Plot
In Wales, Gabriel and Andy are a gay couple who have been together for eight years and are eager to adopt a child. They begin the process of adoption with the assistance of their social worker, Jackie. Andy is excited about the prospect of becoming a father, while his partner Gabriel, a drag queen, is hesitant, not only due to his past issues with drug addiction but also because of his unhappy childhood, which was marked by his mother's death and his father's homophobia. Although the couple initially wanted to adopt a girl, they meet and begin to grow fond of Jake, a child placed in foster care after being removed from his violent father. ==Cast and characters==
