1
00:00:36,910 --> 00:00:39,810
Right now, a fortnight might seem like a
long time.

2
00:00:41,230 --> 00:00:46,529
But let me assure you that when you're
studying for exams, two weeks can seem

3
00:00:46,530 --> 00:00:47,580
like no time at all.

4
00:00:48,930 --> 00:00:52,300
Pupils are always asking how much time
they should spend studying.

5
00:00:52,890 --> 00:00:54,670
The answer is all the time.

6
00:00:56,130 --> 00:00:57,530
Starting now.

7
00:00:59,390 --> 00:01:02,230
Cancel your social life. Forget the
television.

8
00:01:03,660 --> 00:01:06,850
Get yourself a place in the house where
you can work undeterred.

9
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,060
On the day of the exam, get up early.

10
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,020
Make sure you bring more than one pen.

11
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:15,240
Don't forget your calculator.

12
00:01:16,420 --> 00:01:18,480
Read the questions carefully.

13
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,860
Write on both sides of the paper.

14
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,780
Both sides of the paper.

15
00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:28,040
Both sides of the paper.

16
00:01:37,199 --> 00:01:42,920
Hi, this is Tony Nolan, own ranger,
reporting to you on Radio Sheridan.

17
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,900
Well, today I've moseyed on down to the
offices of the Junior Gazette newsroom.

18
00:01:49,860 --> 00:01:52,360
Babe, I'm not getting the feel of this.

19
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,180
Can we try it again?

20
00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:56,380
Sam. No, this is Tony.

21
00:01:56,620 --> 00:01:57,880
Yeah, and this is Sam.

22
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,720
Sorry, I always get you mixed up with
Sam.

23
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,780
Yeah, OK, then. Tape running.

24
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,610
Hi.

25
00:02:07,260 --> 00:02:09,380
I always thought the phone range was
life.

26
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,770
Until you met him.

27
00:02:10,771 --> 00:02:13,379
Come on, Spike, this guy's been in
really good publicity.

28
00:02:13,380 --> 00:02:14,900
The guy's sort of brain dead.

29
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:18,350
If he was on a life support, he'd give
away his kidneys.

30
00:02:18,351 --> 00:02:22,179
What's that old lady doing these days?
The one that was saving up her cat to

31
00:02:22,180 --> 00:02:23,230
make a coat?

32
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:24,730
Wearing them.

33
00:02:24,780 --> 00:02:25,830
Oh.

34
00:02:26,140 --> 00:02:28,910
And what year was the Paul Laura mental
attack passed?

35
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,130
1834.

36
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,800
Spike, parliamentary format?

37
00:02:32,860 --> 00:02:34,480
Can you hum one of those singles?

38
00:02:34,940 --> 00:02:36,440
Two weeks till the exam spike.

39
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,730
Get worried.

40
00:02:37,731 --> 00:02:41,299
You know, I used to wonder why they
called you laughing, Linda. And then it

41
00:02:41,300 --> 00:02:42,940
me. They don't.

42
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,030
Are you saying I haven't got a sense of
humour?

43
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,290
That was a joke.

44
00:02:47,291 --> 00:02:49,519
Linda, quickly, he wants to interview
you.

45
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,940
What? Tony Nolan.

46
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,370
Come on.

47
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,560
An interview on the phone?

48
00:02:54,940 --> 00:02:56,800
Now, that's what I call a chat -up line.

49
00:02:56,801 --> 00:03:00,839
Why can't he use a tape recorder like
everyone else? Well, then he wouldn't be

50
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,479
called the phone ranger, would he? Well,
how about the tape crusader?

51
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:04,530
And here she is.

52
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,300
Linda Day, editor of the Junior Gazette.

53
00:03:07,660 --> 00:03:08,710
Hello, Linda.

54
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,610
Hello, Tony.

55
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:15,220
Tell me, Linda, how did this Junior
paper first get started?

56
00:03:15,221 --> 00:03:19,559
Well, it was Mr Kerr's idea, really. He
kind of thought there should be

57
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,970
something more for the young people in
the area.

58
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,130
Go on.

59
00:03:24,131 --> 00:03:28,339
Well, anyway, he thought there should be
something more for the young people

60
00:03:28,340 --> 00:03:31,860
here, and so he got some of us a
headmaster.

61
00:03:36,450 --> 00:03:37,500
What?

62
00:03:37,730 --> 00:03:38,780
I'll call you back.

63
00:03:40,290 --> 00:03:42,050
Is this guy, like, important?

64
00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:44,890
Believe me, this guy loves important.

65
00:03:47,610 --> 00:03:48,660
Bike.

66
00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:50,960
Him here?

67
00:03:50,970 --> 00:03:53,440
This is usually the part where I wake up
sweating.

68
00:03:54,310 --> 00:03:55,810
Did you say you just walked in?

69
00:03:56,250 --> 00:03:59,440
These maths formula, I can never
remember them. The headmaster.

70
00:03:59,441 --> 00:04:02,369
I've written them out about a hundred
times. They just won't stick.

71
00:04:02,370 --> 00:04:04,840
Have you tried writing them in your
pencil case?

72
00:04:04,841 --> 00:04:08,149
Oh, yes, that is going to help me
remember them in an exam.

73
00:04:08,150 --> 00:04:10,010
Will, if you remember your fence, OK?

74
00:04:12,010 --> 00:04:13,170
You want us to what?

75
00:04:13,470 --> 00:04:15,880
I have my reasons, Linda. They should be
obvious.

76
00:04:15,890 --> 00:04:19,140
Mr Winters, what you are suggesting is
completely impractical.

77
00:04:19,390 --> 00:04:22,460
I came here this afternoon, Linda, to
meet you on your ground.

78
00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:25,440
And I make a suggestion you might at
least meet me halfway.

79
00:04:25,450 --> 00:04:27,110
Sir, can I just ask why?

80
00:04:28,030 --> 00:04:30,490
Because it's only two weeks to the exam.

81
00:04:31,010 --> 00:04:32,060
The mocks, yeah.

82
00:04:32,061 --> 00:04:34,489
And they're going to last another two
weeks on top of that.

83
00:04:34,490 --> 00:04:36,170
So? That's a conflict of interest.

84
00:04:36,730 --> 00:04:40,040
How can anyone be working all out for
the exams and for your paper?

85
00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:43,710
Colin, over here.

86
00:04:43,950 --> 00:04:45,910
I'm talking to Mr Nolan. Well, hang up.

87
00:04:46,130 --> 00:04:47,180
Yeah.

88
00:04:53,550 --> 00:04:55,130
Mr Winters has a problem.

89
00:04:55,490 --> 00:04:59,030
He doesn't see how we can work for our
exams and run the Gazette.

90
00:05:00,070 --> 00:05:01,750
Are you going to cancel the exams?

91
00:05:02,460 --> 00:05:05,110
I've asked Linda to close down your
paper for a month.

92
00:05:33,721 --> 00:05:41,029
Yesterday, the headmaster asked you to
halt the paper for a month. Is that

93
00:05:41,030 --> 00:05:42,080
to happen?

94
00:05:42,081 --> 00:05:45,749
It's laughable. We've already spent the
money we were going to make on the next

95
00:05:45,750 --> 00:05:46,749
four editions anyway.

96
00:05:46,750 --> 00:05:48,050
So how can we cancel it?

97
00:05:48,430 --> 00:05:53,089
And can I just add that available from
me personally at a very special price is

98
00:05:53,090 --> 00:05:56,630
the brand new Colin Matthews exam kit
containing cards.

99
00:05:56,990 --> 00:06:00,769
And unless I am completely satisfied
that the paper can continue without

100
00:06:00,770 --> 00:06:04,130
affecting anyone's exam prospect, it
comes to an end.

101
00:06:04,131 --> 00:06:05,489
Well, that's what he said.

102
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:06,540
Word for word.

103
00:06:07,340 --> 00:06:08,900
Well, I think we've got trouble.

104
00:06:09,060 --> 00:06:10,110
I think you're right.

105
00:06:10,580 --> 00:06:11,630
Sarah!

106
00:06:14,580 --> 00:06:18,670
Research material on playground violence
from our number one news hound, Spike.

107
00:06:18,780 --> 00:06:20,780
Give me 1 ,500 words, no more.

108
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:22,890
When's this for?

109
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,260
Yesterday or sooner.

110
00:06:24,620 --> 00:06:26,790
You should see his spelling, it's
amazing.

111
00:06:26,980 --> 00:06:30,230
I'll tell you the best bits, but you'll
have your own favourites.

112
00:06:30,740 --> 00:06:32,180
There's a lot of stuff in here.

113
00:06:32,420 --> 00:06:34,140
OK, take till yesterday evening.

114
00:06:38,140 --> 00:06:39,190
Yeah, of course.

115
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,680
Have you been sleeping OK?

116
00:06:40,940 --> 00:06:41,990
Yes.

117
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,030
I've been counting sheep till I see the
same ones come round again.

118
00:06:46,280 --> 00:06:49,050
Just as long as it's the gazette you
lose your sleep for.

119
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:51,550
Linda.

120
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:57,930
Are you all right?

121
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,200
No. Do you want to talk about it? No.

122
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,060
Can I help? No.

123
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:07,430
Do you know what word is being overused
in this conversation?

124
00:07:07,890 --> 00:07:09,050
No. That's the one.

125
00:07:11,850 --> 00:07:12,900
Let me guess.

126
00:07:13,330 --> 00:07:15,070
Sarah's having her exam breakdown.

127
00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:17,450
Yep. Is it that time of year already?

128
00:07:17,451 --> 00:07:21,969
We simply assured the headmaster that no
-one would be under pressure because of

129
00:07:21,970 --> 00:07:22,949
the Gazette.

130
00:07:22,950 --> 00:07:25,360
We've got a roaster system on the wall
over here.

131
00:07:25,610 --> 00:07:28,610
It means that nobody does more than an
absolute minimum.

132
00:07:30,250 --> 00:07:33,800
For those of you listening in black and
white, the wall charts in green.

133
00:07:34,410 --> 00:07:37,710
What about the kids who feel they still
can't cope with both?

134
00:07:39,230 --> 00:07:40,510
No -one's being forced.

135
00:07:40,990 --> 00:07:42,610
Anyone who wants to back out can.

136
00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:45,210
Listen, I've got work to do.

137
00:07:46,270 --> 00:07:49,890
And that was Linda Day, editor of the
Junior Gazette.

138
00:07:49,891 --> 00:07:51,329
Did you get all that, Sam?

139
00:07:51,330 --> 00:07:52,380
Ready when you are.

140
00:07:54,810 --> 00:07:59,569
Linda, do you remember asking me to tell
you if you were ever being insensitive

141
00:07:59,570 --> 00:08:00,620
or too demanding?

142
00:08:01,150 --> 00:08:02,200
No.

143
00:08:02,201 --> 00:08:04,269
Well, that's because you haven't.

144
00:08:04,270 --> 00:08:07,400
But you would have if you were less
insensitive and demanding.

145
00:08:07,790 --> 00:08:11,050
Kenny. Look, Sarah's already wound up
about her exams.

146
00:08:11,310 --> 00:08:12,930
You've just wound her up tighter.

147
00:08:12,931 --> 00:08:14,009
What's your point?

148
00:08:14,010 --> 00:08:17,850
We need Sarah for the next four
editions. We can't afford to lose her.

149
00:08:18,130 --> 00:08:19,470
Kenny, I know Sarah.

150
00:08:19,970 --> 00:08:22,850
She can be a bag of nerves, but she
isn't a quitter.

151
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,300
Make a sentence out of the following
four words.

152
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,340
I, you, told, so.

153
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,180
Kenny, up, shut.

154
00:08:57,420 --> 00:09:01,059
You had absolutely no right to behave in
the way that you did. The girl was

155
00:09:01,060 --> 00:09:04,419
already going to pieces over her exams
and all you can do is demand more work

156
00:09:04,420 --> 00:09:06,100
from her. Sir, I didn't know.

157
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,260
Linda, you are supposed to be one of her
friends.

158
00:09:09,740 --> 00:09:12,870
And she's supposed to be one of mine.
But she spoke to you, not me.

159
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:14,770
Sir.

160
00:09:14,771 --> 00:09:18,419
And you assured me there would be no
conflict between work for the exams and

161
00:09:18,420 --> 00:09:22,419
work for the paper. There won't be,
especially not for her. Now she's walked

162
00:09:22,420 --> 00:09:23,119
on us.

163
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,260
Don't you resent that?

164
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,460
Every time someone quits, it means more
work for the rest of us.

165
00:09:28,900 --> 00:09:30,220
We've got exams too.

166
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:37,200
And just how many would need to quit
before you were forced to hold the

167
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:38,840
Off the top of my head.

168
00:09:41,930 --> 00:09:43,730
Off the top of my head, I couldn't say.

169
00:09:43,890 --> 00:09:44,940
But it could happen.

170
00:09:44,990 --> 00:09:46,970
Colin told you the financial situation.

171
00:09:47,310 --> 00:09:49,480
We could stop, but we couldn't start
again.

172
00:09:50,110 --> 00:09:53,480
Compared with your academic success, I
think that hardly matters.

173
00:09:54,350 --> 00:09:58,570
The junior gazette will not get you a
job. Your exams might.

174
00:09:58,910 --> 00:10:01,620
Sir, are you planning to take any more
action on this?

175
00:10:01,621 --> 00:10:03,569
That's all now, Linda. You can go.

176
00:10:03,570 --> 00:10:04,620
Sir, are you?

177
00:10:05,310 --> 00:10:09,130
When I say you can go, Linda, that's an
order, not an opportunity.

178
00:10:10,530 --> 00:10:11,580
Yes, sir.

179
00:10:22,589 --> 00:10:26,439
Rosemary, do we have a list of who in
this school works on the Junior Gazette?

180
00:10:35,730 --> 00:10:36,780
Hi.

181
00:10:36,781 --> 00:10:41,369
I wish I could chat, Colin, but I really
have got rather a lot of work to do

182
00:10:41,370 --> 00:10:42,129
right now.

183
00:10:42,130 --> 00:10:43,510
Even in your lunch hour, eh?

184
00:10:46,370 --> 00:10:48,420
Heard Linda came down pretty hard on
you.

185
00:10:48,570 --> 00:10:49,890
Yeah, well, you know Linda.

186
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:52,250
Well, don't hold that against me.

187
00:10:53,590 --> 00:10:55,150
Sarah, can I ask you a question?

188
00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:56,240
I don't know.

189
00:10:56,241 --> 00:10:59,169
You don't know whether I can ask you a
question?

190
00:10:59,170 --> 00:11:03,149
I don't know how I can be talking almost
all my classes and still go to pieces

191
00:11:03,150 --> 00:11:04,650
whenever the exams are closed.

192
00:11:04,651 --> 00:11:06,329
That's what you were going to ask, isn't
it?

193
00:11:06,330 --> 00:11:07,650
I'd have been more tactful.

194
00:11:08,030 --> 00:11:11,350
I get asked that question so often I
mutter answers in my sleep.

195
00:11:11,850 --> 00:11:12,900
I care about that.

196
00:11:12,901 --> 00:11:16,869
I want you to know that I care about
what you're going through.

197
00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:21,339
And because I care so much... I'm here
to show you the brand new Colin Matthews

198
00:11:21,340 --> 00:11:25,080
exam kit. In that folder there, for the
most reasonable price imaginable.

199
00:11:25,620 --> 00:11:30,779
You get sample answers from the school's
smartest brains. You get questions

200
00:11:30,780 --> 00:11:34,760
spotted by kids with proven track
records in exam prediction.

201
00:11:34,761 --> 00:11:36,799
And I'm supposed to pay for this, am I?

202
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:41,619
Normally, I would charge a fiver. But
because it's you, because you're so

203
00:11:41,620 --> 00:11:45,879
to me, because I care about you, I'm not
going to embarrass you by charging any

204
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,550
less. And do you know the sort of people
who are going to go for that, Colin?

205
00:11:49,551 --> 00:11:52,669
The ones who are terrified out of their
wits of what their parents will say if

206
00:11:52,670 --> 00:11:55,589
they fail. The ones who are desperate to
pass but don't think they've got the

207
00:11:55,590 --> 00:11:59,109
brains to do it on their own. And the
ones like me who need all the

208
00:11:59,110 --> 00:12:00,160
you can sell them.

209
00:12:01,750 --> 00:12:04,710
I never knew the market would be that
big.

210
00:12:05,410 --> 00:12:09,849
Dear parent, it has been brought to my
attention that your child is deeply

211
00:12:09,850 --> 00:12:12,630
involved in the activities of the Junior
Gazette.

212
00:12:12,631 --> 00:12:17,109
Now, while I am, of course, entirely in
favour of this kind of extracurricular

213
00:12:17,110 --> 00:12:21,710
activity, I feel bound to point out that
the exams are almost upon us.

214
00:12:22,310 --> 00:12:26,869
This is a time when study is paramount
and must take precedence over any

215
00:12:26,870 --> 00:12:28,350
or pursuits, however worthy.

216
00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:33,930
I have been asked to remind you that
these letters are for your parents.

217
00:12:34,750 --> 00:12:37,750
Make sure they reach them with the
envelope still sealed.

218
00:12:39,020 --> 00:12:43,439
I therefore strongly urge you to halt
your child's association with the

219
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,440
for the duration of the exam period.

220
00:12:46,011 --> 00:12:47,979
Come in.

221
00:12:47,980 --> 00:12:51,680
Quite simply, this could be the
difference between parting and failing.

222
00:12:51,681 --> 00:12:53,619
Miss Hathorpe, it's morning break.

223
00:12:53,620 --> 00:12:54,880
Can I make you a cup of tea?

224
00:12:56,340 --> 00:12:58,960
Yours sincerely, Timothy Winter's
headmaster.

225
00:13:04,140 --> 00:13:06,060
You know something? We've got trouble.

226
00:13:10,531 --> 00:13:17,759
Please check that you are sitting at the
desk numbers you were assigned last

227
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:22,040
week. And do not turn over the exam
paper until you are told to.

228
00:13:26,100 --> 00:13:27,150
All set?

229
00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:29,020
I hope you pass this exam.

230
00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:30,270
I really do.

231
00:13:30,271 --> 00:13:32,819
Because I'd hate to think you wrecked a
paper for nothing.

232
00:13:32,820 --> 00:13:36,079
I hope you realise there's a queue of
people a mile long just waiting there to

233
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,130
speak to you again.

234
00:13:37,260 --> 00:13:38,310
Quiet there, please.

235
00:13:40,580 --> 00:13:41,630
That's ten o 'clock.

236
00:13:42,100 --> 00:13:43,600
You may turn over your papers.

237
00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:08,589
This is Radio Sherrington's phone
ranger, reporting once again from the

238
00:14:08,590 --> 00:14:09,640
Gazette.

239
00:14:09,930 --> 00:14:12,640
Yesterday, I told you about the
headmaster's letter.

240
00:14:12,970 --> 00:14:15,430
Today, I'm telling you about a major
crisis.

241
00:14:15,790 --> 00:14:19,789
With over half their team gone, will the
Junior Gazette be able to weather the

242
00:14:19,790 --> 00:14:23,050
storm? Earlier, I spoke to Linda Day,
editor.

243
00:14:23,051 --> 00:14:26,629
We've worked out a schedule that might
just get us through if we lose a few

244
00:14:26,630 --> 00:14:27,830
pages from each edition.

245
00:14:28,010 --> 00:14:30,900
But if anyone else walks out on us, we
could really be sunk.

246
00:14:31,190 --> 00:14:33,510
What if the Junior Gazette has to close?

247
00:14:34,110 --> 00:14:38,489
Can it be restarted? Colin Matthews.
It'll be a real struggle and we'd have a

248
00:14:38,490 --> 00:14:39,129
lot of debt.

249
00:14:39,130 --> 00:14:42,769
We're pretty fragile as it is already
and this could knock us out of the game

250
00:14:42,770 --> 00:14:47,229
completely. This is the phone ringer
handing you back to the afternoon show

251
00:14:47,230 --> 00:14:48,280
a junior gazette.

252
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,060
I hope I picked a good time. At the
moment, there's no such thing.

253
00:15:07,580 --> 00:15:08,700
A good time for what?

254
00:15:09,220 --> 00:15:10,340
To ask you a question.

255
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:12,410
Off the record.

256
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:13,970
What's the subject?

257
00:15:14,180 --> 00:15:15,520
Math? Physics?

258
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,540
History? I'm equally behind in all of
them.

259
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,140
Yes, but it's really rough on you.

260
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,710
If that's the question, do you really
need an answer?

261
00:15:24,711 --> 00:15:29,179
Actually, I was going to ask you, when's
the earliest date you can leave school?

262
00:15:29,180 --> 00:15:30,230
Don't say anything.

263
00:15:30,860 --> 00:15:32,360
I'm going to make a suggestion.

264
00:15:32,910 --> 00:15:34,050
I don't want you to talk.

265
00:15:34,770 --> 00:15:36,850
I want you to listen and think.

266
00:15:36,851 --> 00:15:41,049
I'm on my last six months with the phone
ranger, which is fine by me because

267
00:15:41,050 --> 00:15:44,869
it's only a slot in someone else's
programme and because I'm getting a show

268
00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:45,920
my own afterwards.

269
00:15:46,670 --> 00:15:48,070
A kids' news show, Linda.

270
00:15:48,390 --> 00:15:49,590
Saturday morning stuff.

271
00:15:50,410 --> 00:15:51,670
I'm looking for an editor.

272
00:15:52,170 --> 00:15:54,640
Someone the right age with the right
experience.

273
00:15:55,430 --> 00:15:58,320
I just want you to know that the job's
yours for the asking.

274
00:16:00,550 --> 00:16:01,600
Have a think about it.

275
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,219
I just thought this might be a good time
to mention it, when you're in the

276
00:16:06,220 --> 00:16:12,140
middle of working out which is more
important, your exams or your career.

277
00:16:19,620 --> 00:16:20,670
New work schedule.

278
00:16:21,540 --> 00:16:23,680
And Julie just phoned with Loster.

279
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:26,960
That's all of the graphics team.

280
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,540
What are we going to do?

281
00:16:28,740 --> 00:16:29,790
Without.

282
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,660
Anyway, I'll leave you to it.

283
00:16:40,979 --> 00:16:43,029
Kenny? Kenny, I don't see your name
here.

284
00:16:44,980 --> 00:16:46,030
Thanks, Kenny.

285
00:16:46,031 --> 00:16:48,019
It's always nice to know you're behind
me.

286
00:16:48,020 --> 00:16:49,700
I just wish you were still in sight.

287
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:50,770
I'm sorry, Linda.

288
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,050
Quitting's becoming a bit of a habit for
you, isn't it?

289
00:17:12,170 --> 00:17:13,430
Hey, Kenny, wait a moment.

290
00:17:13,431 --> 00:17:16,469
Linda came down pretty hard on you,
didn't she?

291
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:17,669
Yeah, well, you know Linda.

292
00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:19,170
You don't hold that against me.

293
00:17:21,250 --> 00:17:24,349
But listen, Kenny, I want you to know
that I care about this.

294
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:26,630
I care about what you're going through.

295
00:17:26,930 --> 00:17:27,980
Thanks, Colin.

296
00:17:33,590 --> 00:17:34,640
Hi.

297
00:17:36,710 --> 00:17:38,510
I'm your new assistant editor again.

298
00:17:39,580 --> 00:17:41,840
Spike no more jokes about my sense of
humour.

299
00:17:42,140 --> 00:17:43,190
That wasn't a joke.

300
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,320
So come on, what's our situation?

301
00:17:48,460 --> 00:17:52,899
Upper Creek, running out of paddles, and
tomorrow lunchtime I've got to go and

302
00:17:52,900 --> 00:17:54,160
see the headmaster again.

303
00:17:54,360 --> 00:17:56,240
Why? Because I asked to.

304
00:17:56,241 --> 00:17:58,759
So what do you want to tell him?

305
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,620
Nothing I could repeat in front of him.

306
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,659
I'll settle for saying that I'm going
ahead with the Gazette come what may,

307
00:18:05,660 --> 00:18:07,460
that he's made it pretty damned hard.

308
00:18:07,580 --> 00:18:09,440
Are you sure we should still go ahead?

309
00:18:09,980 --> 00:18:11,180
Not you as well.

310
00:18:11,420 --> 00:18:12,470
No, you.

311
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,610
Me failing my exams, that's the school
event.

312
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,640
But for you... For me, Spike?

313
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,240
I don't think it's going to matter.

314
00:18:22,380 --> 00:18:23,430
Oh, sorry.

315
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:26,970
Excuse me a moment.

316
00:18:41,340 --> 00:18:46,139
Because it's you, because you're a
friend and someone I care about, I'm

317
00:18:46,140 --> 00:18:47,700
knock the price down to six quid.

318
00:18:47,701 --> 00:18:49,619
All right, if I give you the money
tomorrow?

