0:00:02 > 0:00:06- It's just me and you. - Then we're over. I've had enough.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09- I was wrong to think this could work.- Please don't do this to me.
0:00:09 > 0:00:10I'm sorry.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12You and Michael?
0:00:12 > 0:00:15They had a bit of a fling, just before you saw the light.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18We crossed the line, never to be repeated.
0:00:20 > 0:00:24At last, we have a head teacher with a firm hand.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Me and you are going to see a lot more of each other. Eh?
0:00:27 > 0:00:29CAR BRAKES SCREECH
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Mum! Being fussed over isn't exactly
0:02:06 > 0:02:08the first impression I was going for.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10- Now you've definitely got your pills?- Yes!
0:02:13 > 0:02:17- Dad's out tonight, so you guys can come round.- Free house?
0:02:17 > 0:02:20You know what you should be thinking? House party-y-y!
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Let's do it
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Freddie?- Mm?- Are your alarms set for your pills?- Yes, I told you.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Pills - check. Stationery - check. Overbearing mother - check.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31OK, OK!
0:02:33 > 0:02:34Give us a hug, then.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36What's he doing?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Would you really let your mum do that on your first day?
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Mum, you're mining new depths of uncool here. Just back off.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- I'll be fine.- Sorry, I just... - I'll see you later.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Don't worry, I'll try not to die.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57I'll do you proud, mate.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59I promise.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01MOBILE RINGS
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Hello?
0:03:08 > 0:03:09Hello?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Come on, say something.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Coward!
0:03:21 > 0:03:26School debate. Have you seen this?
0:03:26 > 0:03:30As if our lot needs instruction on how to argue and answer back!
0:03:30 > 0:03:34I think it's a great thing. Shows the kids they can aspire to something more.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Exactly. This school initiative is really positive.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Hear, hear! Here you are, babe. A cup of tea.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43- You all right?- Yeah.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Just busy.- You need to let off a bit of steam, you know where I am.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49You know what they say the best relief for stress is?
0:03:49 > 0:03:52- Thank you. - Just saying, that's all.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55- Oh Sian, I'm so sorry! - It's OK.
0:03:55 > 0:03:56No problem.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58You look tired.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Must be all the late night rendezvous at Michael's flat.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03I'm sorry?
0:04:03 > 0:04:07The other night. I was there. I saw you both.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11OK, everyone.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13As some of you know, we have a very special visitor today.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Waterloo Road has been short-listed for a grant
0:04:15 > 0:04:18of £50,000 from a local company.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21The managing director's wife, Margaret Harker,
0:04:21 > 0:04:24has been observing all the short-listed schools
0:04:24 > 0:04:27and she'll have a big say in which school gets the final grant.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31I think our debates this afternoon will help us to shine.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Oh great(!) So, more scrutiny, more pressure,
0:04:34 > 0:04:35Just what we need(!)
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Well, let's show her what Waterloo Road is all about
0:04:38 > 0:04:41and our improved results aren't just a flash in the pan.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43..turned this place around and he's dead brainy.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47So, if you put Stephen Hawking, Nelson Mandela and Superman
0:04:47 > 0:04:49all in a blender, you'd get Mr Byrne.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Well, I certainly appreciate your enthusiasm for your head.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57- But the cheque hasn't been signed yet. We'll see how things go. - Margaret...
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Welcome to Waterloo Road. - Nice to see you again.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04- I'm looking forward to what you have to show me.- Excellent.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- You ready for the grand tour?- Yes.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- Hey.- Hiya.- Just wanted to let you know I've given notice on the flat.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Right, OK. Well, we need to pay last month's rent,
0:05:13 > 0:05:15but I'm going to sell the Bur-mobile.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18No. I'll pay, it's fine. I'll see you later.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Whoa! Watch it!
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Sorry.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29I'm Freddie, by the way. It's my first day.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34So, how you finding life in the land of the dumped?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36You tell me! I'm sick of moping around.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Need to bounce back. Hey, you heard about a party tonight?
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Yeah. Let's go get our hands on some women.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Really trying to make this place a much more positive environment.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Inspirational quotes, positive imagery.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I think it's really important to encourage these kids to aim high.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59It's all really impressive, Michael.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02This is exactly the sort of progressive thinking
0:06:02 > 0:06:04that we value at the company.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07If things move forward, we should talk about a joint PR strategy.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10It's important that we're seen to be supporting the local community,
0:06:10 > 0:06:14and a school with a celebrity headmaster is always handy.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Well, as I think you know, it's a team effort.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Speaking of which, allow me to introduce
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- one of my Deputies, Sian Diamond. - Hello.- Hello.
0:06:21 > 0:06:26Actually, we have a staff shortage issue.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29The kids have produced exceptional art work this term.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34- Perhaps you'd like to take a look? It might surprise you.- Of course.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- Linda knows.- What?
0:06:38 > 0:06:40About us. She saw me at your flat.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- What did you say to her? - Nothing. We were in the staffroom.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Jez was there. Do you think she'll tell him?
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- I don't know. Let me talk to her. It'll be all right.- OK.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Everything all right?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Er, a couple of suppliers have cancelled on us.
0:06:56 > 0:07:01But we were hoping Mr Byrne might step in and cover the debate class?
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Of course! My pleasure.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Ah! An added bonus.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08I'll get to see the master in action, then?
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Yes, I suppose you will. Well, I'd better get myself prepped, hadn't I?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15This way.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Morning!
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Morning. Good morning.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- You got a busy day ahead or...? - Is there any other kind?
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- Miss Radleigh, do you have a moment? - Yes, of course.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37- Mr Chalk, would you mind finishing off the grand tour for me?- Me?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Yes, show Mrs Harker around? - Yes, of course.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42- This way, please.- Thank you
0:07:49 > 0:07:51What have you said to Sian?
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Didn't take her long to come running to you, did it?
0:07:54 > 0:07:55I don't know what you think is going on...
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Oh please, Michael!
0:07:58 > 0:08:01I'd appreciate it if you kept this to yourself.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10Anyway, while I've got you, there's this new lad just transferred in.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Freddie Jackson. He's in my form...
0:08:12 > 0:08:14You know, my car got keyed that night.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Sorry?- You wouldn't know anything about that?
0:08:17 > 0:08:21You were quite upset when you left.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22Are you serious?
0:08:23 > 0:08:27How juvenile do you think I am? I've better things to do with my time
0:08:27 > 0:08:30than indulge in acts of petty vandalism.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34If nothing else, I'm a professional, Michael. You know that.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Here's Freddie's file.
0:08:39 > 0:08:44Why don't we just concentrate on the important things, hm?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Watch yourself, mate! - Here, let me help you.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Oh, thanks.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00- I'm Freddie.- Rhona.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Eurgh! Come on.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Oi! Won't your mum get jealous if she sees you talking to other girls?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11No, but yours might.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12Whoa, chill your boots!
0:09:12 > 0:09:16- I was only joking! I didn't mean anything, mate! - I'm not your mate.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Ah, you must be Freddie.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23You making new friends already, then?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Knowing how to debate effectively can put the world
0:09:35 > 0:09:37in the palm of your hand. It can decide wars,
0:09:37 > 0:09:40affect the future of the planet.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Or just give you the opportunity to tell Simon Cowell
0:09:42 > 0:09:45who you think should be the next number one.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47LAUGHTER
0:09:47 > 0:09:51Our topic, "Without law and order, we have no freedom."
0:09:51 > 0:09:52A classic paradox.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54GENERAL CLAMOUR
0:09:54 > 0:09:58- Yes.- A teacher's pet as well as a mummy's boy!
0:09:58 > 0:09:59Impressive, right?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01MOBILE BEEPS
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Tut, tut! Shouldn't that be switched off?
0:10:19 > 0:10:23So, I'm going to put you in teams of two to prepare for the debate.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28Sir, can we be partners? Reckon we've got loads to talk about.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36Freddie. You've met Phoenix already, haven't you?
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Er... - Good! Then you two can be partners.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40LAUGHTER
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Right, I'm expecting great things from you lot today.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51So turn to page 31 in your textbooks, and in twos, I want you to complete
0:10:51 > 0:10:55the experiments that have been set out in front of you, OK?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- Heard about this party tonight? - Yeah, someone mentioned it.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Should be fun. Is anyone going that you fancy?
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Er...- Oh, go on! Who've you got your eye on?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Actually, I've kind of started seeing somebody.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10- Oh, yeah?- It's just a family friend.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Really? Well, is it serious? - It's early days,
0:11:13 > 0:11:15my Dad really likes him,
0:11:15 > 0:11:17so I'm going to see if I can make it work.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Lucky you! I wish I could find a decent fella.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24You all right, girls? What's his name then?
0:11:24 > 0:11:25Sorry?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27This family friend?
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Finn, that was a private conversation.- Not private enough.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Don't mess about, do you?
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Who is he, then?
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Guys, can we save the gossip for the playground, yeah?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Finn, back to your experiment.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45SCHOOL BELL RINGS
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- What's Trudi playing at? - You need to let her go, Finn.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53- Hey, Lauren. Do you know who this guy is?- What does it matter?
0:11:53 > 0:11:56She likes him. Her family like him.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00It's just not going to happen for you two. I'm sorry, mate.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Remember what I told you, guys.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09Know your subject, keep your focus, but enjoy it, all right? Have fun!
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Wonderful work, Michael. Wonderful.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- I'm looking forward to this afternoon.- Nothing revolutionary, really.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17For me, it's more a question of making it relate to them somehow.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Ah, I wish I'd had a teacher like you in my day.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24- Freddie? What's your next class?- PE.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28What I want you to do is take all of that passion,
0:12:28 > 0:12:29put in maximum effort.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33It doesn't matter what people think, don't give up.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Just one thing. I forgot my kit. First day nerves.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41That's all right. There'll be something in lost property.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43- Thanks, sir.- OK.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Phoenix, can I have a word for a second?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Do you mind going along to the staff room?
0:12:51 > 0:12:52I'll be right behind you.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- What the hell are you playing at? - You attacked that guy, I saw you.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08What do you want?
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Go to the police. Tell them what happened.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- It's not that easy, Phoenix. - Why not?
0:13:13 > 0:13:14Because it isn't!
0:13:17 > 0:13:19What is all of this really about anyway?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Just go to the police. - What is it, money?
0:13:22 > 0:13:27Fine. If it's money, here.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31There's 100 there, right? But that's an end of it. We're done!
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Wait a minute.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Where's the footage?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Proud of yourself? - Take it, get out.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58- You look lost. - Sort of. Got PE next.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59The changing rooms are this way.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- Thanks.- You're welcome.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04How's your first day going?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Well, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Right.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15It must be hard for the new kid.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Maybe we should, like, introduce ourselves?
