Jac and Hannah Barely Legal Drivers

Britain's young drivers are some of the most dangerous in Europe.

Last series, 12 new drivers were let loose on the road...

Oh, my God!

..and millions of us got an instant refresher in road sense.

SHE SCREAMS

Move, mate.

Now, we're back with 12 more newbies.

-Right!

-I can't. The signs say you can't go right.

So buckle up

because each week two new drivers are taking off in a family car.

Oh, that were close!

-CRUNCH!

-And they don't know it

but they will be secretly watched by their parents.

Each rookie roadster will make three trips,

testing every aspect of their driving.

The cars are fitted with state-of-the-art cameras

and a telemetry recorder hidden in the boot

to track their every move.

At the end of it all,

former traffic cop Judith Roberts

and top driving instructor John Lepine

will scrutinise their skills.

-JOHN:

-I do despair, I really do.

And finally, if Judith doesn't like what she sees...

THEY GASP

..she'll be dishing out lessons to target bad habits.

But if the driving is good,

she'll give their parents the cash to buy them a car of their very own.

Tonight's two drivers are as different as sneakers and stilettos.

First up, party boy Jac,

who is about to swap the hotel of Mum and Dad

for student digs.

-Right. Can I go right, here?

-Yeah.

Hot on his wheels is self-confessed fan of the tan

and would-be fashion photographer Hannah.

-He saw me coming and he sped up, like

-BLEEP.

Have these two got the road sense to win a new motor?

No, no, what is he doing?!

Or will they get the hard shoulder from traffic cop Judith?

-That could have been...

-Fatal.

Buckle up, it's Barely Legal Drivers.

This is 19-year-old Jac from Hertfordshire.

Jac lives with mum Lisa and little brothers Cane and Gage.

His parents are divorced but dad Darren lives just around the corner.

MUSIC: "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor" by Arctic Monkeys

Jac's passion is dance.

I want to be performing, like, a backing dancer on X Factor.

Like, going on tour with people.

If someone said to me, "What do you want to do?"

that is what I'd do, straight up now.

His nifty footwork could have been inherited from his dad,

who almost made it as a pro footballer.

When I grew up, it weren't...

Boys didn't dance.

They just played football and sport.

And I always wanted to have a kickabout and play football

and do things like that

but he kept saying he wanted to be a dancer.

But then when I went to see him dance at school...

-The first time, it made you cry, didn't it?

-Yeah, it did.

It really upset me because he was so good and I...

-I'm getting upset now.

-That's all right.

But, yeah, it was good seeing him.

Probably at the start he wanted all of his boys

to be little footballers but,

you know, you can't always get what you want.

Sorry, Dad.

Laptop in...

Jac's about to leave the comforts of home to start a dance degree.

But after a party-hard, binge-drinking gap year,

the training could be a shock.

HE RETCHES

Another rum and Coke and I'll be fine.

And his table manners have gone right out of the window.

Your drunken brother. Jac's party trick,

cat food.

Oh, my God, it's disgusting!

There's often drunken videos of Jac on Facebook the next day.

This is a regular thing with Jac. We're used to it now.

Our unfit Fred Astaire has been driving for six months,

normally in his mum's car.

I've been in the car with Jac loads of times.

It is scary, very scary.

He does think he's invincible.

It's almost like he feels that he's in this little bubble

and there's nothing going to touch him.

But Jac's driving is a huge worry to his mum.

I would like to see how Jac drives my car

because I think we do put so much trust in him

and sort of big him up, that, yeah, he is responsible

but what does he really do?

Hi there, is it possible to speak to Miss Lee?

Just wondering if you had five minutes

to go through some quick questions for some feedback.

20-year-old fashion-obsessed Hannah

lives in Huddersfield with dad Phil, mum Deborah and...

aw-w, kitten Romeo.

She works part-time at a call centre to pay for her make-up addiction.

I love getting nails done.

Also I've just got my eyelash extensions done.

Back of the net!

But there's more to this girl than lashes and lippy.

After getting straight As at school,

Hannah's now doing photography at uni.

I'd say my passion, when it comes to my photography work,

is definitely fashion and beauty.

I like to try and go a bit extreme.

But at home she definitely wears the trousers.

-I mean, we love her to bits but it's hard work.

-Yeah.

And the strain is beginning to show.

I just wore this leotard out on its own in Ibiza.

Like, I'm not one of these angel childs

where they act as good as gold with their mum and dad.

My mum and dad know that, though.

Hannah hasn't driven since the day she passed her driving test

six months ago.

She passed it the first time.

Then I found out she didn't, did she?

She didn't, no! I knew!

She passed it the second time.

But I can't believe you kept that from me!

But there's a reason for Hannah's secrecy.

I can't tell him stuff cos he just annoys me.

If I say, "Oh, yeah, Dad, I failed my test,"

every day of my life it would be, "Ha, you failed. Ha, you failed."

-You would have teased her.

-I wouldn't.

-Yeah, you would!

-I wanted her to pass first time.

