0:00:02 > 0:00:04- Mum left us dinner. Are you hungry? - Duh.

0:00:04 > 0:00:07Sorry. Stupid question.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09Ooh, please be chocolate and sweetcorn bake.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Please be chocolate and sweetcorn bake.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15What is that?

0:00:15 > 0:00:18- Dinner.- THAT isn't dinner.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21Dinner, like, covers the whole plate and comes with ketchup.

0:00:21 > 0:00:22Oh, come on, Jas.

0:00:22 > 0:00:26You know there hasn't been any real food on this planet since 2018.

0:00:26 > 0:00:29Sorry to interrupt, but what year are we in now?

0:00:29 > 0:00:312049.

0:00:31 > 0:00:32Oh.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35It's meal-replacement pills only these days.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Mmm. Delicious.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40This is awful!

0:00:40 > 0:00:42There's always dessert!

0:00:44 > 0:00:47Nooo!

0:01:30 > 0:01:32You're looking especially Martha-ish today, Martha.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34What happened to your blazer?

0:01:34 > 0:01:35I double-starched it.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37As chess club champions, Ollie and I

0:01:37 > 0:01:39are having our photo taken for the school prospectus.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Ah! You look great.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44And it's cool that Emmeline will get to be in the photo too.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Um, who's Emmeline?

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Oh, the spot on your chin.

0:01:49 > 0:01:50I always name my spots.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53It just makes them seem less intimidating, you know?

0:01:54 > 0:01:55No disrespect to Emmeline,

0:01:55 > 0:01:57but I'm not sure I'd want to share a photo with her.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00Well, this is no time for vanity. The chess club needs me.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Whether Emmeline is with me or not,

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I'm going to have to grin and bear it.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Ow. It hurts when I do that.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Mrs Griggs, I'm a bit concerned

0:02:14 > 0:02:16that you don't seem to be taking your work

0:02:16 > 0:02:18as seriously as you should.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21What do you mean? I've got everything under control.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25This is my "looks boring, read it later" pile,

0:02:25 > 0:02:28and this is my "looks REALLY boring, shred immediately" pile.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30And where's your pile of reports

0:02:30 > 0:02:33that I've been asking you to do for a month?

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- Don't tell me you've lost them. - Of course not.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37I know exactly where they are.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39See?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42In fact, I just called in Mr Malone

0:02:42 > 0:02:43to check through some details with him.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47It's so important to be accurate when one is writing reports.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:02:56 > 0:02:58I was just on my way to see Mrs Griggs.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00And you've actually managed to turn up on time.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03You're going to have to pinch me to make sure I'm not dreaming.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05- LAUGHS WEAKLY - Well, if you insist.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07DON'T pinch me.

0:03:07 > 0:03:08OK. Sorry.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Get in there now and do my reports.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14I'm watching you. Both of you.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15O...K.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19You, ah, you wanted to see me?

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Um...shall I come back later?

0:03:24 > 0:03:27No, there's no time to lose.

0:03:27 > 0:03:32This week I intend to win the UK Underwater Karate Championships.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Well, that's, ah, exciting.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38But, um, Mrs Rennison seems pretty insistent about some reports.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Oh, really? Well, she's never mentioned it to me.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43- MRS RENNISON, OVER INTERCOM: - 'Are you doing those reports?'

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Doing them right now, Mrs Rennison.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Well, I say pooh to reports.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53I usually just use the same one and change the names anyway.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56'I can still hear you, Mrs Griggs.'

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Just joking, Mrs Rennison.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Where were we? Ah, yes.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03I need a training partner.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06These championships are my Everest.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07And you're going to be my...

0:04:07 > 0:04:12well, one of those long ropes that pulls people up Everest.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15'I can't hear any typing

0:04:15 > 0:04:17'in there, Mrs Griggs.'

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Typing them up now.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22First training session, your classroom, 3pm.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26But what about Mrs Rennison? She said she's watching us.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28Oh, not scared of her, silly old sausage.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31'The intercom is still on, Mrs Griggs.'

0:04:39 > 0:04:41I'm ready for my close-up now.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Oh, you brought a friend for Emmeline.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48I think she's, ah, talking about the spot on your chin.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51- SIGHS - You should totally give him a name.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Otherwise, he's gonna feel left out.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I don't believe in naming non-humans.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57That's true.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59His pet snails are called Snail One and Snail Two.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Big cheesy grins, guys.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06That includes you, Emmeline and Steve.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10What? Ollie's spot looks like a Steve.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Sorry I'm late. Sorry, don't tell Mrs Rennison.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22Don't worry, Mr Malone,

0:05:22 > 0:05:25I gave everyone an impromptu talk on the significance of the wheel.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Everyone thought it was WHEELY great.