319
00:18:49,620 --> 00:18:51,920
I trust you, Julie, and I know you trust
me.

320
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:56,879
So while I'm trusting you to give me the
six quid tomorrow, you can trust me to

321
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,020
give you the exact gift.

322
00:19:02,980 --> 00:19:04,030
Oh, hi, Linda.

323
00:19:08,020 --> 00:19:09,070
Kate.

324
00:19:09,090 --> 00:19:11,140
Heard Linda came down pretty hard on
you.

325
00:19:12,530 --> 00:19:13,650
I care about that.

326
00:19:15,930 --> 00:19:16,980
Going for one more?

327
00:19:18,970 --> 00:19:20,210
You want to come with me?

328
00:19:20,930 --> 00:19:24,530
With my reputation around here, I can
only offer you moral support.

329
00:19:24,790 --> 00:19:26,470
All support gratefully accepted.

330
00:19:26,471 --> 00:19:28,509
So what are you going to tell him?

331
00:19:28,510 --> 00:19:33,369
How he nearly wrecked the Junior
Gazette, why he hasn't succeeded, and

332
00:19:33,370 --> 00:19:34,420
what I think of him.

333
00:19:34,750 --> 00:19:36,980
You hold him down. I'll frisk him for
weapons.

334
00:19:39,020 --> 00:19:40,070
Come in.

335
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,610
Mr. Winters.

336
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,910
But you don't know what he was trying to
do.

337
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,210
His job, Linda.

338
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:52,640
But if the cassette stops.

339
00:19:53,100 --> 00:19:54,440
Not if, Linda. Not if.

340
00:19:54,700 --> 00:19:56,640
We won't be able to start it again.

341
00:19:56,900 --> 00:19:59,010
And whose fault would that be? Mr.
Winters.

342
00:20:00,260 --> 00:20:01,310
Sarah's?

343
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:04,560
Is it someone I know?

344
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,280
Whose job is it to plan ahead?

345
00:20:06,281 --> 00:20:09,919
Who should have foreseen a conflict
between studying for the exams and

346
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:10,970
for the paper?

347
00:20:11,460 --> 00:20:12,510
The Prime Minister.

348
00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:15,620
Bad time for a joke, right?

349
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,420
And what about your exams, Linda? Spike?
They matter a great deal to you both.

350
00:20:20,421 --> 00:20:23,959
And please don't tell me about the job
offer with Radio Sherrington. I don't

351
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,310
think either party is quite ready for
that yet.

352
00:20:26,311 --> 00:20:27,859
You know.

353
00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:28,910
Now listen.

354
00:20:28,911 --> 00:20:33,099
Unless the paper can go ahead without
affecting anyone's exam prospects, and I

355
00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:34,780
don't see how it can, it stops.

356
00:20:34,781 --> 00:20:39,159
And if that gives you financial
problems, well, that's newspapers.

357
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,960
Now, you've got half your lunch hour
left. Good study time.

358
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,860
But, Mr Kerr... I've heard enough.

359
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:01,600
Well, we really showed him.

360
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,820
I hate being beaten.

361
00:21:04,650 --> 00:21:05,850
I just hate being beaten.

362
00:21:06,030 --> 00:21:07,230
You never stood a chance.

363
00:21:07,570 --> 00:21:09,670
Just next defeat from the jaws of
defeat.

364
00:21:10,510 --> 00:21:11,560
Hey, you two.

365
00:21:11,561 --> 00:21:14,789
I expect winter's came down pretty hard
on you, didn't it?

366
00:21:14,790 --> 00:21:17,320
Please, Colin, I've heard all about your
exam kit.

367
00:21:17,730 --> 00:21:21,529
But have you heard about the new
knockdown price of only seven quid? I

368
00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:23,150
new knockdown price had only six.

369
00:21:23,151 --> 00:21:26,209
How have you got time for all this?
Shouldn't you be studying?

370
00:21:26,210 --> 00:21:27,890
That's the beauty of it. I am.

371
00:21:28,390 --> 00:21:31,820
I work with all the smartest brains in
the school to get this exam kit

372
00:21:31,821 --> 00:21:35,669
Along the way, I picked up all the
lines, all the tips, all the angles. You

373
00:21:35,670 --> 00:21:37,290
kid, I don't just work for exams.

