8 | Julie & Rab Fernandez

Actress Julie ("Fernacka -Pants") Fernandez and her big brother Rab were not always as close as they are today. Their larger-than-life dad Barney could 'light up a room" and dominated their extraordinary childhood, moving the family around the world and creating a technicolour life – which could be thrilling, but was often unhappy and sometimes violent. At the same time, 'diddy' Julie's brittle bones meant endless trips to hospital, enduring 70 operations and months spent in plaster, something she knows Rab also found difficult. Despite everything, their relationship is now rock solid – and one in which they both find complete trust.
