Cops arrested the man and brought him in for questioning, and he admitted to touching his daughter in bed after drinking.
One of the investigators said: “For the defendant to admit to sexually touching the victim, it seemed to be his world has crumbled around him. He was upset, he was quiet, he was emotional, however I got the impression that he was certainly watering down his involvement.”
During the questioning, the man claimed he couldn’t remember what had happened.
The end of the episode revealed a court found him guilty and handed him a “lengthy jail term”.
What did Channel 4 viewers say?

A third wrote: “Own daughter?! Prison isn’t enough.”
A fourth, fuming, said: “Jesus, this is horrific. The story of the dad raping his daughter, no words.”
