-BOTH:

-Welcome to the Dumping Ground.

0:00:020:00:04

CHEERING

0:00:040:00:06

Woo!

0:00:060:00:07

SHOUTING

0:00:070:00:09

Help! Help!

0:00:090:00:10

It's not as bad as it sounds.

0:00:100:00:12

If you're watching this, you're one of us now.

0:00:120:00:15

Relax. You're going to love it here.

0:00:150:00:17

You'll meet some amazing new friends.

0:00:170:00:20

Tah-dah!

0:00:200:00:22

Get to try exciting new food.

0:00:220:00:24

We promise, it's an experience you'll never forget.

0:00:250:00:29

What?

0:00:290:00:31

No...

0:00:310:00:32

Brilliant.

0:00:320:00:33

But remember,

0:00:330:00:34

this is a place where random chaos can strike at any time.

0:00:340:00:38

So, you have to be prepared for pretty much anything.

0:00:380:00:44

SCREAMING

0:00:460:00:48

So, that's why we've made this video blog.

0:00:480:00:50

We've been through all this...

0:00:500:00:52

So that you don't have to.

0:00:520:00:54

This time on the Dumping Ground Survival Files...

0:00:570:00:59

We're in search of the truth.

0:00:590:01:01

Solving mysteries, uncovering scammers

0:01:010:01:03

and trying to see the bigger picture.

0:01:030:01:05

Today we're going to talk about the truth, the whole truth...

0:01:100:01:14

-And nothing but the truth.

-Yep.

0:01:140:01:17

We're going to sort out the solid facts from the crazy fiction

0:01:170:01:21

-and work out what's really going on in this place.

-Or are we?

0:01:210:01:24

-Yes, we are.

-OK.

0:01:250:01:28

Let's face it, most of us Dumping Grounders have secrets...

0:01:280:01:32

-Spying on Lennie?

-None of your business.

0:01:320:01:34

Frank told me what was going on.

0:01:340:01:36

-It's none of your business.

-Yes, it is.

0:01:360:01:39

'..or at least things we don't want to talk about.'

0:01:390:01:41

-What are you doing?

-None of your business.

-Let me see.

0:01:410:01:44

-The truth is out there.

-Or is it?

0:01:460:01:50

MUSIC: "Mandy" By Barry Manilow

0:01:500:01:52

People can lie about the strangest things, like Elektra.

0:01:520:01:56

You mean Mandy!

0:01:560:01:58

Mandy's got a visitor.

0:02:020:02:04

-Who?

-It's Elektra's real name.

0:02:040:02:06

How weird is this?

0:02:060:02:07

-You're Mandy.

-Elektra.

-BOTH LAUGH

0:02:090:02:12

She should have just told us. We wouldn't have taken the mick...

0:02:120:02:15

much.

0:02:150:02:17

Guys, this is my...

0:02:170:02:19

My sister.

0:02:190:02:20

-Melissa Perkins.

-Perkins.

0:02:200:02:23

Pleased to meet you.

0:02:230:02:25

Pleased to meet you all.

0:02:250:02:26

So that means you're Perkins too.

0:02:260:02:29

Genius, Sherlock(!)

0:02:290:02:30

'Yep, not just Mandy but Mandy Perkins!

0:02:300:02:35

'Mandy Perkins!'

0:02:350:02:36

People hide the truth for all sorts of reasons...

0:02:380:02:41

Mandy Perkins!

0:02:410:02:43

..but you have to be careful.

0:02:430:02:45

Cos if people suspect you're not being straight with them,

0:02:450:02:48

they might jump to the wrong conclusion.

0:02:480:02:50

MUSIC: "Face Up To The Truth" By Doris Troy

0:02:520:02:54

For example, nobody knew the truth about Faith...

0:02:540:02:59

until the day the police turned up to speak to her.

0:02:590:03:02

-Faith's been nicked.

-No way.

0:03:050:03:07

Yes way. They're arresting her now.

0:03:070:03:09

ALL TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:03:180:03:20

(Put a sock in it. Quiet.)

0:03:200:03:23

-Faith has not been arrested. Faith is not in any trouble.

