0:00:08 > 0:00:10- Morning, boss.- All right, Coxy.

0:00:10 > 0:00:12- D'ya want to brew? - Cup of tea, please.

0:00:12 > 0:00:13Happy days.

0:00:14 > 0:00:16'There's profit in every ounce of a scrapped car.'

0:00:16 > 0:00:1850 quid, pal.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20'I buy 'em. Strip 'em.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23'Squash 'em. And then flog the lot.'

0:00:23 > 0:00:25- What a good day. - HE LAUGHS

0:00:25 > 0:00:28'I started the yard over 20 years ago.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31'A few years after, I met Lyndsay, the wife.'

0:00:31 > 0:00:32Don't go mad spending money!

0:00:32 > 0:00:35- Can I spend it on you, then(?) - Oh, yeah, no problem.

0:00:35 > 0:00:39He just makes money, like... It's just this knack he's got.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45'I do it by employing lads that no-one else will.'

0:00:45 > 0:00:47Individually, they're good lads. They're all right.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50But together, they're just like a load of hyenas.

0:00:50 > 0:00:51LAUGHTER

0:00:52 > 0:00:54It's like a circus sometimes.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56SHOUTING AND LAUGHTER

0:00:56 > 0:00:59You've got to keep laughing, cos if you don't, you'll cry.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Move these tyres! Move 'em!

0:01:02 > 0:01:04'I won't have the mickey took out of me.'

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Do that, they're history.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07There's more cars to come up. Get 'em sorted.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09If they show willing and they've got...

0:01:09 > 0:01:12and I can see something in 'em, I won't give up on them easily.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Can't get a job nowhere else. Nowhere else'll have me.

0:01:15 > 0:01:20It's the Metro family, and it's the family I've created from scratch.

0:01:29 > 0:01:34MUSIC: "Mandolin Concerto in C Major" by Vivaldi

0:01:36 > 0:01:39At their luxury home in Bolton,

0:01:39 > 0:01:41scrap king Terry Walker and his wife Lyndsay

0:01:41 > 0:01:44are taking a welcome break from yard life.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50I'm just making our Lyndsay a glass of wine.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Just got a text message off her, you know, saying...

0:01:55 > 0:01:57"Barman. Wine. I'm ready."

0:01:57 > 0:01:59I'm just cracking her a bottle of Rioja, you know.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02Good evening, gorgeous.

0:02:04 > 0:02:05What d'ya want?

0:02:07 > 0:02:08I got you a drink.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Yeah, no, but you're calling me gorgeous.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15- Cheers.- You're welcome.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17This, now, is absolutely normal.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Lyndsay knows what I want. I know what she wants.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23I just come and chill in my little hovel,

0:02:23 > 0:02:25and Lyndsay chills in her little snug.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28This is my sanctuary to get away from Terry and the yard

0:02:28 > 0:02:32and everything just for a couple of hours a night, if I'm lucky.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36When we sit together, all he does is talk about work.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Sit down.- 'She knew I were boring when we first got married.'

0:02:39 > 0:02:42- HE LAUGHS - You know, so there's no excuse.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45All I know is about cars.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49Terry and Lyndsay have had their ups and downs, but, as they approach

0:02:49 > 0:02:52their 21st anniversary of working together, all is calm.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54No, he's not in the doghouse at the moment.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56He's been really good.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00I don't want to say we've not had an argument for three weeks, cos...

0:03:01 > 0:03:03..we might've...

0:03:03 > 0:03:06We haven't. We've been quite good, actually.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11But running a multimillion pound business is never plain sailing...

0:03:11 > 0:03:15- That's Lyndsay, she wants a drink. - ..especially with Terry at the helm.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23MUSIC: "Pomp and Circumstance March 1" by Elgar

0:03:33 > 0:03:37This is Metro Salvage, the biggest scrap metal yard in the North West.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39- I will do you the full handle... - Yeah.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42..but you're not you're not on about the catch? You don't need the catch?

