-Come on, come on, where are you?

-Why are you late, Geth?

-A dog attacked Mam's leg.

-I had to take her to hospital.

-The school elections are today. It's

-your job to prepare the bulletins.

-I've got a stall. I've got a stall.

-Very nice. What are you selling?

-Things that people have no use for.

-Hooray!

-What's this?

-What's this?

-

-A thing to smoke out bees, I think.

-That'll come in handy for someone.

-Hurry, put on your masks.

-I've broken wind.

-Give me strength.

-This is our chance. Relax.

-You're losing your cool.

-Am I?

-Am I?

-

-Yes. Everything will be fine.

-Alright. Sorry.

-Don't apologize, Geth.

-We'll be fine.

-Write a script

-for the 9.00am bulletin...

-..and for goodness' sakes,

-stop being so nervous!

-These are childish.

-Who brought them?

-Owain.

-Owain.

-

-Enough said. Oh, hello!

-Do you like the sign?

-I didn't copy anyone.

-I didn't look for ideas

-online either.

-I just checked

-how to spell democratiaeth.

-I take it

-you know what democracy is?

-Yes. Two foxes and a hen

-choosing what to eat for supper.

-I know. It's like musical chairs

-with enough chairs for everyone.

-That's my favourite party game,

-apart from pass the parcel.

-But hide-and-seek in the bomb!

-Do you know what it is, Jen?

-Do you know what it is, Jen?

-

-Democracy is people's right...

-..to choose their own boss.

-Not all countries are democracies

-so we're raising money for them.

-What for?

-What for?

-

-To help them.

-What for?

-Since the school's elections

-are today...

-..democracy is our theme.

-How did you land this job, anyway?

-I don't know. I put my name

-into a hat loads of times.

-I thought Mr Roberts

-was going to pull out a rabbit...

-But he pulled your name out instead.

-But he pulled your name out instead.

-

-Yes.

-Can I change schools, please, Miss?

-No.

-It's important that people

-make their own choices in the world.

-It's important we support democracy.

-Exactly. Want to buy a cake, Miss?

-Exactly. Want to buy a cake, Miss?

-

-You couldn't pay me to eat one.

-How do you think

-I keep my figure looking like this?

-Aerobics?

-Yes, that and dangerous crash diets.

-Right then, Mr Roberts...

-..are the nominees for the

-school president election to hand?

-I prepared them right away after

-you threatened to shave my head.

-Exciting!

-Sit in the chair.

-I've brought you down here

-to discuss the dreadful problem...

-..that this school currently faces.

-This is

-the problem I'm talking about.

-These two

-are standing in an election.

-They're standing

-as school president today.

-That's what happens when you leave

-Mr Roberts in charge of things.

-I don't want this clown

-becoming president...

-..or we'll be the laughing stock

-of every school once she speaks.

-I suggest

-that we rig the election...

-..to make sure Tesni wins.

-But she's bound to win anyway.

-Who'd vote for Betsan?

-I can't afford to risk it.

-Tesni has to win.

-She looks good...

-..and at least I can give her

-a script to learn before meetings.

-Now, listen very carefully.

-To make sure

-the pupils don't vote for Betsan...

-..I'm going to spread a story about

-her that's completely untrue...

-..on the school radio.

-Are you going to vote for me, Owain?

-Tesni, Tesni,

-reporters don't take sides.

-We just report the truth.

-There we are then.

-We've brought you here...

-..because

-you're the school's main DJ.

-We're not going to harm you,

-we just want...

-..a word.

-Don't do anything foolish.

-Take that bag off his head.

-It's risky.

-It's risky.

-

-Now!

-Hello, Owain.

-It's me.

-Miss Dearth.

-I can see that.

-The doctor told me

-not to do this silly voice...

-..because it frightens

-the other patients.

-Owain, we've brought you here

-to discuss something terrible.

-Has Deiniol turned into an ice bun

-from eating too many?

-No.

-Good job.

-I've told him not to try it.

-Owain, we have evidence...

-..that Betsan's

-been giving away free food...

-..from the charity stall...

-..to sway people to vote for her

-in today's elections.

-Betsan's standing

-for school president?

-That's what you get

-for wearing one hat to do two jobs.

-You picked her name out of a hat?

-You picked her name out of a hat?

-

-Yes.

-Owain, if Betsan has cheated...

-..it's not fair for Betsan to win.

-You have to make sure

-that Betsan loses.

-You have to let all the pupils know

-what Betsan has done...

-..so that they don't vote for her.

