Today you'll vote for your house captains. Lewis, you're Kingfisher
You can't have an abortion just because Tom wants you to.
You're doing this behind his back.
It's hell on earth in here. I don't know if I can call much longer.
Please come and see me.
Ahmet, fancy earning yourself some dosh? Lewis, if you could say deux cerveaux,
that way Haydock won't tell the copies.
What's up?
Jimmy, he's glued my locks.
Hey, girl!
Need a lift? You swine!
Mum! It was him! Give me the keys.
I'll be sending you a bill for fixing my car and a copy to the solicitor. I'm
not giving you anything until you let me see my daughter.
Screw you!
You're not allowed to beat the kingfishers at homework.
Eh? Can I offer you a lift anywhere?
You going my way?
Where's the club?
Nika's read your diary.
She knows about you and Mr Clarkson.
What's wrong? Our baby isn't alive.
dead hard, like, you know, I mean, essays.
I'd rather do spelling and stuff.
I'm gonna get a GCSE.
Maybe next time you get a couple of rapture.
You alright?
You're brilliant seeing him off his face.
I don't do stuff.
You know, drugs and that.
I don't do drugs and that. What you're talking about, everyone loves a buzz,
even you.
You're like one of them things to lose up your nose.
Come on.
You're doing my nothing, Specker.
Can't you go any faster?
It's me who's going to get it if we find out.
Stop. Just how far are you helping people that aren't as sweaty as you?
So shut it and get on.
Best week of attendance since having it at Waterloo Road.
Must be doing something, right?
At least in the French grades.
Steph Haydock's making real progress.
Who knows?
We might even have a couple of passes.
Steady on, Andrew.
We'll see.
I've got to hand it to you, though.
I had my doubts, as you know, but this house system thing, I think it's
working.
Will you let me carry it for you?
Give it to me.
I'm fine, honestly.
Well, where's your top?
Are you feeling up to thin, everyone?
I think so, yeah.
I've asked Daisy to let everyone know.
She'll be so relieved to see you back at school.
She was really worried when I told her what happened.
No, she's a good friend.
We're both lucky to have her.
Hey.
What?
Any advance to report on your secret romance?
Don't think you get in any details, Brantley, but put it like this.
The stunning improvements in my coursework are hardly likely to go
Don't think Jack will be thrilled with yours, though.
If only all I had to teach was menus, which seems to comprise the entire
curriculum these days. I mean, who can't translate le roast beef?
Le sandwich, eh?
Le Big Mac.
Well, you... Try teaching the ploo perfect to kids who can't even speak
own language.
Well, that I do grant you is a fair point either way. Yeah, well, either
I'm winning, so... Hi,
guys. Hiya.
I've got some photocopies to pick up from this tower.
Oh.
How's it going, Lorna? Oh, fine, thanks.
I've just got to look forward now.
That's the spirit, love. What I always say is every day is a new beginning, so
you go for it.
I can't tell
you, Tom, how sweet he's been for me.
I'm so glad, Mona.
You took such a big risk, I feel terrible, I'll let you. Oh, don't, Izzy.
mean, I might have had a miscarriage anyway, who knows?
If we do get lucky with another baby, then Tom's really going to love it, and
that's what matters.
Yeah.
Tom won't ever need to know any different, will he?
Well, he won't from me, of course he won't. Me neither.
I'll never lie to him about anything again.
My love.
What now?
You know, dead fine, what?
You think campaigns have fixed your car lock?
Refusing me access to see me own kid.
Right, you cow.
Yeah.
Mika, it's your dad.
I am going to sort out this mess once and for all.
You just watch.
Hiya. You make sure these get put up around school.
Congratulations, Miss Haydock.
Very impressive results you're achieving with your coursework. Thank you,
Headmaster. I'll be hoping to collect another good batch for you today.
Well, all the better for saving the school. The LEA is definitely turning
heat off. Well, let's hope we'll soon be doing the same, eh?
Andrew, I'm sorry about last week.
I was an idiot.
It's good to be given a second chance.
And I'm lucky that Lorna's done the same on the home front.
Good.
Excellent. Just have to keep it up, won't we?
No worries.
Well done, you.
