0:00:03 > 0:00:07- We don't need a reputation for cheating!- Who cheated?- Jeremy! - Stop! Vicki, stop!

0:00:07 > 0:00:10Go on, soft lad. Give her a kiss.

0:00:10 > 0:00:12- What do you want?!- A confession!

0:00:12 > 0:00:14I want to hear you say it!

0:00:14 > 0:00:17Innocent until proven guilty. And you couldn't prove jack!

0:00:17 > 0:00:20I didn't hit Vicki. She's telling the truth.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23- How did she get the bruise, then? - I hit it on a cupboard.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26I've always found you very attractive.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31- It's you who should be locked up. - You'll pay for what you did.

0:00:47 > 0:00:51'I've been working as a professional carer for five years...

0:00:51 > 0:00:54'Three years...

0:00:54 > 0:00:56'Two years...

0:00:56 > 0:01:01'My last place of employment was an old people's home in Stockport...

0:01:01 > 0:01:06'Was a care home for the elderly in Stockport.'

0:01:12 > 0:01:18What sort of MS do you have? Benign MS?

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Relapsing-remitting MS?

0:01:22 > 0:01:30Secondary progressive MS? Or is it primary progressive MS?

0:01:43 > 0:01:46DOORBELL RINGS

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Hey, I've been practising me chords.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55I'm beginning to sound a bit like Keith Richards. HE LAUGHS

0:01:55 > 0:01:57- What you laughing at?- Is that recording gear?- Yup.

0:01:57 > 0:02:02Our orchestra are recording a piece we've been working on for the parents' evening.

0:02:02 > 0:02:07- I can give your orchestra some oomph if you want.- Oh, yeah? - Like chika-chika-wow-wow!

0:02:07 > 0:02:10HE BEATBOXES

0:02:10 > 0:02:14- No, thanks.- But I can help! I was born to perform.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18I am a prefect, you know?!

0:02:18 > 0:02:21- What are you shouting about, Tariq? - I just wanted to help, sir.

0:02:21 > 0:02:26- They said I can't join the orchestra.- Being able to play an instrument might help.- And can you?

0:02:26 > 0:02:27I do beats really good.

0:02:27 > 0:02:31- Really well.- Give us a go, please!

0:02:31 > 0:02:35How is your percussion section, Mr Wilding?

0:02:35 > 0:02:39- Adequate.- Well, adequate's not good enough for my parents' evening!

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Why don't you give Mr Siddiqui here a chance?

0:02:41 > 0:02:46If his "beats" are half as good as he says they are, then it's a win-win, no?

0:02:51 > 0:02:54There's no way we can have Tariq Siddiqui in our orchestra.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58We're so up against it as it is. I haven't got time to muck about with new arrangements.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02This is a troubled pupil showing a spark of interest in something for the first time.

0:03:02 > 0:03:07- All I ask is that you don't write him off.- I'm not writing him off. I'm just...

0:03:07 > 0:03:13I'm sure a teacher of your quality can handle Tariq. Unless you want to tell me otherwise?

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Brilliant.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25- I've got relapsing-remitting MS.- Right.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29And, as I put in the advert, I need a night carer.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- You'd be free during the day. - Sounds perfect.

0:03:32 > 0:03:36- How long have you been a carer? - Two years.- OK.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41- And your last place of work was the Chantry Hall Nursing Home.- Yeah.

0:03:41 > 0:03:47- I don't know it.- It's a small home, but very...perky.

0:03:47 > 0:03:52Not the old people. They're not perky, they're old. Obviously.

0:03:52 > 0:03:57- Sorry. That came out a bit wrong. - I know what you mean. Don't worry.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Some of the other nurses I interviewed

0:03:59 > 0:04:01made me feel like a patient.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05- They didn't quite get it. You seem different.- Really?

0:04:05 > 0:04:09- That's a good thing.- Well, it sounds like you just need a bit of help.

0:04:09 > 0:04:15Yes. That's it. Jodie, I want you to take the job.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19We'll go on a trial basis, but I have to do this sooner or later.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Oh, God, you're kidding?!

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Oh, sorry. Slightly too much. I'm giddy!

0:04:26 > 0:04:30I'll give your referee a call later today, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33Yeah. I'm sure it will.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45- Hello, gorgeous. - Ha, what you doing?

0:04:45 > 0:04:48- Finn, we can't. Not here. - Why? No-one's looking.

0:04:48 > 0:04:53- What have I said?- Has he taken her back?- Looks like it.- What?!

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Careful, Finn.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02All right, mate. What, you two back together, then?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Yeah. Just a little blip, you know?

0:05:04 > 0:05:09- Just didn't think you'd want to. - It's me and Vick. Solid as a rock.

0:05:09 > 0:05:14- Hold those.- Are you still playing rugby tonight?- I can't, mate.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17- I'm cooking up a treat tonight. - Have you lost your mind?!- No.- Finn.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21Your girlfriend decked you one and you're cooking her a romantic meal?!

0:05:21 > 0:05:25- She's taking you for a mug, Ro. - No, she isn't!- Are you sure, mate?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Mind that for us, yeah?

0:05:38 > 0:05:43- Hiya! You're not going to believe it, I got the job!- You're kidding!

0:05:43 > 0:05:45It's a new start, Phee!

0:05:47 > 0:05:53What are you doing? Oh, stop filming me!

0:05:53 > 0:05:56- How come you've got a new phone? - Ah, I've been saving up.

0:05:56 > 0:06:01- Hold still, I've got to capture this moment in history.- Nice.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06- So what's your mum gonna say? - Mum? Don't know.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- She probably won't notice. - Course she will.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Yeah, maybe when she hasn't got a slave to boss around.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17I could ask my dad if you could come stay with us.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21Have you not been listening at all? I'm going to get paid.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Like, properly. This is my chance.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28But there's just one thing.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30I need you to be a reference for me.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32What do you mean?

0:06:32 > 0:06:37Mia's going to ring you, and I need you to pretend to be my old boss.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40I'll put her number in your phone, so that you know when she rings.

0:06:40 > 0:06:46- You're mad, you are. So what's his name, then?- Mr Joe McGuiness.- Oh.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50- HE PUTS ON A POSH ACCENT - Mr Joe McGuiness.- Will you do it? - All right, then.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57- You're mint, you. - So are you.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Hello, handsome.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Last time I saw you, you were wearing considerably less.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Linda, probably not the best time to talk about it.- Later, then?

0:07:06 > 0:07:10- That's a nice tie. Trying to impress someone?- Linda...

0:07:15 > 0:07:20- Everything you say to me in this room is confidential.- OK.

0:07:20 > 0:07:25- Feeling all right? - No, not really.- OK.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Let's start by you telling me

0:07:27 > 0:07:30a bit about how you'd been feeling in the lead-up.

0:07:30 > 0:07:36- Just stressed, I suppose.- But have you got people to talk to?- No.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Just Ronan.- Have you ever had any counselling before?

0:07:40 > 0:07:44- No. I didn't need it. - Did you think Ronan deserved it?

0:07:44 > 0:07:47What sort of a question is that?!

0:07:47 > 0:07:50I'm just trying to establish the reason why you hit him.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53Well, I don't know why I hit him! It just happened. I freaked out.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57- I just keep getting more and more stressed.- About what?

0:07:57 > 0:08:01About everything! About failing at my work! Having no money!

0:08:01 > 0:08:07- And Ronan...- And if you were to fail at your work?

0:08:07 > 0:08:11- What's the worst that could happen? - I'm not going to fail.

0:08:11 > 0:08:16- Why did I even think this was a good idea?- Vicki.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- Finished your work for Mr Budgen, then?- Yep. All done.- Nice one, son.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Do you want me to have a look at it, before you hand it in?

0:08:24 > 0:08:27- Thanks. But I'm happy with it. - Come on, hand it over.- No.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31- It can't be that bad, you've worked all weekend on it.- No, I haven't. - Come on!

0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Blimey.- Yeah, all right!

0:08:43 > 0:08:47I bet you're looking forward to parents' evening tonight, aren't you, Dad?

0:08:49 > 0:08:53Look, it's going to be all right. Speak to you later.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58Aw, I'm sorry, bro.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Oh, come on.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04What is the point of parents' evening, eh? We dread it.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07The kids dread it. The parents dread it.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10It's just one great big ball of dread.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Have you ever thought about being a motivational speaker?

0:09:13 > 0:09:17- Hello, everyone! Isn't it a beautiful day?- Oh, you look nice.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Someone's dressed to impress tonight.- Mmm, maybe?

0:09:20 > 0:09:25- Either that or someone had a very good weekend?- Morning, all!- Morning.

0:09:25 > 0:09:31All right, all right. I know, parents' evening can seem like a challenge after a long day at work.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34But don't forget you've all got a lot to be proud of.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38I know how hard you've all worked at this and I'm pleased, OK?

0:09:38 > 0:09:41The kids' grades are starting to come through and they're very good.

0:09:41 > 0:09:46Some of you still haven't inputted your grades into the system, mentioning no names, Grantly.

0:09:46 > 0:09:51- Morning.- If I could have them by the morning break, please? - Come on, help Sian out here.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- She's got a particularly busy day ahead.- Well, I'll help.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56It'd be great to have an extra pair of eyes

0:09:56 > 0:10:01- when the outstanding grades come in. - Consider it done. - Thank you, you're a lifesaver.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Um, well, I've got to see Vicki Macdonald.

0:10:03 > 0:10:08- But could you swing by my office in about half an hour?- Sure. Good luck.- Thank you.

0:10:10 > 0:10:15- Sian.- What? - What are Zack's grades looking like?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Not great, but we are still waiting on some subjects.

0:10:18 > 0:10:23- Look, darling, is there anything that you could do?- I'm sorry?

0:10:23 > 0:10:27You know, like with his science grades, you know, maybe bump it up a little bit?

0:10:27 > 0:10:30You told me yourself that his biology coursework looks all right.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34Have you asked any of the other teachers to "bump up" your son's grade?

0:10:34 > 0:10:39Of course not, but he's a fragile kid. I think the scrutiny of tonight might just shatter his confidence.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43Cheating's starting to be a bit of a habit with you, is it?

0:10:43 > 0:10:44Whoa, hang on a minute.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Look, if he's struggling he needs our support!

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Lying is hardly the answer.

0:10:49 > 0:10:54So, I reckon I can move my stuff out of Mum's later when she's not there.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58- Need a bit of muscle?- Hiya. - Oh, Em. Guess what!

0:10:58 > 0:11:00That woman offered me that carer job. I'm moving out!

0:11:00 > 0:11:03You're joking! You've had the interview and everything?

0:11:03 > 0:11:06Yeah, this morning. Oh, Phoenix were great.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- He got me here on time and everything.- Oh, right.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10It's like my perfect job.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Yeah, because looking after some woman with MS every night

0:11:13 > 0:11:16sounds like a right laugh to me. Rock on.

0:11:16 > 0:11:21- It's what she wants to do.- Yeah, all right, who asked you?- Don't worry.

0:11:23 > 0:11:27Right, Chalky, just grab that for me.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Look at this gear, it's well professional.- What's he doing here?

0:11:32 > 0:11:36- None of your business, so shut it. - No, you shut it!- Uh, Tariq,

0:11:36 > 0:11:40- any more of that and you're back out that door.- Even though Mr Byrne says I get a go?

0:11:40 > 0:11:41Get a go at what?

0:11:41 > 0:11:45- Are we being recorded or something? - Right, firstly, guys,

0:11:45 > 0:11:49Tariq is here to help with the percussion section.

0:11:49 > 0:11:53And Simon is here to record the track for us, so it can be played at parents' evening tonight.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56- Nah, you're joking!- That is so sick!- What?

0:11:56 > 0:11:58- So it's like a proper record thingy?- Absolutely.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03- Everyone grab their instruments and gather round in a circle. Come on. - Double time.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Let's run through the piece we've been working on the last few weeks.

0:12:08 > 0:12:13- Right, Phoenix, you're coming in first, OK.- Yeah.- Are we ready?

0:12:14 > 0:12:17OK, five, six, seven, eight.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19THEY START TO PLAY

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Ready?

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Annie?

0:12:30 > 0:12:35- THEY PLAY OUT OF TUNE - Nah, that won't fit in there. - Go, now!

0:12:36 > 0:12:41- Phoenix!- Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, this is wack, man!

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- We're just warming up, Tariq. - Yeah, exactly.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47By tonight it's going to be perfect, isn't it?

0:12:47 > 0:12:51- I wanted to give you this back. - My coursework?

0:12:51 > 0:12:54I could fail you for that, Vicki.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00- SHE SIGHS - Are you going to?

0:13:00 > 0:13:06- If you resubmit, you could claw it back.- Is it that bad?

0:13:06 > 0:13:10There's no getting away from it. You've had a lot on your plate.

0:13:10 > 0:13:15- And your work was bound to suffer. - I don't believe this.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18I'm an A-grade student! You've told me that over and over!

0:13:18 > 0:13:22Yes, and you need to pull something out of the bag and fast.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29- How's the counselling going? - Not great.

0:13:29 > 0:13:34- I walked out.- Vicki!

0:13:36 > 0:13:40I...I think you need some support. Urgently.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45And I want you to know that I'm here. If you need anything at all.

0:13:45 > 0:13:50Thanks. I don't know what good it'll do.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54- It's like I'm destined to mess things up at the moment.- Vicki.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Sorry, I've got to go.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14- Hey, Vicki, is everything all right?- Yeah.

0:14:14 > 0:14:18I wanted to ask you, Lauren needs some help with refreshments at parents' evening.

0:14:18 > 0:14:24- Pouring the tea, nicking the biscuits, that sort of thing.- What?

0:14:24 > 0:14:30- Parents' evening? Refreshments? They need help. Can you do it?- Whatever.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42Ronan!

0:14:44 > 0:14:48- Come on, son.- I've got to go, Vicks. speak later, yeah?

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Yeah.

0:14:53 > 0:14:57OK, luckily for us we've got the whole day to get this right.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00So I think we should record it one part at a time.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04- Sir, me and Rhona wrote some lyrics.- Think it'll make the track sound more interesting.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Um, I don't think we'll have the time, girls.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10Don't you want lyrics? I'll give you vocals.

0:15:10 > 0:15:15- Like I just said, I don't think we have time.- Nah, I'm ready. Simon, switch that mic on.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Testing, testing.

0:15:18 > 0:15:23Right, one, two, one, two, three, four.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. THEY LAUGH

0:15:26 > 0:15:30- D'you want me to split your head open?- Tariq!- No, thanks!

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Yeah, thought so, right. Hush, man, this how it goes.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38- HE RAPS - Prison life was hard, for them man behind them bars.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42- I walked in, I stood tall, I had fights, I didn't fall. - LAUGHING

0:15:42 > 0:15:46Parents didn't call. I did a crime...didn't...

0:15:46 > 0:15:49- No, I did time, did a crime... - Sir, he's crap.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51You should just let us do the singing, seriously.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54- You need to learn some respect, man! - Do I? Yeah?!

0:15:54 > 0:15:58One more comment from any of you, and you're in the cooler. OK, do I make myself clear?

0:15:58 > 0:16:01Right, Tariq, can you go back to the sound desk, please!

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Sir, all I'm saying is why bother even having music if you can't sing over it?

0:16:05 > 0:16:08- Roll out, man.- Yeah. You can stuff your stupid orchestra.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12Girls, no, hang on. Mr Wilding? Why can't we try an arrangement

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- with voices? I know it's not what we've been practising, but...- OK.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21MOBILE RINGS

0:16:21 > 0:16:27- Um, Phoenix! Off!- Sir, my dad had a hospital appointment.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30He said he'd call me to tell me how it went.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34- Do you mind if I call him back? - OK, yeah, I hope he's all right.

0:16:34 > 0:16:40- Can Scout come as well?- Yeah, yeah, fine. Just don't be too long.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43OK, girls, let's hear what you've got.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52Right, OK, just don't do that weird voice you did earlier, yeah?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55PHONE RINGS

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- HE PUTS ON A POSH ACCENT - Hello, is this Mia Willington?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01- Yep. - Hi, there, my name's Joe McGuinness.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04I'm ringing from Chantry Hall Nursing Home?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06- I believe I had a missed call from you?- Yes.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09I didn't know whether I had the right number.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12The voicemail sounded like a school kid, if I'm honest.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16That must have been my son, Phoenix. Erm, he borrowed my phone.

0:17:16 > 0:17:22- He must have changed the voicemail message.- Right. OK, look,

0:17:22 > 0:17:26I just wanted to double-check a reference on Jodie Allen? One of your carers?

0:17:26 > 0:17:30Oh, she's fabulous and I would trust her with my life.

0:17:30 > 0:17:35She's always been particularly great with the handicapped. Must go now. Bye.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38HE HANGS UP

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Eat your heart out, Robert Pattinson!

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Erm, Wilding's coming.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Excuse me? Phoenix, we're ready for you.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00Oh, thank you.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04- I think it might be best if we just split the workload.- OK.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07So if you check the average grade for Year 12 English,

0:18:07 > 0:18:10- I'll crack on with Year 11 science.- Fine.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13Thanks, Linda, I really appreciate it.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15- Oh, it's no problem. - KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Come in.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20- Grantly!- As instructed.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24My assessment data. But if I could have the folder back.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27It's where I keep my betting slips.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31- Joke. - HE LAUGHS

0:18:31 > 0:18:35Uh, thank you for this, but you didn't need to write it all down.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37It's submitted online.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41That, Mrs Diamond, is one of the crimes of the computer age,

0:18:41 > 0:18:44the loss of the art of hand-writing.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46It has been noticed by eminent graphologists that

0:18:46 > 0:18:48I am a particularly elegant scribe,

0:18:48 > 0:18:52so I embrace any opportunity to share my graceful hand with others.

0:18:52 > 0:18:53Enjoy.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59This is going to take us an age.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03- Hello?- Oh, sorry. Miles away.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06Anyone I know? Come on, spill the beans.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10- Oh, God, I can't really say. - Well, you seem happy.

0:19:10 > 0:19:16- Well, it's early days, but yeah, I am.- Good.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21Zack Diamond.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25D. Great.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... #

0:19:29 > 0:19:33Have we got it? Girls, we've got it, thank you.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- # Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. # - Girls, we've got it.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40- # Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. # - Girls, we've got enough! Thank you.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42- Yeah, more than enough. - LAUGHING

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- Oh, shut up!- Cut it out!

0:19:45 > 0:19:48Right, you know that bit. Yeah? Ready to go, yeah?

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- PHONE VIBRATES - It's Mia. Hi, Mia.

0:19:52 > 0:19:59- Jodie, hi.- Everything OK?- Fine, yeah. I just rang to ask you.

0:19:59 > 0:20:04- I spoke to Mr McGuiness.- Oh, great. I hope he gave me a rave review.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05Yeah. He did.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08But there was just something he said that didn't quite fit.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12- What do you mean? - He used the word "handicapped".

0:20:12 > 0:20:14It's just an outdated word.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18No professional I know would use that word these days.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- I also found it slightly offensive.- Oh, yeah, well,

0:20:21 > 0:20:25to be honest with you, he's a bit old-school.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- He wouldn't have meant anything by it.- What was he like as a boss?

0:20:28 > 0:20:33He was always really supportive, a man of his word.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37- Is there anything you'd like doing? - No. It's OK.

0:20:37 > 0:20:43Oh, actually, you could pick up my tablets on your way over tonight. They're at the surgery.

0:20:43 > 0:20:48They're used to people picking them up on my behalf, just give them my name and address.

0:20:48 > 0:20:53- Absolutely no problem at all! See you later!- See you, Jodie. And thanks.

0:20:59 > 0:21:04- I've got a question.- Sure? - Some of the kids are really down on themselves about their grades.

0:21:04 > 0:21:09Vicki Macdonald freaked out just now and maybe I've raised her expectations too much.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13- I'm all for raising their expectations. - What if we interview her?

0:21:13 > 0:21:17Gave her a character assessment, and tried to work out if there are

0:21:17 > 0:21:20any external circumstances affecting her grades.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24Then we could provide extra support, you know, we could allocate

0:21:24 > 0:21:27an aspirational grade, based on what she wants to reach at A-level.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Sure, take some time off lessons this afternoon, reassess.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Most of the teachers have to sit there tonight and talk about "potential",

0:21:34 > 0:21:37- but if we don't have a concrete process...- Sian?

0:21:37 > 0:21:41- Yeah?- I just said that's great. I'll find some cover for you. - What? That's OK?

0:21:41 > 0:21:46- Yes. Of course.- Great. OK.

0:21:46 > 0:21:51- Well, I'll leave you to it. - Uh, Sian?- Yeah?

0:21:51 > 0:21:56Are we OK with what happened last week? With Jez.

0:21:56 > 0:22:02- I was just doing my job. - Yeah, sure. I'd better get on.

0:22:05 > 0:22:09OK, guys, tell you what, let's hear what we've got so far, shall we?

