0:00:04 > 0:00:08I'm Terry Walker, and this is my scrap yard.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10- Morning, boss!- All right, Coxy!
0:00:10 > 0:00:12- Want a brew?- Cup of tea, please. Happy days.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16'There's profit in every ounce of a scrap car.'
0:00:16 > 0:00:1850 quid, pal!
0:00:18 > 0:00:22I buy 'em, strip 'em, squash 'em and then flog the lot.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25What a good day!
0:00:25 > 0:00:27I started the yard over 20 years ago.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29A few years after, I met Lyndsay, the wife.
0:00:29 > 0:00:35- Don't go spending money!- Can I spend it on you, then?- No problem!
0:00:35 > 0:00:38He just makes money, it's just this knack he's got.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45I 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 like a load of hyenas.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54It's like a circus sometimes.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59You've got to keep laughing cos if you don't, you'll cry.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Move these tyres! Move 'em!
0:01:01 > 0:01:03I won't have the mickey took out of me.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05If they do that, they're history.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07There's more cars to come! Get 'em sorted!
0:01:07 > 0:01:10If they show willing and I can see something in 'em,
0:01:10 > 0:01:12I won't give up on 'em easily.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Can't get a job nowhere else, nowhere else'll have me!
0:01:15 > 0:01:19It's the Metro family, and it's the family that I've created from scratch.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37It's coming to the end of a tough year.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39But with Christmas round the corner,
0:01:39 > 0:01:43business in the biggest scrap yard in the Northwest is finally on the up.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46I can see the lorries coming through with vehicles,
0:01:46 > 0:01:48the engines are rolling out, the iron alloy is rolling out.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50That's all you can ask for really.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Very busy at the yard at the minute.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01It is fair to say, it's running a little bit better now.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03He's been a good boy, for once.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Couldn't be better really. It's a really good end to the year.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Terry and Lyndsay are on a mission to end the year
0:02:10 > 0:02:13with their business in profit and plan for the future.
0:02:13 > 0:02:18I want to see us in ten years' time a lot more relaxed than we are now.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23That's what I want. Maybe, fingers crossed, we will be.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26But Terry has other ideas.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30If I could sell everything, I could retire tomorrow. But I wouldn't.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- Too boring sat at home. I'd feel guilty.- I'd die of guilt.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38Lyndsay has finally got him running the yard the way she wants.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42But will she ever get him to slow down?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Come on, get it shifted!
0:02:58 > 0:02:59It's the week before Christmas,
0:02:59 > 0:03:01and now that things in the yard
0:03:01 > 0:03:05are ticking over nicely, boss Terry has some time on his hands.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11But rather than put his feet up and enjoy the fruits of his labour...
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Come through here, Coxy. Start here!
0:03:13 > 0:03:15..he's branching out.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19We've just took a consignment of salt, 20 tonnes of rock salt
0:03:19 > 0:03:21and 800 snow shovels.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23So we're going to sell it
0:03:23 > 0:03:26for less than half of what it's costing in the big stores.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30He's probably bored. He needs another buzz.
0:03:30 > 0:03:37That is definitely what it is. He's got to be doing something, spending!
0:03:37 > 0:03:43Our Lyndsay said that in the shops, these are between £8-£10 each
0:03:43 > 0:03:46but you can get one today for £5.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49I'll keep me eye on that bank account.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54All this salt and shovels all ready for the bad weather,
0:03:54 > 0:03:56when t'snow comes.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01Now we've bought all this, there won't be no snow!
0:04:01 > 0:04:04It is definitely going to snow soon.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07We've been checking the weather daily.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08Whoa!
0:04:10 > 0:04:14It doesn't matter what it is, if there's a profit in it, it's got to be bought.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18In fact, I could do with another lorry load.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Along with 20 tonnes of salt and 800 snow shovels,
0:04:21 > 0:04:24there's another addition to the yard,
0:04:24 > 0:04:27but this one is less likely to be making them money.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28Right, come on!
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- So you happy to be back then or what?- Yeah, course I am.
0:04:31 > 0:04:36Christmas is only around the corner now, bad boy.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Back with t'family.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Terry has decided to give Boyle one last chance after he was sacked
0:04:42 > 0:04:45for pinching some scrap metal from the yard a few weeks ago.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Lift it and pull it cos you're stuck on t'edge.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50As punishment, Terry's assigned him a tough job -
0:04:50 > 0:04:53to organise engines for an export order,
0:04:53 > 0:04:55under Little Dave's supervision.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57No, this is coming out.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01Oh, yeah. It's got green paint on it.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05You've got to buckle down, mate. Be in every day, don't be late.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08You know, like you was this morning.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Slowly, slowly!