0:05:28 > 0:05:29That's good, Martha. GROANING

0:05:29 > 0:05:32Right, our new topic is the fight for gender equality

0:05:32 > 0:05:35in the late 19th and early 20th century,

0:05:35 > 0:05:39sometimes called the women's movement or feminism.

0:05:39 > 0:05:40Yes, Ollie?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Will there be a test at the end of the module?

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Ah, yes.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Yeah, that's a good idea. GROANING

0:05:53 > 0:05:54Oh, Mrs Griggs, do you have a minute?

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Ah, no, OK? Thank you.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Uh, we were just wondering if you have the chess club photo yet?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01SIGHS Ah, yes, I have.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05This is a list of karate throws in Japanese.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08Oh, and there's a typo.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10That should be "ko soto gari".

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Ah, there you go.

0:06:18 > 0:06:19Where's my spot?

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Oh, it's right there on your chin, Martha.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Now, if there's nothing else...

0:06:23 > 0:06:26No. In the photo. My spot's gone.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29The photographer must have airbrushed it out.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32- It's quite normal. - But mine's still there.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Yes, well, people expect men to be a little rough around the edges.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Not a woman. It's not a big deal.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41Luckily, some of us haven't had a spot since 2002.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48I can't believe she said that.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52Yes, how could anyone want to airbrush Emmeline out of history?

0:06:52 > 0:06:54It's totally unfair to treat girls and boys differently.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58This is exactly what the women's movement campaigned against.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01That's right. Which is why I've decided to do something radical.

0:07:01 > 0:07:05I am going to write a strongly worded letter of complaint

0:07:05 > 0:07:07- to Mrs Griggs. - Good idea. You know what?

0:07:07 > 0:07:10You should even put some sections all in capitals.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14- You know what? I will. - Go, Martha!

0:07:14 > 0:07:16And Emmeline.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19DOOR OPENS

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Mr Malone!

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Where's your wetsuit? I thought we were doing underwater karate?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29No. This session's purely theory.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31I need to revise my list of throws.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33You could have told me that earlier.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Mr Malone,

0:07:38 > 0:07:42I said I need to see the class attendance figures, not YOUR figure.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45The figures for... Yeah, nice one, Mrs G.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47I am not joking.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Oh, sorry.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53How can I be expected to compile the reports

0:07:53 > 0:07:55without the necessary information?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Don't you have Year 11 in five minutes?

0:07:57 > 0:08:00I was just going. As soon as I find my trousers.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Why didn't you tell her what we're really doing?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06I-I thought you weren't scared of her.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09I lied. She's absolutely terrifying.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17You didn't tell me you were bringing a friend home for dinner, darling.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22I've got some incredibly expensive cream upstairs

0:08:22 > 0:08:24that'll take care of that in a jiffy.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Actually, Mother, that has a name.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30It's Emmeline, and she's a very important symbol

0:08:30 > 0:08:32of the gender inequality we face at school.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35We've written a letter to Mrs Griggs and everything.

0:08:35 > 0:08:36Really? And what did she say?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Well, she's ignored us so far.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40CLICKS TONGUE IN ANNOYANCE Ollie says...

0:08:40 > 0:08:42"Ollie says"?

0:08:43 > 0:08:45You're campaigning against gender inequality

0:08:45 > 0:08:47and you're taking orders from a man?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49YOU need to take charge, Martha.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Maybe you could do it whilst wearing a little bit of concealer.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58Mrs Griggs, we would like to know

0:08:58 > 0:09:01- why you haven't responded to our letter.- MY letter!

0:09:01 > 0:09:02Ah...

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Letter? What letter? I haven't had a letter.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07- It's there. - Oh!

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Must have missed it.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Mrs Griggs! This is a very important issue.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18No, this is an important issue -

0:09:18 > 0:09:20stick with purple or...

0:09:21 > 0:09:23..yellow?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29The early campaigners for gender equality

0:09:29 > 0:09:31were ignored by the authorities.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33I know the feeling.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35But then along came Mrs Pankhurst,

0:09:35 > 0:09:37who led a group of women called the suffragettes,

0:09:37 > 0:09:39who refused to be ignored.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41What did they do?