Cheers. Thank you, Tom.
Appreciate your support.
Morning, Mr. Chairman.
Morning, Miss Gamble.
Make sure that your design has big, bold outlines with positive and negative
spaces so that you can cut out your stencil.
Tiny details, thin lines just won't work, okay?
Then, once everybody in your group has worked out a design, we'll pick the best
one for each house and we'll make it into a stencil.
The best design overall will win ten house points, okay?
We'll just let you think of it. It's in our best drawer.
Lewis?
Yes?
Did you do this homework yourself?
Yeah, miss. Took me two hours.
What's gone wrong, then?
You what?
Well, why haven't you matched any of your adjectives to their nouns?
Eh? And what's happened to your spelling?
Pomme de terre.
P -O -M -D -E -T -E -A -R.
I bet you spelt your name right.
Let's see.
She's saying it's crap.
Well, it's not up to your usual standards.
It better be.
Hey, tais -toi, you.
Nobody in this class is crap, especially not Lewis here. You see, Lewis, I'm
even wearing your house colours today because overall I'm very pleased with
marks you're achieving. Now sit down.
What we have to do is to keep up those high standards every day and every way.
Right, Ahmed, stand up.
Correct spelling of pomme de terre, please.
P -O -M -M -E
-D -E -T -E
-R -R -E.
Well there, all excellent.
And ask one of those subjects where you can't easily say that one piece of work
is better than another. Oh, go on, miss.
We don't ask to win top, Mac.
I know, Janice. I know the system works.
So I am going to pick one winner.
And that is the one that was made with the best group collaboration.
And that one is... The Robins.
In your French, eh?
Don't crack me about, man. I don't know what you mean.
I'm paying you to get an A's.
Not C's. I'm sorry, Louise.
Sorry? I'll meet you, sir.
And I forgot to take my friend to dictionary home last night.
I'll do it right next time, yeah? I paid you to get it right this time.
Good.
That nut's holding over, Dad.
I am.
Janice. What?
I'm not sure if I want to do this anymore.
Who cares what you think?
It can't be.
Don't all rush at once.
How dare you disturb my coffee?
Sir, can I see my mum?
Is it an emergency?
Yeah.
Miss Red, has your daughter collected an emergency?
What is it, Mika? I'm late for my class.
Mum, I think Dad's on the roof.
What? Just through the bunny.
What is it with these idiots? Think hanging off cranes and dressing up as
-Man proves they're fit to be parents.
Or the opposite, if you ask me.
I'm so sorry, Jack. I can't believe how much trouble we've caused this school.
Yeah, well, we can't cope with another disaster. You'd better talk him down and
quit.
Oh, you've really done it this time, Jimmy.
Just pack your things and go before the headmaster calls the police.
Oh, for God's sake.
think you're going to achieve?
Your picture in the paper so everyone can see how stupid you are?
You're just showing your kids up. If you really wanted to do right by them,
you'd go and get a proper job instead of messing with mine.
Just go, Jimmy.
You just forfeited your right.
Hey!
Get off!
Stop it. That's enough.
Anywhere I go, I'm going to jump.
Get in. And I want it in right in his head.
Look, he's just trying to get his own back. Make out I'm a witch because I've
been so unfair to him.
Well, he can't do it on my school roof, is he?
We've got the spotlight on us enough already, and I definitely do not want
another visit from the cops.
It's not just the police.
We'll need the fire brigade and ambulance if you're threatening to jump.
He won't jump. He'll risk his own precious life. We've got to think about
risks to our kids here. That's exactly what I am thinking of. If we get the
involved, then the bloody press gets wind.
Do you really think the LEA are going to tolerate another front -page drama?
Well, they can't blame us for it. Can't they?
What, member of staff in custody battle? Well, I won't sign my kids over to
them, Jack, so please don't ask me to. I'm not asking you to.
We're just discussing our options, that's all.
I could give it a shot if you like.
Hi. Mr Granger, isn't it?
I'm Andrew Trenneman, deputy headteacher. Just stop there, all right?
I'd like to be in my class teaching my pupils, two of whom are your daughters.
Yeah. Well, get there, Mum, to agree me accessing writing, and I'll be off as
well, OK?