-Yeah, right.

0:03:230:03:27

She could have been robbing stuff for ages.

0:03:270:03:29

Some people start when they're little - Jody's brother did.

0:03:290:03:32

I can't believe you lot. Faith's supposed to be our friend.

0:03:320:03:35

That doesn't mean she hasn't nicked stuff.

0:03:350:03:36

And Mike said she's not in trouble.

0:03:360:03:38

I forgot the police are always popping round to see people

0:03:380:03:40

-who aren't in trouble.

-Mike's not going to lie about that, is he?

0:03:400:03:43

He is protecting her - it's his job.

0:03:430:03:45

How many of you actually know why Faith is in care in the first place?

0:03:450:03:49

I mean, I share a room with her and she hasn't told me

0:03:490:03:51

anything about herself.

0:03:510:03:53

'Without any facts to slow us down,

0:03:530:03:55

'we were free to make up our own gossip about Faith.'

0:03:550:03:58

-They found drugs on her.

-Really?

-Yeah.

0:03:580:04:01

It's a secret, so you have to promise

0:04:010:04:02

-you won't say anything, OK?

-Yeah, I promise.

0:04:020:04:05

I can't believe you just did that.

0:04:050:04:06

You better watch your back cos I will get you back.

0:04:060:04:08

-I know why Faith got arrested.

-Why?

0:04:080:04:11

She was dealing drugs and that's not all. She did!

0:04:110:04:15

-What you on about?

-It's true. She's a big dealer called Raz.

0:04:150:04:19

Got her own gang and everything.

0:04:190:04:20

-Police found her stash and loads of money.

-Says who?

0:04:200:04:23

Well, I'm sworn to secrecy,

0:04:230:04:25

but I reckon she'll get at least ten years.

0:04:250:04:28

'But none of that was true.

0:04:310:04:33

'In fact, the police wanted to speak to Faith

0:04:330:04:35

'because they thought her brother Raz was dead...

0:04:350:04:38

'..but he wasn't.'

0:04:400:04:42

You all right?

0:04:450:04:46

Wait. Wait. Faith. Faith. Faith.

0:04:490:04:53

-I thought you were dead.

-What?

0:04:530:04:55

The police came. They found a body, said it was yours.

0:04:550:04:59

-What?! How come?

-They had your wallet.

0:04:590:05:01

-Must have been when I got mugged.

-I kept thinking about you!

0:05:030:05:06

My brother being dumped in some river.

0:05:060:05:08

Faith, I'm really sorry.

0:05:080:05:10

Faith, why didn't you tell us about Raz?

0:05:100:05:13

I don't have to tell you every single tiny detail of my life.

0:05:130:05:18

Yeah, but this was important!

0:05:180:05:22

I know. All right.

0:05:220:05:24

To be honest, I wasn't exactly proud of Raz

0:05:250:05:28

or some of the things he'd done.

0:05:280:05:29

-I waited and waited!

-I was going to call you.

0:05:290:05:32

Don't lie to me!

0:05:320:05:33

You're my big brother.

0:05:330:05:35

You were meant to take care of me and you ran.

0:05:350:05:38

I'll make it up to you.

0:05:380:05:39

It's too late.

0:05:400:05:41

'Raz kept the truth from Faith and that really hurt her.

0:05:430:05:47

'In the long run, it's better to know the truth,'

0:05:470:05:50

even if it's painful.

0:05:500:05:53

But getting to the truth isn't always easy.

0:05:530:05:56

Sometimes you need to keep asking questions, like Gus.

0:05:560:06:03

He never gave up. He just kept asking and asking.

0:06:070:06:15

-I have a question.

-Go on then, shoot.

-At what?

0:06:150:06:19

Have you come to close us down?

0:06:190:06:20

-Have you come to arrest Tracy?

-'Didn't that get really annoying?'

0:06:200:06:24

Have you come to arrest Liam?

0:06:240:06:27

It did sometimes, but it was really useful,

0:06:270:06:31

like when we had that fire.

0:06:310:06:34

Oh, yeah, the Great Fire of the Dumping Ground - I heard about that.

