What do we need?

What does DSC stand for?

Trouble. Who's Dale Sken?

Sken, sir.

Lang for a gun.

Check out the hot chick.

I've got a bad day job at Bernie's. What, the beauty salon?

Yeah. What, do you think I'm a new look?

Yeah, if there's anyone who could tell me, it's you, babe.

Afternoon. Hey. Michael.

Daniel's phone.

I gather we have a potential gang problem.

I'd rather go home.

With you.

I'll never forgive you for this. I despise you.

Oi!

It's not over, this.

Vote Trudy for DT for head girl. Vote Diamond.

Vote Maddie.

Hey guys, vote Trudy.

I've got some really great policies, honestly.

Vote who you do.

Do you know what? I don't know if I've got the energy to teach it after last

night. Me, complaining at the time.

Issues? How's the campaign trail?

Do you want something?

Thank you. They're lost.

What was Sian's idea?

How's being a science teacher?

Helium.

I... See you in a bit, Dad.

OK. Good luck.

What more do I have to do?

I've been sorry enough times.

Shall we come round?

Oh, I'm right at this time.

Why the rabbit food?

Just not hungry.

Lauren, just the last.

New Candora catalogue, hot off the press.

Oh, I'm all right, thanks. Got on the sub from work, you know, staff discount.

Yeah, well, that's what I'm thinking, right. If I give you a few testers, take

them in on Saturday, and I will give you a cut of anything that they order.

Well, we only use top of the range to put a sale on. Excuse me, Candora is top

of the range. Trust me, it's not.

Suddenly taking an interest, are we?

These prices.

Well, you're not getting cheaper anywhere else.

I'd like to tell you something, and I never say.

Oh, there's nothing I dare.

That I've never, ever seen.

The most delicate creature, she will be the queen. Hello, my dear.

Thank you. Is it all gimmicks, or do you actually have any process?

Of course.

I had girls in charge of entertainment budget, and do you suppose the best part

is it's cool?

I think they'll be looking for something a little more substantial than that.

Well, it's up to them. And if they vote for me, they are guaranteed to have a

good time.

Go in.

How's it going?

I'm going to wipe the floor with her and bust it. Yeah, of course you are.

You've got brains and beauty.

Winning combination.

Yeah, what are you doing here?

You're lucky you didn't press charges, you know. We all know why that is, don't

we? Let him go, Finn.

See? Blood is thicker than water.

Don't think you're forgiven.

Because you're not.

But for the intervention of one of our staff, we could have had a fatality last

week.

Honestly, you'd have done the same yourselves.

Well, now's our chance to prove you right.

Let's nip this gang culture in the bud. The police have put more patrols on the

estates, but this school is our responsibility.

But let's all be extra vigilant, please.

If any of you have any concerns, no matter how minor you think they are,

them to me.

What about Tariq Siddiqui? I saw him coming in today.

We're not having him back, are we? I think we should give him a chance.

Just leave Tarek to me, please.

We have over 600 other pupils in danger of gravitating toward the gangs.

Don't we want them to be decent, responsible members of society instead?

Yeah, of course.

Right, well, that's got everything to do with how they present themselves, how

they speak and behave.

It's basic etiquette. So let's get these kids speaking properly, for starters.

Street slang's for the streets.

If it's not in the Oxford English Dictionary, it has no place in this

Now this is a list of ten common examples of street slang banned from now

Blood. Rap.

Thick. And they call me a pedant. Well, I'm happy to take that crown from you,

Grantley, because this initiative will work. Let's stamp out gang culture in

of its forms.

Makes sense to me.

Good. And if any of you have any other ideas about how to tackle the problem,

I'd like to hear them. Thank you. And can I just remind everyone that it's

boy and head girl elections today, so please encourage everyone to vote.

Yes.

For Maddy.

What? You, cosmetics.

Why don't you come and see me at lunchtime? I'll give you something with

bags under your eyes.

You do look like you've been burning the candle at both ends.

Oh, I wish.

Rosie's moved in. She's got me waiting on her hand and foot.

Last night she demanded a fried egg and marmite sandwich.

Wow. At midnight.

Oh, God.

She's still got a while to go, hasn't she? Yeah, another seven weeks.

Can't imagine getting any more sleep when the screaming bundle of joy

either. Cheer up.

It'll be worth it in the end, mate.

You can't touch.

You can't touch.

You can't touch.

You can't touch.

You can't touch. You can't touch. You can't touch.

You can't touch.

You can't touch.

At least at school he's got a support system.

You know, we could monitor the gang pressure.