0:03:42 > 0:03:45I don't know what's happened, but it's been locked,

0:03:45 > 0:03:48and the wife's grabbed hold of it and given a mighty great wrench.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51- The wife? - And it's gone bang. Me wife.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53- Bloody hell, she must be strong! - So it's broke.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55She's that wide and that tall.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- Is she? I wouldn't like to meet her on a dark night.- Neither would I.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01I sleep with her, that's enough! LAUGHTER

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Today, business is slow and, with weekly overheads topping 25 grand,

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Terry is under pressure to bring the customers flooding in.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12- That's right. That's it, both ways. Yeah, yeah.- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16IT expert Layton has suggested boosting their online profile.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19He says we can't put no more posts of engines

0:04:19 > 0:04:22and gearboxes on Facebook, because it's not funny.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26He's saying, like, Facebook is for, like, funny things, quirky things.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30So, Terry's challenged the lads to create a video internet sensation.

0:04:30 > 0:04:31Make a tower of cars, right?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34And see if we can pull one out. What's that game called again?

0:04:34 > 0:04:36- BOTH: Jenga. - Do that. A bit of a Jenga thing.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39And Boyle is keen to be the star of the show.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41For every car he pulls out, you going to give him a tenner?

0:04:41 > 0:04:43- What for? - Cos he's stacked the cars up.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45- Why should this be costing me? - Cos it's a game.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48- Then why don't you give me a tenner?- Yeah, exactly!

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Cos it's not my company. It's his.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52- It's not mine, neither. - Whose is it, then?- Ours.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Fair enough.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56- Well, not yours, whatever happens. - LAUGHTER

0:04:56 > 0:04:59- You ready, Boyle? - Yeah, I'm ready. Are you ready?

0:04:59 > 0:05:03- Yeah, I'm ready.- Go on. - One! Two! Three! Go!

0:05:03 > 0:05:04ENGINE REVS

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Go on! Keep going. Come back!

0:05:09 > 0:05:11TYRES SCREECH

0:05:11 > 0:05:13It's still there. The tower's still there.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20LAUGHTER

0:05:24 > 0:05:26CHEERING

0:05:33 > 0:05:35LAUGHTER CONTINUES

0:05:35 > 0:05:39This video is really just to, like, generate more business.

0:05:39 > 0:05:40You know, keep us on the map.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Car Jenga has given Terry another idea for promoting the yard.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Since we've been here, we've bailed the neck end of two million cars.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59As long as he can get Lyndsay on board.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01At the end of the day, it's a bit quiet at the moment.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04So I was just thinking of doing a few bits of things

0:06:04 > 0:06:06to try and generate a bit more trade and whatnot.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- It's 21 years this year. - 21 year? This year?- Yeah.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13So you could, like, have a big 21st birthday party.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16So, what do you think? Have a do? Right, have karaoke and that?

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Yeah.- So we could call it car-aoke, couldn't we?

0:06:19 > 0:06:20SHE LAUGHS

0:06:20 > 0:06:22So have your open day on a weekend.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Like a Sunday?- Yeah, like a Sunday, I'd say, for that.- Right, Sunday.

0:06:25 > 0:06:26The decision is made.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29'We're having an open day to create public awareness.'

0:06:29 > 0:06:32You know, it's just to remind people that we're still here

0:06:32 > 0:06:34and we're approachable and, you know,

0:06:34 > 0:06:38we've got plenty of cheap car parts on the shelf for 'em.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42MUSIC: "Waltz from Jazz Suite No 2" by Shostakovich

0:06:44 > 0:06:45We need to get this sorted, Michelle,

0:06:45 > 0:06:49cos we need to start, you know, pumping up some business here.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51In the on-site cafe,

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Debs and Michelle also need to bring in new customers.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Like I say, if you just get one or two from these,

0:06:57 > 0:07:00it's one or two extra. It's a bonus, in't it?

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Might get a pay rise, Michelle?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Yeah, I'll believe that when I see it!

0:07:07 > 0:07:11- They've invested in a new menu. - We're just over here.- OK, yeah.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14- And now they need to spread the word to Metro's neighbours.- Hiya.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18- You all right?- Hiya.- Hiya.- I don't know if you know Metro Salvage.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Yeah, they did scrapping for us a few years ago.- Right.- That's it.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25- Yeah, yeah.- Well, we've actually got a cafe inside there.- Right.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27- It's a beautiful cafe. - Just opened?

0:07:27 > 0:07:30- Erm, actually, I've been opened about four or five years.- What?

0:07:30 > 0:07:32- Four of five years?- So you didn't know about it?- No. No. No.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35- They didn't even know we were there. - How bad's that?