She's not going to agree to anything, Mr Granger.
Certainly not under duress.
Dures? I'm the one that's under duress, not being allowed to see my kids. This
isn't going to help.
You've got any children, have you?
No, but... Well, you don't understand a father's grief, having your own flesh
and blood taken away from you. Look, Mr. Granger, my responsibility is to ensure
the survival of Waterloo Road. I'm asking you, please, if you want to stage
form of protest, do it elsewhere, or your daughters could very soon lose
school. Yeah.
Well, you can blame their selfish mother if that happens.
I'm taking this action so they don't lose their dad.
Well? He's a waste of time.
We could might as well have him. Chuck him off his door.
Let's get him back inside.
Hey, back inside!
Fuck it!
No, I'm flaming down.
What, an idiot?
I'm just trying to show my girls what they mean to me.
You're showing us up. Get down.
He's trying to make me do it. I wish for death.
Of course.
He never listens to that.
It's all on the mother box.
Right, everyone inside now.
You've got ten seconds.
Anyone left outside will lose their house voice.
Go, Rabbit.
Go, Rabbit. Go, Rabbit.
I'm absolutely mortified.
Yeah, well, the kids are going to be impossible next period.
Just kill him.
I don't know what he thinks he's playing at. He's trying to embarrass me, that's
what. I mean, up there making demands, it's laughable.
You used to see them once, maybe twice a month for all of five minutes.
There's nothing I can say to make you feel better, is there?
I just can't bear my next laugh. I can just hear the comments.
Well, I'm free. I can take it for you if you like.
No, I didn't mean that.
Well, let him.
You're a star.
Have another cup of tea.
I'll send the farmer after him, eh?
Sorry?
Get your dad off the roof. Ron Rabbit, Ron Rabbit. I know you don't like him,
but I don't want him off the roof.
It's just your mum's a bit upset, that's all.
Yeah, I mean, you know why that is, don't you?
Everyone's got it in for my dad, but it's not him to blame.
Well, no one forced him onto the roof, did they?
Sir, there's no point in pretending.
I know it's true.
You know what's true?
About you and my mum.
I think you're going to have to explain yourself. What do you mean, me and your
mum?
I don't know. Just get the feeling something's going on.
Well, there's precisely nothing going on, all right.
But Mrs Clarkson knows there is.
Eh? Because her mum had a secret meeting.
What meeting?
Last week after school.
The day Zoe had a baby.
Mum wouldn't even tell us where she was meeting her. It was that secret.
Maybe you'd better ask Mrs Clarkson what she knows.
Izzy?
Last week, did you go with Lorna for a check -up?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did.
So, er, I don't get this.
Why, when I told you she'd lost the baby, did you pretend you didn't know
it?
I just thought that I... What's going on, Izzy?
Izzy? Look, Tom, I've got enough going on out there.
You're going to have to speak to Lorna.
I don't see any way of getting him down, other than getting the police.
Well, there's the weather.
Where's the bloody rain when you need it, eh? We've got everybody moving to
lunch in half an hour. Do we know what he's got with him in terms of food or
whatever? He's got a bloody primer stove up there.
But he can't be planning on sleeping in that bunny suit. We don't know what he's
planning, do we? Look, honestly, I strongly recommend that we call... Kim,
organise a lunchtime disco or something.
A disco?
Well, something to keep the kids happy. You know, loud ads. Let's drown him out,
eh?
Yes, Headmaster.
Staff announcement.
All pupils to be lined up to go to lunch via the back door.
After lunch, they'll be escorted to the assembly hall. No -one to leave the
building without my permission, OK?
Rightio. You've no objection if I head off to collect your dry cleaning,
Just don't talk to any bunnies, all right?
Anyone know a good ring dance?
Yeah, hello, this is Tom Clarkson.
My wife, Lorna Clarkson, she came in for a pregnancy check -up last week.
I'm just wondering if you can bring the details up for me, please.
Yeah, Lorna Clarkson.
No, she definitely did, last week.
A pregnancy check -up, yeah.
Thursday.
No, I just... Are you absolutely sure?
She must have got muddled up, that's all.