We should be helping him.

You've really given this some thought.

Yeah, I've had a lot of time on me hands for doing this. Well, it's only much

better to fail.

Some schools have gang liaison officers.

We just don't have the staff budget for that.

Yeah, but what if there was a teacher that was already here, you know, someone

who the kids trusted?

Are you volunteering?

Look... I'll keep across your literacy drive.

I can organise regular visits from the police and community leaders.

Please, Mr Byrne, if you'd only give Tarek a chance, give it to me.

I think I can get through to him.

All right, you're appointed, but Tarek reports to you morning, break, lunchtime

and after school.

Roger that.

Thanks, Daniel.

Don't you cherish me?

Come on.

Keep your chin up.

They're all bad.

He wants to exclude me, doesn't he?

He does, yeah.

I managed to talk him out of it.

Really? Mason's not coming back. You've got to treat this as a fresh start.

I never wanted to get involved with him in the first place.

You're going to have to prove that to everyone.

Show them you're a responsible, reliable individual.

They've already made me prefect.

That didn't exactly work out, did it?

How about a running for head boy?

Me? What better way to show you're serious than standing at hustings, eh?

Let them hear what you're all about.

No one's going to vote for me.

Maybe not the Tarik who's been swaggering around the place.

What about the Tarik who protects his sisters, eh?

A family man.

You've got to show me care inside.

I don't know how to.

Well, you listen to what they want.

We'll come up with solutions to the problems if you put your mind to it.

It'll wash off.

You look better, Rad. It's only a bit of ink.

Never used to mind getting your hands dirty.

My ambition is to study hotel management at uni.

At least I know what I want to do. So do I. PE teacher.

You know, something the electorate can relate to.

Loudly imaginative, is it? Following Daddy's footsteps.

Well, it's better than being a beauty therapist.

I mean, really. Who wants to spend the rest of their life scraping corn off old

Biddy's feet?

Well, actually, I'm going to be a model.

Yeah, right.

Well, for your information, I've been spotted by an agent.

Dream on. Straight up. Look.

She came in the salon.

They've got auditions today.

And you've got one? Yeah. I said, I'm just what they're looking for. Well,

only an audition.

And you're advocating my fire.

Watch it, brah.

Soz, man.

Oi, you two, stop that.

Gang shakes are banned, remember?

Our new code of conduct.

Sorry, sir, forgot.

I only told you ten minutes ago.

Yeah, well, sir, it's our new thing now. Bet, innit? Look, talking like that

isn't acceptable.

Cooler, now. What?

Now, Denzel.

And who told you not to stop, eh?

Oi.

No. Huh?

The audition?

I wasn't spotted at all in the audition.

I just said that to shut Maddie up.

So?

She's a good girl for you, pretty.

And you're gay.

You don't mean I don't know a good -looking girl when I see one?

I'm only model material, am I?

I'll never know unless you go for it.

Morning, everyone.

Please take out your notes on exothermic reactions from last time, please. We'll

be doing a contrasting experiment today.

And while you're doing that, I will be handing out a list of words that are now

banned in school.

Is coursework on there?

Might try, but no.

This is all part of Mr Burns' new initiative to turn out civilised beings.

What is she banging on about now?

And thank you, Kyle, for being the first to transgress.

Huh? Shut it, Sharky. Kyle, I don't want to give you detention.

Don't know what I did wrong, miss.

You mean you don't know what you did wrong? Okay, seriously.

I don't know.

That any better?

Banging, in the context you intended, is a slang use of the word.

Yeah. What?

You've been for this.

Thank you, Mr Stack.

Cooler. You had your chance.

Miss, this is pathetic. It's the way people talk. We're trying to change that

the way people should be talking.

It's all about communication.

Something we could all improve on.

Myself included.

It's infringing out of all the best. This is for your own good.

If you can't behave or speak properly, then you're just going to waste all the

opportunities that life has to give you.

I don't think this place presents us with a lot of opportunities, miss.

Well then, it's even more reason to take pride in yourselves and make the most

of those you have got.

This boy's an 80s.

That's going to kill me.

That's enough.

That's enough.

Pass these round, please.

Well, you all know why we're here.

Because we want to protect the school from gangs.

Sir, you know nothing on gangs.

And all those red shoelaces symbolise the Dale Skeng crew.

And? Well, the DSC threatened Finn Sharkey with a knife.

Three of them were convicted of armed robbery last year, and another two of a

series of muggings.

We want to save you from a life of mindless criminality.

