James O'Neil(XIII)
James and Sam are a father and son who share a close bond, but James was often away for up to eight weeks due to working on oil rigs, which has left him feeling like an 'absent father'. He wants to make up for lost time and make lasting memories with his teenage son before he becomes an adult. James and Sam have always talked about travelling the world together. As James has been away so much for work, he admits to missing half of his son's life. After Sam moved out last year, they have been missing each other even more.
