The producers leave it until the last 20 minutes of the show to tell us that Julie has been unemployed for 15 years because her son Regan is severely disabled with brain damage and needs round-the-clock care. She said of the crash team that saved him: “If I ever won the lottery they could have every penny of it.”
A scene where she sings “The first time ever I saw your face” to him left many a viewer with a tear in their eye. And everyone who’d previously slammed her for being a scrounger felt pretty bad right about now.