So, I want you to think about what the future holds for you, and how our new

initiative on literacy and decent behaviour is going to help.

Now, Kyle... You know what, Mr Chark?

You might be right.

I don't need to answer the time to who I am.

All right, well, great.

Thank you.

Very impressive, Daniel.

I think you might even have reached Kyle Stack.

Is this your idea as well?

Yeah. You sure this is sending out the right message to the other pupils? I

mean, he's just come back from exclusion.

I just wanted to give him the opportunity to prove himself to them.

he's changed.

If he's changed.

That's a joke, right?

No, Mr. Chalk wants him to run.

Reckons he can set an example to others.

Hi, I'm here for the auditions. It's Lauren Andrews.

I did call and told you to give me a card.

And I'll give you at least four discos a term and a school prom at the end of

exams. So, do you want to party?

You know who to vote for.

Maddy Diamond.

Head girl.

First time I've done anything like this.

Dead nervous.

Have you got any tips?

I propose the head girl leads a forum of representatives from each year who will

meet weekly with teachers.

Boring.

It is important that you have someone campaigning for you.

So, you're all happy with this new Kangaroo Court of Justice, are you?

Or this new etiquette initiative that's been slapped on us with no warning?

It's a blatant attack on our freedom of expression.

Don't you want a say in the new school rules? Well, Trudy, Head Girl has no say

in deciding the school rules. You're not doing me out of a job.

My proposed forum will also nominate a school charity and organise fundraising

events, including a charity ball.

Oh, that's one of mine.

Except this is for a good cause.

So what you're saying is you'd rather save the whales than us have a good

Thank you, Alice.

Lauren Andrews, please.

If you vote for me as head boy, I'll get you big screen telly in the hall so we

can watch the games.

And we can also use it for film night, too.

Tariq, I don't think any of this is persuading anyone here that you've

I think we'd rather hear you talk about your opinions on some of the key issues.

Knife crime, for example.

I'm against it, obviously.

You weren't always.

I told you.

I've made some mistakes.

Did you ever stop to consider what it might be like to be on the other end of

that blade?

No.

No, I didn't.

I regret what I've done.

And I promise I'll never hold a knife again.

Sorry, I've not done this before. What do I need to do?

You've seen clothes catalogues, haven't you?

Yeah, of course.

Well, that's what we want. Natural, wholesome, girl next door.

OK.

Now let's try the girl next door, but without a stick up her backside.

Relax, love.

Give me a smile.

Perfect. Thank

you,

Lauren.

How's that, Dave?

I'm afraid you're not for us.

But I'm sorry, but you can see how competitive it is.

Okay.

Next we have a late nomination, Finn Sharkey.

Did you put him up for this?

Have any of you ever heard the phrase, a leopard never changes its spots?

How about crocodile tears?

Thank you, Mr Sharkey. That's enough with the natural world analogies, but

hear some of your policies.

Oh, that is my policy, sir. Keeping this place safe from the likes of him, the

DSC, and any other gang who thinks he can get through them gates.

This is our school.

I'm going to keep it that way.

You're a pretty girl.

Yeah, well, not pretty enough, obviously.

You're not the right look for us, but if you're serious about being a model... I

am. An old colleague.

She's got girls on her list who do laundry catalogues, swimwear, that sort

thing. Yeah, well, I'd be fine doing catalogue work, but...

I've got a birthmark on my back, which means I'm hardly going to sell a bikini,

am I?

Plus, I'm hardly a double -A.

Well, so fix it.

How? Cosmetic surgery.

You wouldn't be the first model to use it. There's plenty of clinics around.

You reckon I'd get through the door? That'd take me seriously.

Well, I'm no expert, but I've heard it can be done.

It's got to be worth the shot, hasn't it?

Yeah.

I guess so.

Well, thanks, Taliesin.

And...

I'll think about maybe getting a boob job as well.

Make sure I'm really confident, give myself the best possible chance.

Well, that's your decision, isn't it?

Good luck, Lauren.

You OK?

Mr Burns got it in for me.

What do you expect with your reputation?

Yeah, well, because thick as stupid election.

Shame.

I didn't think you'd give up that easy.

Yes, I was wrong.

Nice work, mate.

You get my vote.

Mr Chalk said I had to stand, or else I'd get kicked out.

Yeah, and I'm with you.

I've got to play the game.

Get them where we want.

Too right.

Tell them what I hear.

Exactly.

So did you mean all that, though?

About the knife?

Course not.

Good.

Because the word from above is that you've earned your stripes.

All yours?

No, Tyler.

You've seen what happened to Mason.