0:05:10 > 0:05:14I think he's rubbed up a lot of people up the wrong way, including me,
0:05:14 > 0:05:16but I'm glad to have Boyle back
0:05:16 > 0:05:20as long as he is here to work and not mess about.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Cos as soon as he starts messing about, I don't want to know.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25It's important, isn't it?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I'm not going to do anything, I've not touched nothing,
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I'm just doing everything he says.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34I'm not a kid now, no more. I'm going to be a good lad now.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42- Right Mr Sandman, here's the money what we agreed on.- It's all there?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Yeah, all there, spend it wisely. - Will do. Use the sand wisely!
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- I printed them myself this morning. - Good man. I made that at t'beach!
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Ha-ha! I'll see you later, pal.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Terry's paid £1,200 for 20 tonnes of salt.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00He wants to sell each bag for £4,
0:06:00 > 0:06:05which means this deal could make him almost three grand profit.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09But he's not going to just sit back and wait for the snow.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Instead, he's already hatching another little plan.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16And he's roping in Natalie, the finance assistant.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Right, I've got an idea that's going to get the banter coming
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- back in the yard.- Come on, then.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23A calendar for Christmas.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28W-W-What do you mean? Just like car parts or something, just parts?
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Or people? - A themed, semi-nude calendar,
0:06:31 > 0:06:34covering our nuptials with car parts.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37So you might dress up in a ra-ra skirt or something like that
0:06:37 > 0:06:41and walk down the yard with just some pit boots on and a hard hat.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- Don't be daft, I'm not being in it. - You don't want to be in it?
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- No, I think it should be just the lads.- But why?
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I'm not being naked. Am I being director?
0:06:51 > 0:06:57That's what I'm here to ask you to do, if you want to spearhead that...
0:06:57 > 0:06:58No worries.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01So I can tell these lads you're doing this and you're wearing this?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Yes.- That's the one.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Are you going to get quite a few of these calendars and sell them?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Maybe, yeah. I'm not paying top dollar for them.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12No, we'll get you a price. I'll buy one of them.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16We'll have one in 'ere!
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Can't wait. I need to organise who's going to be in it first,
0:07:20 > 0:07:23because I don't think many of them are going to be willing
0:07:23 > 0:07:27to take their kit off, without a bit of gentle persuasion.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30Oh, my God.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35He's acting strange...very strange.
0:07:40 > 0:07:45It does sound like one of Terry's ideas because it's out the normal.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Gaz, are you up for getting your kit off?
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Just had me nipple pierced as well!
0:07:50 > 0:07:54Have you? That's a good un'! I swear to God, I did.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57You've got to get on it, it's all about morale boosting!
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Give us a bit of time cos I'll get spray tan on and all that.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05- Get a spray tan, get the nails done. - Get ready cos it's happening.- When?
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Are you putting your name down? - Yeah, yeah!- Thought you would.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Definitely put me down. I'm a team player, me!- Same 'ere!
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Lyndsay is trying to get Terry to think more about their future
0:08:18 > 0:08:21and less about the yard.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26- Hi, Terry, you all right? - Long time no see.- Hi, you all right?
0:08:26 > 0:08:30She's brought him to a plot of land they own to go through designs
0:08:30 > 0:08:33for the luxury five-bedroom house they hope to build there.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- You're about 4,500 square feet. - Big enough, ain't it?- Yeah.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40It's about three times your average executive house.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44That's massive - you've got three-piece suites in there as well.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Obviously, we started off with nothing. Nothing.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52He was on the dole and I had three jobs.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57And to actually complete this and just make...
0:08:57 > 0:08:59That would be Terry's mark in Bolton
0:08:59 > 0:09:03of how well he's done and how he's succeeded.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08"Built in 2014 by Terry Walker." You know, it's good.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13This will be absolutely brilliant when it's done, it'll be beautiful.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17It's a one-off. A bit like us. Ha-ha!
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Thing is, once it's completed,
0:09:19 > 0:09:23you'll have to have time off work to enjoy it, won't you?