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Yeah, what did the WOMEN do to get people to listen?

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Well, they held marches, protests,

0:09:47 > 0:09:49some of them even went on hunger strike.

0:09:50 > 0:09:55Wow! Imagine caring about something so much that you just give up food.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58No, can't imagine it!

0:09:58 > 0:10:00- BOTH:- I've had an idea!

0:10:00 > 0:10:02We're going to have a protest.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04For equal rights for women.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07This is like the film where the person got cloned.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Yeah. It's funny how you both got the idea at the same time.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Well, I think I probably had it first.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Well, it really doesn't matter,

0:10:14 > 0:10:15because this is the women's movement

0:10:15 > 0:10:18and as far as I'm aware, you're not a woman.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Neither are you. You're a girl.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22- Now you're just being pedantic. - Thank you.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Ah, guys, it's not important who's in charge,

0:10:24 > 0:10:27as long as we all stand together for equality.

0:10:28 > 0:10:29- BOTH:- Absolutely.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Anything for equality.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Equality rules.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Everyone, take a sign.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45You'll notice the text is perfectly centred.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49I, ah, made signs for the protest.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51What a shame. We've already got some.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52SIGHS

0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Wow, Ollie, it's... - Huge?

0:10:56 > 0:10:57I know.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Nice sandwich board, Jas.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Oh, don't talk about sandwiches.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Are you joining the protest too?

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Yeah. I'm going on hunger strike.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Are you sure that's a good idea?

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Given that you do eat about 28 times a day.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Anything for equality.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Hear, hear. Have a sign.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24- CHANTING:- Fairness now! Equality!

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Fairness now! Equality!

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Oh, hi, Mr Malone. Could you hold this for a minute?

0:11:29 > 0:11:30Ah...

0:11:30 > 0:11:32This board is really uncomfortable.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- Who's in charge here? OLLIE AND MARTHA:- I am.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37What on earth do you think you're doing?

0:11:37 > 0:11:38We're protesting.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41- No, we're not. - Mr Malone gave me the idea.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42No, I didn't!

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Well, what's that, then?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46What is going on in this school?

0:11:46 > 0:11:50School reports unwritten, protests in the corridors,

0:11:50 > 0:11:53and you doing absolutely nothing about it,

0:11:53 > 0:11:57and you positively encouraging it!

0:11:57 > 0:11:58- Uh... - You're right, Mrs Rennison.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02As head teacher, I must take firm action.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06- GRUNTS - I tried.

0:12:14 > 0:12:15GRUNTS

0:12:15 > 0:12:18COUGHS

0:12:18 > 0:12:20- What do you think you're doing? - What am- I- doing?!

0:12:20 > 0:12:22You've just nearly strangled me!

0:12:22 > 0:12:24We need to stay under Mrs Rennison's radar.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Nothing must jeopardise my training

0:12:26 > 0:12:28for the Underwater Karate Championships.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31- Is that clear? - Can I go now?

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Our next training session, 2pm tomorrow sharp.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40You know I'll always love you.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42I just can't be around you right now.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46You understand that, don't you?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50I hope this protest is worth it

0:12:50 > 0:12:53cos it looks like it might be sending Jas mad.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Oh, it's totally worth it. Just ask Emmeline.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58She's getting more and more powerful, just like the protest.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Look how she throbs with anger.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Stop it! You're grossing me out.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Spot!

0:13:17 > 0:13:18I mean, I spotted you...

0:13:18 > 0:13:22pus...ing... I mean, passing...by.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24So, um, hi.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Hi, guys. - Wow.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30Jas would have to give that a first AND last name.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33Oh, this guy? Yeah, he's pretty immense, isn't he?

0:13:35 > 0:13:40Yeah, spots can be a real drag for us guys, eh, Matt?

0:13:40 > 0:13:42Mm-hm.

0:13:46 > 0:13:47Wow.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50The fake spot thing's really caught on.

0:13:50 > 0:13:51It's not actually.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Thanks for standing up for women's equality, Matt.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Spots are so in right now.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01ARE you standing up for women's equality?

0:14:01 > 0:14:02I don't get why it's a big deal.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Obviously, everyone should be treated the same

0:14:04 > 0:14:07but, hey, if girls want to buy me milkshakes for thinking that,

0:14:07 > 0:14:09who am I to say no?