0:14:18 > 0:14:19You know, say hiya and that?
0:14:19 > 0:14:23No, no, no. He'll be fine. Leave him to it. Come on.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24What have you got next?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Oi, Phoenix. You ought to see the playlist for this party.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30It's going to be sick!
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- How many people have you invited? - Don't worry about it.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- Seriously, man. How many? - Just a few.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Oi, what's wrong?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42You got a hairy back or summat?
0:14:42 > 0:14:44LAUGHTER
0:14:49 > 0:14:51KNOCKING ON WINDOW
0:14:56 > 0:14:57Mrs Diamond?
0:14:57 > 0:15:00There's a problem with the supplies for my next lesson.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02- What? - I will show you. This way.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Sorry.- Have you spoken to Linda?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Yeah, I don't think she'll say anything.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Well, that's something, but if other people know,
0:15:13 > 0:15:16then I have to tell Jez now.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17He can't be the last to hear.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Do you think that's a good idea?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Yes. He deserves to hear it from me.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26It's the least I can do. I'm going to tell him tonight.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30WHISTLE BLOWS
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Come on, boys, talk to each other.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Move into space, ask for the ball.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44- Don't make me look silly, boys. - Pass!
0:15:44 > 0:15:45Come on, come on!
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Come on, Freddie, get stuck in. Get your team going.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20So, what's next?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Could you just wait here, just one minute?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27I thought I was supposed to be shadowing you. What's the matter?
0:16:27 > 0:16:31- WHISTLE BLOWS - That's it, boys. That's it, run!
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Look up for your players.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42# You know I couldn't care less. #
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Look up for your players.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Go on, mate! - He's just skinned ya, again.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53That's it, Freddie. Go on, take the ball. Run, son, run!
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Go on, Freddie. Go on, Freddie. Go on, mate, go for it, that's it.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09- What's wrong with him? - I'm fine, please.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- I just need to get my breath back. - Why didn't you tell anyone?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14I just wanted to do as you told me, sir.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18- What's going on? - He has a heart condition. - You what? Why didn't I know that?
0:17:18 > 0:17:22Phoenix, go and get the nurse. We can play the blame game later.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Mrs Harker, why don't you come with me? We'll continue the tour.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Tattoos or piercings?
0:17:29 > 0:17:34Mmm...I'm not sure. What do you think?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- Tattoos. - Really? Would you ever get one?
0:17:37 > 0:17:41Yeah, course I would, would you?
0:17:41 > 0:17:45I don't know. Maybe. Do you think they're cool?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Yeah, well cool. Do you?
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well cool.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50I'm so going to get one.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Hiya. Phoenix is having a party tonight because his dad's away.
0:17:53 > 0:17:54Do you fancy coming?
0:17:54 > 0:17:55BOTH: Yeah!
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Oh, gosh, you two are worse than us.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- I thought we were the only twins at this school! - THEY LAUGH
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Sounds like we need to get some booze in.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05You up for a little lunchtime field trip?
0:18:08 > 0:18:11You're lucky he's all right. I've got a good mind to sue!
0:18:11 > 0:18:14- Mrs Jackson, I...- Mum, I'm fine. It was just a funny turn.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17If you knew his medical history, why on earth was he allowed to do PE?
0:18:17 > 0:18:20It just slipped through the net.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- "It slipped through the net"?! - DOOR OPENS
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- I heard what happened, is everything all right? - Who's this?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29- This is Miss Radleigh, Freddie's form tutor. - And what have you got to say?
0:18:29 > 0:18:34Well, I gave Mr Byrne Freddie's file with all the info.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Unbelievable. I should go to the press about this.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40- See how much you like reading about yourself then. - There's no need for that.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Freddie's all right. The nurse checked him over thoroughly.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46- Well, I'm taking him home. - If you think that's best.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49No, Mum, I don't want to go home. You heard him. They checked me out, I'm fine.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53- I'm happy to keep Freddie here if that's what he wants. - Absolutely not.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56He's coming home, where he belongs, where he's safe.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58So I can just be a prisoner again?
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Freddie?
0:19:00 > 0:19:04- Mrs Jackson. - Maybe just give them a minute. Mmm?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08How much did you know about Freddie?
0:19:08 > 0:19:12I had exactly the same info as you had from the enrolment form.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13Do you do this deliberately?
0:19:15 > 0:19:16What?!
0:19:16 > 0:19:19You think I'd put the safety of a child in jeopardy because of you?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Don't flatter yourself. I gave you his file.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25I told you to read it. I did everything right!
0:19:25 > 0:19:29If you knew it was that important, you should've made it 100% clear.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34This is on you.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52What the hell?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57We tried, but you're not up to it. Come on, let's go home.
0:19:57 > 0:20:02- You know how much this means to me. How much I've been through, I'm not going back home.- Freddie.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07- I'm not leaving school. You'll have to drag me, kicking and screaming. - Then that's what I'll do.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09If you're not going to let me live my life,
0:20:09 > 0:20:12you may as well have just let me die in there!
0:20:13 > 0:20:18All right, all right. I don't want you getting worked up.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23You can stay, if that's what you want.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Just please promise me you'll be careful?
0:20:27 > 0:20:31Yes. Just leave me alone, Mum.
0:20:31 > 0:20:32Please, OK?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39He's staying. On your head be it.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Superhead, my arse.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43CHILDREN LAUGH
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Well, what are you all looking at? Get inside your classrooms. Now!