0:09:23 > 0:09:27I'm of the opinion that, to have your mind occupied doing something
0:09:27 > 0:09:32is better than to be away from, you know, and be bored.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35You could have your mind occupied, though, there's loads to do.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37There'll be lots to do here as well.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40You've got to enjoy it if you're going to do all this work.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Their dream house will take over two years to build.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Lyndsay's plan to get Terry to slow down will probably take a bit longer.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52We've come a long way from ready-made curtains
0:09:52 > 0:09:55- from Poundstretcher, haven't we? - Yeah.- Ha-ha!
0:09:59 > 0:10:02There's only a few days till Christmas
0:10:02 > 0:10:05and Terry wants to try and shift his consignment of rock salt
0:10:05 > 0:10:07before the end of the year.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10So he's decided to send a few lads out selling it door to door.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Rock salt! Rock salt! Come and get your rock salt!
0:10:13 > 0:10:17It's the perfect opportunity for Boyle to redeem himself.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30We can sell snow to t'Eskimos us, mate.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33We can sell ice to the ice road truckers. Ha-ha!
0:10:33 > 0:10:40Hiya, love, I'm supplying all the schools and nurseries this year with rock salt. Do you need any?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46OK, no problem, thank you. Bye.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52Just wondered if you're interested in buying any rock salt?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54OK, no problem, thank you very much.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Yer terrible, mate! Terrible.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00It's not a promising start.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04But Boyle is undeterred and determined to prove himself.
0:11:04 > 0:11:05Hiya, love,
0:11:05 > 0:11:08I spoke to Tony yesterday about some grit salt.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10I'm dropping it off today.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13That's Bolton Blinds, we still ain't been there. We need to go there.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- We're up at a gym. You know Foggy's gym, the boxing gym?- Yeah?
0:11:16 > 0:11:18He wants some bags and all, mate.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22- How many bags does he want? Ten? - I'm just waiting for his reply now.
0:11:22 > 0:11:23They've yet to sell any,
0:11:23 > 0:11:26but they're already considering a drop in price.
0:11:26 > 0:11:32Ten bags 30 quid. We're just going to have to do that today, deals. Ten bags 30 quid, innit?
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Nice one. Thanks for that.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41You can't beat a breakfast for dinner, can you?
0:11:54 > 0:11:58In the yard, Natalie is also trying the hard sell.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Leave that door open!
0:11:59 > 0:12:01She's recruiting for the calendar,
0:12:01 > 0:12:04but she's up against some tricky customers.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- Alvin?- Yes?
0:12:07 > 0:12:12Have you heard about Terry's calendar?
0:12:12 > 0:12:17You just pick a month, take your kit off, job's a good 'un!
0:12:17 > 0:12:20So, do you want to do it?
0:12:21 > 0:12:25- Hmm. Not really. - What do you mean, no?!
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Rock salt, rock salt, come and get your rock salt.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- Where is this place?- This is a nursery. She's called Claire.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Sounds pretty fit as well, so we might, you know, might be in there,
0:12:37 > 0:12:38numbers and that. Eh?!
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Right, I'll go in and sort the deal out, you know,
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- cos she did speak to me. - Hey, hold on!
0:12:43 > 0:12:47- Hi, is it Claire?- No, it's Sam.- Sam. You all right?- Yeah. There you go.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Right, I'll just give you the 10 bags. Where do you want 'em?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- Er, in there, please.- In that?- Yeah.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54In that, right, I'll put 'em in now.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Right, so it's 10 bags, Lee.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01You give 'em me and I'll put 'em down.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Er, I don't know. One minute. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09All right, thank you very much, Sam. See you later.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Yeah, we aim on making around £500 today, if not more.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- Made our first 30 quid, though, just then, didn't we?- Yeah, first job.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23First job, 30 quid.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26Hiya, love.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Lee? He's in t'truck.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31I just wondered if you wanted any grit salt.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Ten bags for 30 quid or five for 15 quid.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Shall I ask Mike and we might have five? Yeah.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- Five each?- Yeah.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Right, there's your other bag, Sue.
0:13:53 > 0:13:5590... 100 quid.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58So we've sold half a pallet.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01It's 100 quid, it's not a lot, but it's better than nothing.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04He'll still be happy with it.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06- All right, mate, how you doin'? - Whoa! Yes, that'll do.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Do you want it? Do you want it?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11A whole truck all gone.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Nobody's wanting spares, so we've got all those spares...