0:07:35 > 0:07:38- He said, "Are you up and running?" - We've been running five years!- Yeah!

0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Hiya.- Hiya. Who we speaking to? - Who we speaking to?

0:07:44 > 0:07:47- We do all home-cooked food. - All home-cooked food.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50Yeah, it could be a little bit more attractive, though.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52- That's me.- Oh, is that you? LAUGHTER

0:07:52 > 0:07:55HE GIGGLES NERVOUSLY: Sorry.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Hey, what are you doing?

0:07:59 > 0:08:02- BOTH: Hiya - We're giving out our menus.- Right?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- We're just over here. - All right. Oh, yeah.- Yeah.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06You could shout what you wanted...

0:08:06 > 0:08:07- LAUGHTER - ..couldn't you?

0:08:09 > 0:08:11- Oh, maybe not.- Maybe not.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Bacon butties when they're embalming?- No.- No.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15Come on. Let's get back.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22Terry's ambitious promotional drive has also stepped up a gear.

0:08:22 > 0:08:27Three bottles of helium at £150 a bottle to blow up the blimp.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29I've never had a blimp before. This is the first one.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31It'll be good on the open day, you know.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33It's just something different

0:08:33 > 0:08:35and I've never stopped trying different things.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37I just hope that nobody takes a pot shot at it.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42And with the blimp setting him back a further four grand,

0:08:42 > 0:08:44it's starting to be a costly venture.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47GAS HISSES

0:08:52 > 0:08:55It's good, isn't it? It's nice. Good.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Hold on to that. I was hoping it would be...- Whoa!

0:08:58 > 0:09:00- LAUGHTER - Go on, let go of it.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Oh! Oh, he's off. He's off.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04- I've got it.- You're off in every sense of the word!

0:09:04 > 0:09:06With just a week and a half till the open day,

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Lyndsay's concerned Terry might have overreached himself.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12To me, to you, to me, to you!

0:09:12 > 0:09:16- 'I've never known Terry to organise anything...'- Mum's the word!

0:09:16 > 0:09:20- ..in my life. Never. - MOBILE PHONES BEEP

0:09:20 > 0:09:23He's very good at organising sheds

0:09:23 > 0:09:26and cars out, but nothing else. That's it.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28- OK, now then... - You've got full control!

0:09:28 > 0:09:32'I'm a scrap man, I'm not an event organiser.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34'I'm decent enough at organising the staff,'

0:09:34 > 0:09:38but organising open days? I don't know.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40LAUGHTER

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- Aargh!- Watch out for rope burns!

0:09:43 > 0:09:46'We're all trying to help out best we can, but still trying to help'

0:09:46 > 0:09:49our customers with parts they need. So it's stressful at the minute.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52- All right, that's it. - Go on, you pull on it.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Oh, she's coming, she's coming.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56'I haven't a clue what the arrangements are for the open day.'

0:09:56 > 0:09:58we don't know what we're doing

0:09:58 > 0:10:00and I don't even know what staff's turning up.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04It can say hello to a police helicopter when it comes around.

0:10:07 > 0:10:12MUSIC: "Peter and the Wolf" by Prokofiev

0:10:15 > 0:10:17With a scrap metal empire to run

0:10:17 > 0:10:20and a major promotional event just a week away,

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Terry needs all the staff behind him.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Are you actually doing some work today or what?- Yeah.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30What I've decided to do is give out free umbrellas and free wellies.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32- Oh, yeah?- Yeah, so where can we get some wellies from?

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Are you actually being serious? - Yeah, why?- Who wants free wellies?

0:10:35 > 0:10:38- Kids.- No, they don't. - Of course they do.- Do they heck?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41- Why not?- No, they'd be much happier with a free ice cream.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46But today, there's one notable absentee...

0:10:46 > 0:10:51Boyle. He's made it onto the internet, but not for Car Jenga.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55- How you doing, mate? All right? - Yeah, I've come to chat about Boyle.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57Office manager Ian has found out he's been arrested,

0:10:57 > 0:11:00as the incident was posted on the police website.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04There's something on GMP Police here about Boyle.

0:11:04 > 0:11:05"On Sunday, a male was arrested

0:11:05 > 0:11:08"whilst riding an off-road bike in a dangerous manner.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11"He was initially issued with a warning, but made off

0:11:11 > 0:11:14"and was arrested, after committing several further offences,

0:11:14 > 0:11:17"by officers also riding off-road bikes."

