I'll Be There is a 2003 British comedy-drama film directed and co-written by Craig Ferguson, who, in his directorial debut, also stars in the film with singer Charlotte Church in her film debut.
Charlotte Church stars as an unknown singer who is blessed with a beautiful, natural singing voice. Her character was conceived (literally) the night her mother met a Scottish rock star (Craig Ferguson), but the couple fell out of touch and her dad never knew he had a daughter. Much later, he is "sectioned" after a motorcycle accident viewed as a suicide attempt, and he meets her while confined to a psychiatric hospital. They get to know each other and become the family they always wanted to be.