0:14:13 > 0:14:16We'll give you that at the end of t'day, cos you'll spend it.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19Yeah, I'm dead pleased with him, at the moment,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22but I don't like saying things like that, cos it just tempts fate.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26When you say, "Oh, yeah, I'm dead pleased with him," next minute
0:14:26 > 0:14:29he's doing something wrong, like driving Lee's truck now.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Boyle's been out this morning
0:14:32 > 0:14:35and he's just got a nice little wad on him there, and I thought,
0:14:35 > 0:14:38- "What a good do." - I'll see how long it lasts, eh?
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Yeah, you're very optimistic, aren't you, Lyndsay?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- No, not with Boyley.- No.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Don't worry, we'll give you some money later,
0:14:44 > 0:14:47we've got plenty of money for you in a bit.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49Hi, Lee.
0:14:51 > 0:14:52Hi, Natalie.
0:14:52 > 0:14:57- Right, Terry has just come up with this idea...- Right.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00..of a semi-naked calendar.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04- Right...- So basically you want me to get me kit off,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- get in t'yard and pose.- Yeah.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08- For a calendar.- Yeah.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12- In me home town.- Yeah. - Are you for real?- No, come on.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Oh, my God, listen. I've come here to sell parts, make money,
0:15:15 > 0:15:18not do calendars. Who comes up with these ideas?
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Terry, you know what he's like.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22What month can I put you down for?
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Cos if you just say no, I'll just put you down anyway.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Erm, what's left?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October
0:15:29 > 0:15:31and November and December.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33- I'll be July.- Terry's definitely got to be January.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37You know, he can be on t'front of the cover.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Terry's on another mission to make some quick cash
0:15:40 > 0:15:43before the yard closes for Christmas.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Get stuck into them, get it all cleared.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48He wants to separate out the alloy
0:15:48 > 0:15:52and the metal wheels they've been collecting and then cash them in.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Alloy wheels, ten pound a piece. Roughly.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01All the alloy wheels are mixed in with the steel wheels.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04We've got two skips down there that need filling. Get some money in.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09We used to fill a skip per week with about three tonne in it,
0:16:09 > 0:16:10so that's three grand.
0:16:10 > 0:16:15The metal wheel rims, that's only 150 pound a tonne at the moment.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17But you get seven tonne in there.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20It's about a grand, something like that. 1,500 quid sometimes.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Better than a kick up t'backside.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27But as the day draws to a close
0:16:27 > 0:16:31there's only one topic of conversation.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Dave!
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Listen, marra.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- Are you doing this shoot, you, or what?- What shoot's that, mate?
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- This calendar thing.- Naked? - This is what I'm saying.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Don't forget, these calendars, they're going out
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- round Bolton and Manchester and whatnot.- Are they?
0:16:46 > 0:16:48- We'll be a laughing stock. - Yeah, so I'm not...
0:16:48 > 0:16:52- Got a rep, me, marra, you know what I'm saying?- I have as well, mate. I'm not up for that, mate.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54See you in a bit, marra.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57It's a bit OTT, that, innit? Naked.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Coxy!
0:16:59 > 0:17:02What do you think about this calendar, marra?
0:17:02 > 0:17:05- Just a calendar, innit?- So you going to get all your kit off?- Yeah.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- I don't mind it. - All your kit?- Yeah.- Come on.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Cos you only live once in life so you might as well do what you can.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Oh, yeah, man, yeah, man.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16With just one day to go before the big photoshoot,
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Natalie is worried about the turnout.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Everybody, all the lads, they don't want to do it.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25- It's been a nightmare. - They don't want to do it?- No.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28It's not rocket science. Take a photo with a part in their hand.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31So tomorrow...will be fun.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34You could possibly see me tearing me hair out.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Bloody hell, why do I always get them that's tangled up?
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Oblivious to the problems with the calendar, Terry's at home
0:17:52 > 0:17:55and wrapped up in another idea.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58I've just decided to surprise our Lyndsay.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01She knows I'm up to summat, cos she come before, she said, "Why have you got a cheeky face?
0:18:01 > 0:18:06"You look like you're up to summat." I said, "I'm not, I'm just putting a few lights up."
0:18:06 > 0:18:10But she thinks I've paid 9.99 for 'em,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13so she doesn't realise how many's going up.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Altogether now, I think there's about three and a half thousand bulbs.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23I'm sick of Rudolph.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Oh, my God.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31What you thinking?