0:11:17 > 0:11:19- So he's been stopped once? - So he's been stopped once.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23He's gone, jumped back on the bike and done one. So they've chased him.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25So he's gone on a chase and eventually they've caught him.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27My understanding is someplace near his house.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30- I'm very disappointed in him, me, I tell you.- Yep, yep.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33He's done himself no favours at all. TERRY SIGHS

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Boyle has worked at the yard since he was 14,

0:11:36 > 0:11:38often testing Terry's patience.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40I haven't given you permission to buy anything.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Everything's got to be through a proper procedure, yeah?

0:11:43 > 0:11:44You crack on and do the job right.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47But he came good last week when he passed his crane test.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Boyle, you managed to get all 15 of them right.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- Yeah!- Yeah! - THEY LAUGH

0:11:54 > 0:11:58With Boyle now facing multiple charges for driving offences,

0:11:58 > 0:11:59it's a blow for Terry.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- All right, Boyle?- All right? - Can I come in, pal?- Yeah, yeah.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Do you want a drink or nowt? - Er, yeah.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20You've got some hard times ahead of you now,

0:12:20 > 0:12:23- you know that, don't you? - Hard times?- Yeah, yeah.

0:12:23 > 0:12:28Very hard times. I don't get it, though, me, why you keep doing it.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32- I don't understand why you just... - I've not been done for ages, have I?

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Well, you've not been caught like, I know,

0:12:34 > 0:12:37but I don't get it, why you just jump on some bike and...

0:12:37 > 0:12:40A couple more lads were out on bikes as well.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42I met them down there.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45So you're going to have a couple of court cases, in't you?

0:12:45 > 0:12:47I think they'll just make an example of you.

0:12:47 > 0:12:51- What do you mean by that? - By sending you to prison.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53- They might just do that.- Mmm.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56You know, just silly, absolutely stupid.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00I don't know, after all that time, you know,

0:13:00 > 0:13:03all that work you've put in to get through your test and,

0:13:03 > 0:13:06you know what I mean, things are plodding on now,

0:13:06 > 0:13:08you actually found a place at the yard, you know...

0:13:08 > 0:13:11where...where you're making some benefit.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14- Mmm.- Now there's a chance we might lose you for six months.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18I don't know.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21You might even be inside for Christmas.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28It's very disappointing where we're at right now today.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Er, all the work we've put into him,

0:13:30 > 0:13:32working with him for the last 2½ years,

0:13:32 > 0:13:36and especially the last six to seven weeks, it's like a backward step.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38It's going to put him right back to where

0:13:38 > 0:13:41he were sort of a couple of years ago, that's my fear.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45Well, Terry's obviously, like, wound up about it, in't he?

0:13:45 > 0:13:49You know what I mean? He's done all that for me and then I've done that.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51I know it's wrong and I shouldn't have done it,

0:13:51 > 0:13:54but I'm sorry for doing it, aren't I? So, I don't know.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59SIRENS WAIL IN THE DISTANCE

0:13:59 > 0:14:02MUSIC: "Carmina Burana" by Carl Orff

0:14:02 > 0:14:05The meeting with Boyle is playing on his mind

0:14:05 > 0:14:07and, in the yard, Terry is feeling the strain.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11You know exactly what you've got to do! Get it done!

0:14:14 > 0:14:17With the open day looming, and a long list of things left to do,

0:14:17 > 0:14:21he's taking his frustrations out on anyone in his path.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24- You're trying to write these while you're driving, aren't you?- No.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26You are, I can tell by your writing.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30- Get your top on! - I'm not a bloody mind-reader.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Why will you not wear a Metro top?

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Two minutes, then you can decide what you're doing with it!

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Tag it up and stack it!

0:14:37 > 0:14:40We're all getting the flak for it. Everyone's getting it in the ear.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Terry's day goes from bad to worse. Away from the cameras,

0:14:46 > 0:14:48he vents his anger on the occupants of the cafe

0:14:48 > 0:14:52and it boils over to a full-blown row with Lyndsay.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54SHOUTING

0:14:58 > 0:15:00- You get your stuff and- BLEEP!

0:15:02 > 0:15:05I'm done, that's me done! Seriously!