0:20:55 > 0:20:57MUSIC: "Go Outside" by Cults
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Phoenix, is it true we're having a massive party at ours tonight?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Yep, party to end all parties.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10- That's if we can get our hands on some cash. - All right, calm down.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16Phoenix, where've you got this money from?
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Does it really matter?
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Do you want to sit here?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31OTHER TABLE GIGGLES
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Er...no, I've got to go. See you.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Ah. Come to keep your hubby company, have you?
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Something like that, yeah. Erm...
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Do you have any plans for this evening?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53I was going to have a little kick-around in the park with Zack, but...
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Why, what have you got to offer?
0:21:56 > 0:21:59I thought maybe we could have dinner together, just the two of us.
0:21:59 > 0:22:04Absolutely. Right, the kick-around's just been postponed. I tell you what, I'll cook.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- No, please don't go to any trouble. - No, seriously, it's fine.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09You can relax and I'll take care of everything.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Nothing but the best for you, my love.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- I can't wait. - I'll see you, then.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23You lot, scarper. Go.
0:22:30 > 0:22:31What the hell is this?
0:22:31 > 0:22:32My literacy homework.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36I guess you understand why I want to get away from here,
0:22:36 > 0:22:37from you...
0:22:37 > 0:22:39You think any of this is fair?!
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Mr Byrne?
0:22:42 > 0:22:43What's wrong?
0:22:45 > 0:22:49The lad was...mouthing off, that's all. Off you go, Phoenix. Go!
0:22:52 > 0:22:57He was mouthing off. I won't repeat any of what he was saying obviously,
0:22:57 > 0:23:00but we have certain standards of conduct here
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- and they will be upheld.- Indeed.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Why don't we go to your office?
0:23:05 > 0:23:10- I was just about to show Mrs Harker the delights of the canteen.- Great.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Er... It's just this way.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28- Oi, new kid. Heard you've got a pig's heart or something.- Eurgh!
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- Is that true then? - Have you got a scar?
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- What?- Can we see it?- What? No.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Leave him alone. He don't want to talk about it.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39- Is it a human heart? Is it a girl's heart? - That's mad. Can they even do that?
0:23:39 > 0:23:42- Stop it.- Shut up! Just leave me alone, all of you.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46Please tell me that you don't think he's still fit?
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- Hey.- Do one. I'm not in the mood.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56What's the matter? You scared or something?
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Scared, of you? Don't be stupid.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- Come on, then. - I'm not going to fight you.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Why not? Come on, why not?
0:24:03 > 0:24:05I'm not going to fight some little weirdo
0:24:05 > 0:24:07with some heart condition, am I?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09CROWD JEER
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Don't start something you can't finish.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19< Phoenix.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22Come on. I said, come on!
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Phoenix!
0:25:00 > 0:25:04Miss, that new kid's got Phoenix's bike!
0:25:15 > 0:25:18What is going on with you and Phoenix? Are you OK?
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Just frazzled, all this business with Freddie.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I really dropped the ball there.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26- If we're to stand any chance of getting this grant... - Margaret isn't stupid. She knows
0:25:26 > 0:25:29you have a difficult job, she'll expect curveballs.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32- There's just so much to do with the debate. - I can help out with the debate.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Don't tell me that's what you're stressed out about.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Are you really going to tell Jez about us?
0:25:40 > 0:25:43You don't want me to?
0:25:43 > 0:25:47No. I just... I just worry about what it'll mean for both of us...
0:25:48 > 0:25:51..if it becomes public knowledge.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56- We can't keep it a secret for ever. - Sorry to interrupt.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Don't tell me. There's a meteor headed for Waterloo Road.
0:25:59 > 0:26:00Not exactly.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03- Right, what is it? - Freddie's gone AWOL.- What?
0:26:03 > 0:26:07- He drove off on Phoenix's moped. - You didn't think to stop him? - I'll call Mrs Jackson.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09- No, I'll deal with this. - Where are you going?
0:26:09 > 0:26:12- I'm going to find him myself. - Michael!
0:26:15 > 0:26:18- What we doing here? - Five-finger discount.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23You keep guard, and... I'll get us a bottle.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28# As I start this story
0:26:28 > 0:26:33# I might shed a tear or two Just for effect
0:26:33 > 0:26:40# The day started at six And started with the flick... #
0:26:40 > 0:26:43That was easy. He didn't even look at me.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46- Oi!- Quick, run!
0:26:46 > 0:26:49# I'm happy when I'm happy Happy when I'm sad
0:26:49 > 0:26:52# Happy cos it's Monday
0:26:52 > 0:26:55# I'm happy when the tears Come rolling down my face
0:26:55 > 0:26:57# Happy cos it's Monday... #
0:26:59 > 0:27:01That was too close.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Don't worry. He was never going to catch us.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06He won't find us round here.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08We should be getting back now.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Come on. We just got started.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13What would you rather be, stuck in boring lessons
0:27:13 > 0:27:15or come and have some fun with me?
0:27:17 > 0:27:20Oh, look. What a coincidence.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22SHE LAUGHS
0:27:22 > 0:27:24You're not serious?
0:27:26 > 0:27:27You planned this?
0:27:27 > 0:27:31What? Not scared, are you?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39I just feel so bad for the lad.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43If I'd known he had a heart transplant, I never would've let him play football.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45- Everything OK, Linda?- Fine.