0:18:31 > 0:18:35It's like bloody...Santa's grotto!
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Look what we've done for you. - Oh, my God.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- 9.99?- 9.99!
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Flipping hell.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Yeah(!) At plug!
0:18:52 > 0:18:53- You've done a good job.- Yeah.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58I pay this electric bill, you know. Not you!
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- Right, do you like it, then? - It's lovely. - Right, give us a power hug, then.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09It were worthwhile, that, just to get that.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18You know what's appertaining today, don't you?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Yeah, yeah, er...photoshoot, innit?
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Most of the lads are reluctant to take part in Terry's calendar shoot.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26But Boyle is keen to keep in the boss's good books.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29It's all right, I'll get me kecks off.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32- What about young Dave, do you think he'll be up for it?- I don't know.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Your face is looking a bit beetroot.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36I've been on t'sunbeds, ain't I, 12 and a half minutes.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Sure you were only on that sunbed for 12 and a half minutes?
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Yeah. I went on last night for ten as well, though, didn't I?
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Bloody hell. Look like you've got a strawberry on your nose.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- Got some cream for that. - "Got some cream for that"! Ha-ha!
0:19:55 > 0:19:58One by one, the lads are coming round to the idea.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01So you're doing it - what's your pose going to be?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- I ain't got a clue what he wants me to do.- What will you be holding?
0:20:03 > 0:20:04I don't know.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06See, it started off where bottoms were on,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09- then it were half naked, then he goes...fully nude.- Oh, I'm sorry...
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Bottoms, mate...
0:20:11 > 0:20:13For fellas - you only want to see the tops,
0:20:13 > 0:20:14you don't want to see owt else.
0:20:15 > 0:20:19No. I don't. I think they're ugly! Ha-ha!
0:20:21 > 0:20:24This morning, the salt selling has been put to one side
0:20:24 > 0:20:27as the lads concentrate on other priorities.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33Look at 'em.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35What the hell's all that about?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39Is this in preparation for the, um...photo shoot?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Oh, they trying to build their muscles up in two minutes flat?
0:20:42 > 0:20:43Yeah.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45- Ah, he's on it!- He's done it!
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Ah, look at Boyle's lickle muscles, they're coming on, aren't they?
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Yeah.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Look at Coxy!
0:20:54 > 0:20:56He's got his angry face on.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Look. Oosch!
0:20:59 > 0:21:00Yes!
0:21:06 > 0:21:10SHE MOUTHS Y-M-C-A!
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Y-M...!
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Morning, Harry, how you doing?
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Mr Walker, how are you? Bright start today.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Terry's friend Harry, a local press photographer,
0:21:22 > 0:21:24has agreed to help out.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Well, let's crack on then, Harry. We're ready to rock'n'roll.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29- Once they see you do it...- Yeah. - ..they'll all play ball.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32- No worries, mate. - You know, following the gaffer.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33Do you like my socks?
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Nice, them. You're feeling them, aren't you?
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Feeling a bit brisk!
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Bloody hell, I never thought I'd be doing this today.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46At the camera, please.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Head up a bit.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53That's it. Thanks, everyone.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56With the boss leading the way, the rest soon follow suit.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01It's cold!
0:22:01 > 0:22:03I'm not into this, me.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04I'm a shy guy.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Behind that glass.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13With those on, it's not actually going to make it, is it?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15No way am I taking these shorts off.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- And what did I say to you? - I don't know - what did you say?
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- I said I would do it discreetly, so...- Yeah, but it doesn't matter.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22My arse cheeks are not being shown.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26I've got a very bad rash on me bum, and I don't want anyone to see it.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Nobody'll see it.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31- Put your foot there again.- Yeah.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32And bring that in a little bit.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Well, seeing as he weren't up for it this morning,
0:22:34 > 0:22:36he's doing quite well, isn't he?
0:22:37 > 0:22:41It's funny - I was trying to get some fun back into t' place,
0:22:41 > 0:22:45and it's working. Well, it's getting me laughing, anyway!
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Do the pinky!
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Look at that face!
0:22:52 > 0:22:55I've got oil all over me wanger!
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Oh, that were funny.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59That were absolutely hilarious.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01I couldn't even take my shoes off,
0:23:01 > 0:23:03so I've my shoes on with pink boxers...
0:23:03 > 0:23:05over t' back of an engine.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06It's not right, is it?
0:23:06 > 0:23:10- I know! - Good job I love you.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13First thing in the morning, freezing your nuptials off.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17You know - where do you get entertainment like that in a scrap yard?
0:23:20 > 0:23:24At the end of the week, the yard will close for Christmas.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26There's just one more thing to take care of.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Christmas party tonight.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32I'm feeling it, I'm feeling it.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35It's going to be a right good do.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38And, unlike previous years, it's going ahead as planned.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Last year we didn't have enough money to have a Christmas do,
0:23:41 > 0:23:45but this year, because we've done all right,
0:23:45 > 0:23:50we decided to have a Christmas get together with the Metro family.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53The staff do work really, really hard.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55So they deserve to have a lickle party, don't they?
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Our John's come home with this lemony stuff.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Let's just see what this goes on like.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01Ooh...
0:24:05 > 0:24:06Oh, that stings.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10By 'eck, petal, thou looks gorgeous tonight!
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Ooh!
0:24:13 > 0:24:14Come on, come on.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Come on, come on!
0:24:16 > 0:24:18I've not got my coat on yet.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Go and get your coat, then.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40All the staff look smart tonight, you know.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44We're used to seeing them covered in oil from head to foot,
0:24:44 > 0:24:47and they all look really nice.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- Free beer, innit? - He's made up for last year.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54If I'm honest with you, I'm glad to be part of their night.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Whoa, you always win...!
0:24:58 > 0:25:01I've won something for the first time in me life.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04As long as you have a laugh, job's a good 'un.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08Look at that!
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Are all these drinks mine?
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Nice one.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Have you enjoyed yourself tonight?
0:25:34 > 0:25:35I have, yes.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37We're on a winner.
0:25:37 > 0:25:38I am actually...
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- What are you doing with me drink? - I'm drinking it.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- You've had enough. - Yes, I'm really happy...
0:25:43 > 0:25:45with how tonight's gone. Yeah.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51- Love you.- Love you too.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55You need to sort your breath out.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58That's the onions, love. Ha-ha!
0:26:08 > 0:26:12It's the end of a challenging year for scrap yard boss Terry Walker,
0:26:12 > 0:26:16his business partner and wife Lyndsay and their 35 employees.
0:26:18 > 0:26:23Between them, they've salvaged over 6,000 catalytic convertors,
0:26:23 > 0:26:27drained 40,000 litres of petrol, sold 10,000 cars
0:26:27 > 0:26:30and crushed 7,500 tonnes of scrap.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36They've now got 19 tonnes of salt to shift,
0:26:36 > 0:26:38and 200 semi-naked calendars to sell.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- I'm frightened to open it! - Come on.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46THEY LAUGH
0:26:49 > 0:26:53I love this job. I would never see myself doing anything else.
0:26:53 > 0:26:5721 years we've been here. It seems like seven.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Here you are, have a look at that.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01What is it?
0:27:01 > 0:27:03I'm not telling you. Just have a look.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12It's like one big happy family here, to be honest with you.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- Enjoy.- I will. Thank you very much, Deb.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- Yeah!- Go on!- Eh!
0:27:18 > 0:27:20It's a good place to work.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22I love it. I love it, me.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26- Little present for you.- What is it?
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Enjoy.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32He's got nish on!
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Oh, he's a brave boy.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36You've got to have a bit of a screw loose to work here.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Everyone has, you know what I mean?
0:27:39 > 0:27:40Better than anywhere else, anyway.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44I've never had a job anywhere else, actually! Ha-ha!
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Could you actually imagine what this yard would be like
0:27:50 > 0:27:52if your dad did retire?
0:27:52 > 0:27:53It'd be a mess.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55Guys!
0:27:56 > 0:28:00- There you go. - I DO look like a grandad, don't I?
0:28:00 > 0:28:01It's a good calendar, innit?
0:28:01 > 0:28:02Yeah, it's a good 'un, man.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04I personally take me hat off to 'em all.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Cos I wouldn't have done it.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07I'm proud of 'em. It's good.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09I will push him to back off a bit.
0:28:09 > 0:28:14Or else we're going to be here till we're 90, if we live that long.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17I think Lyndsay is the only one who could make him retire -
0:28:17 > 0:28:20or at least slow down.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Metro till I die. That's me, innit?
0:28:23 > 0:28:24You know - you know that.
