A documentary series telling the dramatic real-life stories of six families.
Do You Remember?Colin and Pauline Winter have been married for over 30 years.
Colin was a warm and responsive husband, a loving father, and he and Pauline had an active social life. Colin loved dancing, he was captain of the local skittles team, and he and Pauline planned holidays abroad together after his retirement. But four years ago, at the early age of 49, Colin developed Alzheimer's disease. Today he can hardly speak, doesn't always recognise his three children and can no longer remember his wife's name.
"Half of my father has died already", says his son, Mark. "All we are left with is a shell."
Colin will not get better.
Pauline and her family tell their story of loving and caring for the husband and father they all adored.
Producer Lucy Sandys-Winsch Series producer Anne Webber

Robert Stephens arrives in London this week with rave notices for his performance in the Royal Shakespeare Company's King Lear, which opens at the Barbican Theatre on Thursday. This Omnibus profile (the last of the current series) looks back at a stormy career and follows Stephens backstage at Stratford-upon-Avon as he prepares for and performs Shakespeare's tragedy.
Stephens was one of the brightest stars of a theatrical generation that included Peter O'Toole and Richard Harris. His work at the Old Vic in the 60s made him a star, and his marriage to Maggie Smith propelled him into the showbusiness limelight. But then there was a falling off: his marriage broke up, and his work suffered.
The RSC "rediscovered" Stephens for the role of Falstaff in Henry IV in 1992; King Lear has put his star back at its zenith. Nigel Williams's film looks at the strange life of a man whose nightly job is to transform himself into one of Shakespeare's greatest tragic figures.