0:06:340:06:39

Right! Who set off the fire alarm?

0:06:390:06:44

Me!

0:06:440:06:45

Just thought I should let you know that the attic's on fire.

0:06:450:06:48

ALARM BLARES

0:06:480:06:51

So, what happened?

0:06:520:06:53

Well, Dennis tried to blame Harry.

0:06:530:06:57

-Look here.

-What's that?

0:06:580:07:00

Burned out sticks.

0:07:010:07:03

It wasn't my fault.

0:07:050:07:06

Harry, we're not angry, OK?

0:07:070:07:11

We just want to know where you got them from?

0:07:110:07:13

Saffy used to burn them. Did you get them from her room when she left?

0:07:130:07:17

They smell like sapphire.

0:07:170:07:19

OK, he's admitted it.

0:07:190:07:20

I told Dennis it wasn't my fault, but he wouldn't believe me.

0:07:200:07:24

I thought he was going to call the police and they'd put me in jail.

0:07:240:07:27

So Gus set out to discover if Harry was really to blame.

0:07:270:07:31

Gus always had to know the truth.

0:07:310:07:34

Breakfast finished at 8.57am - everyone was present.

0:07:350:07:39

The fire alarm went off at 10.31am.

0:07:390:07:41

So, we need to know where everyone was between nine and half ten.

0:07:410:07:45

8.57am, 10.31am, yeah.

0:07:450:07:48

OK, let's go.

0:07:480:07:50

-I was with Tee.

-Yeah, all morning. Then we phoned Lily.

0:07:500:07:55

I was probably in my bedroom. Who wants to know?

0:07:570:08:01

Who? Me? I was with Frank.

0:08:030:08:06

-Yes.

-What were you doing?

0:08:070:08:09

-We were just talking.

-About what?

0:08:090:08:13

Nothing.

0:08:130:08:15

I was in my room.

0:08:160:08:18

Yes, by myself, the way I like it. Is that illegal or something?

0:08:180:08:22

We were in the attic, then we were in the garden.

0:08:220:08:25

Anyway, as I was saying, I came out when I smelled smoke.

0:08:250:08:28

Then the fire alarm went off. It wasn't my fault.

0:08:300:08:32

'Luckily for Harry, Gus worked it all out.'

0:08:320:08:36

Gus saved me.

0:08:360:08:37

He kept asking questions

0:08:370:08:39

until he found out who really started the fire.

0:08:390:08:42

'And it was...Dennis.

0:08:420:08:45

-'Dennis started the fire himself?!

-Yep.'

0:08:450:08:47

You were on overnight duty.

0:08:470:08:50

Why do you think I've been doing overnights all week?

0:08:500:08:52

And it was raining last night.

0:08:520:08:53

-What do you expect?

-It's been raining all night.

0:08:530:08:56

You couldn't be bothered to go outside,

0:08:560:08:58

so you decided to go up to the attic instead.

0:08:580:09:00

You knew you were safe cos you had taken the batteries

0:09:000:09:03

out of the fire alarm.

0:09:030:09:04

You'd smoked there before.

0:09:040:09:06

You put the cigarette end in the sawdust.

0:09:060:09:08

But you hadn't put it out properly.

0:09:080:09:11

By the morning...

0:09:110:09:12

..it was too late.

0:09:130:09:15

While everyone was blaming Harry, you thought you were safe.

0:09:200:09:23

But then we found the cigarette butts.

0:09:230:09:26

You've got no evidence whatsoever.

0:09:260:09:29

We'll let the police decide that, yeah?

0:09:290:09:31

Or you could...take a seat...

0:09:320:09:35

..and write your letter of resignation.

0:09:370:09:41

So Dennis told all those lies and blamed everything on Harry

0:09:410:09:45

-just to cover up his sneaky fag habit?

-Yes.

0:09:450:09:48

What a snake. He deserved to lose his job.

0:09:490:09:52

He should have just told the truth.

0:09:520:09:57

But people don't always do that, do they, Frank?

0:09:570:10:00

I don't know what you mean.

0:10:020:10:04

I think you do.