0:22:11 > 0:22:14- Matt?- Rosie!

0:22:14 > 0:22:18Er, we're trying to record a song in here, so will you...

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Sorry. We need to talk about the appointment.

0:22:23 > 0:22:28- Um, will you just take over for a second?- Oh, that's just great!

0:22:29 > 0:22:31What are you doing here?

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Good news, we've been bumped up the waiting list!

0:22:34 > 0:22:37We've got an appointment in half an hour. But, if we leave now...

0:22:37 > 0:22:39- I can't now.- How long have we been planning this?!

0:22:39 > 0:22:44Rosie, I'm teaching! I can't just go! Plus this recording thing we're doing is for tonight.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48- It's parents' evening.- Matt, we've been given the thumbs up.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51We've already paid for the consultation.

0:22:51 > 0:22:55We just need to go in, you do... your business,

0:22:55 > 0:22:59we sign a few forms, and then we're away. Don't bail on me now.

0:22:59 > 0:23:05Come on, please. This is it, now. The day is upon us.

0:23:05 > 0:23:09It'll take twenty minutes. Max. You've got cover, yeah?

0:23:11 > 0:23:16- Everything all right?- Um, yes, absolutely fine. Hi, I'm Rosie.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21- Old friend of Matt's. You are? - Daniel Chalk.- Chalky.- Chalky,

0:23:21 > 0:23:24I just need to steal him for half an hour.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26I really need his sperm, you see.

0:23:26 > 0:23:31- Can't actually believe you just said that.- Yeah, you can.

0:23:31 > 0:23:37- You're trying for a kid?- Yeah. - Ooh, top banana.

0:23:37 > 0:23:42- So, um, can you cover for him? - Look, I can't ask Chalky to cover.

0:23:42 > 0:23:47- Well, I suppose I could.- You see? We're sorted. Come on.- Are you sure?

0:23:47 > 0:23:54- Are you sure? I won't be long, OK? - Yeah. You have a nice, um...time.

0:23:59 > 0:24:00What's Ronan playing at?

0:24:00 > 0:24:03- Sounds like they're trying to sort stuff out.- Why bother?

0:24:03 > 0:24:07It's not like they had a row. She battered him. Now he's going back for more?

0:24:07 > 0:24:12- What, is she hypnotising him as well or something?- You all right, Vick?

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- Look, I'm sorry, I was just.. - Oh, no, carry on.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20- I was just making sure yous was OK. - Yeah, we're fine.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23Not that it's any of your business.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Well, it kind of is, because Ronan's my mate.- Well, he's my boyfriend.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29- You should have thought about that before you went for him. - Don't listen to him.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32You're right, it's none of our business.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Oh, don't worry. I was just leaving anyway.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Now look what you've done!

0:24:39 > 0:24:43- Well handled!- Come on, don't tell me you're siding with her.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45She's got Ronan wrapped around her little finger!

0:24:45 > 0:24:51- You getting fresh with Trudi now, then?- No.- Yeah, what are you doing?

0:24:51 > 0:24:54- Nothing!- Dream on, Finn.

0:24:58 > 0:25:03SHOUTING AND ARGUING

0:25:09 > 0:25:11- QUIET! - THEY STOP TALKING

0:25:18 > 0:25:22Yes, right, well, I'm afraid we're going to have to crack on

0:25:22 > 0:25:29without Mr Wilding. He's had to...pop off. Tariq.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33- Why don't we listen to Shona and Rhona's recording, eh?- Coming up!

0:25:35 > 0:25:37VOICES ARE SPEEDED UP AND DISTORTED

0:25:37 > 0:25:41- LAUGHTER - Thought you needed a bit of help. - Do you think that's funny?

0:25:41 > 0:25:45- Sounds well better, don't it?- Take that effect off the voices, please.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49I need that bloke back, I seem to have deleted it. I'm sorry.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52- Nah, you're lying!- Stop wrecking everything.- Me, wrecking it?

0:25:52 > 0:25:56- They're the ones that shouted me off the mic!- Just stop it!

0:25:58 > 0:26:02Bunch of amateurs. I'm done. Forget this!

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- BELL RINGS - Right, see you all after the break,

0:26:07 > 0:26:10when we'll get the recording finished.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16- You hanging out with me tonight? - I can't.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18I've got to get Mia's pills and then go to work.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21I can't wait to start this job. It's going to be great.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- We could nick off now and pick up the pills?- Yeah, right.

0:26:24 > 0:26:29It's break. We'll be back in time, Mr Wilding's not even here.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- Like you said. You need to keep your new boss sweet.- I don't know.

0:26:33 > 0:26:39- Oh, come on. It'll be a laugh. - All right, then.

0:26:39 > 0:26:43- Where are you going?- Tell you later. Cover for me, yeah?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49- Boo!- Linda.

0:26:49 > 0:26:53- Hey, great initiative Sian's got going on there.- Glad you approve.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Um, do you like Vietnamese food?

0:26:56 > 0:26:59Cos I thought maybe I could rustle something up later.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01Eat with our fingers. Get a bit...messy.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05I've never really gone in for the whole eat-with-your-fingers thing.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07Oh, you're right, all those silly little bowls.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10I do have cutlery too, so, you know.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Look, Linda, I want to be clear.

0:27:20 > 0:27:25What happened on Friday was a one-off between two consenting adults.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28But we crossed a line.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30Never to be repeated.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32All right?

0:27:32 > 0:27:34Yeah. I suppose.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36You know me.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39It wouldn't work.

0:27:39 > 0:27:44- Of course. Yeah. Fine. - So, we're OK?- Sure.

0:28:04 > 0:28:08Tariq, you going to come back in, or what?

0:28:08 > 0:28:10What for? No-one wants my rhymes.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12You've done nothing but sneer at everyone.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15What did you expect when you got up, eh? Wild applause?

0:28:15 > 0:28:18- "I heart Tariq" banners?- No. Just wanted to make music. That's all.

0:28:18 > 0:28:22But the orchestra's about the final sound.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26I mean, ideally you don't want to turn it into a chorus of gremlins.

0:28:26 > 0:28:31Hey, it's not funny. Look I might be an old duffer who knows nothing.

0:28:31 > 0:28:34But from what I heard, you sounded all right.

0:28:34 > 0:28:37It's a tough crowd in there, don't let them put you off.

0:28:37 > 0:28:39In fact, if it hadn't been so disruptive,

0:28:39 > 0:28:46- I was going to ask you, you know, how you did that thing. on the voices.- Weren't that difficult.

0:28:46 > 0:28:52You going to come back in or what? I've got a song to write in... four hours.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56Hmmm. I could really do with your help.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04- Right, here we are, then.- Yup.

0:29:04 > 0:29:08- The "love nest".- Could do with a few candles, couldn't it?

0:29:08 > 0:29:10Glass of wine would go down a treat.

0:29:10 > 0:29:14- Yeah, how drunk were we when we had this idea?- Remarkably.

0:29:16 > 0:29:20- It'll be great.- Yeah, yeah, hope so.

0:29:35 > 0:29:39- Rosie, is this us?- What do you mean?

0:29:39 > 0:29:43I woke up this morning, worrying about speakers and sound desks.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46And now we're sat here, about to be parents.

0:29:46 > 0:29:51Before you know it, we're going to be arguing over who helps

0:29:51 > 0:29:55with the English homework, and pottering off to parents' evening.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58- It's just really messing with my head.- Matt.

0:29:58 > 0:30:01We've gone through it all.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04- Mr Wilding.- Yeah.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07Anyway, you were the one who said my baby - our baby -

0:30:07 > 0:30:11should know its dad.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17Yeah. Yeah, you're right. OK, sorry, here goes.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23So we have Mercury! Venus!

0:30:23 > 0:30:25Earth! Mars!

0:30:25 > 0:30:28Come on, up you come. Jupiter!

0:30:28 > 0:30:32Saturn! Uranus! Neptune!

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Come on, planets are quick, you're quick planets! Very good.

0:30:35 > 0:30:40Right, imagine that the playground here is our galaxy, only smaller.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42Stand in relation to the sun and in a minute

0:30:42 > 0:30:46we'll work out the relative distance between all the planets.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49I need someone to be the sun. Zack?

0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Where would you be, do you think? Which end is hotter?- Mercury.

0:30:52 > 0:30:56Brilliant, well done. So, we have Sun, Mercury.

0:30:56 > 0:31:02- And after Mercury comes Venus. - Uh, Mr Byrne, can I steal Zack for a moment, please?

0:31:02 > 0:31:06Well, that'd be tricky. We'll lose all of our light and heat, won't we?

0:31:06 > 0:31:09But we'll manage. Off you go, Sunshine.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12Don't worry, Zack, you're not in trouble, OK?

0:31:12 > 0:31:15- I didn't mean you had to cover for me.- Are you joking?

0:31:15 > 0:31:20I love this, should be doing it more often. OK, now, where did we get?

0:31:20 > 0:31:25We got as far as Mars, but hold on a minute, back to relative distances. If Neptune is down the end here.

0:31:28 > 0:31:32- Done and dusted. As they say.- Great.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35- Right, I'd better get back to school.- Please stay.

0:31:35 > 0:31:40At least until I go in. I feel a bit sick.

0:31:40 > 0:31:45- It's nerves. Sweaty palms. - OK. Of course.

0:31:49 > 0:31:54- Matt, are you all right?- Yeah. Yeah.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57We'll be fine.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00See? It's not all doom and gloom, is it?

0:32:00 > 0:32:05Nobody expects GCSE standard just yet. And your Dad is really proud you're trying, we both are.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09Will you tell Dad tonight that you reckon I could get a B in science?

0:32:09 > 0:32:15- Yeah, of course, I think he'd rather hear it from you. Come on, off you go.- Hey, sorry.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17I just need to grab some stuff,

0:32:17 > 0:32:22I still haven't set things up in the hall properly. I need to work on my time management.

0:32:22 > 0:32:25- I've left it all a bit late. - Is there anything I can do?- No.

0:32:25 > 0:32:29You've got enough on your plate. I've been thinking about Vicki.

0:32:29 > 0:32:34- I'll have a word with Ronan. Get his take on it.- Are you sure you've got time?- I'll have to make time.

0:32:34 > 0:32:38Otherwise I'm not doing my job properly.

0:32:38 > 0:32:43All right? You're joking! Phoenix is cool, and funny and daring.

0:32:43 > 0:32:47He's really kind too, he offered me a place to stay, if I need it!

0:32:47 > 0:32:50- Oh, my God, you're so into him. - No!

0:32:50 > 0:32:53Yeah, all right!

0:32:53 > 0:32:58- He's not really my type. We can all be daring.- Oi, give it back!

0:32:58 > 0:33:00- What do they do? - Em, they're prescription drugs.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03For the treatment of anxiety, insomnia and muscle spasms.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07- That's Mia's medicine!- Go on. It'll be a laugh. We can hang out.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09- Get wasted.- Em, no!

0:33:09 > 0:33:13- Oi! What are you two doing? - We just...popped out.

0:33:13 > 0:33:18- Yeah. Popped.- You're supposed to be in class! What's going on?

0:33:18 > 0:33:22- All due respect, sir, you're supposed to be in class too. - Right, get inside, both of you. Now.

0:33:24 > 0:33:28- Are you mad?- Chill out. It's just a laugh.

0:33:30 > 0:33:35- FROM THE CANTEEN:- Get your hands off me. Cut it out, mate! - LAUGHING

0:33:37 > 0:33:39All right, you lot.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43- I though Vicki was supposed to be helping you?- I haven't seen her.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45I thought you said you didn't want her to help.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49- Ronan?- We're not joined at the hip. She don't have to know me every move.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52But you are keeping an eye on her, aren't you?

0:33:52 > 0:33:55She just needs a bit of help at the moment

0:33:55 > 0:33:58from the people that love her, and, in case you've forgotten, that'd be you.

0:34:00 > 0:34:06OK, we're doing great, but we haven't put the guitars on yet or the bass or the trumpets, flute.

0:34:06 > 0:34:11- Hey, what's going on? I just found these two out the front.- Oh, great!

0:34:11 > 0:34:15- You've been practising, all this time?- No, they haven't.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18- They've been skiving. - I was told they had to practise.

0:34:18 > 0:34:22OK, Em, you're just in time to record your flute part.

0:34:22 > 0:34:27- Let's get cracking! Clock's ticking. - You should have thought about that before you took off!

0:34:27 > 0:34:29Yeah, thank you, Rhona!

0:34:32 > 0:34:33OK.

0:34:38 > 0:34:42- THEY LAUGH - Hey, cut it out.

0:34:42 > 0:34:43Cut it out.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45- What's she on about? - She's taking the mick.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49- You know what, we don't even need a flute. - I'll be the judge of that, yeah?

0:34:54 > 0:34:57Em? You all right, yeah?

0:34:58 > 0:35:00SHE TRIES TO PLAY THE FLUTE

0:35:00 > 0:35:03SHE JUST BLOWS AIR THROUGH

0:35:03 > 0:35:05- ECHOING:- Em? What's wrong?

0:35:05 > 0:35:10- ECHOING:- Em, come on, put some passion into it, yeah?

0:35:10 > 0:35:15- Come on, go again.- Sir, she looks like she's tripping.

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Something's not right here. She's not well.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22OK, Em, stop. What's wrong?

0:35:25 > 0:35:30- Look at her eyes.- I don't...know.

0:35:31 > 0:35:35I feel awful, my head's pounding.

0:35:36 > 0:35:42- Oh, my God!- What's the matter with her?- She's taken Diazepam!- What?!

0:35:42 > 0:35:46Right, we need to get her to the sick bay now. Tariq, grab the door.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Can you look after the recording for me?

0:35:48 > 0:35:51Mr Byrne's going to want to know what's gone on here.

0:35:51 > 0:35:53- I'd best go with them.- I've got it.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Can you take a break from that?

0:36:00 > 0:36:05Either I need to work harder, or I don't. I thought I was failing.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08Vicki, I need to interview you, and you need to co-operate with me.

0:36:08 > 0:36:11What's the point? I'm going to fail anyway. I may as well leave.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14- I'm not going to let you fail. - I'm going to get a C!

0:36:14 > 0:36:19- To get into a top university, I need an A!- What do you want, Vicki?

0:36:19 > 0:36:23- What do you mean?- Well, forget about everything that's happened.

0:36:23 > 0:36:28- What do you actually want? - I don't know any more.

0:36:28 > 0:36:31Right. Well, then you listen to me.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34If you've decided your education is over, then it's over.

0:36:34 > 0:36:39It's that simple. Life's hard. You know it just is.

0:36:39 > 0:36:43And it surprises you. I mean, you've seen me go through it a little bit this term.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45I mean, if you'd have told me

0:36:45 > 0:36:49this time last year that I'd be married with step-kids...

0:36:49 > 0:36:53Well, let's just say it's not what I expected. But you've just

0:36:53 > 0:36:57got to get on with it. You can't unravel. It's not an option.

0:37:02 > 0:37:06I want to go to university. I want to do a degree in biochemistry.

0:37:06 > 0:37:11- OK. And how much do you want that? - More than anything.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14Good.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18Oh, sorry.

0:37:18 > 0:37:22It's OK. I think we're done here. Thanks, Mrs Diamond.

0:37:25 > 0:37:29- Bye.- Wow.

0:37:29 > 0:37:34- She looks happier. How did you do that?- Well, her confidence is low.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- I just reminded her of a few things.- Good.

0:37:37 > 0:37:42- Look at you, showing off earlier. - Yeah, something like that.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45It was nice to roll my sleeves up again anyway.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47Well, it was good to see.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50Sian, I've finished with Grantly's grades.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53Will you check I've inputted them on to the system OK?

0:37:53 > 0:37:56When you get a minute. Excuse me.

0:38:06 > 0:38:07Hiya.

0:38:09 > 0:38:15- Sorry I haven't been around much today. You OK?- Yeah, I'm fine.

0:38:15 > 0:38:19Just trying to clear my head. Something that Mrs Diamond said.

0:38:19 > 0:38:25Oh, right. How did it go? Did you get your coursework back?

0:38:25 > 0:38:27Now he's asking.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29Well, that's not fair.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33What do you want me to do?

0:38:34 > 0:38:37Look, it's going to take me time.

0:38:37 > 0:38:39Yeah, well, you were fine this morning.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42Yeah, well, maybe I've had a chance to think about it.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44I can't pretend that everything's OK.

0:38:44 > 0:38:49- I can't pretend that last week you didn't hate my guts.- All right.

0:38:49 > 0:38:54- You don't need to say it out loud. - Well, it happened, Vic.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56I've got to learn to trust you again.

0:38:56 > 0:39:00The person that I love, the person that I thought loved me.

0:39:00 > 0:39:04- No, I do love you!- You act like everyone's out to get you.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09I know, but I need to move on from this too.

0:39:10 > 0:39:15I want to make it up to you, so we can get back to normal.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18I know. Come here.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27Yeah, this all looks really good!

0:39:27 > 0:39:30I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have it finished.

0:39:30 > 0:39:33We can tell the staff it's ready for printing now.

0:39:33 > 0:39:40- Michael will be pleased. - He'd better be.- Sian?- Yeah?

0:39:40 > 0:39:44Do you mind me asking...you had a thing with Michael, didn't you?

0:39:44 > 0:39:50- Yeah. A long time ago.- We should probably compare notes, then.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54What?

0:39:54 > 0:39:56You and Michael?

0:39:58 > 0:40:00He's your mystery man.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05We had too much to drink, but still. It was quite a night.

0:40:06 > 0:40:11- I'm sure.- Now he says it's a one-off, which is just...

0:40:11 > 0:40:12hurting a bit.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15I'm sorry.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Was it the same with you and him?

0:40:19 > 0:40:24- When you broke up? - Uh, it was complicated.

0:40:24 > 0:40:29- His head was in pieces, and he kind of pushed me away.- Right.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Actually, could we talk about this later?

0:40:32 > 0:40:37- I'm just clock-watching a little bit. Is that all right?- Of course.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41Sian, you won't say anything to Michael? My pride and all that.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43Sure.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56SHE WRETCHES AND COUGHS

0:41:01 > 0:41:05The nurse says she'll be fine.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20- Where did Em get the pills? - Sir, is she going to be all right?

0:41:20 > 0:41:24She's just taken drugs, what do you think? Now, I asked you a question!

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Where did Em get the pills?!

0:41:31 > 0:41:39I've got this job, all right, working for someone. Mia Willington.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42She asked me to go to the doctors and collect her prescription.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45So, you gave HER prescription drugs to your friend?

0:41:45 > 0:41:49I didn't give them to her! She snatched them and shoved them down her throat!

0:41:49 > 0:41:53Don't lie to me, Scout. You've dealt drugs before, haven't you?

0:41:53 > 0:41:57- Are you at it again?- I'm not! Em taking them drugs was nowt to do with me!

0:41:57 > 0:42:01Right, report back to me after you've collected your things.

0:42:01 > 0:42:04I'll give you a letter for your mother telling her you're excluded!

0:42:04 > 0:42:10What's the point? She don't give a toss. You don't get it, do you?

0:42:12 > 0:42:15Why d'you think I got a job working nights?

0:42:15 > 0:42:20Because I don't want to be at home with her!

0:42:20 > 0:42:22I'm not going back.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25We can't force her to go home if she doesn't want to.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Fine, then we'll call Social Services.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30What, so, you're just going to chuck me back into care, then?

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Scout, it's your doing.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38All I wanted to do was just to get a life for myself.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52Sometimes in this job you just have to trust your instincts.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55What? Even if you might be wrong?

0:43:04 > 0:43:08- Do you realise what you've done? Do you?- I know, I...

0:43:08 > 0:43:12It's all right for you, with your cosy house and your caring mum.

0:43:12 > 0:43:16Because of you showing off, taking those pills, I've lost my job.

0:43:16 > 0:43:20- That was going to be my new home! - I'm sorry. I am. I just...

0:43:20 > 0:43:23I just thought we weren't going to be mates.

0:43:23 > 0:43:27This is so messed up. Mr Byrne's ringing Social Services.

0:43:27 > 0:43:32Because of all this, I might get taken back into care!

0:43:32 > 0:43:34Do you get it?! Do you get how stupid it was

0:43:34 > 0:43:36to take those pills now?!

0:43:41 > 0:43:45Well, Mrs Willington, I'm just so sorry that you've been lied to.

0:43:45 > 0:43:49KNOCK ON THE DOOR I can only offer you my most sincere apologies.

0:43:50 > 0:43:53Thank you. Goodbye.

0:43:53 > 0:43:56Come.

0:44:00 > 0:44:02Take a seat.

0:44:02 > 0:44:09- Well, you are one very silly little girl.- Sir, I know. I'm sorry.

0:44:09 > 0:44:12Take my advice. Stay away from Jodie Allen. She's nothing but trouble.

0:44:12 > 0:44:18But she's my best friend. What happened to me was nothing to do with her.

0:44:18 > 0:44:22I took those drugs from her.

0:44:22 > 0:44:25She tried to stop me, but I wouldn't let her.

0:44:25 > 0:44:29- I was showing off. - You were showing off?

0:44:30 > 0:44:34- I don't know why. - Well, thanks to you, Miss James,

0:44:34 > 0:44:36Jodie's going to a care home tonight.

0:44:36 > 0:44:40- Sir, please don't let that happen. - There's nowhere else for her to go.

0:44:40 > 0:44:44My mum'll take her in. She's stayed over at ours loads of times.

0:44:44 > 0:44:49My mum really likes her. There's an empty room too,

0:44:49 > 0:44:51my sister's never going to want it again.

0:44:51 > 0:44:55OK, fine, take the phone.

0:44:55 > 0:45:00Give your mother a call and let's give this a try.

0:45:08 > 0:45:11Scout!

0:45:11 > 0:45:15- I spoke to my mum. Will you move in with us?- You ARE kidding?

0:45:15 > 0:45:18Seriously. The school reckons it's OK

0:45:18 > 0:45:22and she'll speak to Social Services, do whatever it takes. Scout!

0:45:24 > 0:45:27I'm really sorry about earlier.

0:45:27 > 0:45:31Well? Happy?

0:45:33 > 0:45:36I jumped to conclusions, Jodie. I really shouldn't have.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38No, you shouldn't.

0:45:38 > 0:45:44And there was me thinking I'm a good judge of character. After today, I'm not so sure.

0:45:44 > 0:45:47But I owe you an apology.

0:45:48 > 0:45:52- Did Em talk to you about arrangements?- Yeah.

0:45:54 > 0:45:58- I guess it could work.- Good.

0:46:01 > 0:46:04Oh, and don't you think you've got away with what you did today.

0:46:04 > 0:46:09You can wave goodbye to your lunchtime breaks for the foreseeable future.

0:46:12 > 0:46:15Hey, Scout, are you up for a burger after parents' evening?

0:46:15 > 0:46:19Sorry, I can't. I'm moving in Em's tonight. Go on, take a picture.

0:46:19 > 0:46:23It's ANOTHER moment in history!

0:46:32 > 0:46:33Come on.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38OK, some of the parents have started to arrive,

0:46:38 > 0:46:41so if you could make your way downstairs that'd be great.

0:46:41 > 0:46:43And I've got the final student grades here.

0:46:44 > 0:46:47- Sian.- Yeah.

0:46:47 > 0:46:52- Thanks. Zack said that you'd had a word.- Yeah, I did.

0:46:52 > 0:46:57- Well, he seemed happier.- He needs to know that you believe in him, Jez. - Where's that come from?

0:46:57 > 0:47:00He thinks that you're ashamed of him, because he's struggling.

0:47:00 > 0:47:05- Is he wrong? - I can't win with you, can I?

0:47:08 > 0:47:14- Now, purple, does it say confident, or bit of a berk?- Berk.

0:47:14 > 0:47:19Yeah, thought so. I'll go with the other one. I need a vote of confidence.

0:47:19 > 0:47:24Are we to be treated to the fruits of your musical labours this evening?

0:47:24 > 0:47:28Oh, yes. Everyone's in for, er... quite a surprise.

0:47:29 > 0:47:31Right, folks, I've just been downstairs

0:47:31 > 0:47:35and, Sian, you've done a terrific job.

0:47:35 > 0:47:39Chalky, it's parents evening, not speed dating.

0:47:39 > 0:47:43Oh, haha, no, no, it's Echinacea. I get a bit jumpy, you know.

0:47:43 > 0:47:47Well, you should expect a warmer than usual response out there.

0:47:47 > 0:47:52And I know I already owe you all a drink. Pub. Later. The first round is mine.

0:47:52 > 0:47:57- Well, that is a language I respect and understand.- You are a genius.

0:47:57 > 0:48:00- Hardly. Do you mind?- What? - I have to go.

0:48:10 > 0:48:13- Milk, two sugars, yeah? - You'll be lucky.

0:48:13 > 0:48:16- Ready to go soon? - Yeah, sure.- Hello.

0:48:19 > 0:48:26- Vick, I'm really sorry about before. - It's all right.- You know me.

0:48:26 > 0:48:30- Couldn't help myself. - I don't blame you, to be honest.

0:48:30 > 0:48:35- We're going to get off anyway. - Right. Have a good one, mate. - Nice one.

0:48:36 > 0:48:38# All of the little things

0:48:38 > 0:48:41# Simple things, they remind me

0:48:41 > 0:48:44# Kept them deep inside of me, oh, baby

0:48:44 > 0:48:46# All the sweet memories

0:48:46 > 0:48:50# All behind me, always seem to find me

0:48:50 > 0:48:54# So tell me, can we take it back?

0:48:54 > 0:48:59# To you and me, baby, how we used to be, baby?

0:48:59 > 0:49:02# Can we take it back...? #

0:49:02 > 0:49:04Well, good evening, everyone.

0:49:04 > 0:49:06I just wanted to thank you all for coming.

0:49:06 > 0:49:10It's been an absolutely wonderful turnout, so thank you again.

0:49:10 > 0:49:13Now, the pupils have done us proud recently, even pupils with

0:49:13 > 0:49:18lower grades have been able to set their own bench marks thanks to

0:49:18 > 0:49:22our aspirational grade initiative, meaning those pupils with low grades

0:49:22 > 0:49:26can think about what they can achieve with the right application.

0:49:26 > 0:49:29Because here at Waterloo Road we believe that every child

0:49:29 > 0:49:33should be able to aim higher and be assessed on that potential,

0:49:33 > 0:49:40and our pupils have proved that they are a force to be reckoned with.

0:49:40 > 0:49:44Just to demonstrate that, a few of our music students spent

0:49:44 > 0:49:48the day working hard to prepare their own music track.

0:49:48 > 0:49:51And I think now we're fortunate enough to be able to hear it.

0:49:51 > 0:49:52Tariq?

0:49:52 > 0:49:54SILENCE

0:49:54 > 0:49:58LAUGHTER Technical glitch.

0:50:03 > 0:50:07TRACK PLAYS

0:50:18 > 0:50:20THE TWINS RECOGNISE THEIR VOICES ON THE TRACK

0:50:20 > 0:50:25- Oh! You!- See!

0:50:43 > 0:50:46Is this you?

0:50:46 > 0:50:48# Prison life was hard, for them man behind them bars

0:50:48 > 0:50:50# I had fights, didn't fall

0:50:50 > 0:50:52# Parents, I couldn't call

0:50:52 > 0:50:53# Did the crime, did the time... #

0:50:53 > 0:50:56Is this Tariq? When did you record this?

0:50:56 > 0:50:58Oh, we've been beavering away, you know?

0:50:58 > 0:51:03- This is great.- Chalky, you've produced a music track!

0:51:03 > 0:51:06You're a bona fide music producer.

0:51:06 > 0:51:08THEY LAUGH

0:51:08 > 0:51:12Do you wanna get some drinks in from me?