-You have five hours, Owain.

-You have five hours

-and fifty-nine...

-Which one of these

-should I put on the wall?

-The one where I look

-geek chic and clever...

-..or the one where I look

-powerful, geek chic and clever?

-That's a tough one.

-I love this.

-My picture's everywhere.

-"April sixth, it's spring.

-"The daffodils are in bloom

-and I'm so happy...

-"..I've been

-skipping around the garden...

-"..in trunks, goggles and armbands."

-News has just reached us...

-..that Betsan has been

-giving away free food...

-..to people

-from the charity stall...

-..to get them

-to vote for her in the elections.

-That's completely shameful.

-More about this shameful story

-throughout the day.

-What?

-What?

-

-Who gave you that story?

-Professional reporters

-never reveal their secrets.

-You reveal plenty of them in this.

-My primary school diary?

-Yes, it was in amongst

-the books you donated.

-Let's see.

-"January third.

-"It's been snowing and I've been

-stuffing snow down my pants. Brrr!"

-Who told you?

-I'm not saying.

-"August 23rd.

-Betsan made me a daisy chain.

-"I love Betsan. She's so clever."

-Please, Jen, you can't tell anyone.

-I only want one name from you.

-Alright.

-"June 23rd."

-"June 23rd."

-

-The Young Farmer's fair.

-There's a lot in here

-about two pigs...

-..mud, a hen and you.

-Do you want me

-to share this story with everyone...

-..or are you going to tell me

-who made up that story about Betsan?

-Tesni's way out in front.

-We have to get people

-to stop talking about this story...

-..and talk about something else.

-..and talk about something else.

-

-I don't understand what's going on.

-That's exactly how I feel.

-How do we get people

-to talk about something else?

-By giving them

-something else to talk about.

-I still don't get it.

-I still don't get it.

-

-I understand.

-Explain, please.

-We make up bigger stories...

-..and then Owain will have to

-talk about them on the radio...

-..instead of this story and people

-will vote for Betsan again.

-She appeals to pupils who want a

-president to make a mess of things.

-How are we going to do it?

-By outing the person who made up

-the story about Betsan as an idiot.

-Mr Roberts.

-Mr Roberts.

-

-Hooray! Vote for Mr Roberts!

-Are you following

-what's going on here?

-No.

-It's almost 11.00am.

-Mr Roberts gets here

-at the same time every day.

-Why do you think

-he uses these toilets every day?

-The staff toilets are far away...

-..and Mr Roberts is lazier

-than a sloth on sleeping tablets.

-Are you ready?

-Are you ready?

-

-Cling Film, go!

-I love playing hide-and-seek.

-One, two, three...

-Hush, Betsan!

-Get out of the way, Deiniol!

-Oh, no!

-Ready or not, I'm coming!

-Here you go, Mr Roberts.

-Will Owain run that story?

-His exact words were, "I'm God today

-and I'm a god who tells the truth."

-His feet

-are still on the ground then.

-Mr Roberts has been spreading

-these bogus stories about Betsan.

-Whose story do you believe?

-The story of a man

-who pees his trousers....

-..or that of a sensible

-and responsible girl like Betsan?

-One, two, three, four...

-It's a tough choice.

-Before we end, a reminder of

-the stories so far this lunchtime.

-Mr Roberts has peed his trousers.

-Posters of him can be seen

-all over school. Don't go far.

-I can't believe

-you peed your trousers.

-I didn't pee my trousers,

-I peed on them.

-What on earth were you doing

-peeing on your trousers?

-I didn't try to do it.

-The pupils know the story

-about Betsan came from you.

-No-one will ever believe the word

-of a man who pees his trousers.

-I peed on my trousers.

-Don't split hairs!

-The pupils who wanted to vote for

-Tesni are now voting for Betsan...

-..out of spite.

-If it's any consolation, I won't

-pee on my trousers ever again.

-As it stands...

-..Betsan's in the lead.

-I refuse to go to meetings with

-someone who thinks taramasalata...

-..is a country in Africa.

-Sort it out, Mr Roberts...

-..or I'll give you

-the kind of nightmares...

-..that make you pee the bed

-as well as your trousers.

-I peed on my trousers.

-Get out!

-It's not looking good, Tesni.

-I don't know what's gone wrong.

-What's gone wrong is that someone

-has sullied my good name...

-..which means

-no-one believes the story...

-..that Betsan stole from charity.

-..that Betsan stole from charity.

-

-You started this cheating business.

-All I wanted to do was win.

-Someone needs to sort it out.

