  Disappointing Your Parents 28 October 2004  
Fly the family flag or ploughing a new furrow?

What pressures face those who want to follow their parents' careers - particularly if they happen to be famous? And what if you don't? 

Jenni is joined in the studio by comedian Alan Carr, who has written a play called No Substitute about his childhood growing up.  Journalist Penny Junor also joins the discussion to talk about how family ties are stretched or strengthened by just such decisions.