Yeah, thanks for your time.
Thanks. Bye. Bye.
Why are we not getting a lunch break?
Is it because close dad's on the roof? Yeah, hurry along.
You're going to listen to me until you're sick of the sound of my voice.
Kids need dads.
Kids need dads.
Bish, me and me mates would rather play football than go inside.
Won't we, Amit?
Do you think the headmaster sent that order round to have you question it?
Quickly.
I'm jealous because we're smashing kingfishers in maths. We've got four A's
our coursework. Yeah, well, you're doing crap, you friend. Excuse me. Will you
two stop with the competitive stuff right now? But that was what it was all
about, trying to win.
No, the houses are there to help you.
And you and all the rest of the pupils in the school learn what it means to be
part of a team.
What it means to be the leader of the team. And you're doing really well so
so don't go and spoil it by going over the top, yeah?
Come on, stick through.
hopelessly trying to think about me.
I've got a surprise for you, Ahmed.
You'll meet me after school.
What surprise?
Instead of those rats I promised, I'll make you a space cake instead.
I don't want it. After I've gone through all this trouble.
You'll eat it and you'll say thank you.
Oi! What do you think, Ahmed?
And what's it to you?
Nothing.
Just want a word with you later, Ahmed.
I need to ask you something.
I don't understand what's going on, Mona.
Why didn't you tell me that Izzy was with you when you had your miscarriage?
Why did she pretend to me that she didn't know anything about it?
She went with you when you had your check -up, didn't she?
Why, what she said to you?
Did you go for a check -up, Lorna?
Of course I did.
Tell me the truth.
Because you didn't go to the surgery, they've just told me.
So what else don't I know?
Where were you when you lost the baby?
Tom, not now. What, are you covering up?
If it was with you when you lost the baby, when it happened...
then why would she pretend it was all a great shock to her?
Why wouldn't you want to tell me that?
Because I asked her to.
What?
Because I didn't want you to know.
I had an abortion, Tom.
Tom, please say something.
You aborted our baby.
I had to. You didn't want it.
Oh, my God, Lorna.
It was the wrong time. It was going to break us up.
And as you knew about this, she knew what you were doing. She knew you were
having an abortion.
She tried to talk me out of it. Why did you talk to me about it? Because I
didn't want to burden you with it. It was my decision. It was my baby too.
I did it for us.
You made me feel it was impossible to have it.
You lied to me again.
Tom, please, can't you see why?
I feel like an idiot, to be honest.
Although it's not hard to see where they get the idea.
Oh, don't go there.
Oh.
You believe there's such a thing as youth culture?
Of course.
Excuse me.
No, at least we tried.
I mean, you can't say they're not loyal to their houses, can you?
What? What?
I've got another job to do, yeah?
Janine, maybe cheating isn't the best way to beat the Kingfishers. You know
I mean?
Maybe you'd get a better buzz when you're fair and square.
Don't start, Ahmed.
Now that you're taking 50p a jotter off me, I'm writing crap.
I'll give it your back.
I don't want it back. I just want the right answers.
And then, if you're worried Louis Seddon's going to find out, don't. He's
thick as Wayne Mooney.
Go on.
I needed the money.
My dad's lost his job.
We've got nothing to eat. I'll give you this to eat if you don't shut it with
your lies.
It can work for anybody he wants.
It ain't working for anybody no more. Because he's got a swing for this.
So you, meet me behind the bike sheds after school.
Because I'll be waiting.
Jack was right.
ready for the responsibility.
They don't know how to be responsible. Their lives are chaotic.
We need children to think for themselves, but they just need a decent
values. The problem is they don't have your values.
Well, obviously I need to be tougher on myself.
Oh, Andrew, will you stop beating yourself up about it? There's things
worked. I mean, it's definitely improved behaviour -wise.
When we got half the schools sprayed with graffiti, I didn't think so.
But it's not a reason to give up on the whole system.
I don't need to take things more slowly, that's all.
Miss.
I want to see you in my room right now.
Janice, come with me.
Lewis.
Look, you've made your point. How long are you going to stay up there?
As long as it takes.
You're looking like a complete prat.
No one gives a damn.
