I'm an admitted fan of Patrick Stewart... both as an actor and in his off-screen activities. His activism in recent years on the issue of domestic violence is informed in his childhood memories of an alcoholic father beating his mother.
I've just come across a fascinating and moving episode from British television ("Who do you think you are") featuring his efforts to discover who his father was and why he became the angry, violent man that Stewart met as a child when he came home from the war.
It's quite moving. I was also very interested in the (considerable) WWII material included as Stewart retraces his father's war service, and makes some quite revealing discoveries.
HIghly recommended. Full episode available on YouTube:
