Episode 3 - Stuart Watson - What happens when an investigative journalist researches his family secrets?

What happens when an investigative journalist investigates the skeletons in his family's cupboard?
Stuart Watson was put up for adoption by his birth mother the moment he was born after his biological father abandoned them. After four months in foster care, he was placed with adopting parents. Because it was a closed adoption, Stuart never knew that alcoholism ran in his family and that he had a full-blood brother and sister and all three siblings became alcoholics, despite being raised in different homes.
Once Stuart got sober at mid life, he used his skills as an investigative journalist to track his origins, and was stunned at the story of his father and mother, who met in one of the largest mental hospitals in the world and went on to marry after his adoption.