0:15:05 > 0:15:07- He's treating staff like- BLEEP!

0:15:07 > 0:15:10- That's it. End of. That's the story. - No people skills, whatsoever.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13It's all up in the air. I mean...

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Terry and Lyndsay are at it, Gemma's upset, everybody's upset.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19'It's just got volatile. I'm going to end up being a lonely old man.'

0:15:19 > 0:15:23That's what I was told. I've got to get my bags packed and get out now.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27'I've never really seen them have a go at each other.'

0:15:27 > 0:15:29They usually keep... If anything's going on,

0:15:29 > 0:15:30they usually keep it at home.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33So it was a surprise to me, that, that it'd gone on at the cafe.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36I heard about it when I come down and I seen, you know,

0:15:36 > 0:15:40Terry quite stressed walking down yard, Lyndsay in cafe quite upset.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43So I'll bring my boxing gloves in tomorrow for them.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47For daughter Gemma, the argument is more than just office gossip.

0:15:47 > 0:15:52My dad lost it. I were crying, Mum were crying, Natalie were crying.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53It was just a bad day.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57I know they have a lot of stress, but I think I just think in my head

0:15:57 > 0:15:59"They'll get through it, they'll get through it."

0:15:59 > 0:16:02If they didn't, then that would bring me to a standstill.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08'I've not had a good day today, to be honest.'

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Lyndsay's really got the hump with me, big time.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14I don't know what'll happen with the open day, mate,

0:16:14 > 0:16:15I really don't, until I speak to them

0:16:15 > 0:16:17and, at the moment, we're not talking.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21I just don't know what to do. I don't even feel like going home.

0:16:22 > 0:16:23It's crazy.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43The following morning, things haven't improved.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44She's not speaking to me.

0:16:44 > 0:16:48She's not slept in the same bedroom as me,

0:16:48 > 0:16:51so, um... I don't know where we're up to. As far as I'm concerned...

0:16:51 > 0:16:55That's another thing she said was, "Get your bags packed and get out."

0:16:56 > 0:17:00But at the end of the day, I've still got to make...

0:17:00 > 0:17:02I always still make Lyndsay's breakfast,

0:17:02 > 0:17:04even though she didn't make me tea.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07It's just one of them things.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14The employees within the yard,

0:17:14 > 0:17:17they saw Lyndsay giving me a good shouting at yesterday.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21So, to me now, it's like they'll be thinking that I'm weak,

0:17:21 > 0:17:25so I'm just going to go in and sort of like see how the land lies.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- WOMEN CHATTER - So, have you paid for that?- Yes.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- All right, our Debs? - Hiya, Terry, you all right?

0:17:35 > 0:17:37- You and Lyndsay all right?- Yeah.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Yeah? Good.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Bin-bagged.- What?- Bin-bagged.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45- You're bin-bagged?- Yeah. - Yeah, but it's only...- Yeah.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48- It's only while it's up in the air at the moment.- It's quiet, you know.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- It's quiet, Debs, quiet, you know? - Is it quiet?- Yeah. Silent movie.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Silent? Silent treatment

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Hiya, Jon, are you all right? VOICE ON PHONE

0:17:57 > 0:17:59All right, you're breaking up.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02I am really, to be honest, pissed off with him

0:18:02 > 0:18:04and I've had enough right at this moment.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09I can't keep tolerating all the stress from work

0:18:09 > 0:18:10and stress here as well.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15It's too much. I'm getting no rest.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- What about Lyndsay, cos she's really upset, in't she?- Yeah, yeah.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21I mean, don't get me wrong, your relationship's like granite.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- It's rock hard, solid, you know? - Well, I'm glad you think that,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- cos it doesn't feel that way to me right now.- Does it not?

0:18:27 > 0:18:31- Everybody goes through blips. - Yeah, it's a blip.- They do.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34LYNDSAY: 'It's hard, innit? There's...'

0:18:34 > 0:18:36It's very complicated. It's not like,

0:18:36 > 0:18:39we own this one house and you have that half

0:18:39 > 0:18:42or, you know, we'll sell it. I'll have half of that.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46It's not like that. It's too complicated.