Can't go down again. You ain't going soft on us, are you? No.

Course not.

Gabose. The game ain't based on sympathy.

You get that?

Go on.

See you later.

Vote Finn, the head boy with nothing to apologise for.

Go on, kids, you know it makes sense.

Vote Finn!

Ah, mate, jump on.

Vote Finn!

So, what are your policies?

Come on, give me a chance. I've only just decided to run.

Despite Tarrick?

He'll make everyone's lives a misery.

I know he's your brother, but... Finn, it's fine.

I've got less of a problem with you than Mr. Burton.

At least you're honest.

The way he ripped Tarrick's presentation apart, that wasn't fair.

Tarrick got off easy.

What? Mr. Burton's new rule is that half the school and the cooler are ready.

That's not fair.

Hey,

how did it go?

Yeah, good.

Nice one, I told you, didn't I?

Just because you've got an agent don't mean you'll get any jobs.

Well, that's where you're wrong. She already lined up a few shoots for me.

Seriously? Yeah, just some, like, catalog clothing stuff.

Then we must celebrate.

Well, worth knowing now, I'm on.

Lozza, you are my ticket to some wicked parties.

Goodbye, Rochdale. Hello, Milan.

Hi, I heard that you do free consultations.

It's for laser treatment and maybe breast enlargement.

OK, when can I come in and discuss it?

Oh, no, I can be there.

All right, thanks. Bye.

Who was that?

Oh, it was just the salon. They want me to work late on time.

You and your two new friends?

Look, I've heard the audition, all right.

But you said they're giving you some work.

And they will.

If I get my birthmark removed and my boobs done.

But you're fine as you are. Well, obviously I'm not.

Come on, Josh, you know how much I want this.

You know I've always thought about getting them done.

I mean, it's not like it's a big deal. Loads of girls get their boobs done

nowadays. Not a big deal? Are you serious?

Josh, I've made my decision, but I could do with some support.

Will you come with me?

I've got a cancellation this afternoon.

Our miracle recovery cream, the perfect remedy for a day at this place. The

glucosamine and yeast extract gently exfoliate to give the skin a perfectly

tone. May I?

Thank you.

Simply apply like so, leave overnight and wash off in the morning.

Wow, really is a miracle if it works on your wrinkly old mush.

And... The perfect partner. Our daily replenishing cream containing hyal...

Hyal... Urinate.

To leave the skin feeling supple and radiant. And if you're buying both

together, I can knock another 5 % off.

Oh, that is long. Setting yourself up in competition against maggots. It's a

free market, Janice.

Thank you. And a very lucrative one.

You said I had to report him at lunch.

Well, consider yourself reported.

How's the campaign trail going?

Crap. You thought Mr Byrne basically told everyone I'm a muppet.

Look, you didn't give up. You made your speech. That's what counts.

You know you can talk to me, don't you?

That's what I'm here for.

I've got this friend and the Dales gang crew have given him something to look

after. You know, to tie him in.

Not entirely legit.

Your friend should take it to the police. What? And get nicked?

With his record?

Get real.

He'd be straight back inside.

They're running an amnesty.

Whatever it is, they'll take it, no questions asked. They say that, but...

Don't worry.

I'll tell him.

Your, er, friend has to do what's right.

Be his own man.

Doesn't need the Dale Skeng crew.

Taking time out with your boyfriend?

Not very dedicated, is it?

Are you sure you want to go through with this?

We've got to stand up for ourselves.

I'll get some more from the art room.

Head girl, what do you say?

Vote truly for head girl.

Are you going to vote for her? I handed out all your equally. Have you got any

more?

Follow me, Sri.

We're going to assert our right to freedom as we speak.

Hi, Maddy.

How's it going?

Fine.

I've thought of a few more policies you could throw into the mix if you wanted

to. I don't need your help, thank you. I'm doing great.

Apparently you are.

Some performance at the Hastings. You're quite the public speaker.

It's simple, really.

You've just got to be honest with people.

I deserve that.

Thanks.

Look, I was thinking of booking a spa day at the weekend.

I don't suppose you fancy coming with me?

You never know, we might be celebrating.

We?

Where do you get off?

Look, if I win this, it has nothing to do with you.

Maddy.

I'm sure this is treatable.

Really? With a course of laser therapy, we'll have you looking as good as new.

Is it that simple?

We treat it a lot worse.

Honestly, it's amazing. I can't tell you how much it's going to change my life.

It's like a miracle.

Have you thought any more about the breast augmentation?

Um, yeah, I'd like to go ahead.

