Description: In 2008, David Rigby made a decision that would change his life forever; he was going to have a baby. As a gay man, he knew that it was going to be challenging, but he could have no idea just how difficult it would be until he took his first tentative steps towards fatherhood. '7th Time Lucky' charts this journey, beginning with David's attempts to find a reputable agency to handle the surrogacy process, and his unlucky encounter with the 'fertility fraudster', John Gonzalez.