0:18:46 > 0:18:51But...maybe it's something we have to talk about, I don't know.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55- What, splitting up?- I don't know.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00Maybe.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03MUSIC: "More Than A Heart Can Bear" by Udo Vismann

0:19:14 > 0:19:18On top of everything else, Terry is also trying to support Boyle.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20- Hi.- Hi there, morning. Alex Patterson, Solicitor.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Hi. Terry Walker. - Nice to meet you.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27- Now, as I understand it, there are five charges against you...- Yeah.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31..um, dangerous driving, failure to stop at an accident,

0:19:31 > 0:19:33driving an unregistered off-road Honda,

0:19:33 > 0:19:37driving without a policy of insurance, and no rear brake.

0:19:37 > 0:19:42- Is that correct?- Yeah. - OK, so tell me a bit about yourself.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- Well, I work at Metro Salvage... - What's that?- ..with Terry.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- A scrap yard. - OK, what do you do there?

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- Break cars, you know, strip them down, and stuff, innit?- Yep.

0:19:52 > 0:19:57All in all, he's a good person. it's just that, with... Is it AHD?

0:19:57 > 0:20:00- ADHD?- Yeah.- OK, you've got ADHD? - Yeah.- He has that, so...- OK.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03And do you think, with the right influence, that, you know,

0:20:03 > 0:20:06you can be positive and moving forward with your career and stuff?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Yeah, yeah, yeah. I always think positive,

0:20:08 > 0:20:12- but I just have them, you know, silly days...- Mmm.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14- ..and end up in trouble.- Yeah.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Worst-case scenario, in the Crown Court,

0:20:16 > 0:20:19you're looking at six months custody or a fine.

0:20:21 > 0:20:26I hope that, on the day, he gets a bit of divine intervention

0:20:26 > 0:20:29and he has a bit of luck from the big man upstairs

0:20:29 > 0:20:35and he looks down and says that some of these charges are not valid.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Couple of them, you know. Everybody deserves a chance.

0:20:43 > 0:20:44Boyle won't know his fate

0:20:44 > 0:20:47until the case goes to court in a month's time.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10It's now 25 to one...

0:21:10 > 0:21:14- SHE CHUCKLES - ..and I'll think that,

0:21:14 > 0:21:20out of all the menus that we took round yesterday, we've had one,

0:21:20 > 0:21:23and that's Josh, who comes to us every day.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26I've not seen... I've not had any strangers in.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29There has been one or two. I'm sure there were one in before.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31- He only had a cup of coffee. - Oh, right.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34- But, yeah, it's...- I don't know if I charged him for it.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36- Did he pay you?- No.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Do you know, no wonder I don't earn no money! She forgets to charge 'em!

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Lyndsay is still giving Terry the cold shoulder.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57So he's concentrating on a last-minute publicity push

0:21:57 > 0:21:58for the event.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01Hi, everyone! It's Terry here at Metro Salvage.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03We're trying to raise loads of money for the kids of Bolton.

0:22:03 > 0:22:07It's going to be big, and it's going to be on Sunday the 20th of October.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11Smashing.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14- And that's a wrap. - Super, smashing, great.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21There's two things that are very important to me now.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24That's having a bit of success on the open day,

0:22:24 > 0:22:27but the main thing is, the main priority,

0:22:27 > 0:22:30is to make up with Lindsay and get back on track.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34You know, I'm still working away, but in me mind, I'm thinking...

0:22:34 > 0:22:35you know, I'm fell out with t'wife

0:22:35 > 0:22:38and I don't like being fell out with her but, you know,

0:22:38 > 0:22:40everybody falls out from time to time.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43It's just we fall out a little bit more than others.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46But we always make up in the end, but...

0:22:46 > 0:22:49you often think to yourself, one day we might not.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07It's the morning of the open day.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12So we'll open up. What we'll do first is, erm,

0:23:12 > 0:23:14them two cars, we'll put them here.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19Well, here we go. Spuds are on, hot dogs are on.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22What more can I say? We're organised. Till later!

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Till we run out of everything, cos I've not bought enough.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27I've spent a lot of money, a few hundred.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30A few hundred. So I'm hoping I get a few hundred back.

0:23:30 > 0:23:34If I don't, I'm up the swanny without a paddle. But there you go,

0:23:34 > 0:23:36we just need the masses to come now.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39The multitude.

0:23:48 > 0:23:49Straight up.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Keep going.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Keep... Right, stop. 'Yeah, it's all coming together.'

0:23:54 > 0:23:56One, two, up!