But how many skull size?

Look, Lauren, I should just warn you, it's not as straightforward as the laser

treatment. You are only 18, so...

The surgery can be dangerous because of the chance that you might still be

growing. So how do you do the operation?

Well, the surgeon makes a small incision on the underside of the breast for the

implant to be inserted.

It takes about an hour and a half.

There's really nothing to it. Sounds great.

Have you thought about what shape you'd like?

There's the round or the anatomical, sometimes called the teardrop.

Can I get my boyfriend and ask him what he thinks?

This really isn't my area of expertise.

Well, you don't have to decide now. But if I were you, I'd think carefully about

the anatomical.

It's more of a natural shape. It doesn't look so... Fake.

Enhanced. I want them to look enhanced. That's the whole point.

How much is it going to cost?

I'll get the sales team to price up the options for you.

But it's going to be thousands, right? Well, we offer payment plans with

competitive rates of interest.

Oh, come on, we're out of here.

Will your sales team get back to me today?

I'll make sure that they do.

Thank you.

Where are you off?

Nowhere. That's what you and Charlie were talking about earlier.

The election.

Seemed like you were grassing to me.

I wouldn't.

Honest. You know I wouldn't.

I swear.

Look, I just needed a walk. I've got things on my mind, innit?

Do you think I'm some muppet?

Yo, back up, man. Back up. Do you think I won't do it?

Then back up.

I'll do it, you know. Now, back up.

Your prints are all over that.

So, it's only a knife?

Yeah. Only the night the police are looking for a connection to that robbery

last week at the Bucky's.

Not thinking of quitting the crew, are you?

Don't worry, mate.

We're family, yeah?

And

me,

me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, same again, and...

Come on, let's go home.

How did Lawrence add a twist to Freud's theory?

What's going on?

It helps me see what's right.

All my life now you've given me... What's going on?

They're protesting over something.

Long may it continue.

Peace and quiet for rare and precious.

Good morning to you.

Do you know what this is all about?

I can guess.

When I cry, you heal my pain.

Help me talk to you. Oh, brilliant.

It's the whole school.

Well, it doesn't take a genius to work out who's behind it, does it?

Let's see what Mr Burnham can say about this, shall we?

You're the one that encoded with us the audition.

I didn't know it'd end up like this. It's my body job. And I can see why

want to get rid of the birthmark, but you don't need a boob job.

Oh, so you're the expert now, are you?

Ignore the advice of a top modelling agent because Josh Stevenson's a new

fashionista. It's seriously not worth it.

How can you say that?

You know how much I want to be a model. This is my chance.

I don't know why you can't just be happy for me.

Lauren.

Come here.

I just care, that's all. I'm being a mate.

What are you doing, you idiot?

Go on, son.

Get it away from me. I'm not a dumb dopehead and I'm not friendlier than

either. Don't be like that.

Josh, I'm serious.

That stuff can mess you up.

Save the girl who's messing her body up with pointless surgery.

Oh, it's hardly the same, is it?

Just think, I'll be doing photo shoots on tropical beaches while Maddie's

running a load of sweaty kids around the playing field.

Eh? Well, I'm going to be a model, she's going to be a PE teacher.

You had the last laugh.

I'm impressed.

No, seriously, I am. It takes real leadership qualities to galvanise such

unanimous support.

And this is about our initiative somehow violating your freedom of speech, yes?

It's not just the speech.

It's everything.

It's for the good of the whole school, Trudy. School?

That's a joke.

You're turning this place into a prison. Do what you're told, when you're told,

and how you're told. Finn was nearly stabbed.

You're talking to someone who's been there, who knows how that feels.

These gangs will destroy this school if we let them. We're not all gang members.

We're individuals in our own right. You can't take away our freedom of

expression just because of a few stupid lads. That's not what I'm trying to do

at all.

Then why are you being so draconian about it? Because it's the only way.

Speak and act properly and you have the freedom to express your opinion, your

ideas, your beliefs.

Now, I know this is a new initiative. I don't expect people to support it

immediately. But we have to do something. And now, if we're going to

gangs taking over this whole school.

That's the last thing I want.

Right, well then help me stop that happening.

You've seen Maddie's plays?

Why would I waste my vote on her?

Oh, Cal.

What?

What's going on?

My office.

Now.

Sit down.

How dare you mock a fellow student like that? I want you to apologise to Maddy.

Why? She deserved it.

I'm sick of her strutting around like she's Lady Mock. You humiliated her in

front of everybody.

In my book, that's bullying.

All right.

