When Mo went to prison hundreds of miles from home, his older sister would visit him but he didn't see his mum in person until he was more than two years into his sentence, and his youngest sister didn't come to visit him at all. He went five years without seeing her. How did he and his family come to these decisions, and what was it like reconnecting after all this time?

Faye Dunn went to prison as the mum of two young children, and she had a difficult decision to make about whether to expose them to the prison environment. How did she approach parenting from behind bars, and what are things like now?
