Sir David Jason shares his regret over not being in his long lost daughter's life for 52 years as he recalls how he REALLY felt the moment he received the 'most astonishing' letter that revealed his secret child
In his new memoir This Time Next Year, David has recalled the overwhelming cascade of emotions he felt upon seeing the life-changing letter.
Opening up on the extraordinary moment in his life and how he wishes he knew Abi sooner, David said there is 'the pang of sadness for those missing years, all that lost time'. Abi says while she had no idea who her father was - she had her suspicions after hearing about Jason's relationship with her mother while they both starred in a stage adaptation of the Dylan Thomas radio play Under Milk Wood in 1970. She also seems to have inherited some of his famed acting ability, having appeared in an episode of Doctor Who and remarkably a revival performance of Under Milk Wood in 2008 where Sir David and her mother also took part.
