Dr Cosmo Duff-Gordon is an eminent psychologist who created a completely new clinic that specialises in treating addicts - but his ancestor is the infamous Cosmo Duff-Gordon who it is claimed got into lifeboad number 1 as the Titanic sank when it was meant to be women and children first off the sinking wreck. It is claimed he dressed up as a woman to get into the life-boat and also that he bribed the rowers to row away from survivors in the water and not go back to rescue them. The cad and bounder was named the number one Cad of the twentieth century and also featured in the James Cameron hit movie 'Titanic'. Does the psychology of having this notorious ancestor drive someone like the modern day Dr Cosmo Duff-Gordon to rescue people? Psychiatrist Dr Raj Persaud probes the psychology of having a 'wrong 'un' dogging your past.
