Was pastry chef Graham Hornigold conned by his own mother?
-
A real-life story of deception is told in Netflix's true-crime documentary Con Mum. The oneoff film centres on former Junior Bake Off judge Graham Hornigold, who never knew his mother following a troubled and abusive childhood.
So when he received an email out of the blue in 2020 from a woman called Dionne declaring she was his biological mother, he couldn't wait to meet her.
This story is from the March 22, 2025 edition of TV & Satellite Week.