Fair enough.

What were you doing out of school, anyway?

It's not funny, Josh. I want to know.

We were... Josh.

Well, it's not like we're not going to notice when you've had them done.

Had what done?

She's getting a boob job. Josh!

I think you should leave.

Is this true?

Well, you told us this morning to make the most of our opportunities.

I've got a talent to be a model.

And you think getting a boob job is going to help you?

Well, the agency thinks so.

This is major surgery with serious risks. I'm 18 years old. I can do what I

want. Loads of girls get it done. It's not a big deal.

How are you going to afford this?

I mean, it's not going to be cheap, is it?

Well, I've got a fascinating job at the beauty salon.

I can just pay for it with what I earn there. Lauren, you're an intelligent

girl. Please use your brain.

But what happened to you wanting to set up your own salon?

Look, just think this through, OK?

Thanks for your patience.

Mr. Byrne has explained and convinced me the new initiative should stay.

It might take a while to get used to, but it will protect our school from the

likes of Adele's gang crew.

So this has been a waste of time?

Of course not.

So she got it wrong, yet she still wants you to vote her in as head girl. If

you'll listen to me, I did get it right.

We all did.

Because we all stood up for what we believed in.

And I'd do it again.

Yes, you could get beat again.

I didn't get beat. Far from it.

I persuaded Mr Burns to make himself available one lunchtime a week to hear

we have to say.

Uninterrupted and uncensored.

Ooh, big deal.

I know it might not sound exciting, but regular one -to -one access with the

headmaster is a first for Waterloo Road. And think of it.

Our concerns will be listened to.

Our suggestions considered.

And we won't have to wait ages for a decision.

We have a voice.

Let's use it.

Do you know what?

I think we do have our victory.

Well done, Peter.

Make forward to hearing from everyone.

Okay.

The voting for your new head boy and new head girl is now open.

Results will be announced 15 minutes before the final bell. Thank you very

Yeah.

Um... I had to pull Josh up on his behaviour earlier.

He was acting really quite strangely.

I think you might need to have a word.

All right, all right. OK, well, thank you for the heads up.

OK.

Hey.

What's up?

Maddy's upset.

She knows she's not going to win.

Ah. I think I've just got her hopes up.

No, you encouraged her to be ambitious.

That's a really good thing.

Maybe you're right.

Listen to me, going on. You're the one that's been bending over backwards

to get through it, right?

Yeah, I haven't got very far.

Yeah, but you haven't stopped trying, have you?

You see, most people would have given up on her by now.

I'd never give up on either of them, but... It is hard, not having that

together. Well, I've hardly been the greatest, have I?

I wasn't around for them when they were little. I was training them.

travelling to matches or out with the boys.

I'm still getting it wrong now.

It turned out OK.

But what I'm trying to say is that it's not been easy for me either.

You know, if I could do it again, it'd be different.

No, no.

What?

Oh.

Why don't we?

Why don't we have one of our own?

You're not serious.

It's a stupid idea.

I mean, you wanted a career. You didn't want kids.

No, I'm not saying no.

Really?

It's just come as a bit of a shock, that's all.

But we need to talk it through properly.

Right.

Tonight?

Yeah.

Okay.

Miss, you're right. I'm taking advice.

Sorry?

You know, using my brain, thinking about my future.

Oh, right.

Good. Well done.

Lauren, good luck with it.

You know, make the most of your chances while you have them.

Life can change at the drop of a hat, so you make sure you're in control, OK?

Don't worry, Miss. I will.

Running, please.

Matt! What are you doing here?

If you'd answered your phone, you'd know.

Sorry, we've got a bit of a situation.

Well, so have I.

I've got a flat tyre.

And so you drove here?

Well, I'm already late, aren't I?

For what?

The antenatal yoga.

Right,

guys, this is Miss Matthews, all right? She'll look after you for a bit. Just

behave for her. Hang on, hang on. You can't leave me. I've got to change a

haven't I?

It'll only be a couple of minutes. Just get them settled.

I know I can make some extra money to pay for the surgery. I just need your

help. Do you want more?

Meet me in the change rooms in ten, okay?

What's going on? My free period. You know what I'm talking about. That was

of order with Maddy. It was only a joke. I didn't know she'd hear me. What is

wrong with you?

What?

You know what?

Just think of it.

Empty your pockets now. Why? Empty your pockets.

I'm sorry, Dad.

If I catch you with it again, I'll march you down the police station myself.

Is that clear? Yes.

Now get rid of it.

I won't do it again, I promise.

I'll make sure you don't.