Yeah, because you've kept all the kids indoors.
No, because every journalist in the city is at another incident.
So you'll get no publicity.
Soon as night falls, the police will come in and move you down.
Izzy Redpath is an unfit mother. She drinks too much.
And she's up to her eyes in debt.
Pack it in, Pally.
You've had your say.
You're trespassing.
Do me.
Nobody's listening to you, so get stopped.
Estelle. Oh, I'm sorry, headmaster. I just couldn't refrain myself.
Just give me a break, please, eh?
I've got school to run here. It's not easy with a muppet like you on the roof.
If you cared about this school like you say you do, you'd get it there to make
sure that I get access to my kids.
Else I'll get my own publicity.
I've got my own camera right here.
I'll send pictures straight to the news desk.
Say cheese!
Tell us you've got one last chance, or else!
Was Lewis who'd done it first?
Did he like his pyramid for his own work?
And you followed, lemming -like?
No. Just copied him.
Do you know what really annoys me, Janice, is that I was the one that
with Mr Treneman so that you could elect your own captains.
And then you just let me down badly.
If I had been pleased, we were all getting good marks.
Pleased we've got a cheat and a liar as captain of one of our houses.
I'm not a liar.
Don't answer back.
And you're a bully.
Why, Janice?
Hey, what's wrong with fair and free competition?
It was Lewis that was cheating.
Can't be a cheat if you cheat someone that's cheating. Are you incapable of
getting good marks on your own?
Yeah. And why's that?
My muppet.
Sorry?
Thick. Rubbish everything.
This was your chance to prove that you were a good leader, Janine.
I'm with him.
Okay, you will go to the caretakers and ask for a bucket and scrubbing brush and
take off every stencil you see.
People should clean their own graffiti.
Or you will spend yet another session in the cooler.
Sir, I'll clean them out.
I hope this will teach you.
Cheats never prosper.
It's us that's been cheated on.
Rimmer said he'd give us money out of his own pocket, he said. I think he was
joking, Lewis. Joking?
So we were in it for nothing?
We got tricked into it. Don't be ridiculous. We're flaming dead.
You speak to me like that again and you won't be at this school much longer.
Look, it's clean up or cooler.
Lois, it's up to you. And there's going to be new captains in charge of the
Canaries and the Kingfishers. I don't know what
we can boast in the way of coursework now.
Izzy, you're going to have to think of something very clever. Otherwise, I've
got a call in the cops. Just let me talk to him. I know I'll get him down.
Jack!
My latest coursework results. I think you'll be very pleased.
Have you not heard the news?
Two of the house captains have been organising a mass cheat -in.
You are?
Lewis Seddon and Janice Bryant.
I'm calling a crisis meeting after school.
All the coursework from their house is probably as good as useless.
Just hear me out, Mika.
We all need to help get your dad off the roof because it's not safe and he could
fall and hurt himself.
Well, just say he'll agree with what he wants, then. Well, that's what we've got
to sort out with him.
He needs to be clear exactly when it is that he'd want to see you and if, for
instance, he would want to take you away on holiday for maybe a couple of weeks
of the year. And then I would have to see if that was all right with you.
Well, it's not all right with me.
See what I mean?
He can't just make me agree to let him see you as and when he wants, can he?
won't let him see us at all. I will, Mika.
If he agrees to take proper care of you, then I would let him have you every
other weekend.
No way.
Well, you can stay with Mum then, because I think that would be brilliant.
just go up there and talk about it sensibly, and we'll try and work
out.
Yeah?
Come on.
Heard of that little grass, I could tell.
She'll be in getting done for what he's done to me.
Just forget about it, Louis.
Rules are rubbish, innit?
My own rules, innit? No one grasses me up and gets away with it. If you won't
get away with it, tell him he'll see to that.
And I'll be paying him back and all.
Big time.
Jimmy? Are you listening?
What? I've got Miss Redpath and your daughters here.
They want to talk to you. Great, send them on up. No, you come down here.
Are you joking me? No way.
Do you want to risk your daughter's lives as well as your own?
Clambering up here in the sudden rain?
Look, just come down here and talk to them, will you?
So you girls managed to talk your mum around to pay some sense, then?