0:23:56 > 0:23:59I'm apprehensive, to be honest, cos it's 21 years,

0:23:59 > 0:24:01we've not done nothing like this before.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04So yeah, I'm apprehensive, but I did sleep last night.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Still not talking to Lindsay.

0:24:06 > 0:24:07You know.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Lyndsay's not sure if she's going to turn up,

0:24:12 > 0:24:15but the yard's 21st birthday means a lot to her.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19I would've personally not done anything else to help him

0:24:19 > 0:24:22after that day. He didn't deserve our help, really.

0:24:22 > 0:24:28But it's everybody else, it's been advertised, radio and everywhere.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30So people are looking forward to it,

0:24:30 > 0:24:33so we've had to carry on, grin and bear it.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39The gates are open and the yard is slowly filling up,

0:24:39 > 0:24:42with what Terry hopes are future customers.

0:24:42 > 0:24:46He's spent ten grand in total, so there's a lot riding on its success.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58LAUGHTER

0:25:00 > 0:25:03I've not come as anybody, just got out of bed.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05This is how I dress every week! HE LAUGHS

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Grr!

0:25:07 > 0:25:10Well, I'm Cleopatra and this is me mate, the Hulk.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12It's just me mate.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14- Aren't you?- Yep.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18The open day gets into full swing

0:25:18 > 0:25:21and over 250 people have turned up to enjoy it.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Although there's still someone missing.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33But finally, she makes an appearance.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Dressed like Cruella de Vil. That's what she's like at home.

0:25:41 > 0:25:45Yes! Hands up! And a wow!

0:25:46 > 0:25:49It's going really well, the rain's held off.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53So that's always good, so there are plenty of people turned up.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54So it's been really good.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Who's next? BUZZ OF CONVERSATION

0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Is there enough chips there? - Yeah, I'll have one or two.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06This'd be fantastic every day, do you know what I mean?

0:26:06 > 0:26:08I'd be able to get my new car in no time.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16After 21 years running the yard,

0:26:16 > 0:26:20Terry mounts the grab and crushes the two millionth car.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24GLASS SMASHES, PEOPLE CHEER

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Round of applause, mate. Round of applause.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40But crushing a car is the easy job.

0:26:42 > 0:26:43Sit down.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Well?

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- How do you think it's gone? - It's been good.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51It's been a good turnout, hasn't it?

0:26:51 > 0:26:53On the whole, though, would you do it again?

0:26:53 > 0:26:55I don't know about that.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58All that hassle that happened,

0:26:58 > 0:27:03can we finally put that to back of us now?

0:27:03 > 0:27:04Not much choice, have I, really?

0:27:04 > 0:27:09Well, I'm sick of e-mailing you from front room to middle room now.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13All right, then, you've got one last chance and that's it.

0:27:13 > 0:27:17- What do you mean, one last chance? - One last chance for your behaviour.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19And that's it. End of.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21- You going to be nice to me from now on?- Yeah.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23That's all right, then.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26- I'm due a power hug, then, aren't I? - No, I'll give you a little cuddle

0:27:26 > 0:27:28- and a power hug later. - SHE LAUGHS

0:27:30 > 0:27:32We're friends now.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Cheers.- Cheers, big ears.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43'It's a funny thing, with me and Lyndsay, cos, when you're married

0:27:43 > 0:27:46'for so long, you start taking people for granted,'

0:27:46 > 0:27:48and sometimes I forget about that with the job.

0:27:48 > 0:27:52So, to make up with Lyndsay has put the icing on the cake for me today.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55She's given me another chance to start from ground zero!

0:27:55 > 0:27:58- HE LAUGHS - Work up!

0:28:00 > 0:28:03- Absolutely brilliant day. - Come on.- Brilliant.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09MUSIC: "La Traviata" by Verdi

0:28:09 > 0:28:12Well, this is the life, isn't it? This is the life.

0:28:13 > 0:28:17The yard's not good when Terry's not around. There's no direction.

0:28:17 > 0:28:21- I've got no option. Coat on. You need to go home, right?- Yeah.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23You'll get paid up to now.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Keep on top of them, or else they won't make no money

0:28:25 > 0:28:27then we'll have no business left.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30I can't take excuses. We're losing money.

0:28:30 > 0:28:33I feel like I want to be there, to step it up.