0:27:46 > 0:27:51Actually, no, it's not. I know we're supposed to be on-message today, but Michael's doing my head in.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52All right, well...
0:27:52 > 0:27:55He refuses to take any responsibility over Freddie.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58It's you and me that'll get dragged over the coals for this.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01It's not enough he has a special relationship with your wife.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Erm, what's that supposed to mean?
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Oh, come on, do I have to draw you a picture?
0:28:06 > 0:28:07You know what? Behave, Linda.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11- You're just stirring because Michael gave you a knock-back.- Oh, please.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16I've got to get to class.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Don't take any notice of her, mate.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29MUSIC: "Gob" by DELS
0:28:47 > 0:28:49MUSIC STOPS ABRUPTLY
0:28:49 > 0:28:55- Hush! Right, let's get on. Graham Abbot.- Here.
0:28:57 > 0:28:58Jodie Allen?
0:29:00 > 0:29:02Jodie Allen?
0:29:02 > 0:29:05No, sir. She's...she's not here.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07Oh, and neither is Emily James.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Ah, Mr Clarkson.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16I think you should know, as deputy head,
0:29:16 > 0:29:20that I have two girls mysteriously absent.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Oh, no prizes for guessing who. Right, OK, leave it with me.
0:29:24 > 0:29:25Mm.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32I'm not too sure about this.
0:29:32 > 0:29:37Come on, Scout. It's going to be dead cool, this. A statement.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42You and me against the world. Sisters, bonded forever.
0:29:43 > 0:29:48Yeah. Does it really hurt as bad as they say?
0:29:48 > 0:29:50- There's only one way to find out. - MOBILE PHONE RINGS
0:29:50 > 0:29:52It's school.
0:29:52 > 0:29:53HANGS UP PHONE
0:29:55 > 0:29:56Don't chicken out now.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18I'm sorry I let you down, mate.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30Freddie?
0:30:31 > 0:30:36Been looking for you everywhere, what on earth are you trying to do?
0:30:37 > 0:30:41- Come on, enough of this. You need to come back to school, now. - I'm not going anywhere.
0:30:41 > 0:30:44- Do you want your mother to find out about this?- Do you?
0:30:47 > 0:30:49No.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52No, I don't.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00I didn't want to go back to my old school.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04Being two years behind everyone else, everyone staring at me.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06I just wanted to be normal.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09To be able to go to school like everyone else.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12To run around, to muck about, have a laugh.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13Now everyone thinks I'm a freak.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16No, you're just different, that's all.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17That's OK.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20Why don't you come back to school and we'll deal with this?
0:31:20 > 0:31:22I'll help you in whatever way I can.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27Just be honest.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31People will accept you the way you are.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33But you have to give them a chance.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40I think we should get that bike back to its rightful owner.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43I wish I was more like Phoenix.
0:31:45 > 0:31:46You're much better off as you.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Time to face the music.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02Nice of you to come back.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06As if it's not enough that the two of you were caught playing truant, again,
0:32:06 > 0:32:09we've had a call from a shopkeeper in town.
0:32:09 > 0:32:13Said two girls in Waterloo Road uniforms were seen shoplifting vodka.
0:32:13 > 0:32:18Well, it doesn't take Hercule Poirot to put that one together, does it,
0:32:18 > 0:32:19given your previous history?
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Hand it over.
0:32:29 > 0:32:33He's decided not to press charges, though why I stuck up for you, I don't know.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36What you fidgeting at? What's wrong with your arm?
0:32:36 > 0:32:39- Er, nothing.- Show me!
0:32:49 > 0:32:50Show me yours.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58Oh, well, this just gets better and better, doesn't it?
0:32:58 > 0:33:00Your mum's going to love this one.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Mrs Harker, welcome to our grand finale!
0:33:08 > 0:33:12We wondered if you might like to be on the judging panel?
0:33:12 > 0:33:14- I'd be honoured.- Great.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Where is Mr Byrne, by the way?
0:33:17 > 0:33:19One of our pupils has gone off site.
0:33:19 > 0:33:20He's gone to get him.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24He always goes the extra mile for these kids.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27If there's a problem - he gets involved - that's just his style.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29We're very lucky to have him.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31I think he's lucky to have you.
0:33:31 > 0:33:35Well, you know what they say - behind every great man...
0:33:35 > 0:33:37- is an exhausted woman.- Yes.
0:33:37 > 0:33:43- No, it's good to see he obviously has the support of his senior staff. - Full support, absolutely.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54I've just spoken with Emily's mum.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57There's no easy way of saying this,
0:33:57 > 0:34:02but she's speaking to Social Services about you staying somewhere else.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04What? No, she can't do that!
0:34:04 > 0:34:06I want to stay at Emily's.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08Where else am I supposed to go?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10They're looking into foster care.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14No.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16No, no, please...
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Look, your Social Worker will be looking after your best interests.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21It's out of my hands.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27I'm sorry, Scout, but you've brought this on yourself.
0:34:34 > 0:34:39Before you say anything, I shouldn't have taken your bike, I'm sorry.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42After this you're finished, heart condition or not, mate.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45Freddie, would you like to sit down now, please?
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- Is there a problem, Phoenix? - There could be for someone.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50What's that supposed to mean?
0:34:50 > 0:34:53It means, I'm going to be up there,
0:34:53 > 0:34:55with a microphone and a video projector.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58- You wouldn't dare.- Wouldn't I?