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Strong core muscles are the foundations of success.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Yeah, I've actually always wanted a six-pack.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24GRUNTS

0:14:24 > 0:14:25I didn't hear her come in.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27She moves silently.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29I think she wears special ninja shoes.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Can we please take this as a sign to stop the training?

0:14:33 > 0:14:34Absolutely not.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36In fact, we need to up the intensity.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Really feel the burn.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Shall I go and get some smelling salts for Mrs Rennison?

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Hm, I kind of prefer her like this.

0:14:45 > 0:14:46LAUGHING

0:14:57 > 0:14:59I'll finish reading that later. LAUGHS WEAKLY

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Isn't it great the campaign's gaining momentum?

0:15:03 > 0:15:05There's just one problem.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Emmeline. She's dying.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Why don't you just draw on a fake spot?

0:15:11 > 0:15:13Everyone else is.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Emmeline can't be fake.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17She's the figurehead of the whole campaign.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21I know. Why don't you just replace her with a sister?

0:15:21 > 0:15:24Jas, I know my IQ puts me in the top 5% of the population,

0:15:24 > 0:15:26but even I can't grow spots on demand.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Don't worry about that.

0:15:28 > 0:15:32Just stand back and make way for the Jas idea train.

0:15:32 > 0:15:33Choo choo!

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- Please don't do that. - OK.

0:15:40 > 0:15:41SHOUTS

0:15:41 > 0:15:42- Whoo! - Oh.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44SQUEALS

0:15:51 > 0:15:53These are some of the delicious things I would have eaten

0:15:53 > 0:15:55if I wasn't on hunger strike.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01It's just what we need to summon Emmeline's sister.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03I can't eat all of this.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07SIGHS You're not going to eat it.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09You're going to wear it.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19Perfect. Lily, do you have the finishing touch?

0:16:22 > 0:16:25Jason ran five miles in this last night.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28It stinks.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30EXHALES

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Simply cover and marinate for 20 minutes.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35Anything for equality.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44May I present...Emmeline's sister.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46I call her Christabel.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Wow. Christabel is even bigger than her sister.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53The campaign has a new figurehead.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57Yeah, well, I think I'm getting a verruca.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Have you seen Mrs Griggs? Those reports still aren't done.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06No, I've not seen her. I've not seen her at all.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08You wouldn't lie to me, would you, Mr Malone?

0:17:08 > 0:17:10- SQUEAKS - No.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15- GRUNTS - And 23 and 24.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17Come on, Mr Malone, count them out.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Now that we've got Christabel,

0:17:20 > 0:17:22we need to take the protest to the next level.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24That's exactly what I was going to say.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27- BOTH:- Mr Malone!

0:17:27 > 0:17:29GRUNTS

0:17:29 > 0:17:30What did the suffragettes do next?

0:17:30 > 0:17:32- Yes, what was their next move? - No.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34No. No, no more suffragettes.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Let's... Let's do... Let's do the Nazis.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39- We've done them. - Well, let's do them again.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Um, Mr Malone, the suffragettes are part of the national curriculum.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46That's right, which means you're contractually obliged to tell us.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48SIGHS

0:17:51 > 0:17:53The suffragettes chained themselves

0:17:53 > 0:17:56to the railings of important buildings.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00- BOTH:- I've got an idea!

0:18:00 > 0:18:03This is like the sequel to that film where the person got cloned.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06We're going to chain ourselves to...

0:18:06 > 0:18:07..the Houses of Parliament.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09School bike rack.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11I don't want to be mean, Ollie,

0:18:11 > 0:18:14but I think Martha's idea is more achievable.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- CHANTING:- Fairness now! Fairness now!

0:18:19 > 0:18:21Gender equality is one of the most pressing concerns

0:18:21 > 0:18:23of the 21st century

0:18:23 > 0:18:25and must be addressed immediately.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- Yeah. - Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt!

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Josh Ribbetts, Cranmede Gazette. Can I get a quote?

0:18:29 > 0:18:30Er, yes.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Gender equality is one of the most pressing concerns

0:18:33 > 0:18:36of the 21st century and must be addressed immediately.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40You took the words right out of my mouth.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42- Thanks. - That's great. Anything else?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Who?

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Be cool, we're all equal.

0:18:46 > 0:18:47- Brilliant. - GIRLS CHEER

0:18:47 > 0:18:50Alright. It's alright. You made your point now.