Listen, Jimmy, let's just get this done quickly.
I want you to tell the girls how often you want them at yours, how many
weekends, how many weeks' holidays, and I want you to promise me that you'd look
after them.
Well, whoa, we don't have to set a schedule, do we? Just as long as you let
see them when I want.
You have to tell them what that means.
Just say, every other weekend and two weeks' holiday, Dad, that's what I want.
Yeah, that'd be great, love, but, you know, we've got to see how things pan
You know, I can't just promise.
Why not?
Because I could be in the studio, I could be on the road doing a gig. Well,
obviously I have to fit looking after the girls in and around my work, Jimmy,
but I thought you'd want to share.
You know, at least at weekends.
You do, don't you, Dad?
All this is about is me getting you to accept that I've got rights. You can
about details later.
You don't have rights without responsibilities, and I think the girls
entitled to know what I'm agreeing to here.
So you're still not listening to me then, are you? No, Dad. She's just
up what she's guilty of, and I can prove it.
You photographed Mum's diary? Listen, Mika.
I didn't want to tell you this, but the reason I've stopped your dad saying it
is because he stopped all his checks. I didn't want you to think that he didn't
care, but the truth is, I don't think he does. Why should I pay for what I don't
get? Because you owe it to them.
What's Mum saying, Dad?
That you don't pay her for having us?
Of course he pays her for us.
He hasn't paid anything since he moved out.
It's the truth, Mika. Ask him.
Is that true?
Dad.
Dad!
Listen, sweetheart, you don't understand.
Why don't you just go back up there and jump?
Just go before you make it worse for her.
And don't think about going back up there. It's locked.
Don't think bad of me.
I showed you how much she meant to me up on the roof, didn't I?
You should have paid Mum what you're supposed to.
I will sort something out with her, yeah?
Look, I promise.
Whatever.
Well, you won that one.
Obviously, I take full responsibility for my own disaster.
Most of the graffiti's been removed.
Kids, eh?
They turn everything on its head, don't they?
You give them the system and their first instinct to cheat it. I hadn't expected
them to be so... tribal.
Well, that's what happens when you've got nothing.
Well, you've got nothing to give.
Well, we're not abandoning it over a few teething problems. I think it's
working. I wouldn't say that they were teething problems. Andrew, don't wimp
on me.
I told you how damned hard this job was when I interviewed you. Do you really
think we're going to let a couple of morons hijack it for us?
Leave him. Let the little grass go and crack himself.
Is he?
Lorna, I think Tom knows something.
I've told him.
And? He's devastated, just like you said he would be.
You've just got to go home and talk to him about it. Home?
What's that?
Don't be silly.
Look, I can't deny I think you made a big mistake, but Tom will forgive you.
I don't know if I can forgive myself.
I have been deceitful. In fact, I've been a right bloody idiot. You were
desperate. It makes us do stupid things I should know.
You'd never have done what I did, Izzy.
You take the car.
I'll get the bus.
Right.
I'll see you at home.
Right, I'll come back here for you, and then we'll go out for tea.
Burger?
If that's what you want.
Suppose I'll train your taste buds one of these days.
Can't afford to.
Right, well, as long as you know that you both mean the world to me. Got to
What are you doing?
I'm going to visit Dante.
Hey.
Dante? I'll be back before long.
You're mad.
Got to see him. Promise you won't say anything.
All right.
Give us a minute.
You got money for the bus?
That lad's shot each, John. You jump in. I want the rest of your interns to head
the ball into the net, jumping as high as you can.
Tom. I hope this is the last conversation we have.
I couldn't tell you. It wasn't my secret to tell.
There are some things you don't keep secret, is there? Like when someone's
baby's getting murdered.
It's not a baby.
It is. Sorry, was to me.
I thought it might have meant something big to you too, your best friend
expecting a baby.
Couldn't have been more wrong.
All right, John, you come out. Joe.
Hi, all.
Hi.
You all right?
Come.
How's Waterloo Road?
What do you think?
It goes well.
Yeah, well, it's ten million times better than in here.
I'm going to do it.
There's no way you're staying in here a minute longer.
I'll make a confession.
