PLOT:
Middle-class woman Bess Denyar discovers that she's adopted. She's shocked to find that her birth parents head up a drag-racing team in the outer suburbs.
Also known as "Bess of Both Worlds".
season 1 -
Bess is angry at Margaret for lying to her all these years and decides to concentrate on getting to know her real parents. However, becoming one big family could take longer than hoped. Wayne and Julie give Bess a ride in a V8 Supercar to make up for all the birthdays they've missed. Bess is trying hard to please everyone, but no longer sure where she belongs. Bess arranges a lunch for her two mothers, which doesn't quite go as planned. Julie feels terrible for giving Bess up for adoption and presents her with a rather unusual gift. Danny is devastated when Edwina wants to quit the bassoon after restless bullying at school. She makes everything alright at a music concert where she plays in a way no one expects. After backing into another car, Wayne is forced to take a driving test. At work, Bess has a bullying issue and Wayne offers to come to her rescue, unaware she may also come to his. Angry with Margaret for not taking her diabetes seriously, Bess sets up training sessions with newly qualified Brianna. Margaret reluctantly agrees, but is surprised at the outcome. Bess and family support Team Wheeler at the drag racing championships. Bess tries to solve engine problems, however the aftermath is filled with fury. Will they sever ties?
season 2 -
Bess struggling with the adoption discovery, develops some misplaced trust issues. Danny continues with his new passive cooling system and Troy is longing to get back with Amber. After a sex education night at school, Oscar is keen to learn all he can and it leaves Bess wondering if she and Danny are in a rut. Brianna becomes a direct sales lingerie franchisee. Bess is concerned the Brights don't have any family bonding hobbies like the Wheelers. Meanwhile, Julie discovers Wayne is the descendant of rich relatives. Shawn races against Team Wheeler's arch rivals the Amentas in the junior drags. Bess is delighted to involve her family until Edwina develops a super crush. Amber applies for a promotion at the bank, which requires a good word from Margaret. Bess is tiring OF medical-related visits from the Wheelers. Wayne wants to surprise Julie with an expensive necklace for their 30th wedding anniversary, however, a toothache causes some physical and financial pain. Edwina talks Danny into letting Shawn do work experience with him, exposing his middle class lifestyle. Meanwhile, Margaret's doctor insists she must find a dog to walk every day. After a TV news story about the Wheelers paints Julie as an old woman who is past her use by date, Julie decides she won't race anymore and, reasoning that she's the only driver, sells the dragster to help the family get out of debt.
season 3 -
The Brights move into an ultra modern house designed by Danny, who refuses to let Bess clutter it with their old furniture. When a shop owner commissions Kayne to paint his designs, Margaret is outraged that she has no plans to pay him. Bess grapples with a gift from Julie and Danny fumes when a coffee shop copies his shirt to make its uniform. When Bess discovers that Julie has a secret sister, she enlists Brianna, Amber and Margaret to spy. Danny reluctantly takes Oscar away to a conference and Wayne fights the council after they shut down Kayne's backyard shop. Amber is appalled when Shawn invites his new girlfriend to stay. Bess is upset when Edwina wants to do medicine after meeting a surgeon, having never been inspired by her. Shawn drops out of school, so Amber turns to the school principal who helps in an unexpected manner. Julie is injured so Kayne offers to drive for Team Wheeler, while Bess and Danny prepare Oscar for a wilderness expedition. Bess brings Margaret and Julie to a Mothers' Day lunch, where Bess having "two mothers" is misunderstood. The Wheelers help Amber and Evan at a hardware store sausage sizzle and Danny signs the kids up for a charity bike ride. Brianna coaches Edwina's rowing team, with much more gusto than Edwina wants. Bess struggles to tell Margaret and Julie that she's spending Christmas in New York. Wayne and Kayne try to make their Christmas lights display the best on the street.