0:51:12 > 0:51:17I'll be along after I've finished cleaning up, thanks. Matt?

0:51:17 > 0:51:21Well done. Thank you for taking that gamble.

0:51:21 > 0:51:23Are you happy with that?

0:51:28 > 0:51:30D'you like it?

0:51:30 > 0:51:33- What? Tariq was? - Yeah, he was brilliant.

0:51:33 > 0:51:35What kind of music was it, Chalky?

0:51:35 > 0:51:38- Well, it was sick. - TITTERING

0:51:38 > 0:51:41Nah, it started off a bit grimey,

0:51:41 > 0:51:45then when the "dub-step" kicked in Tariq was MCing over the top.

0:51:45 > 0:51:48- Right, my round! - I'll give you a hand.

0:51:49 > 0:51:54- Why was he sick? - THEY LAUGH

0:51:56 > 0:52:01- Couldn't these have waited? - I just wanted all the records of attendance.

0:52:01 > 0:52:03- Right.- Sian?- Yeah?

0:52:03 > 0:52:07- Everything all right between you and Jez?- Yeah. Why?

0:52:07 > 0:52:10You just seemed a bit tense earlier, that's all.

0:52:10 > 0:52:14I'm surprised you had time to notice anyone else's love life,

0:52:14 > 0:52:16there seems to be so much going on in your own.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18What's that supposed to mean?

0:52:18 > 0:52:21Apparently, there was no stopping you. "Quite a night," she said.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26Linda.

0:52:26 > 0:52:30And why are you worried about that?

0:52:30 > 0:52:34- I'm not worried. - Well, you don't seem happy about it.

0:52:34 > 0:52:36I just...I think it's in poor taste.

0:52:36 > 0:52:39You're her boss. She's obviously into you, and you just...

0:52:39 > 0:52:43We're two consenting adults. We can do whatever we like.

0:52:43 > 0:52:46- Yeah, I know that.- Are you jealous?

0:52:46 > 0:52:49Are you out of your mind?!

0:52:49 > 0:52:52Yeah, you are, you're jealous.

0:52:52 > 0:52:57- You haven't got a clue, have you?! - What?!- This is what you do, Michael, you play with people.

0:52:57 > 0:53:03- You did it to me and now you've done it to Linda!- You ran off and got married!- Don't you dare.

0:53:09 > 0:53:11I should go.

0:53:19 > 0:53:23- Are you OK?- Yeah. - Quite caught me by surprise today.

0:53:23 > 0:53:27- What, you mean you don't think I'm ready to be a dad?- Course I do.

0:53:28 > 0:53:34Rosie and I had this drunken idea, but what if we don't get on?

0:53:34 > 0:53:38I mean, I can't have my child growing up thinking that he or she

0:53:38 > 0:53:40was a mistake, like Scout.

0:53:40 > 0:53:45- If there's one teacher Scout talks about all the time, it's you. - Oh, come on.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48No, no, she is one of the most difficult kids in that school

0:53:48 > 0:53:50and you got through to her.

0:53:51 > 0:53:55You and Rosie, you're good friends, aren't you?

0:53:55 > 0:53:59Surely you can pass that on to the little one? Some parents couldn't.

0:53:59 > 0:54:03Maybe you should just stop worrying?

0:54:06 > 0:54:09MOBILE RINGS

0:54:15 > 0:54:18Hey, how are our baby plans coming along?

0:54:23 > 0:54:26KNOCK ON THE DOOR Sian.

0:54:28 > 0:54:30You.

0:54:30 > 0:54:34Thought I'd check out parents' evening. Very interesting.

0:54:34 > 0:54:37People really like you, don't they?

0:54:37 > 0:54:40- Sounds like you're the big hero again.- Get out of my office.

0:54:40 > 0:54:43Could have wheeled me out. Seeing as I was your big success story.

0:54:45 > 0:54:49You need to leave. Right now. Otherwise I'm calling the police.

0:54:49 > 0:54:53OK. We can tell them about you popping round my place.

0:54:53 > 0:54:57- Threatening me.- What do you want? - My girlfriend kicked me out today.

0:54:59 > 0:55:03- So? What, you've nobody to talk to about it?- Don't push it.

0:55:03 > 0:55:07So, now, because of you, I've got no home, no girlfriend.

0:55:07 > 0:55:08Wayne, how is this my fault?

0:55:08 > 0:55:11Because of the case, I was away on remand.

0:55:11 > 0:55:15And I missed the birth of my little girl. And now Alicia wants me out.

0:55:15 > 0:55:20- I've got nothing.- Wayne, I did everything I could for you when you were at school! You know that!

0:55:20 > 0:55:24HE LAUGHS God, you're so ungrateful.

0:55:24 > 0:55:27You can't have everything handed to you on a plate.

0:55:27 > 0:55:30Sooner or later you're going to have to man up,

0:55:30 > 0:55:33take responsibility for your own life.

0:55:33 > 0:55:39- It's your fault I'm out on the street now.- See, there you go again! Go on. GET OUT!

0:55:42 > 0:55:45You're actually quite scared of me, aren't you?

0:55:47 > 0:55:50Brilliant.

0:55:56 > 0:55:59- Hi, guys. - All right, where have you been?

0:55:59 > 0:56:02- I had to help take down some display boards.- Really?

0:56:02 > 0:56:04You should've said. I'd have helped you.

0:56:04 > 0:56:07- Are you not stopping for another? - No, I should get back.

0:56:07 > 0:56:10- You OK?- Yeah, it's just been a long day, that's all.

0:56:10 > 0:56:15- Bye.- See you. - Sit down.- Thank you.

0:56:17 > 0:56:19- Are we all right?- Yeah, of course.

0:56:19 > 0:56:24- I'll get you a glass of wine. You deserve it. Anyone else?- Please. - Yes, please, mate.

0:56:32 > 0:56:38- Hey! I thought I told you to leave. - Here he is.

0:56:38 > 0:56:41- Get yourself off school property right now!- Make me.

0:56:41 > 0:56:43- I'm not going to tell you again. - Go on, then!- GO!

0:56:43 > 0:56:46- HE LAUGHS - Come on, then!

0:56:46 > 0:56:50Get out of here!

0:56:50 > 0:56:52YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!

0:56:57 > 0:57:00Oh, man, you're asking for it! Again!

0:57:03 > 0:57:07What did you say? What did you say?!

0:57:23 > 0:57:26What you going to do, eh?

0:57:26 > 0:57:30Be a man about it, eh?

0:57:31 > 0:57:34Me and you are going to see a lot more of each other.

0:57:56 > 0:57:59That Wayne lad that Michael reckoned stabbed him

0:57:59 > 0:58:01is unconscious in hospital.

0:58:01 > 0:58:02Suspected foul play.

0:58:07 > 0:58:13- Show me your phone!- I wish I could, but if I do I'll land someone in trouble.- With who?- The police.

0:58:13 > 0:58:15Me and Trudi, we've been, like, going out, but in secret.

0:58:15 > 0:58:19Now I have heard it all. Tariq's going to kill you.

0:58:19 > 0:58:23You come here!

0:58:23 > 0:58:24- We're together.- It's true.