It was me driving the car.
If I hadn't stolen my dad's limo then... It was down to me that it crashed.
Yeah, but I'm... Dante.
There's no other way.
The teacher.
If there's one argument against this GCSE coursework nonsense, then surely
is it.
How could any teacher think this was the work of the same child?
They're paid off in the teacher equivalent of Denise and Lewis, and you
So if you're lucky enough to get a teacher who cheats, you've a built -in
advantage.
So they're all down on the same day with the same exam. That's equality.
No, that's memory work.
And when did we decide that memory work was something to be despised?
Late 70s, early 80s, and who decided? Andrew, what seems to hack you off is
working -class kids do well at coursework. Hang on a second. Okay,
don't we have more important things to worry about here?
Like how we sort out this mess.
Bloody hell!
Oh!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God! You see to it, Mum.
Yeah, you look it. There's no glass in it.
Great. Need to see a doctor, though.
Honestly, I'll be fine.
I'm taking you to casualty.
No arguments. I'm not dizzy.
I'm just bloody angry. Andrew, you don't know what you are. You just had a blow
to the head. You could wake up dead. Well, fine.
But you don't have to mother me.
Call a cab.
Look, I'm not being ungrateful, Kim.
I'm sure you've got other plans for tonight.
A cabinet somewhere.
Not a bloody sign of him.
You all right, Patrick?
I'm going to take him to the hospital.
You know who did this, don't you?
Of course, yeah. Louis Seddon.
Try and prove it.
With no witnesses.
His parents would have us up in court like that for false accusation.
And they wonder why teachers are leaving the profession.
Look, why don't you get off to hospital and I'll sort this lot out.
It's true, isn't it?
I can't believe what I've done to you.
It was me that caused the accident.
I'll let you take all the blame.
Babes. Babes, come on.
We're both to blame and that's the truth.
But this way, neither of us have to spend years locked in a way that I don't
like this.
I'm sure you're right about what happened.
I promise, Chloe.
If we both say we've done it, we both get off.
Because we're cancelling each other out, that's what the law says.
I'm going to drop myself and definitely stay in here.
I love you, Dante.
I promise.
I'm going to do this.
As soon as we get out of here, many of you are going to get engaged.
Engaged?
I'm too young, aren't I?
No one's saying we're going to get hit.
That can happen when you're 16.
Why, are you saying you don't want to?
No, I just wasn't expecting it.
Yeah, well, there's a lot of things you're going to get you won't expect.
See you on the outside, yeah?
Okay, maybe you won't wake up dead.
Sir! Sir, what happens if I bash you on the head?
Andrew.
I want to work with you, seven.
The rest of you, up the premises.
Now!
Perhaps you think you put one over on me.
What? I know you threw that brick.
Someone threw a brick at you, sir?
Now, why would somebody do that?
It's not against the rules to have fun, is it? Just get yourself off home,
Lewis, all right? Scram.
It was him that stopped me, miss.
I thought you were going to hit him, then.
I almost bloody well did.
What's happening to me, Kim?
I have never... In my entire career, even short of hitting him.
I have.
In fact, I fantasised about it, so don't go hard on yourself.
I did exactly what he wanted me to do.
I let him get to me.
Look, Lewis said and will be dealt with.
Okay, so just get yourself in the car.
Just drop me off then. I don't want to keep you from your boyfriend.
Sorry?
Christopher?
He's my brother. He's not my boyfriend.
Oh.
Sorry, I thought... Are you going to show up now?
Bye,
OK, everyone. Mind your own now.
Well done, everyone.
Tom, can you just listen to what I've got to say?
No. It was the most difficult decision I've ever had to make in my life.
Mine was marrying Lorna.
If you remember, I discussed it with you first. You told me to go ahead and do
it. Fine.
Make me out to be the bad one, but the truth's a whole lot different.
Truth?
No one tells me the truth about anything.
Tom, before you married Lorna, you told me you loved me.
Then Lorna tells me she's having your baby, then she says she's having an
abortion.
Think about it.
If I'd have told you that, you might have split up, and then I'd have to live
with the guilt.
You're doing me, Eddie. Yeah?