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Good afternoon, everyone.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17I'd like to thank you all very much for coming,
0:35:17 > 0:35:20a very warm welcome to the Waterloo Road School Debate.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24Now, for those of you unfamiliar with how this works,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27our students will debate in teams of two,
0:35:27 > 0:35:31one to take the affirmative and one the negative.
0:35:31 > 0:35:36The students will be graded by both myself and our judging panel,
0:35:36 > 0:35:39and the marks will count towards their final English grades.
0:35:39 > 0:35:44So, without any further ado, I suggest we begin.
0:35:44 > 0:35:49The West uses the excuse of freedom to run amok all over the Middle East.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51They've tried to bring democracy to these countries,
0:35:51 > 0:35:53and look what's happened.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Violence, death, civil unrest...
0:35:56 > 0:35:58Maybe democracy is worth those sacrifices.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01But surely that's just ideological imperialism.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04Or maybe the values are just stupid.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Maybe their beliefs are outdated.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Maybe some people need someone from outside to open their eyes.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14You're only capable of seeing things from your cultural perspective.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17Maybe I'm only capable of seeing the truth.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21People should have the freedom to choose what they really want, not be dictated to.
0:36:23 > 0:36:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:36:27 > 0:36:31MUSIC: "Pretend" by Emika
0:36:31 > 0:36:32# That we are friends
0:36:34 > 0:36:36# Till the end
0:36:38 > 0:36:40# Just for tonight
0:36:42 > 0:36:44# We can pretend
0:36:46 > 0:36:48# That we are friends
0:36:49 > 0:36:51# Till the end
0:36:53 > 0:36:54# Just for tonight... #
0:36:56 > 0:36:58Feminism paved the way for female role-models
0:36:58 > 0:37:01such as Lady Gaga, Madonna and Katy Perry.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05From the Suffragettes to Cheryl Cole, women are leaders now.
0:37:05 > 0:37:08Freedom for women is a good thing.
0:37:08 > 0:37:09Go, girl power!
0:37:09 > 0:37:11AUDIENCE GIGGLING
0:37:11 > 0:37:15MUTED APPLAUSE
0:37:28 > 0:37:32Well done, girls - very...interesting point of view.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39# Just for tonight
0:37:41 > 0:37:43# We can pretend... #
0:37:43 > 0:37:49Now to our next debaters, Phoenix and Freddie, would you like to present your rebuttal, please?
0:37:49 > 0:37:53- I'd like to remind you to stick to the subject. - Are we allowed to use visual aids?
0:37:53 > 0:37:55- Absolutely not.- Shame, cos I'd something prepared.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Well you can't use it!
0:38:04 > 0:38:08Freddie, your rebuttal, please.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Feminism...is one kind of freedom,
0:38:15 > 0:38:20but...freedom means different things to different people.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Look, a lot of you don't know me.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26It's my first day here.
0:38:26 > 0:38:31But, to me, just being here, being able to run, to play footy,
0:38:31 > 0:38:35it probably seems like nothing to you, but I've been dreaming about it.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39To me, this is freedom.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42You take it for granted every single day.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45I know you've all heard stuff about me.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50So if you really want to know...
0:38:50 > 0:38:51I'll just show you.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56GASPING
0:39:06 > 0:39:08I had a heart transplant.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10A human heart, from another boy.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17James Andrew O'Connor.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20VOICE BECOMES FAINT AND ECHOING
0:39:20 > 0:39:23He was driving back from a training session with his dad.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26They got into a crash on the bypass. A drunk driver hit them.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30He was in a coma...
0:39:31 > 0:39:33..and he died.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37He was a boxer. A fighter.
0:39:37 > 0:39:3919 years old.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44Whole life ahead of him, then...nothing.
0:39:44 > 0:39:45All gone.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51Someone gave their life to give me the freedom I now have.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55And, I suppose, to some extent,
0:39:55 > 0:39:58I've been trying to live his life...
0:40:00 > 0:40:03..to carry on where he left off.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12I wish I could be like James.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17But I can't live a lie.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20And I can only be me.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Remarkable.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Well done, Freddie. Really, very well done.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45That's it.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59PULSING DRUMS AND LOUD BREATHING
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Sorry...
0:41:20 > 0:41:21To conclude, we have...
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Thank you, Mr Byrne.
0:41:27 > 0:41:32So, a huge round of applause for everyone involved this afternoon, thank you.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36The panel will now retire and work out the grades for everyone involved.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40If you listen carefully, you should be able to hear
0:41:40 > 0:41:43the sound of 50 grand being flushed down the toilet.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48Well, that was, er, interesting.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Well done.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Must be something in the air today.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59Poor lad, bad enough having heart trouble at my time of my life, but at his age...
0:41:59 > 0:42:03I don't know, affairs of the myogenic muscular organ, eh?
0:42:03 > 0:42:05You, erm, fancy a drink later?
0:42:05 > 0:42:07What, really? Unless you...
0:42:07 > 0:42:10No, the pub's perfect, I'll see you there.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19It was all a bit of a mess in there, weren't it?
0:42:19 > 0:42:22Yeah, well, we did our best under difficult circumstances, so...
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Let's go home and open a bottle of wine, eh?
0:42:24 > 0:42:27I can't tonight, something's come up.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Yeah? With who?
0:42:31 > 0:42:33One of my uni mates - she got dumped,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35I said I'd go round and take care of her.
0:42:35 > 0:42:40I tried to get out of it, but it was, you know, difficult.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Well, another night, eh?