-You would've said something.

He'll say, "At least I passed first time,"

I was like, "Shut up, I don't care."

Now she's turned secretive,

Mum and Dad are keen to get a glimpse

of what Hannah is like outside the house.

It would be nice just to see what she's like

when she's not with us.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Jac starts uni next week and soon after that

he'll be leaving home.

All big events in Jac's family are marked by tattoos

and Jac wants to get one of a ship.

So what's the reason for the ship as a tattoo?

So I'm getting it to symbolise the start of the journey,

of, like, uni and dance and stuff.

And then when I'm settled down and done my journey,

I'll get an anchor

to show that I'm settled.

Getting inked is all well and good

but is Jac really ready to leave his mum?

Is there a washing machine there?

I don't know, I haven't asked that.

You haven't asked if there's a washing machine?

Right, Jac, how are you going to move your stuff to uni on Wednesday?

I'm going to drive down in our car.

You're going to drive down in my car?

Yes, Jac, I will let you have my car.

Mum may have rolled over

but there is method to her madness.

Look after it!

For the rest of the week,

she and Dad will be keeping their beadies on Jac

as he takes to the wide open road.

Up in Huddersfield, it's fish-and-chip supper time.

What kind of fish is that? It's massive. Is this a dolphin?!

-Thanks, cheers.

-You're welcome.

-You can wash up.

-I'm not...

-Yeah, you can wash up.

-We bought fish and chips, you can wash up.

-No.

Weekend - having drinks with the girls tomorrow night.

If I'm drinking Friday night, I might not drink Saturday night.

Usually Hannah's hectic social life

relies on Mum and Dad's taxi service.

How are you going to get there?

Don't know!

Well, you can take her.

-Why, is t'football on?

-Yeah, I'll be busy.

There'll be something to do.

But this week it's a little bit different.

I'm going to let you have the car for a week, my car.

Yeah!

-As long as you...

-I've actually been nagging at you for, like, months.

I actually have!

Victory is mine!

This time, it's Mum and Dad who's keeping a secret.

If Hannah's motoring keeps to the straight and narrow,

she could get herself a new set of wheels.

Are you having a good time?

Sorry, sorry.

Uni starts in two days

so just time for Jac to squeeze in one more big blow out -

his best mate Chloe's birthday.

I need to detox, big-time.

HE SHOUTS

The trousers are off.

I'm a caveman

and cavemen wear nothing but their pants.

Cos I'm a naughty caveman.

SHE SCREAMS

Yeah, I saw a move like that in Step Up 2: The Streets.

Not!

I'm dead.

The morning after.

Fame costs and it looks like Jac's paying big-time.

I feel like death.

'He can't actually handle his drink very well.'

Like, when he gets too drunk, he can't control himself.

Like, he doesn't really know what he's doing

and he'll do stupid things that he'll regret the next day.

As a dancer, he can't have a laugh, still, like that.

I think... Yeah, when he gets into uni and into training,

cos it's really intense, his course.

I think when he's doing that, he'll have to eat healthy and everything.

24 hours later and it's the first dance class of term.

But, after the birthday binge, Jac's suffering.

Spat out all that alcohol from the weekend.

I'm late. Today is not a good day.

I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead.

Do you want to open any slower?

I'm not actually 100% sure where I'm going.

Cos I missed the beginning of the warm up,

so I had to sit for the whole hour, watching the class.

Fun, fun, fun.

Jac's getting his own place in a few days.

But with his legendary sense of direction...

he's roping classmate Nishey in to help him find it.

-So do you want to come and see my new house?

-Yes! Let's do it.

-Then I'll give you a lift home...

-Have you got food?

I've got some Monster Munch.

We're finally going to see Jac's driving in action.

He's driving from Middlesex Uni to his student digs.

It's only a mile away down a dual carriageway

in and around suburban streets.

But Jac's not sure in which direction. Nishey?!

Do I need to go left now?

-Right.

-Right? Can I go right here?

-Yeah.

-Can I? No, it says no right turning.

He's right, no right turn.

But what about the pedestrians?

Out the road!

Things are getting tricky now - dual carriageway junction.

Your mum's calling you.

With Nishey, the sat nav and his mum on the phone, Jac pulls a U-ey.

-You sure?

-Yes.

Nice one.

Not really.

There is one thing this boy definitely knows -

when not to turn right.

-I can't go right.

-Here, right!

I can't, those signs mean you can't go right!

Shame he doesn't know what a red sign with a big white line means.

-I'm so dead.

-Go back.

Jac's back on track.

But then almost takes a chunk out of a passing Vauxhall Cavalier.

-It's taken Jac 60 minutes to find his flat.

-This is it, yeah?

That is one mile in an hour.

Right, so this is it.

Nice porch.

It seems like a proper family home, not a student home.

Oh, tune! This is a tune, as well.

Can you imagine, like, this is it?

Now you're here as an independent adult in London.

Shit. I've got to be an adult now, haven't I?

Hard times are coming for you, darling.

That night, Darren and Lisa settle down for a little Jac watching.

Do you fear the worst?

She told me to sit at the front,

because I missed the beginning of the warm-up.

So I had to sit for the whole hour, watching the class.

-You don't seem bothered by that, does he?

-No.

-But that's Jac.

-Late on his first day.

-Out of the road!

-He's nearly killed two people there.

That weren't his fault, though.

Aren't parents forgiving?

-Right!

-I can't, those signs mean you can't go right.

No entry, you doughnut.

Oh, forget what I just said about parents.

He don't know his signs.

I don't think there was anything reckless there with him.

Just lack of concentration.

Lack of concentration?! Understatement.

He pulled a U-ey on a slip road, nearly took out a Cavalier,

and didn't know his signs.

Room for improvement if he wants to get his own set of wheels.

Hannah's got her first proper fashion shoot for

the very appropriately named shop, Pink Cadillac.

And she's finalising the deal.

It's like...scary.

Cos this is like the first one I've done for someone else,

like a client, kind of thing.

PHONE RINGS

-Hello?

-Hi, Claire, it's Hannah.

-Hi, Hannah, you all right?

Yeah, I'm really good, thanks.

With the photos, are you wanting to do anything with them?

Like, put them on your website or...?

-Cos I can give you a copy of them on a CD.

-That would be brilliant.

-Does that link my name back to them, so, it's like...?

-Yeah, definitely.

-All right then. See you, bye.

-OK. Bye!

-Bye!

-Bye!

So, with bezzie mate Siobhan in tow,

Hannah's hitting downtown Huddersfield.

-Oh, my God, I haven't drove in

-BLEEP

-for ever.

But getting to the shops isn't going to be easy.

She'll have to deal with tricky dual carriageways

and a mad one-way system.

It's a big call for anyone, especially for Hannah,

who hasn't driven in the last six months.

I've forgot how to drive!

Oops, stall. Means a hill start.

I've done it again!

It's all coming back to Hannah, till she hits the dual carriageway.

-Oh, can you stop there?

-No, go.

-Friggin' hell, man.

My bum's out there. I can go after...

-Not this one, the one after.

-Yeah.

You go for it, girls.

Loving it, loving it, loving it.

This shoot is a big gig for Hannah.

Getting the right look is all part of it.

Hello.

Yeah, remember the clothes are for the model.

This should be well cute for the shoot.

Siobhan's half woman, half coat hanger.

Yeah, don't mind me, I'll just hold everything.

Glad rags bagged, time to hit the road.

And me?

Nice. One in ten women say driving in the wrong shoes

nearly caused an accident.

Just made it across the lights.

What happens if you go through a red light?

Obviously, if you don't die, but do you get told off?

Right, love you and leave you, I'll see you tonight.

Hannah's driven pretty well,

especially considering it was her first solo outing.

Later, while she's at uni,

Mum and Dad check out her shopping-trip driving.

-Oh, my God, I haven't drove in

-BLEEP

-for ever.

Swearing already.

Oh, she stalled it.

I've done it again.

She's panicking, isn't she? She's panicking.

This should be well cute for the shoot.

She knew what she wanted, didn't she?

What happens if you go through a red light?

Obviously, if you don't die, but do you get told off?

Go through a red light and someone's going through green the other way,

you'll know about it. That's how daft she is.

Oh, I'm really proud, I think she's done well.

She's done all right, she messed up a bit when she couldn't get gears.

-I always put her down, she says, I'm negative.

-Yeah, yeah.

That's why she doesn't tell me anything, she's so secretive,

because she thinks I'll be negative and put her down, I don't know why.

She may have great dress sense, but what about road sense?

Mum's giving Hannah the benefit, but Dad's not 100%.

Jac's back at his mum's, packing up his stuff,

ready for tomorrow's move-out.

Do I take everything in my wardrobe?

Lisa's making sure her boy doesn't starve.

I've been getting him stuff in preparation for him moving out.

Typical student food - pasta, biscuits, beans.

Toilet roll, shot glasses, he wanted to take.

I'll miss him, I'll miss him a lot.

Yeah, it'll be weird not having Jac around.

Actually...

After a tricky start at college,

Jac's cramming in an extra dance class with his mate, Anisha.

-Right, love you.

-Love you.

-See you later.

-Careful, drive careful.

The class Jac's picked is at the legendary Pineapple Studios.

But to get there it's a 27-mile journey

right into the heart of one of the most congested cities in the world.

-I'm not great with directions.

-Nor am I, so we've got to work as a team.

You'd think dancers would know their left from their right.

Jac loves being in the spotlight, but lane-hogging is an offence.

Your career is shutting down.

-BLEEP,

-mate, this man's flashing me.

I'm a safe driver, going slow.

Yeah, going slow in the fast lane.

Oh, that was close! And Jac knows it.

-Who's beeping?

-I don't know. Beep back.

-That is a red light.

Green arrow means straight on, Jac.

You can go.

In the big city, even the pedestrians cut in.

Hmm, courteous.

-What time is it?

-You've got two minutes.

-What?

Jac's lack of direction means he's cutting it fine again.

Hopefully, he won't be sitting out this dance class.

Here we go! Flat back!

And to the leg. Kick, touch the floor.

Bend it. Then straight leg.

Leave it up there.

It's hard. It's good, though. Good piece, isn't it?

-I like it.

-Energy, energy.

You're only as good as your last performance. Are you ready?

Five, six, seven!

Well done. Thank you.

After class and teacher's got some stern words.

What's letting you down at the moment is the technique.

It's about refining your body. You've got to look after it.

And if you have friends that want to go and party hard,

and that stops you dancing, don't do it.

Because you are now shaping your future.

So you've just got to be so, so committed.

It's harsh, but seems fair.

How will Jac take it?

She said you're not bad, you just need to keep working on it.

Yeah, 100%. I think me being at uni now is going to...

I'm in that environment where everyone is thinking the same,

-do you know what I mean?

-Yeah.

-I'm not taking a year out where I've got to push myself.

-No.

I'll be in a class where I'll be, "I've got to go."

Crack it out, keep going, go to the extra classes.

No more going out more than once a week, if that.

-Thing is, I don't go out that much.

-Jac, I love you, you go out.

-No, I don't.

-No, actually...

No, you don't go out. I think, it's when you go out, you just drink.

When you've got nine o'clock classes in the morning,

-you can't be going out, Jac, you've got to stay focused.

-I will.

No Lindsay Lohan.

I'm serious about this. I will prove to people I'm serious about this.

From now on, I am really going to think about,

"Should I drink tonight?"

With new resolve about his future, Jac heads home.

Jac's sure he's now heading in the right direction,

but do Mum and Dad agree with him?

Here we go.

That shook him up. Look, he's gone all funny now, hasn't he?

BEEPING

-Who's beeping?

-Oh.

-I don't know, beep back.

-That's a red light.

You weren't looking at the arrow, Jac.

He looks well out of shape.

-Out of breath, sweating.

-Yeah.

-Terribly.

You can see the way he's breathing.

-It's about refining your body.

-Yeah.

Because you are now shaping your future.

When you've got nine o'clock classes in the morning,

you can't be going out, Jac, you've got to stay focused.

That's what we tell him.

Maybe someone else telling him that might give him

the kick up the backside he needs.

It's disappointing, more than anything.

I should be a lot harder with him with his discipline

and his commitment to dance.

It's like when I played football.

When I was like 16, 17, I played for Watford and Luton Town.

I was an apprentice.

And I never had the commitment which I should have had.

You can't abuse your body.

Cos, really, this is his last chance, isn't it,

to make it as a dancer.

Jac's a bit all over the place.

He's kind enough, but he's also a risk-taker

who doesn't always know where he's going.

Is he a write-off or is there hope?

Deciding that will be ex-traffic cop Judith Roberts.

With 20 years' experience on the job,

when it comes to analysing the footage,

it'll be Judge Judith who gets the final say.

Helping her examine the evidence will be top driving instructor

John Lepine MBE.

-Go right?

-Yeah, turn right here.

No, no!

Crikey. What's he doing?

I think he's turning round, I think he wants to go back the other way.

-What?

-So he's now doing a turn in the road

in the mouth of the junction.

Oh, heavens above, it's all gone a bit pear-shaped.

-Here, right!

-I can't, those signs mean you can't go right.

-No!

-I do despair, I really do.

-BLEEP

-off, mate. This man's flashing me.

I'm a safe driver, going slow.

If you want to be a good driver, going slow, get on the left.

-Ooh!

-And he knows it.

Look at his face. He knows it. But he didn't even slow down.

Don't ram into me!

Really?!

At least he's stopping her from sounding the horn.

And to be fair, this is the bit he does shine on

because he is concerned about people.

He's not aggressive.

Doing a U-turn in the mouth of a dual carriageway...

Yes, that was very dangerous. Nice guy, good attitude, B-awful driver.

I'm quite looking forward to seeing Jac's third journey.

Just to see whether the theme of danger continues

or to see whether or not he has got any ability.

Which direction is Jac heading?

With one journey left, is he going to lose his way again

or is he going to focus and get his driving together?

Up north, and Hannah and Siobhan are getting ready for a big night out.

Whose bright idea was that?

To save cash, they are preloading at home.

I drank it and it came back up! But I took it back again.

-Are you all right?

-Hashtag - feel sick.

And getting Mum to taxi them into town.

I'm too... I can't walk.

Let's go!

Siobhan?

Hashtag - need a hand.

See you later!

These girls are on a mission tonight - to get hammered.

Over to Siobhan for the latest score.

I've done about six tequila shots already tonight.

Fair enough, whatever. This is pretty normal for Hannah, yeah.

Welcome to Hannah's world!

When Hannah spots aspiring model Kirsty,

she flips into pro photographer mode.

Hashtag - result!

Hashtag - more drinks...

Cheers!

Hashtag - messy just got messier.

Hashtag - feel sick.

Siobhan insists on buying tequila shots.

I'm going to kill her because I can't cope with tequila shots.

Bitch! Come here!

Whoa!

-Why are you pulling me?

-I'm not

-BLEEP

-pulling you!

Move over.

Hashtag - home.

Let's hope Hannah recovers in time

for her photoshoot just two days away.

In North London,

Mum and Dad are helping Jac move into his new place.

Not the best, is it?

Once he's got his stuff in his room...

Yeah, it's being on the main road as well. That's...

The cupboards are dirty, Jac! I want to take you back.

Dad is keeping shtoom about the state of the place.

Honestly not an ideal place I'd like him to live,

but I think it's all right. He's a young lad, isn't he?

But it's all a bit too much for Mum.

It's dirty. I don't like it.

It's all dirty.

Leave it there for now, because it stinks of his feet.

HE GRUNTS

-Love you.

-New chapter.

-Love you, mate.

-Love you.

Will Jac be able to keep his focus now he's living on his own?

Love you.

Back in Huddersfield, it's Hannah's fashion shoot

and, just two days after her big night out, she means business.

I need model's clothes, accessories, shoes...

-I have to get a model release form.

-PRINTER WHIRS

I'll get food and drink on the way.

Um...

I think that's it.

First, collect BF Siobhan and then model Kirsty.

Finally, the girls have to negotiate 11 miles

of long and winding roads to the shoot location at Ainley Top.

-Is it that way or that way?

-Oh, yeah, that way.

THEY GASP

-BLEEP

-close!

-Where the

-BLEEP

-is it telling me to go?

First prob, can't find Kirsty's house.

-Shall we pull up somewhere?

-Yeah, I'll speak to her.

Yes! Pulling over to make a call.

Do you want to come down and meet us? A black Peugeot.

They take a break while they wait for Kirsty to find them.

-You're very mean to your mum and dad.

-I'm not mean.

Like, from an outsider's point of view...

All my other friends understand, because they know it's bant.

-If I tell my mum and dad to

-BLEEP

-off, I don't mean it.

If I have a go at them, they'll go, "Oooh!" I won't ever mean anything.

I never hurt them.

-Do you ever say anything nice to them?

-Yeah.

-I've never heard it.

Back on the road and Kirsty is on board with new boots to show off.

And Hannah can't resist a gander.

I've got some like that but yours are probably better

because they'll fit you.

I'll take this one.

-I don't want to go on the motorway cos I'll

-BLEEP

-myself.

You can look that way if you want.

No, not like that, more natural, like.

So it's not put on. Yeah.

Because you've got such a bright red thing on, it'll look good

in contrast to that grey, innit?

Looks like Hannah has finally found something

where she can get everything her own way.

With trusty Siobhan standing by.

Stay there a minute.

-Back at me.

-SHUTTER CLICKS

Look straightforward.

Right, I think that's it. Whoo! Yeah!

After dropping everyone off she returns the car

to its anxious owner.

-The photoshoot went well.

-Oh, good.

-Luckily it didn't rain.

-Muck all over my car!

-Oops!

You shouldn't let me borrow, sir.

The next night, with Hannah out at work,

Mum and Dad get together to watch her second drive.

-How do you think she's gone on?

-Let's see!

HE LAUGHS

Oh, which...?

THEY GASP

She was close, weren't she?

-I don't want to go on the motorway, cos I'll

-BLEEP

-myself.

They're on the motorways there.

-You're very mean to your mum and dad.

-I'm not mean.

-If I tell my mum and dad to

-BLEEP

-off, I don't mean it.

If I have a go at them they'll go,

"Oooh!" I won't ever mean anything to upset them. I never hurt them.

-Do you ever say anything nice to them?

-Yeah.

-I've never heard it.

Yeah, she's right.

Her friends are quite shocked.

No, not like that. More natural, like, so it's not put on.

She knows what she's doing, doesn't she?

Yes, she's telling the model and she's confident.

I can't believe it! She seems really professional, doesn't she?

You know, when you see her at home, how ditzy she is.

-Yeah.

-I don't give her that much praise to her face.

-You probably give praise more.

-All the time.

Just sometimes she throws it back, doesn't she?

I think she did all right in her driving. It were just the stalling.

-The swearing.

-The swearing and the stalling!

-The two Ss.

The two Ss, yeah.

-Yeah, I'm really proud and I can't wait to tell her.

-Mm.

What do our driving jury make of Hannah's skills?

Is she a driving supermodel or a disaster, darling?

Oh, friggin' hell, man!

I'm in the middle of the road here!

That's actually very ambitious for a very new driver.

Quite a busy road to cross, that.

Yeah, and I do like the way she's looking around all the time.

And me.

BOTH: Oh!

-Very good! I'm really...

-Very impressive.

I'm really impressed with that.

Next up, Hannah's second journey.

I'll speak to her.

No, you won't. Don't speak to her.

You see? She's pulling over.

She's going to stop.

-Do you want to come down and meet us?

-Fantastic!

See? She's too good for me, this girl.

Oh, yeah, I've got some like that, but yours are probably better

because they fit you.

Coming downhill, approaching a roundabout, deciding

which lane to be in, I think I'd have looked at the shoes later.

-I don't want to go on the motorway cos I'll

-BLEEP

-myself.

We want her on the motorway because that's safer.

But if she is frightened of it because she had no training

or nobody's taken her out, that's a bad thing.

We want to encourage people to use motorways sensibly.

I was quite impressed with Hannah there.

Clearly, she is a novice driver.

I think that comes out in almost all of her manoeuvres.

She's a bit nervous, she is a bit unpolished,

but she's got all the right attitude and that makes a big difference.

I want to see her settle down and be more confident

on all types of roads, including the motorway.

So, we'll have to wait and see how she does on her third journey.

Despite a lack of experience,

Hannah seems to have got our experts on side.

But will she have done enough to get her own wheels?

She wants the width and length.

-What's that?

-13.5 inches.

-OK, write that down.

Jac's back at his mum's, getting ready for another big life moment -

getting that all-important tat.

The family's tattoo artist of choice is Keith, in Great Yarmouth,

120 miles of tricky A roads and dual carriageways away.

Jac's been heading to the coast every summer since he was a kid.

But, just in case he gets lost, he's roped in mate Chloe...

-I got doughnuts.

-Mm!

..to help with navigation.

I am the worst person with directions.

Well, Chloe, I'm no better.

Again, Jac's a pain when it comes to lanes.

Another last-minute decision.

It says Great Yarmouth.

Great Yarmouth!

Whoo-hoo!

120 miles without a major problem,

and then in the last few feet...

I've got it.

Let's not panic, cos I've got it.

-I know how to park!

-There we go.

At last. They've made it.

Time to get inked.

Hello! Sorry we're late. Roads.

Jac reflects on the brief chance his dad had

to make it as a footballer.

When he was, like, teenager age, he played really well.

He was doing really well,

but he chose to sort of not really focus much on it.

For Jac, the ship will be a reminder to keep his new resolve.

Yeah, I'm getting serious.

The socks are coming up!

After three hours, the inking is done.

Wow.

It is amazing.

Your fanny's out!

CHLOE SHRIEKS

Do you know what, it's better to just go back round.

Jac hasn't noticed it's getting dark.

With no lights, people don't notice him either.

Are you serious?

BLEEP!

Phew! He's finally got his lights on.

Jac may be thinking long-term about his future now,

but he's still making last-minute decisions with his driving.

Has he done enough to convince the experts?

Hello!

Hannah is hooking up with Kirsty to show her

the stills from their shoot.

Soft drinks this time.

-I like that one.

-I like this one, too. The red dress stands out.

This one's quite different because it's a blue sky.

-I think that's my favourite.

-I thought you'd like that one.

On a night out, obviously I only know you from going out

and you're quite ditzy.

I didn't think you had it in you, really.

I don't take myself seriously on nights out.

You normally see me rolling around on the floor.

But when it comes to photography I take it seriously.

Because I want it to be a career, I can't really piss about.

Watch out, Vogue!

Huddersfield's Got Talent!

Fired up, Hannah's off to a big photo exhibition in Liverpool.

Journey three takes Hannah and Siobhan over the Pennines

and down to Liverpool, a distance of 59 miles.

It will be by far the furthest she has driven and, crucially,

this will be her first time ever driving on a motorway.

I'm about to lose my motorway virginity.

I hope it doesn't hurt!

The M62, one of the busiest roads in the UK.

-Is that

-BLEEP

-van going to move over?

You're not moving over? You absolute stupid bastard!

Did I do that wrong, or what?

For the first time ever, Hannah makes a move into the fast lane.

INDISTINCT

Do you want to go faster?

HORN BLARES

Oh, it's getting hairy!

-He saw me coming and he

-BLEEP

-sped up like a

-BLEEP!

-So

-BLEEP!

Just over an hour later the girls rock up in Liverpool.

Liverpool!

We came here on an art trip with school. We came in Year 11.

That's when you decide what you want to do.

And I said to my mum that I wanted to do photography.

Sweet.

Cute, that, innit?

I've come to the place where it all started.

Nice, isn't it?

And you can't go to a museum without hitting the shop, can you?

So good. Beautiful. Look at that.

I'd love to have an exhibition here one day. That's if I get there.

Re-inspired, the girls head back onto the lorry-laden M62.

Hannah picks the perfect moment not to change lanes.

Despite the super-size specs, she doesn't see a thing.

What the...? Is he overtaking me or what? I'm slowing, me.

-What the

-BLEEP

-are you doing in that lane, you absolute

-BLEEP?!

After two careful drives, it's been an unnerving experience on the M62.

Have her scary manoeuvres left her overexposed or will Judith decide

she is developing nicely?

TYRES SCREECH

It's the end of Jac's week of solo driving.

Judgment day, and Judith is on her way to his mum and dad's.

Jac passed his test six months ago,

and he's had the use of a car for about six months.

I would expect, at this stage for him to be quite a competent,

safe driver, but on the contrary,

Jac seems to have forgotten everything that he's been taught.

Hello, you must be Lisa.

-So, how have you been?

-OK.

-Good.

-Bit nervous.

-Oh.

We're going to sit down and look at journey three together.

There's no reason to be in the middle lane.

-It's lane discipline.

-Yeah.

No, this is Great Yarmouth.

He could have come into that lane a bit sooner.

-That's a main concern of mine, is that he's unpredictable.

-Hm.

-Hm.

-MUM:

-No lights!

-No lights. It's dusk, it's raining, it's nasty.

-Definitely.

How'd you feel about that one?

I think he's done well, I just wish he'd concentrate more,

watching that back.

Jac is also on his way home, but he doesn't know about Judge Judith.

Or, it seems, the time.

Come on, Jac. He's always bloody late.

Hello, baby!

The unmistakable sound of Jac.

Hiya!

Hello, Jac. I'm Judith Roberts.

I'm an ex-traffic police officer

and I've been brought in to look at your driving.

-You are joking me!

-How rude, Jac!

Come in here!

-I hate you.

-How are you?

I'm good, how are you?

LAUGHTER

So, Jac, it's my job to look at your driving.

If I feel you would benefit from one-to-one driving tuition,

then that's the route I will go.

If I think you will benefit from having your own car,

that's the other route.

OK?

So, Jac, we're going to watch the compilation of your three journeys.

How do you think you've done?

I don't think I've done anything that's, like...

"He shouldn't be on the road."

So, shall we watch them?

-Can you drive down there?

-Yeah.

We've put ourselves in an area of danger,

not only to yourself but to a vehicle that might turn in, because

they are going to hit you and be chucked back out onto the main road.

-Does that mean you can't go down there?

-Go, go!

-I'm so dead!

-Go back!

-I struggled with this.

-Thing is, I do know that sign.

You've now committed three points.

To me, I'm seeing a theme of lack of concentration.

HORN BLARES

-Tell me about this.

-I was in the wrong lane.

-Hm.

What would have been the sensible thing to do,

bearing in mind it's not great visibility?

-I should have turned around, gone straight and turned around.

-Exactly.

You're diving across two lanes of traffic.

OK, you're signalling,

-but other drivers aren't going to anticipate that.

-Hm.

And one of these days you will come across a driver who says,

"No, you're not pushing in." And you will have a conflict.

In the car is a telemetry box, which monitors your speed.

There was one incident of a few seconds,

which is probably an overtake.

But the rest of it was spot-on.

-I'm very wary of that when I'm driving.

-Yeah, that is really good.

While Judith quizzes Mum and Dad, Jac takes a breather outside.

Massive, massive, massive jolt to the system.

He don't show off when he's in the car.

He don't hammer it around or anything like that.

A car would be really important. It gives you more independence and...

..and I could just do what I want when I want.

It would be different, but he can learn from what he's done.

It's crunch time. Will he get his own wheels?

OK, Jac, it's now down to me to deliver my decision.

You have a great attitude to speed.

Seat belt, no mobile phone, you don't eat and drink.

All these things are really, really good and long may it last.

But you've displayed to me quite dangerous driving.

On this occasion...

..I really don't think that you would benefit from a car.

You haven't shown me that you're aware of how dangerous it is.

I'm proud of you, though, Jac.

You've done a lot better than I thought you would do.

Thank you. I don't know what you want me to say.

Gutted.

I really want to sit with someone telling me how to drive when I've passed my test!

She's done it for 20 years, mate, she does know it all.

She knows what she's talking about.

But her... I'm probably just being biased by saying you should have...

..got the car.

I'm not happy with the outcome of what she said

and I don't really think I'm that bad a driver.

Obviously, she knows best, so...

So, yeah, whatever.

One down, one to go.

Judge Judith is heading to Huddersfield to review Hannah

and her driving.

Will it be more driving lessons or new wheels?

Hannah has a great attitude to driving. She's got great ability.

She needs to have faith in herself.

Mum and Dad are pinning their hopes on Judith.

-Hopefully, Hannah will probably listen to her.

-Yeah.

She doesn't really listen to us, does she?

-We're always wrong and she is always right.

-She'll listen to her.

-Yeah.

That could be her.

-Hello! Judith Roberts.

-Hiya, Judith. Pleased to meet you.

Oooh!

Nervous.

How did the Scouse outing go?

HORN BLARES Oh, shit!

That was her fault, wasn't it?

There was no need for her to do that either.

HE GASPS Oh, my...

She never saw that, did she?

-She's not looking.

-You see?

-There...

-She missed.

She's looked and the door frame has hidden that lorry from her.

-She hasn't even seen it.

-She didn't even know it, did she?

But her passenger has.

She's going to be so shocked when she sees this.

-That could have been...

-Fatal. Fatal. Completely fatal.

God, that were really close, that.

Hannah is signalling.

The lorry shouldn't have been in the right-hand lane.

They are both coming across at sort of the same time

and he hadn't seen her.

-Yeah.

-And that was very close.

Hannah has no idea her mum and dad have been watching her driving.

-I think she'll learn from it, won't she?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Hopefully...

it'll make her a better person, not swear so much.

-Hiya!

-Hi.

Hi.

-What the...?

-Hi, Hannah.

-Do you want to sit down here?

-I don't...

You know this week you've been out with your mates driving round.

We've been watching you as well and your driving.

-No way.

-Yeah.

-I feel sick.

-This is Judith.

-Hi, Hannah.

I've been brought in to have a look at your driving,

to see how well you're doing.

It's down to me to see whether or not

you would benefit from having your own car

or if I thought you would benefit from some additional lessons

to get you used to driving and give you a bit more confidence.

So how do you think you've done?

From an outsider's point of view,

probably what came across was probably too confident, but...

-I don't know what to say. Oh, my God, this is awful.

-Ready?

Oh, my God!

-Oh, my God, I haven't drove in

-BLEEP

-for ever.

SHE LAUGHS

I think the language is perhaps because you're nervous? I'm sure.

You do swear.

Why do you have to swear so much when you're driving?

I don't swear when I'm driving.

If somebody cuts me up or something like that I just sort of smile

and think well, you know.

You want to come down and meet us?

I was very impressed with this. You pulled over to use the phone.

You haven't tried to use the phone while you're driving.

I've been brought up not to do that.

But I wouldn't anyway, I wouldn't risk it.

Journeys one and two, there were lots and lots of good points.

I love the fact that you took your heels off and put trainers on.

But journey three...is, is...

a little bit different.

HORN BLARES

-Shit! He saw me coming in and he

-BLEEP

-sped up, like a

-BLEEP!

-Talk me through that one.

-I saw his car coming.

I thought I had enough time, but obviously I misjudged it.

The fact that you indicated doesn't give you a passage to move.

I know that.

This is horrid.

You look over your shoulder, you haven't seen him.

-He's in the other lane now, isn't he?

-Yeah, and he's moving across.

Did you see that?

-No!

-You didn't even see it?

-You didn't see it?

-That actually really was...

-Oh, God...

-Really close.

-I feel sick.

Oh, God.

-I felt a bit guilty.

-Why?

Because we should have gone out, given you a bit of experience.

We should have gone motorway driving with me or Dad.

We did have a telemetry box in the vehicle which you didn't know about.

I think the most you got to was 69mph on a motorway.

Ooh!

I need to talk to Mum and Dad

to hear what they think should happen, where we should go.

-So do you want to step outside while I talk to them?

-Please!

And you can compose yourself.

All I can think of is all the bad things. I'm not going to be like...

"Oh, yeah, I was amazing!" God, I were bad.

-Don't you think if she had her own car...?

-Yeah, I'd go out with her.

-We'd go out with her to get more experience.

-That's what she needs.

Do you think she'd listen to you?

Definitely, yeah.

Having a car would help my career

because I just get to test out new locations and new cities.

OK, so...

I've talked to Mum and Dad and obviously they've told me

what they would like.

Um... Your whole attitude is very good.

Your third journey, however, let you down hugely.

Because it wasn't just one dangerous manoeuvre,

it was two or three where you could have caused huge motorway pile-ups.

-Mm.

-And I think in this...

..decision of mine, it's been really, really hard, because

-I think you do have the potential to be a really good driver.

-Yeah.

Now for the moment of truth.

-But I don't think you're there yet.

-No.

So what I'm going to do is recommend that you have some bespoke lessons,

-one-to-one.

-OK. OK.

-You'll get there. You will get there.

-Yeah.

-All right. Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

-Thanks a lot.

-Bye.

I don't know what to say.

-I'm just so proud of you.

-Doing your photography, that were really good.

-Your photoshoot, you were really professional at that.

-Yeah.

So...that were good.

So you're going to not swear as much?

You're going to cut down on swearing?

Yeah?

-Yay!

-Yay!

Jac chose not to take up Judith's offer of driving lessons

and for now continues to drive his mum's car.

At a disused airfield, Hannah is back at driving school.

Getting a refresher on car control

and learning how to deal with the hazards of the motorway.

I've learned more than I thought.

I thought I'd come just to be more of a safe driver, but I've actually

come away having learned quite a bit, which is obviously really good.

And the dad who used to doubt his daughter is so impressed with her

drive to succeed that he's trusting her with a car of her very own.

-You can drive us home, can't you?

-Yay! Safely, as well.

-OK, then.

Result all round.

Next time on Barely Legal Drivers -

SCREAMING

THEY GASP

CRUNCH

Oh, my God!

Over a bit! OTHER WAY!

I mean, that was just stupid!

CHEERING

Weeeooow!

I'm not impressed at all.

I'm...dreading this, to be honest with you.

I'd rather be on that one. Whooo!
