Ever wished you could rewind your life,

go back in time to the moment you did that completely utterly

stupid thing and just undo it?

You know what I'm talking about.

Why can't someone invent an app already?

I mean, how hard can it be? We just need a button to press.

Like that one...

..right there.

MUSIC: I'd Rather Jack by The Reynolds Girls

No, no, you've gone too far back! Make it stop!!!!!

She doesn't know it was me, she thinks... My mum's denied it.

Clearly she deleted Johnny's text from me phone.

She had it in her hand! Does she think I'm stupid or summat?

Answer me this.

What does every kid in this school have?

I know... Acne.

Potential.

It's close, but it's not the right answer.

A talent, yeah?

And that is how we are going to get through to them.

Could you pass them round please, Rashid?

So, what do you reckon? Ackley's Greatest Talent, this Friday.

Worked for Johnny Cooper, didn't it? Auditions start at first break.

Please feel free to enter.

Do not deny the world your talent. LAUGHTER

That's great. Erm, look, while I've got you all here,

erm, I have a little announcement to make.

What, are you preggers again?

Oi. No. No.

I've been offered the most amazing opportunity to help set up

a whole new school, a girls school,

erm, in Nepal.

Nepal? Yeah.

Wow.

Well, I thought we could give you a good send-off, and donate all

the sales of the tickets to your new school, if you'd like?!

I would like, yes.

That's fantastic, thank you! That's great. Your very welcome.

Come on, guys, yes. CLAPPING

Woo...

We're going to miss you.

You don't read music? No.

Don't need to.

Just go by instinct.

OK... SHE LAUGHS

You're a natural.

Sounding good, guys.

Do you want to join my band?

Oh no, I don't think you could handle my talent.

Should invite your mum to this show, make the peace.

No, not until she admits what she's done.

Well, maybe she did it by accident. She probably feels really bad.

Good.

She invaded my privacy, I'm never going to forgive her for that.

Really, you're never going to forgive her?

No, why should I?

We know you can walk, what else can you do?

I'm not walking, I'm modelling!

Oh...

Look, you need someone to MC the show.

You're looking at a professional here, all right?

Miss Asian Manchester 2018.

What? You won it, yeah?

I was the compere.

Had the crowd eating out of my hand.

Come on, Sir. You don't want any of his sexist drivel.

You know I'm good in front of a crowd. Don't I just.

Mr Evershed, Fizza'd be brilliant.

CHANTING: Fizza, Fizza, Fizza!

All right, all right, majority rules.

♪ You had plenty money 1941

♪ You lost it all

♪ And then away you run... ♪

Fab-u-lous, darling. THEY CHUCKLE

Well?

If Mum's not picking up, what can I do?

Fizza, she's hurt.

She needs your help.

Kayla will go with you, won't you?

Go and talk to your mother.

Well, not now, all right, I've got stuff to do.

You are just like her -

stubborn!

What is this all this about?

I don't know...

I should go, you know what my dad gets like if I am out too long.

You don't have to come...

It's just some lame school show.

I wouldn't miss it.

What are you doing here?

Nothing much.

Just helping out...

I've finished, so I'll go...

Did my dad ask you to come here?

The girl came to help, at least someone did.

I'm not talking to you.

Why didn't you tell me? Dad said you'd gone home.

Look, Fizza, please, can we... No. You know what she's done to me.

How many times?! Why on earth would I delete your stupid messages?

Cos you can't stand that I've got a social life!

What, is it haram now to have lads text ya? I didn't...

Liar! It's the truth.

She's really got to you, hasn't she?

She didn't do it.

Is that why you came?

To accuse me again?

You know how she twists things...

It was me!

I deleted Johnny's text.

I tried to tell you but...

You don't need this, babe, come on.

You're lying...

She got you to lie.

It's the truth, right, I'm sorry.

I wish I hadn't seen it and I just don't know why...

I thought you were my friend. I am.

No.

You're a pathetic excuse for a mate.

You made me blame my mum.

You know what, from now on, stay out of my life.

Fizza!

Fizza told me.

Why did you do it?

I wanted to help her mum.

Why did do you delete my text?

I don't...

I don't know why I did it, I just...

She was upset about her mum being attacked, I'm really sorry.

What else have you lied to me about?

Nothing! I just...

I knew she'd want to go to the pub to see you so... And?

She needed to stay and sort things out with her mum.

So you should've told me, yeah.

You made me look a right idiot.

You coming?

What?

Rehearsal.

We've only got a couple of hours before we're on stage.

It's too late to find somebody else.

Come on.

Kaneez.

Talk to me.

You know that they have the earthquake in Nepal, hm?

They haven't had one for years.

They could have another, any time.

I'm just saying.

I'll miss you too,

You only human, I suppose.

You know, they're very lucky to have you there.

I hope they know how lucky they are.

I were lucky.

You know, you got my daughter into Oxford University.

I would still be a dinner lady if it weren't for you.

I'd have given birth somewhere on the A38,

sitting on Lorraine's lap if it weren't for you.

I never forget that. No.

I tried to, believe me. Oh. I tried to...

Thank you.

Pleasure.

Come on, it's time for Ackley's Greatest Talent.