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Yeah, sorry.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25Michael, what the hell is going on, are you all right?
0:43:28 > 0:43:30Leave me alone!
0:43:40 > 0:43:42Who do you think you are?
0:43:42 > 0:43:45You think I wanted any of this to happen? Do you?!
0:43:45 > 0:43:47You don't understand the situation.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50You've no idea how complicated this is, Wayne Johnson is an animal!
0:43:50 > 0:43:53- I just...- It's not enough that you try and blackmail me,
0:43:53 > 0:43:57now you send me, what, a funeral wreath? What was all that about?!
0:43:57 > 0:44:00- Do you want me dead?! - I don't know what you're talking about!
0:44:00 > 0:44:03- Come on, the crank calls, the threats...- What crank calls?
0:44:03 > 0:44:05Michael, stop it! Stop it!
0:44:05 > 0:44:07- Are you all right?- Yeah.
0:44:07 > 0:44:08Go home.
0:44:08 > 0:44:11- Is he all right?- Phoenix, go home.
0:44:11 > 0:44:12Michael?
0:44:17 > 0:44:19No, I'll walk.
0:44:19 > 0:44:20I said, I'll walk.
0:44:20 > 0:44:22- See you in a bit.- Freddie?
0:44:22 > 0:44:23Yeah?
0:44:23 > 0:44:27- Look, I'm, er...really sorry for earlier.- Right.
0:44:27 > 0:44:30So, how do you fancy coming to a party?
0:44:30 > 0:44:32Yeah?
0:44:32 > 0:44:35Uh-huh. I'll see you later, all right?
0:44:35 > 0:44:40Listen to me. Wherever they put you, they're not going to keep us apart, OK?
0:44:40 > 0:44:42What if I don't get to see you?
0:44:42 > 0:44:45I could end up in another school, another city.
0:44:45 > 0:44:48I've told you. I don't care where you end up. I'm not going to lose you.
0:44:48 > 0:44:52I can't believe this is happening. We were only having a laugh.
0:44:56 > 0:45:00- Why are you REALLY upset, Scout?- What?
0:45:00 > 0:45:05I mean...are you upset about going into foster care?
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Or are you upset about leaving me?
0:45:11 > 0:45:13I'm upset about leaving you.
0:45:16 > 0:45:18I've already lost one sister.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21I'm not going to lose another one.
0:45:28 > 0:45:32This isn't just about Phoenix mouthing off. Something is going on.
0:45:32 > 0:45:34- It's complicated.- Tell me.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39I think someone's stalking me.
0:45:39 > 0:45:40What?
0:45:40 > 0:45:43You know about the break-ins, but that's not the half of it.
0:45:43 > 0:45:46I've had my car keyed, all kinds of threats,
0:45:46 > 0:45:48crank calls at night, and now this.
0:45:48 > 0:45:52Why didn't you say something before?
0:45:54 > 0:45:57I didn't think I could trust anyone.
0:45:57 > 0:46:00You can trust me.
0:46:01 > 0:46:05Come here. Come here.
0:46:08 > 0:46:12No-one can be strong all the time, OK?
0:46:13 > 0:46:17I've told Jez that I'm busy tonight.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19You're not going to tell him?
0:46:19 > 0:46:22No, I am, just not tonight.
0:46:22 > 0:46:25We'll just have to trust that Linda doesn't say anything.
0:46:25 > 0:46:27I think that we should maybe get away,
0:46:27 > 0:46:33book a hotel, somewhere that you can relax and get a good night's sleep.
0:46:33 > 0:46:34KNOCK ON DOOR
0:46:34 > 0:46:36Michael...
0:46:36 > 0:46:39Hold...hold on a second.
0:46:47 > 0:46:52- Margaret, hi! Come in. - Is everything all right? I've been looking for you.
0:46:52 > 0:46:55If I didn't know better, I'd think you were trying to avoid me.
0:46:55 > 0:46:57Of course. Sorry.
0:47:00 > 0:47:02We were having a debrief.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04Actually, I was meaning to find you.
0:47:04 > 0:47:07I wanted to apologise for how I've been behaving. Sorry if I seemed...
0:47:09 > 0:47:12- ..you know...- Yes?
0:47:14 > 0:47:18Actually, I've been dealing with some issues outside of my work here.
0:47:18 > 0:47:22But I hope you'll agree that the entire school,
0:47:22 > 0:47:24students AND teachers, have put on a great show for you,
0:47:24 > 0:47:28and I can promise you, hand on heart, that any investment here
0:47:28 > 0:47:31will be well used and everyone will reap the rewards tenfold.
0:47:31 > 0:47:34I'm sorry, but on the basis of what I've seen today,
0:47:34 > 0:47:38I'm not going to be able to recommend Waterloo Road for the grant.
0:47:38 > 0:47:40Thank you for your hospitality.
0:47:40 > 0:47:43As you say, there's some real potential here with these kids.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46And Mrs Diamond is a real asset to your team.
0:47:46 > 0:47:49But as a head teacher...
0:47:49 > 0:47:52frankly, you need to leave your own troubles, whatever they may be,
0:47:52 > 0:47:55- outside the door.- I know today wasn't my finest hour.
0:47:55 > 0:47:57There are mitigating circumstances.
0:47:57 > 0:48:00We were short-staffed, I've got kids playing truant.
0:48:00 > 0:48:03The decision is final, Michael.
0:48:03 > 0:48:05I'm sorry.