You're grounded.

I'm fine. Who are you?

Sit down.

All of you, just get on with whatever you're supposed to be doing.

Can you keep it down, please?

Miss, are you all right?

Go on.

That is from the week.

Good. I don't know if I'll be able to do this, you know.

Well, how much of that stuff did you smoke?

I'm not asking you to paint people's nails. Just be a lookout.

Oi, you two.

Do you want your friends to get your nails done?

Well, we're men of being clothed. Yeah, but I'll be dead quick. It'll only take

five minutes.

Two for the price of one.

Go on, then. But you've got to show them off to everyone and tell them where to

find me, yeah?

Ooh, you're on.

Sir! Sir!

Who was that?

It's Miss Matthews. Come quick.

What's happening?

Rosie, she's having pain.

Can I tell you?

No, you can't. I just want you home.

Right, everyone out, please. Come on.

Go back the door into it.

Ambulance, please.

It's a dead good idea.

Saves me a trip now, knowing that I can get them done at Goon. It's not just

nails. I'm going to bring in the full work tomorrow.

Make -up, hair extensions, fake tan.

You're going to make it killer.

I like the idea.

What's one on a name?

Nail bar.

I can fit you in if you want, Mags. It's only five, huh? I can't afford it, Pat.

I've not sold a single thing for the new candle in Captain Hook. Yeah, well, I

bet it don't help with Grant, like, setting himself up in competition.

Budging? Pull the other one.

What does that old curmudgeon know about health and beauty, eh?

You're serious, aren't you?

Deep breaths, all right?

Can you help us, please? How far gone is she?

30, 33, 34 weeks.

What's your name, love?

It's Rosie.

Rosie, have you had any problems with your pregnancy so far?

Anything we should be aware of? No, it's all been fine.

What's wrong with her? She's having contractions. She's in labour.

She can't be. It's too early.

Rosie, just stay calm. We're going to take her to the hospital.

Vanity is a metaphor for Thackeray's belief that people are abominably

and selfish.

A view not without its merits.

Yes? Can I speak betrayedly, please?

If you must.

Be quick.

Right. Homework.

I'm going to have to get London to do these.

Lauren.

She's a might look like it.

And when did she do these?

At lunchtime.

And they're still wet.

I didn't want to know.

I never counted.

Look, about earlier, I was out of order. I deserved it.

Any chance I could get my nails done?

Sure.

What's going on?

Well, you told me to think about setting up my own business.

Not during school.

Yeah, she's got a real talent for it.

Well, what about if I do it at lunchtime?

You did say I should set up a salon.

All right, I will run it past Mr Byrne, and if he okays it, you can use my

client's lab, all right?

Bye. Bye.

Or Maddy.

Seriously? Yeah.

And Mrs Diamond said we can set up in the science lab every lunchtime.

We're going to clean up.

Which is a good thing, isn't it? I suppose.

So? The clinic called.

It's going to cost four grand for a boob job. And I worked out that even with

our thing and my Saturday job, it could take me three years to save up. Is it

really worth it?

Especially with the good little business you've got going.

But I wanted to be a model.

Even if you wait, there's no guarantee you'll actually get any work.

Look what you've achieved in an afternoon.

Stick with the business. Who knows where you'll be in three years?

Come on.

You'd better get to the election results.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's not your fault. It's going to be all right, okay?

We need to get to the hospital now.

I've been so selfish. All I've been doing is moaning about it all day.

Come on, don't beat yourself up.

Sir, sir, is my spotty's okay?

Yeah, you get yourself back inside and I'll see you. Oh, Matt!

We need to get going.

Excuse me.

My sister banged the door into Miss Matthews. Is that what caused it? No,

just happens sometimes and we never know the reason.

Tell your sister it's not her fault.

What?

So, the moment you've all been waiting for, the announcement of your new head

boy and head girl.

I'd like to thank the candidates for all of their hard work, and I'd like to

thank you for exercising your right to have a say in the future of this school.

So, without any further ado, here we go.

Your new head girl for the year is Trudy Siddiqui.

New head girl.

I look forward to working with you. I'll show you a bit more of my toes.

And your new head boy.

Finn Sharkey.

Thank you all very much. I'll see you tomorrow.

Listen,

man. You don't need to worry about no poxy election.

They just don't understand us.

Played by our own rules, yeah?

So we cool?

We're both.

We're both.

See you on the outside, yeah? Yeah, mate.

Unlucky, Tarek.

It's the taking part that counts.

I'm sure Mr Byrne will be impressed by your commitment.