0:18:50 > 0:18:51What's going on with Rufus?

0:18:51 > 0:18:53KIDS LAUGH

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Well, are you going to say anything?

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Oh, yes. Right.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58What on earth do you think you're doing?

0:18:59 > 0:19:01That sort of thing?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03- BOTH:- Mr Malone told us to do it.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04Honestly, Mr Malone,

0:19:04 > 0:19:08we've got much more important things to worry about in this school,

0:19:08 > 0:19:10like report writing and...

0:19:11 > 0:19:13..other important things.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16And you children, call off this silly protest immediately.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18STUDENTS MURMUR

0:19:18 > 0:19:21# Amazing grace...

0:19:21 > 0:19:24# How sweet... #

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Actually, it would have made more sense

0:19:26 > 0:19:28for a girl to start the singing,

0:19:28 > 0:19:30'cause we feel more connected to the struggle.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Well, I've already started it, haven't I?

0:19:32 > 0:19:33Mm.

0:19:33 > 0:19:39# That saved a wretch like meeee! #

0:19:49 > 0:19:52I swear, those girls are one step away

0:19:52 > 0:19:53from asking to touch his hair.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55And then I'm going to be mad.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57It's not very suffragette-y to have bad thoughts

0:19:57 > 0:19:59about your sisters, you know.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03I know, but they've been giggling at his jokes for 20 minutes.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05I mean, he's not THAT funny.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08I wonder how the suffragettes would have dealt with this issue.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Yeah, it's tough being a suffragette.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14Earlier, I hallucinated that Martha was a giant hot dog.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19But, hey, anything for equality, right?

0:20:19 > 0:20:21SIGHS

0:20:21 > 0:20:23Yeah.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Anything for equality.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Equality...!

0:20:26 > 0:20:28The school rules clearly state

0:20:28 > 0:20:34that no pupil must be chained to any piece of school equipment.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Well, I never thought I'd say this,

0:20:36 > 0:20:37but sometimes rules need to be broken.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- MRS FITZGERALD:- She's right!

0:20:39 > 0:20:41- Yeah! - Fight the power!

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Yeah!

0:20:42 > 0:20:44You'll need something better

0:20:44 > 0:20:45than that so-called rule book of yours

0:20:45 > 0:20:47to halt THIS protest.

0:20:47 > 0:20:48Yeah!

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- That's right! - Yeah!

0:20:50 > 0:20:51We're not going anywhere!

0:20:51 > 0:20:53- That's right! - Yeah!

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Not until women achieve total dominance

0:20:56 > 0:20:59and men become nothing but an irrelevance!

0:20:59 > 0:21:02STUDENTS FALL SILENT That's... Ah, no.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Mother, we want everyone to be the same.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08That's the whole point of the protest.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10THEY SIGH ADORINGLY

0:21:10 > 0:21:13Well, in that case, can somebody please find me some bolt cutters?

0:21:13 > 0:21:15- I'm going home. - Well...

0:21:15 > 0:21:19Seems that not ALL females feel connected to the struggle.

0:21:19 > 0:21:20Hm?

0:21:20 > 0:21:23You need to stop following me like this.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I know what you're doing.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27You're trying to bully me into giving in.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30But you should know that I have very strong willpower and...

0:21:37 > 0:21:38Hey, Matt.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Would you like to glue some signs with me?

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Yeah, I'd love to.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43Great.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46And Natasha, Jenny, Rashida and Isla can help too?

0:21:47 > 0:21:50You know what? Forget it.

0:21:51 > 0:21:52BRUSH CLATTERS

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- Jas?- There you are, I really need to talk...

0:21:57 > 0:21:58What's that?

0:22:01 > 0:22:04This was the first time.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Well, second if you count the cake. LAUGHS WEAKLY

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Twelfth if you count each individual slice.

0:22:14 > 0:22:18- What are you doing? - Making up some more of MY signs.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Yours aren't having enough impact.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22I should be in charge of gluing.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24I don't think that's a good idea.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26- Do you? - What's that supposed to mean?

0:22:26 > 0:22:29Perhaps if a man HAD been in charge of the women's movement,

0:22:29 > 0:22:31they might have got a bit further.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35Hey, give me that!

0:22:35 > 0:22:37- It's... - GRUNTS

0:22:54 > 0:22:57Stop! We're meant to be sticking together!

