Ed may be in line for an inheritance, as long as he can prove who he is.

Ed may be in line for an inheritance, as long as he can prove who he is. Stars Christopher Douglas. From 2017.

It came as no great surprise to Ed that when his father, Sidney, died, he made sure that no one got a mention in his will by not leaving one. 

Ed's son Jake, never one to miss an opportunity to make some money, introduces Ed to his old school friend Dozzer who it transpires is a qualified heir hunter who has discovered that the late Sidney Reardon had a property which Ed could inherit. All he needs to do is proves his identity and keep his children away from it.