How about donating to those less fortunate than yourselves,

what do you say?

Sorry, sir, got no cash on me.

Oh, come on.

Well, enjoy the show.

What you doing tomorrow night?

Erm...

..marking.

You're single and you need to mingle, bro.

Eh?

PHONE RINGS

Hey, what are you doing with my phone?

Ooh-hoo-hoo! Jeez.

Man's got nudges already!

You what?

Oh, yeah. No need to thank me.

Why? What have you done?

Just set you up on a dating app.

Yeah, you can thank me later, bro.

Oh, you...

..idiot!

Oh, he has and all.

Hi, it's Gav, you know what to do.

Yeah, it's starting.

Are you on your way?

Can't wait to see you, Gav.

You ready?

Shouldn't you be on stage already?

Where's my mic?

I think it's on the table. Was I asking you?

Come on,

let's give it a rest you two, eh?

All right, it's showtime!

Why didn't you want me there?

Got to be a reason.

You wanted Johnny all to yourself, or something?

Do you fancy him?

No. No way!

Cheers.

I was just trying to help, I knew you liked Gav and...

Why are you dragging him into this?

I thought you said it was cos she was busy with her mum?

It was, but...

I thought you were helping me.

Helping you what?

You know what? I don't care.

I can explain. Get out!

What did you mean?

She was helping you?

Evershed's going ballistic.

CHANTS: Why are we waiting?

Where's Fizza?

Spill, or I will shove that guitar...

Suppose...

..suppose I kind of asked her for information.

Are you an actual creep?

Just chill out for a second. Chill out?

No!

Look, I just wanted to get it right.

OK?

When I asked you out...

I don't care if I never see her again.

Or you!

You're both disgusting.

Ackley, are you ready?

CHEERING

Was this your idea?

Get me all alone.

I'd rather be on stage.

So, what did Kayla tell you?

Nowt I couldn't work out for myself.

You think you know me.

You're not that complicated.

I knew you were trouble.

First time I saw you, I weren't going to bother.

But then you kissed me.

I think you'll find it were the other way around.

Someone let me out of here!

Thank you, ladies.

We're not finished!

Yeah, you are.

Now, that was...

APPLAUSE

..special.

Right.

Now for the main star of our show.

No, it's not me.

It's the one, the only, Miss Mandy Carter!

APPLAUSE

Here she comes.

A vision in viscose and polyester.

LAUGHTER

Why don't you let us know a little bit about yourself?

What do you like to do in your spare time? Do you have any hobbies?

Erm...

..well, I quite like reading

and giving you F's in your Shakespeare assignments.

I tell you what.

This here, today, this is exactly why I love this school!

You guys, eh?

You get up and you give it your all,

and I am proud of all of you.

Why are you leaving us, then?

Because you don't need me any more.

Can't wait to get away from us, more like. No, no. That's...

..well, yeah, maybe you.

No, the reason I am going is that...

..I have been offered a new challenge.

To fight for girls to be educated.

Yeah.

It's thousands of miles away, so, maybe I am mad,

but it gives me that same feeling that I got when I first came here.

I'm scared and I'm excited,

and I'm not even sure that I can actually do it.

But, like you, I'm going to give it everything I've got.

When I walk through the doors at my new school,

I'm going to be taking some Ackley spirit with me.

Thank you. Right.

Now for our final act tonight.

The musical maestro, Ackley Bridge's very own Johnny and Kayla.

Come on Kayla, don't be shy.

Sorry.

Music. Now!

PHONE LINE RINGING

VOICEMAIL: Hi, it's Gav...

Gav still not picking up?

I've known her for years.

We tell each other everything.

Everybody's got secrets.

Not us.

Not till now.

I just don't understand why she'd do it.

I don't know, it's not my problem now.

We're finished.

Always got to turn everything into a fight, haven't you?

You see, you feel guilty about your mum,

but it's easier to row than to make it up.

And now your best mate's made a mistake, you push her away too.

You're even upset that Gav's stood you up,

but you pretend like you don't care.

And he's an idiot, yeah?

You deserve better.

You act all tough,

but that ain't you.

Not the real you.

What about you?

You're a bigger screw-up than I am.

So...

..you admit it, then?

You say you don't like gorgers,

but...

..can't keep away from us, can you?

Don't know who you are.

What are you so scared of?

I'm not scared of nothing.

I do what I want when I want.

That right?

If I fancy someone,

like you clearly fancy me,

I tell them to their face.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

I'm going to miss this view.

You don't want to take Rashid's mother with you to Nepal, do you?

Why she even coming here today?

Just take her.

Please. Please.

Come on.

You're more than a match for that woman.

Where's your fighting spirit, eh?

I know, who does she think she is,

looking down her nose at me like that?

What, Carol?

She's always been like that, hasn't she? Carol.

I don't know whose Carol,

but Rashid, I am going to say,

mother or no mother, I am putting my...

Ah.

I'm going to leave you to it.

We were having a very private conversation.

Rashid could get work anywhere in the world with his brain.

And yet, here he is,

shacked up with a village girl and her delinquent family.

That is a very mean thing that you just say to me.

I know Rashid...

I know him better than you!

And it won't be long before he sees things my way

and gets the hell out of here.
