Parable in Luke about a wanderer returning (8,3)

I believe the answer is:

prodigal son

(Other definitions for prodigal son that I've seen before include "family member" , "Wanderer returned" , "Repentant profligate" , "Subject of a parable" , "Wastrel in Bible story" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
