Austin on ABC and ABC iview S1E7 – Austin (Michael Theo) and his new half-sister Florence (Ellie Mckay) meet for the first time in preparation for the rough cut screening of the documentary – The Greatest Man I Never Knew.
Florence and Austin soon realise they have more things in common than the same father, and that Austin doesn’t do sarcasm.
The discovery by Florence of Ingrid’s (Sally Phillips) pre Big Bear nude paintings, titled the Phallum Series, sets Ingrid on a new course to exhibit her work.
A gallery is organised and a date set for her solo exhibition, which leaves Julian (Ben Miller) feeling creatively abandoned.
But Ingrid’s exhibition proves to be the least of Julian’s worries when the “rough Cut” of “The Greatest Man I Never Knew”, reveals Julian’s self-serving intentions to Austin. A rogue video clip reveals Julian stating that Austin may not be his son at all, but if it helps resurrect his career what does it matter? Austin quickly exits the cinema. Will Austin forgive Julian for the ultimate betrayal?
