on the lottery, she decides not to tell her family, opting instead to set up a business dedicated to helping others. However, Alison is not the only family member with a secret: her bank manager husband (Peter Davison) is conducting an extra-marital affair, one daughter is experimenting with lesbianism, & the other is planning to drop out of school & run away with the boy next door. The truth will inevitably come out, but can the Braithwaite family survive? In this series, Alison's lottery winnings are no longer a secret, & the family have moved into a posh mansion. When Alison discovers her husband's affair though, she considers divorce, before the kids decide to send them on a second honeymoon to the Lake District. But when David becomes suspicious of Alison, he hires a private investigator to follow her around.