Well, you and Lorna are doing mine, and so just leave me out of it.
Oh, you made it.
And all the way from the bus stop.
I don't know why you keep going back to him.
Because he's the best.
Dante wants us to get engaged.
Don't be stupid.
You're 14.
Hey, there's no law that says you can't get engaged.
Yep. We want everyone to know that we're a couple.
You said yes to it.
Mum is going to go ape.
Why do you keep getting on her nerves?
Gran never liked Dad, did she?
But he never stopped Mum from being with him, did he? And what if Dante goes to
prison? Well, then I'll wait for him.
Chloe, you're being daft.
It isn't a proper marriage if your husband's in prison.
Not everything's about sex, Mika.
I'm worried our Mum's going to take this, Chloe.
Don't tell her, then.
I didn't expect you to still be here.
Well, lucky for you, I was working late, as usual.
I'm after your coursework.
Oh, coursework, schmorsework.
Heaven preserve us from leaked tables, eh, Jack?
Now, tell me the real reason you're here, because I am prepared to drop my
like that if you're angling for a date.
Is it in there?
Oh, for goodness sake, Jack, why can't it wait till Monday morning? I was just
about to leave.
You're not going to have much of a weekend if you take all that lot home.
We're going to be here all night, aren't we?
Well, to tell you the truth, yes, we are.
I'm not exactly the best filer in the world.
In fact, if you found a family of gerbils living in there, I wouldn't be
surprised.
But if you've got a few hours... ..then maybe we can have a little
late -night snack after.
Just make sure you get them to a cell by Monday morning, all right?
Not a problem.
I feel that bad now I know what went on with Dad. My pain, nothing.
You're saying you would have felt sorry for her?
I just wish she'd have told us.
Wish she couldn't, could she?
She didn't want to hurt us.
Listen, you want to say anything to her about me and Don, do you?
Go on then, girls. Let's go out and have a fantastic night together.
You know when people say sorry and they don't mean it?
Mm -hm.
Well, I really, really do.
Let's go and pig out.
Can we just go home instead?
If that's what you'd rather.
Club?
I think I've found a civilised way for it to... feed so we can both get out of
this marriage and stay friends.
That is if you're not too angry with me.
What do you mean?
No more lies, Tom.
So we've just got to be grown up.
No, don't. I'm fine.
It's the only thing I've ever done that's been any good for us.
See, I thought that if we each take a share of the bills until the house is
and then... Sell the house?
Unless you want to buy me out, of course, which is fine by me.
Will you just have a think and let me know when I get back?
Back from where?
I'm going to my mum's for the weekend.
I'm taking the car, if that's all right.
Don't you think we should talk about this now?
Sorry, sorry, my turn.
Come on.
Ready?
Rubbish. Try it again.
Come on, my turn.
Yes!
Mum?
Did you ever love Dad?
For real?
Of course.
Then why did you never get married?
I just didn't really fancy it.
I'd been given away by my dad.
Disgusting, really, when you think about it.
Maybe one of us will get married.
Not me.
Not till I'm about 50, anyway. Good for you, Mika.
Right.
I've just posted you a check for the car locks.
There's a five -minute free to the girls and all.
Not enough for a different pair of tights and stuff.
OK, Mika, one more chance.
Oh, it was just a bit.
Nearly good. Come on.
I went to see Dante today, Mum.
Chloe, you'd better be joking me.
How many times have I told you to not mix with that criminal?
If he's a criminal, then so am I. Chloe, the criminal is someone who goes out to
do wrong. You just happen to be... No, not if... They don't know what they're
doing because of drinking drugs and things.
I know you were drinking that night, darling, but you weren't driving the
I'm sorry, Mum.
Chloe, what are you talking about?
I'm going to tell him the truth.
It wasn't Dante driving the car that night.
It was me.
You know what's going on. Hey! You ever do?
Wasn't Dante driving the car that night? It was me! And I'm gonna make a
confession to the police!
She's lying.
What do you mean she's lying?
I've changed my mind.
I'm gonna plead guilty.
French silk.
I've got it especially for you.
There comes a point when passive sniping tips over into deliberate obstruction.
And that's something I won't tolerate. Are you threatening me?