0:10:060:10:08

Remember that time we were home alone

0:10:110:10:13

and you went out to buy food with the last of our money?

0:10:130:10:17

Oh, yeah, that time.

0:10:170:10:20

There must be some way of getting cash.

0:10:200:10:24

Frank?

0:10:240:10:25

Bowling?

0:10:260:10:28

Huh?

0:10:280:10:30

Frank, 10p falls machine!

0:10:300:10:33

That's enough for a bag of crisps.

0:10:330:10:35

Forget it.

0:10:350:10:37

We can be heroes.

0:10:390:10:40

Come on.

0:10:420:10:43

Yes. Yes.

0:10:430:10:45

Yes.

0:10:450:10:46

Oh!

0:10:460:10:47

-Mate!

-I've got a system.

0:10:470:10:50

That doesn't work!

0:10:500:10:52

More cash.

0:10:520:10:54

Urg!

0:10:540:10:56

-Come on.

-That's the lot.

0:10:560:10:58

I'll get this one.

0:10:580:11:00

Oh, I can't watch this.

0:11:000:11:02

My system never fails.

0:11:020:11:04

No!

0:11:080:11:10

'What were you thinking? Gambling's a mug's game.

0:11:100:11:13

'Not for me. I've got a system.'

0:11:130:11:17

-No!

-Yes.

0:11:170:11:19

Come on.

0:11:210:11:23

Come on. Come on.

0:11:230:11:25

This is going to work.

0:11:270:11:30

I bet you. I bet you.

0:11:300:11:31

-Oh, I hope so.

-Come on.

0:11:310:11:34

Come on!

0:11:340:11:36

-Come on!

-Yes!

0:11:360:11:39

BOTH: We on! We won!

0:11:390:11:41

I told you.

0:11:410:11:43

'Nice one. Your system actually worked.

0:11:430:11:46

'Yeah...kind of.'

0:11:460:11:49

Where's the money?

0:11:490:11:51

Hey, we've just won the jackpot and no money came out.

0:11:550:12:00

We did win fair and square.

0:12:000:12:01

Congratulations. But winnings over £500 are given in the office,

0:12:010:12:05

so I just need to see some ID.

0:12:050:12:08

ID?

0:12:080:12:09

Something with proof of your age.

0:12:090:12:11

I mean, you have seen the signs, haven't you?

0:12:110:12:15

And you are over 18, aren't you?

0:12:150:12:17

Yes.

0:12:170:12:19

I've just not got any ID on me.

0:12:190:12:21

Well, you better go home and get some then.

0:12:210:12:23

That's not fair. He saw us play. He never stopped us.

0:12:230:12:26

Yeah. Just give us the money.

0:12:260:12:29

I will. I will...as soon as you can prove that you're 18.

0:12:290:12:32

'We were robbed. That man cheated us.

0:12:320:12:35

'Yeah, and you cheated all of us.'

0:12:350:12:38

You've just lost everyone's money.

0:12:380:12:40

Can't we get some ID or forge one?

0:12:420:12:44

They knew I wasn't 18.

0:12:440:12:47

What are we going to tell the others?

0:12:470:12:50

The truth?

0:12:500:12:51

You were mugged?

0:12:510:12:53

BOTH LAUGH

0:12:560:12:59

Why did we lie? Good question.

0:13:090:13:11

Well, we lost everyone's cash, and cos of us the whole

0:13:110:13:16

Dumping Ground was about to starve to death. Why wouldn't we lie?

0:13:160:13:20

Poor guys.

0:13:200:13:23

You actually believe them?

0:13:230:13:24

Why wouldn't I?

0:13:240:13:25

Cos they stole all our money.

0:13:250:13:27

And did what with it?

0:13:270:13:29

Hid it, bought pizzas, I don't know.

0:13:290:13:31

You always see the worst in people, don't you? They're our friends.

0:13:310:13:34

Well, you've only been here five minutes.

0:13:340:13:37

You have a lot to learn.

0:13:390:13:41

It wasn't just us though - Elektra lied too.

0:13:440:13:47

In fact, that's how we got caught.

0:13:470:13:50

Give it up, Tyler.

0:13:500:13:52

Frank has just confessed and we know what you really did with the money.

0:13:520:13:55

It wasn't our fault.

0:13:550:13:57

We won fair and square. How were we supposed to know you had to have ID?

0:13:570:14:01

You won fair and square?

0:14:010:14:03

So you gambled the money?

0:14:030:14:05

Oh, no!

0:14:050:14:08

-What a pair of muppets.

-Harsh!

-But fair.

0:14:080:14:12

Nobody's perfect. Lessons were learned.

0:14:120:14:17

Yeah. The lesson was, never trust Frank and Tyler with your cash.

0:14:170:14:21

They'll gamble it away and tell a massive load of lies to cover it up.

0:14:210:14:25

I meant, we learned to tell the truth.

0:14:250:14:29

I am telling the truth.

0:14:290:14:31

What have we learnt

0:14:330:14:34

so far about truth to upload into the Survival Files?

0:14:340:14:40

Sometimes the truth isn't what it might seem,

0:14:400:14:42

so an experienced care worker turns out to be a coward and a liar.

0:14:420:14:46

And Elektra turns out to be a Mandy.

0:14:460:14:49

And two boys who claim to be mugging victims turn out to be

0:14:490:14:53

complete idiots who've thrown away all our money.

0:14:530:14:55

Sometimes the truth is hard to pin down.

0:14:550:15:00

And that's when loads of made up stuff

0:15:000:15:02

makes its way in to fill up the gap,

0:15:020:15:03

turning someone like Faith into a drug-dealing gang leader

0:15:030:15:07

when that couldn't be further from the truth.

0:15:070:15:09

So, it's good to have someone around who can sort out

0:15:090:15:14

the truth from the lies.

0:15:140:15:17

Because, believe me, sometimes the truth is much stranger than fiction.

0:15:170:15:22

It's hard to be truthful all the time.

0:15:220:15:25

Sometimes it seems like lying just makes life easier,

0:15:250:15:28

whether it's to Mike, your teacher, your friends...

0:15:280:15:32

Or to yourself.

0:15:320:15:33

Why would you lie to yourself?

0:15:350:15:37

Well, there was this girl called Lizanne.

0:15:370:15:42

She was absolutely gorgeous.

0:15:450:15:49

You mean, you fancied her?

0:15:490:15:51

Come on, ten minutes till Dennis kicks us out.

0:15:510:15:53

This won't take long.

0:15:530:15:54

Look, I'm sorry to ask but I really need to borrow some cash.

0:15:540:15:58

-No. You're right, it didn't take long.

-Lee, please.

0:15:580:16:01

Thanks, Frank, I owe you a big one.

0:16:010:16:03

What are you doing? You're meant to be a scammer, not a mark.

0:16:080:16:12

I don't know. Seriously, she's a user, mate. Bad news.

0:16:120:16:15

She's all right.

0:16:150:16:18

'Of course I fancied her...'

0:16:180:16:20

Did I get the smell of smoke out?

0:16:200:16:23

Yeah.

0:16:230:16:24

'..but I wasn't the only one.'

0:16:240:16:26

She sounds like a player.

0:16:270:16:29

You have no idea.

0:16:290:16:32

It's so long since I've had to share - I've forgotten how.

0:16:320:16:35

I mean, what if I touch something of hers by accident?

0:16:350:16:39

Like with another girl's shampoo?

0:16:390:16:42

I know. You could move in with Tee instead, that's my sister.

0:16:420:16:46

That's kind, Johnny, but I don't think I can.

0:16:490:16:52

It's the sharing that's freaking me out.

0:16:520:16:55

Oh... I feel sick.

0:16:570:17:00

I think I'm having a panic attack.

0:17:000:17:03

Tell me about you and Lizanne?

0:17:030:17:06

I was just being nice to the new girl.

0:17:060:17:08

-So you didn't fancy her?

-No.

0:17:080:17:13

-She was hot though.

-Can't say I noticed.

0:17:130:17:16

-You know she fancied you?

-What? Really?

0:17:160:17:18

-Did you get her number? What did she say?

-Ah, got you!

0:17:180:17:22

Oh, really mature.

0:17:220:17:26

I'll be fine...honestly.

0:17:260:17:29

You have my room, Lizanne. I'll move in with Tee.

0:17:320:17:36

Oh, thank you!

0:17:360:17:39

That Lizanne sounds like a right piece of work!

0:17:480:17:52

Yeah, I miss her.

0:17:520:17:54

Boys never learn.

0:17:540:17:56

Sexist!

0:17:560:17:58

Sorry. I meant, Frank never learns.

0:17:580:18:01

Let's talk about Angel...

0:18:040:18:07

the so-called psychic.

0:18:070:18:09

Oh, do we have to?

0:18:090:18:11

I see a tree, an elm tree.

0:18:110:18:16

Elm tree?

0:18:180:18:19

The colour red is important to you.

0:18:200:18:24

Manchester United.

0:18:240:18:27

Very important. I see red playing an important part in your future.

0:18:270:18:32

What else?

0:18:320:18:33

The rest...

0:18:330:18:35

It's not clear.

0:18:350:18:36

You're at a crossroads.

0:18:370:18:39

'She seemed amazing.

0:18:390:18:41

'Yeah, amazingly fake.'

0:18:410:18:43

There's someone else here.

0:18:430:18:44

Who is it?

0:18:460:18:48

Matthew? No.

0:18:480:18:50

Mr Matthews.

0:18:510:18:53

-Granddad?

-Yes.

0:18:530:18:55

Your granddad. He says, "Have you still got it?"

0:18:550:19:00

Got what?

0:19:000:19:02

He gave you a gift...

0:19:020:19:04

to remember him by.

0:19:040:19:06

Oh, the watch. Yeah.

0:19:060:19:07

He's very pleased. He's been worried about you.

0:19:070:19:11

Why?

0:19:110:19:12

Things are changing in your life.

0:19:120:19:15

You're in turmoil.

0:19:150:19:16

Worried about the future.

0:19:180:19:19

I'm working on it.

0:19:190:19:21

He knows.

0:19:210:19:23

He believes in you.

0:19:230:19:25

She was good. She really knew how to play you.

0:19:250:19:29

-You rest and I'll go get you a green tea.

-Thanks, poppet.

0:19:290:19:33

It'll give me the energy for the walk home.

0:19:330:19:36

Can't you get a taxi?

0:19:360:19:38

My pension doesn't stretch to luxuries.

0:19:380:19:40

If it wasn't for Jade here I wouldn't even be able to afford a cup of tea.

0:19:400:19:45

Don't you get paid for reading?

0:19:450:19:47

I don't do this for money.

0:19:470:19:49

Though, of course, people do sometimes give me what they can.

0:19:490:19:52

Here...

0:19:580:20:00

get a taxi...

0:20:000:20:01

on me.

0:20:010:20:03

Bless you.

0:20:030:20:04

'She certainly saw you coming.'

0:20:040:20:05

I wasn't the only one.

0:20:070:20:10

Faith fell for it, too.

0:20:100:20:13

Yeah. Just like Frank wanted to hear from his granddad,

0:20:130:20:16

Faith was desperate to find out the truth about her missing brother.

0:20:160:20:20

She didn't even know whether he was alive or not.

0:20:200:20:22

But you're strong, independent.

0:20:220:20:25

You don't need anybody's help.

0:20:250:20:27

But you're still worried.

0:20:270:20:29

Not for yourself.

0:20:310:20:32

Someone else.

0:20:330:20:34

A loved one that you've lost.

0:20:370:20:40

A woman. No...a man.

0:20:400:20:43

Your father?

0:20:450:20:46

Your...brother?

0:20:480:20:51

You're not to worry, love.

0:20:510:20:52

The spirits are telling me your brother is at peace.

0:20:540:20:57

You mean...?

0:20:570:21:00

He's dead?

0:21:000:21:02

His suffering has ended.

0:21:020:21:04

I guess I thought, deep down, Raz was dead.

0:21:040:21:07

She must have picked up on that.

0:21:070:21:09

It was like she could see into my mind

0:21:090:21:11

and I believed every word she said.

0:21:110:21:13

What a sucker.

0:21:130:21:15

Me, too.

0:21:150:21:16

Why do you think we both fell for it?

0:21:160:21:20

I think her lies were too big.

0:21:210:21:23

I didn't believe anyone could be that crooked.

0:21:230:21:26

Lucky for us, Rick was more cynical.

0:21:260:21:28

Frank told me what was going on.

0:21:280:21:31

Well, it's none of your business.

0:21:310:21:32

Yes, it is. I don't want my mates getting conned.

0:21:320:21:34

-It wasn't a con. Angel knew my name.

-Cos she heard Frank say it.

0:21:340:21:37

Well, she knew I was looking for answers.

0:21:370:21:39

Because you went to a psychic.

0:21:390:21:41

How could you be so sure? You'd never even met Angel.

0:21:410:21:45

Right. You've got to remember, I was brought up by scammers.

0:21:450:21:48

I know all the tricks of the trade.

0:21:480:21:50

Sometimes you don't even have to lie to people,

0:21:500:21:53

you just let people fool themselves.

0:21:530:21:55

It's called cold reading.

0:21:560:21:57

Basically, you make a guess and let the punter fill in the gaps.

0:21:570:22:00

If you're really good, people will tell you their life story

0:22:000:22:04

-and believe that they heard it from you.

-No.

0:22:040:22:06

There's got to be more to it than that.

0:22:060:22:08

Rick made a lot of sense,

0:22:080:22:12

but I didn't want to believe him.

0:22:120:22:15

'So, you put Angel to the test.'

0:22:150:22:17

Do you still have the present he gave you for your birthday?

0:22:170:22:21

-The guitar.

-Yes, the guitar.

0:22:220:22:25

-Tell him I practise every day.

-He knows.

0:22:260:22:29

He loves to hear you play.

0:22:300:22:32

What's his favourite song?

0:22:320:22:34

The one you play most often.

0:22:340:22:36

Angels by Robbie Williams.

0:22:360:22:38

Yes, that's right.

0:22:380:22:40

He says it has a very special meaning.

0:22:400:22:43

We sung it at our sister's wedding.

0:22:450:22:47

He said she looked beautiful and so did you.

0:22:470:22:51

-Liar.

-Frank!

0:22:510:22:52

'Angel was no psychic. She was just a con woman.'

0:22:520:22:56

Because I don't have a sister. I've never played the guitar in my life

0:22:560:22:59

and my brother can't stand Robbie Williams, nor can I.

0:22:590:23:01

I don't think you're talking to my brother.

0:23:010:23:04

I don't think you're talking to anyone.

0:23:040:23:06

We used lies to catch a liar, and she deserved it.

0:23:060:23:09

I can't believe the way she used us.

0:23:090:23:11

Angel told some pretty massive lies.

0:23:110:23:14

What made you believe her?

0:23:140:23:16

I wanted to.

0:23:160:23:18

-Because you missed your granddad.

-Yeah.

0:23:200:23:23

I wanted to believe that he was out there,

0:23:230:23:27

somewhere, but now I know he isn't.

0:23:270:23:31

No, you don't know that for certain.

0:23:310:23:35

'Yeah, there are many things we may never know for certain,

0:23:370:23:41

'but that doesn't mean we shouldn't keep searching for the truth.'

0:23:410:23:45

Sometimes the truth can surprise us,

0:23:450:23:48

so it's important not to jump to conclusions.

0:23:480:23:50

Yeah. You might make a really bad mistake.

0:23:500:23:55

'Like when Tee met Gina's mum.

0:23:590:24:01

'It started off brilliantly. They hit it off straight away.'

0:24:010:24:04

-It's this way, Mrs...

-Call me Hattie.

0:24:080:24:11

-Tee.

-I'd love one.

0:24:110:24:14

Hattie was so sweet. Such a lovely lady, you know.

0:24:140:24:16

I guess she was a bit absent-minded.

0:24:160:24:20

-What did you say your name was again, child?

-Tee.

0:24:200:24:23

I take mine with milk, plenty of sugar.

0:24:230:24:26

And then I heard what Gina was planning. I couldn't believe it.

