Colin's two sons from his first marriage, Peter and Leo, share the house, as do Rupinder's half-sister Sima, daughter Kavita and son Raj, a wheelchair user withcerebral palsy . The 'me' in the title was Raj, and his thoughts were heard in a voiceover.At the end of the first series Colin and Rupinder had their own child.