-And that person is me.

-I'm afraid to tell you this...

-..but Betsan's in the lead...

-..at the moment.

-People like Betsan more than me?

-What will people think

-if you lose to Betsan?

-No-one'll

-want to sit by you lunchtime.

-You'll be like one of those

-Computer Club kids with no friends.

-Betsan'll be the prom queen

-at the end of the year.

-On top of that...

-..if you don't win,

-I wouldn't be surprised...

-..if Darth Vader

-made me dress like a prom queen.

-You don't want to see me

-in a tiara and ball gown.

-What is it?

-Plan B.

-I don't like this at all.

-Why can't we say good news about me

-instead of bad news about Betsan?

-Bad news makes the world go round.

-Hush, he's coming.

-Hi, Geth.

-Hi, Tesni. What are you doing here?

-I was waiting for you.

-Really?

-Of course.

-What's the next bulletin's

-main story?

-That idiot Mr Roberts

-peeing his trousers.

-What a jerk.

-So you haven't heard

-the latest story?

-Er, no, I don't think so.

-It's a juicy scoop.

-I doubt I can fit

-another story into the bulletin.

-No?

-Of course I can.

-What's in that envelope?

-I hope it's not bad.

-I don't know. Miss Dearth wrote it.

-That's why Carwyn from Year 7 will

-never trust anyone with big feet.

-Now for some breaking news.

-It's emerged that Betsan

-also cheated at primary school.

-Apparently, the road safety poster

-which won the school competition...

-..wasn't her own work, it was

-actually created by her mother.

-Is that story true, Betsan?

-Yes. Isn't that what everyone does?

-I won a really cool

-fluorescent jacket.

-I looked like a lighthouse.

-We have to do something, Deiniol,

-but what?

-Who brought these to school?

-Who brought these to school?

-

-You're a genius, Deiniol!

-I couldn't help but notice...

-..that you're wearing

-an interesting jumper-trouser combo.

-I peed on my trousers,

-I didn't pee my trousers.

-I've found you these -

-this year's fashion.

-Well, as you know,

-I'm a very fashionable man, Jen.

-Of course.

-Why don't you get changed in there?

-Betsan, this might sound strange...

-..but Mr Roberts wants to play

-hide-and-seek with you.

-One, two, three, four...

-No, not here, in the storeroom.

-I know he's hiding

-behind the photocopier.

-Ready or not, I'm coming!

-Where are you, you scamp!

-Oh, there you are!

-What are you doing?

-What's what smoke?

-Don't panic, Mr Roberts,

-it's only smoke.

-Then again, you'd better panic.

-Fire!

-I'm starting to feel light headed.

-Don't pee your trousers!

-I didn't pee my trousers!

-This is the end.

-Kiss of life!

-Kiss of life!

-

-Was this meant to happen?

-No. Bonus!

-No. Bonus!

-

-Everyone out!

-Mr Roberts is dead.

-Leave him. I don't want

-my hair smelling of smoke.

-Don't, Betsan! Don't!

-You're alive, Mr Roberts.

-I've saved your life!

-Give me a break.

-If this happened in a film,

-you'd have to be my slave.

-Let's get you out.

-Don't take photos of me like this.

-Don't take photos of me like this.

-

-It'll make people forget...

-..that you'd peed your trousers.

-On my trousers!

-This'll be the main story.

-The news team don't have time to

-change the news now there's a fire.

-A fire won't stop Owain.

-He's at his best under pressure.

-Get away from the door.

-Get back to writing a script.

-Let me go. I don't want to die.

-You've no time to stand outside

-before the next bulletin.

-Help!

-Help!

-

-Put this on!

-The newsroom

-still operates in a crisis.

-You've gone completely mad.

-We could die.

-You're going to kill me!

-Not only did I save Mr Roberts'

-life, I won the hide-and-seek too.

-He just fell down in front of me.

-Easy!

-Who wants to buy something?

-Lads, there's no fire.

-Emergency over.

-"January 25th,

-the St Dwynwen's disco.

-"I made scent out of rose petals."

-Listen up.

-Here's the result of the election.

-Tesni won 40% of the votes.

-Following her bravery...

-..in rescuing Mr Roberts...

-..Betsan has won

-with a majority of 60%.

-Betsan is Ffrwd y Mor's

-new school president.

-Well, Mr Roberts, I hope

-she'll make a good job of it...

-..otherwise I'll make every day

-you spend here a living nightmare.

-Thank you very much.

-Why are you clapping?

-You won the election.

-What election?