0:24:260:24:29

It must be a bit of a strain on you and Greg.

0:24:290:24:31

He wants me to put her into a home.

0:24:310:24:33

I know it's hard, but find the right home for her.

0:24:350:24:38

It might be just what she needs.

0:24:380:24:40

She belongs with me.

0:24:430:24:45

I understand that, but you have to think about your wellbeing, too.

0:24:450:24:49

-I can cope.

-You say that...

0:24:490:24:51

I'm not putting my own flesh and blood into a home and that's final.

0:24:510:24:55

You tell him. How could you say something like that?

0:24:550:24:59

-Tee...

-You go on about us being a family

0:24:590:25:00

and now you want Gina to chuck her own mum out?

0:25:000:25:02

It was just so wrong. Hattie's Gina's mum.

0:25:020:25:05

You have to do everything to keep your family together, don't you?

0:25:050:25:09

-I think what Mike actually...

-I know what he meant.

0:25:090:25:13

The problem was, Tee didn't have all the facts.

0:25:130:25:17

So she wasn't seeing the whole picture.

0:25:170:25:20

'Tee didn't realise that Hattie was losing her memory,

0:25:200:25:23

'and Gina was really worried about her.'

0:25:230:25:25

There she is.

0:25:260:25:28

-There you are.

-Queue starts behind me.

0:25:320:25:36

-Hattie.

-How you know my name?

0:25:360:25:39

It's me, Tee.

0:25:390:25:41

-Tee?

-From the Dumping Ground.

0:25:410:25:43

-Everyone's...

-Who is everyone?

0:25:430:25:45

And why are you putting me in some dumping ground?

0:25:450:25:48

-Hattie, please...

-Get away from me!

0:25:480:25:49

Mum, calm down. There's no need to shout.

0:25:490:25:53

Gina?

0:25:530:25:55

Gina?

0:25:560:25:57

Who else would it be?

0:25:570:25:59

Where are we?

0:25:590:26:00

The truth was that Hattie needed proper help.

0:26:000:26:03

Gina loved her, but she couldn't look after her any more.

0:26:030:26:06

'And finding out the truth changed everything.

0:26:060:26:09

'Mike had been right all along.

0:26:090:26:11

'The best and kindest thing was to find a good care home for Hattie.'

0:26:110:26:15

Tee, it's hard for me to say this

0:26:160:26:18

but I know how you feel about what Mike said and how fond you are...

0:26:180:26:22

You're doing the right thing.

0:26:220:26:24

She deserves to be safe, day and night.

0:26:280:26:31

She deserves to live somewhere like here.

0:26:330:26:36

It wasn't an easy thing for Gina to do,

0:26:360:26:39

-but sometimes life isn't easy.

-And that's the truth.

0:26:390:26:43

So, what have we learnt about truth to upload into the Survival Files?

0:26:450:26:51

It's a tricky business, getting to the bottom of things.

0:26:510:26:54

Sorting out the facts from the fiction is hard to

0:26:540:26:57

do for lots of reasons.

0:26:570:26:59

Firstly, some people don't want you to know the truth.

0:26:590:27:04

Whether it's a name you're not keen on,

0:27:040:27:06

or something you've done you don't want others to know about,

0:27:060:27:09

lots of us like to play our cards close to our chest.

0:27:090:27:11

Or sometimes we can kid ourselves about stuff.

0:27:110:27:15

We can all be guilty of wishful thinking,

0:27:150:27:18

when you try to convince yourself that something is true

0:27:180:27:21

when deep down you know it probably isn't.

0:27:210:27:25

And be careful. No-one sees the full picture all the time.

0:27:250:27:30

Appearances can be deceptive.

0:27:300:27:32

It might seem obvious to you that something is true,

0:27:320:27:35

but make sure you have all the facts before jumping to conclusions.

0:27:350:27:39

That's what we've learnt about truth,

0:27:390:27:41

safely uploaded to the Dumping Ground Survival Files.

0:27:410:27:44

Good luck. And remember,

0:27:440:27:48

we've been through all this...

0:27:480:27:51

So that you don't have to.
