I seem to remember a previous actor and the actress who played young Susan did sound Scottish.

What I don't understand is how did Daniel support himself if Denise had left him hardly any money?

I think most people aren't as hurt by abandonment if they were surrounded by love from other parental figures but you'd think Peter had Oliver Twist's childhood and I can't remember him ever duscussing his grandparents. If they were mean it would explain Peter's behavior more than just being deserted by Ken.Marichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00295287855690799143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-2348496092625380462016-12-10T21:59:50.930+00:002016-12-10T21:59:50.930+00:00I really like the relationship developing between ...I really like the relationship developing between them too. Maybe Peter sees this as a chance to "get it right" - to be a good influence on someone, in the role of older brother. It could give him some much-needed confidence.<br /><br />It's true that children tend to mirror what they watched/learned from the adults in their lives.

If Simon and Amy steer clear of the rails that their respective Barlow parents veered off, it will in large measure be due to Ken's steady influence.