374
00:21:37,570 --> 00:21:39,030
I make exams work for me.

375
00:21:40,050 --> 00:21:43,360
It's all a matter of combining my
studying with what I do normally.

376
00:21:45,510 --> 00:21:46,830
Did I say something wrong?

377
00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:10,780
So what questions do you think are going
to be dead, sir?

378
00:22:10,781 --> 00:22:12,469
Chartists, they always come up.

379
00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:13,630
No, not in 78.

380
00:22:14,310 --> 00:22:18,010
That makes them a high probability, but
not a dead cert. Oh, come on.

381
00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:19,890
This is amazing, you know.

382
00:22:20,130 --> 00:22:22,720
I'm actually studying. I might even pass
something.

383
00:22:22,721 --> 00:22:26,009
I wonder if they'll declare a national
holiday.

384
00:22:26,010 --> 00:22:28,149
I don't believe you guys. You stole my
market.

385
00:22:28,150 --> 00:22:31,149
Who's going to buy my exam kit now they
know that the next four editions of the

386
00:22:31,150 --> 00:22:33,620
Junior Gazette are going to be ten times
better?

387
00:22:34,130 --> 00:22:35,330
Can we quote you on that?

388
00:22:38,030 --> 00:22:39,770
How are the sample answers coming?

389
00:22:39,810 --> 00:22:40,860
Oh, fine, great.

390
00:22:41,070 --> 00:22:43,720
I'll tell you something. It beats
working on your own.

391
00:22:43,970 --> 00:22:45,770
Well, I think it's an excellent idea.

392
00:22:45,771 --> 00:22:49,149
Not only do they learn about their
subjects, but they learn about the value

393
00:22:49,150 --> 00:22:52,460
teamwork and cooperation. I'm delighted
to be associated with it.

394
00:22:54,270 --> 00:22:55,320
Thank you.

395
00:22:55,450 --> 00:22:58,910
Well, Linda, you certainly make some
spectacular methods.

396
00:22:59,470 --> 00:23:00,520
But?

397
00:23:00,750 --> 00:23:02,190
Who said anything about but?

398
00:23:04,650 --> 00:23:07,240
Excuse me a moment. I've got someone I
need to talk to.

399
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,980
Hi. The Gazette and exam study.

400
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:20,340
Whether you're reading it or writing it.

401
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:21,600
I think we did good.

402
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:22,930
Yeah, I think so too.

403
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,300
I was just going to say thanks for the
immoral support.

404
00:23:27,740 --> 00:23:28,790
Anytime.

405
00:23:28,791 --> 00:23:32,679
Makes me almost think I shouldn't be
leaving for Radio Sherrington.

406
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,480
You're going to Radio Sherrington?

407
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,010
That was a joke.

408
00:24:13,610 --> 00:24:14,770
You look tired, Sarah.

409
00:24:14,970 --> 00:24:16,830
It is the middle of the exams, Colin.

410
00:24:16,831 --> 00:24:19,729
I care about that. I care about what
you're going through.

411
00:24:19,730 --> 00:24:20,549
Oh, no.

412
00:24:20,550 --> 00:24:24,100
Sarah, I want to introduce you to the
Colin Matthews exam recovery kit.

413
00:24:24,270 --> 00:24:25,530
Forget it, Colin. Exactly.

414
00:24:25,730 --> 00:24:27,350
Forget those troublesome exams.

415
00:24:27,470 --> 00:24:29,210
Work your way back to a quieter time.

416
00:24:29,211 --> 00:24:32,769
You're really sick, you know that? Have
a read of this short booklet about rest

417
00:24:32,770 --> 00:24:34,150
and relaxation techniques.

418
00:24:34,151 --> 00:24:37,729
Colin. It's got a title page followed by
four blank ones. There's nothing to

419
00:24:37,730 --> 00:24:39,110
read. Relaxing, isn't it?

420
00:24:39,310 --> 00:24:43,220
Colin! And here, an invaluable document.
How to tell your parents you failed,

421
00:24:43,370 --> 00:24:47,050
including a list of seven household
chores you should do before you tell

422
00:24:47,490 --> 00:24:48,550
No sale, Colin.

423
00:24:49,130 --> 00:24:50,450
If you buy one, I'll go away.

424
00:24:50,451 --> 00:24:52,379
OK, hang on.
