Ben has been a Dad for all of 10 weeks, and he’s already handing out lessons on how to get your baby to sleep. This angers Tom, who has tried many tactics to get a good night sleep with his two kids. It would help if he didn’t behave like a toddler himself, and went to bed at a reasonable hour. Andrew has a daughter who sleeps perfectly every night, but a three year old who does as he pleases. He has taken the step of locking him in his room (whoa controversial). Ben, Tom and Andrew all agree on “controlled crying”, and discuss the merits and theories of the one known as: SLEEP DOCTOR.Most importantly, however, Tom reveals the political machinations of Thomas the Tank engine. He says it is a show with a dark side, influencing its impressionable audience particularly during Britain’s tumultuous Thatcher era. During this time, Tom says narrator and Beatle Ringo Starr “sold out”.  Even now TTTE remains as political as ever, embroiled in controversy with the introduction of foreign engines and more female trains. Dads Don't Know takes you deep into the minds of fathers, to get their insights and real perspectives on all facets of parenting.