Fair outcome, I suppose.

But I'm glad I did it. And thanks for all your encouragement.

Don't mention it.

Your, um, friend, did he... Yeah.

Yeah, that's all been sorted.

Excellent. Right, I'll see you in the morning. Cheers.

How dare you undercut us?

Scared of a little healthy competition, are we? How can I compete against you

when you're giving it away for less than cost?

It's called loss leading.

You're going to put me out of business at this rate.

Remark it.

How much do you earn, Grantley?

I'm a teacher. Ipso facto a pittance.

Yeah, well, it's a damn sight more than a dinner, lady. I rely on that money.

They've put the rates up at Fleur's home.

I need the money.

So do I.

Wait.

A good business is greater than the sum of its parts, is it not?

Is that some poncy way of saying you want to join Fordham?

All right, Matt. Thanks for letting us know.

Yeah, we're all thinking about you here.

Is Rosie OK?

She gave birth in the ambulance.

Rosie's all right, but the baby's critical. God knows what they're both

through. If there's anything that we can do... Well, I'm going down to the

hospital now, but I think it's going to be a waiting game.

Fingers crossed we'll all be wetting the baby's head soon enough.

I'm sure Lauren and Josh didn't mean to upset you.

And you'd know about that.

Maddie.

I'm so sorry.

The last thing I wanted to do was hurt you or your dad.

If I could change it, I would.

But it was a mistake.

A seriously bad mistake.

More like this.

I need to end up for a bit of a laugh.

To do the one with all the ideas.

What have I got?

Balloons and badges.

You'd make a great head girl.

I think we both know that's not true.

No, I was just stupid for getting carried away with it.

Well, you're definitely your father's daughter.

Yeah, I know.

That's a good thing.

I wish I was like you at school. I was the shy, nervous one who never put the

name forward for anything.

Well, who does that make me?

Emma Martin.

Life and soul of the party, always up for anything.

What I wouldn't have given to have been her.

You haven't turned out too badly.

Hi.

You forgot this.

That's fair.

You wrote me out.

No one needs a greater than mine.

Well, why's that?

You know, the op.

Oh, so you're saying there's something wrong with it?

No, but... Exactly.

You were right.

I should have listened to you earlier.

I've cancelled the beauty job. But what about the modelling?

Well, better than some catalogue clothes, of course.

I've got more important things to worry about than what I look like the whole

time. I'm going to use what I've got.

Not here, but up here.

Good for you.

Yeah.

I'm still going to get the birthmark removed.

It's a grand book.

It'll take me a few months to save up, but I'll be able to afford it if I keep

on with the beauty therapy.

Oi!

You need to knock those drinks on the head.

Yeah, I'll try.

Hey, Lauren, can you finish these off for me later?

Yeah, come round to mine now if you want.

Hey,

congratulations.

Yeah, dream ticket.

Thanks, guys.

Yeah, congratulations, mate.

I will be needing an entertainment officer, like, if you're interested.

Yeah, totally.

Sat.

I'm really sorry about earlier.

I've heard it all before, Josh.

Is that not a big enough lesson for you that I ended up in a hospital bed?

Are you really that stupid?

I'm sorry. I've promised I won't do it again.

You going to the speedway tonight?

Aces versus the Pirates, what do you think?

Yeah, fair question.

Are you all coming with me?

I thought I was grounded.

Well, you come in with me where I can keep an eye on you.

I'll get changed.

You all set?

Nearly. Just sorting out lesson cover for Matt.

Oh.

How are they doing?

Well, Rosie's all right, but the baby is still really struggling.

Do you think we should pay them a visit on our way home? It's probably best not

to. I mean, they know where we are if they need anything.

And there was me going to suggest that we take the phone off you because Zack

and Maddie are out.

Are they?

Give us a chance to talk babies of our own.

Maybe even make a start.

You're all right for this, aren't you?

Yes.

I'll catch you up.

See you in the car.

Grady, I can't. Keep up again tomorrow.

You struggle me.

Vanessa Cooper.

Here for the head of English.

Sorry. Nicky Boston.

Jealous, Kyle?

No. Don't go out with skanks.

What? Are you trying to say you've enjoyed having us around?

Oh, er... Been short?

Yeah, very much.

Let go of me!

You've got some explaining to do. Dad. You know what? You've had enough

Now you're going to get treated like any other pupil. Get inside.

Tom, wait. And what was he doing on this march of yours, apart from fighting?

After everything that we've been through, you promised me. Of course I

I had to. And we're smoking this crap.

Tell me!