0:22:58 > 0:23:00- LAUGHS - Stop!

0:23:00 > 0:23:02STICK together!

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Not now, Jas.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06My hand's stuck.

0:23:06 > 0:23:07It's his fault.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09Your fault. You interrupted...

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Soiling school property!

0:23:13 > 0:23:15Mrs Griggs's office, now!

0:23:21 > 0:23:23And so you're all in detention for a week

0:23:23 > 0:23:24for contravening school rules,

0:23:24 > 0:23:26blah, blah, blah, etc, etc, etc.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Um, are-are you going to eat that?

0:23:29 > 0:23:32I sincerely hope your protest was worth it.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Actually, it was.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Some things are worth getting into trouble for.

0:23:36 > 0:23:37I know.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41Like winning the UK Underwater Karate Championships this afternoon.

0:23:42 > 0:23:43Look!

0:23:45 > 0:23:47From now on, there will be no more airbrushing

0:23:47 > 0:23:49of girls' spots in this school.

0:23:49 > 0:23:50I'm glad our protest made you aware

0:23:50 > 0:23:53of the inherent sexism in the policy.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Oh, protest, shmotest. Look at what they've done.

0:23:55 > 0:23:59They've changed my turquoise fantasma wetsuit to plain old black.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- SQUEALS - You should sue.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05The turquoise would have really made your eyes pop.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Now, Martha, go and get yourself cleaned up.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10The school paper want more photos.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11Oh, and don't forget to mention

0:24:11 > 0:24:14that I support your campaign one hundred percent.

0:24:17 > 0:24:18SIGHS

0:24:18 > 0:24:21She's right, the turquoise DID make my eyes pop.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23DOOR CLOSES SIGHS

0:24:25 > 0:24:26Matt!

0:24:29 > 0:24:31I just wanted to say sorry for the way I acted.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35I might have got, well, just a tiny bit jealous.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39- Over what? - All those girls crowding around you,

0:24:39 > 0:24:41thinking you're amazing.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44- Which you are, obviously, but... - Lils, stop.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46I know the point of all this has been to treat everyone the same,

0:24:46 > 0:24:49but there's some people you'll always feel differently about.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52- OK? - HARPS PLAY

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Lily.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56Lily?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Shh.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00I'm still enjoying the moment.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02OK.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07I just wondered if you'd considered getting a new training partner

0:25:07 > 0:25:10because I'm not sure that underwater karate is...

0:25:10 > 0:25:12Oh, forget underwater karate.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Been there, done that, won the Golden Snorkel.

0:25:15 > 0:25:16So there won't be any more training?

0:25:16 > 0:25:18- No.- Oh.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Because we'll be too busy training for ballet chess.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30SQUEALS CRASH!

0:25:30 > 0:25:31Ooh!

0:25:31 > 0:25:34Um, that's trickier than it looks.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38What about Mrs Rennison? What-what-what if she finds out?

0:25:38 > 0:25:43A decrepit mouse will always be caught by a wise owl.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46- What?! - I completely outsmarted her.

0:25:46 > 0:25:47As far as she's concerned,

0:25:47 > 0:25:50we were both at school this afternoon,

0:25:50 > 0:25:53not achieving sporting immortality.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54SIGHS

0:25:54 > 0:25:58So training begins tomorrow at 10am. Wear a tutu.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00SNORTS

0:26:00 > 0:26:03- MRS RENNISON:- 'The intercom does have an off switch, Mrs Griggs.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06'Even a decrepit mouse knows that.'

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Don't go out there.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10We will live in here from now on.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15In case anyone was wondering,

0:26:15 > 0:26:18glue is almost impossible to get out of hair.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Did you have to have your photo taken like that?

0:26:21 > 0:26:24It's a shame we don't believe in airbrushing(!)

0:26:24 > 0:26:27- Well, anything for equality. - Yeah.

0:26:29 > 0:26:30Anything for equality.

0:26:33 > 0:26:38I do this to show solidarity towards my sisters' struggle.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40It's very supportive of you.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42Sorry I tried to take over.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Don't worry. I'm sorry I tried to freeze you out.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48The fight for equality is for everyone.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51Maybe not my mother, but everyone else.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53To the sisterhood.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56GRUNTS

0:26:57 > 0:26:59I think the sisterhood wouldn't mind

0:26:59 > 0:27:01if you both wore hats for a while.