0:48:29 > 0:48:32Hiya. Look, I've been thinking,
0:48:32 > 0:48:34and I want to give you this towards the rent.
0:48:36 > 0:48:37How?
0:48:37 > 0:48:41The Bur-mobile was a better investment than you thought.
0:48:43 > 0:48:45Thanks, but it's all right, I can get the money.
0:48:45 > 0:48:47I'm not your problem any more.
0:48:49 > 0:48:50You take care, Vics.
0:49:04 > 0:49:06Steady on.
0:49:06 > 0:49:09Cheers for letting me come, Phoenix. I hope we can be mates.
0:49:09 > 0:49:11Yeah, sure...
0:49:12 > 0:49:14MOBILE BEEPS
0:49:17 > 0:49:21Right, who wants to go outside and play Ice To See You?
0:49:21 > 0:49:23Yeah? Come on.
0:49:23 > 0:49:27Ready...steady...go!
0:49:27 > 0:49:31Go on, get in there! Go on! Oh, yeah, go on, Finn lad!
0:49:53 > 0:49:55# Now I'm only falling apart
0:49:58 > 0:50:03# There's nothing I can do A total eclipse of the heart... #
0:50:09 > 0:50:13Sorry about that. I just made some room for the buffet.
0:50:13 > 0:50:16# Now there's only love in the dark
0:50:16 > 0:50:20# Nothing I can say A total eclipse of the heart... #
0:50:33 > 0:50:35- So...- Yep.
0:50:40 > 0:50:42CLEARS THROAT
0:50:43 > 0:50:46I'm no good at this dating lark. It's not really my thing.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49No, me neither.
0:50:49 > 0:50:51Why don't we just skip the preamble
0:50:51 > 0:50:53and have a night of wild, passionate sex?
0:50:55 > 0:50:56SHE LAUGHS
0:51:05 > 0:51:07I've always liked you, Rhona.
0:51:07 > 0:51:08I'm Shona.
0:51:19 > 0:51:22All right, mate, how's the quest going?
0:51:22 > 0:51:24- Do you even have to ask? - FINN BELCHES
0:51:26 > 0:51:28Oh, this is ridiculous.
0:51:29 > 0:51:33Look at all these birds. We've got to sort our heads out,
0:51:33 > 0:51:35get back in the game.
0:51:39 > 0:51:41- Hiya.- Hi.
0:51:43 > 0:51:45What?
0:51:46 > 0:51:50- Knock it off, Ro!- What? - It is obvious
0:51:50 > 0:51:53you're not over Vicki. I'm not up for being your rebound.
0:51:53 > 0:51:56- It's not like that.- Oh, really?
0:51:56 > 0:52:00Look, yeah, I admit that I'm having a crap time of it at the moment.
0:52:00 > 0:52:02But that doesn't mean that I don't like you.
0:52:07 > 0:52:11All right, well, let's not rush things, yeah?
0:52:12 > 0:52:15And you need to look after Finn. He's wasted.
0:52:15 > 0:52:17I'm going home, all right?
0:52:17 > 0:52:20What was going on with Mr Byrne today?
0:52:20 > 0:52:22He seemed to have a meltdown. Honestly, it was bad.
0:52:22 > 0:52:26Excuse me. I just want to let you know you look really fit tonight.
0:52:26 > 0:52:29- And you're drunk.- So what?
0:52:29 > 0:52:31- No, Finn, come on.- Finn, get off.
0:52:33 > 0:52:35LAUGHTER
0:52:35 > 0:52:37Let's go.
0:52:40 > 0:52:43- Finn, come back, mate. - Leave me alone.
0:52:45 > 0:52:49BOTH: # You and me could write a bad romance
0:52:49 > 0:52:50# Woah-oh-oh-oh
0:52:50 > 0:52:53# I want your love and all your lover's revenge
0:52:53 > 0:52:56# You and me could write a bad romance
0:52:56 > 0:53:00# Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
0:53:00 > 0:53:05# Oh-oh-oh, caught in a bad romance... #
0:53:11 > 0:53:14Down it, down it! Down it, down it!
0:53:20 > 0:53:24OK. That's Denzil there, Thursday with a fiver at five-to-one.
0:53:24 > 0:53:27- What's all this?- I'm taking some bets.- What on?
0:53:27 > 0:53:29On when we think Mr Byrne's going to quit.
0:53:29 > 0:53:33The guy's obviously cracking up. You seen him in the debate today.
0:53:33 > 0:53:36He's a goner. You want in?
0:53:36 > 0:53:38What?
0:53:38 > 0:53:41I tell you what, I'll give you ten-to-one on him never coming back.
0:53:50 > 0:53:53This is great. I don't know why you'd want to give up all this
0:53:53 > 0:53:57- just to join the Army. - I'm not going into the Army, mate.
0:53:57 > 0:54:00You what? I thought you were dead set on it.
0:54:00 > 0:54:03Nah, I never really wanted to join up.
0:54:03 > 0:54:05I just didn't want to be here.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08Freddie?
0:54:09 > 0:54:11Are you all right?
0:54:11 > 0:54:13I'm all right.
0:54:13 > 0:54:14Honestly.
0:54:17 > 0:54:19Freddie?
0:54:29 > 0:54:31Freddie!
0:55:04 > 0:55:08Phoenix is going to kill me. Tell him I'll pay him for any damage.
0:55:08 > 0:55:10Don't worry about it. It's a house party -
0:55:10 > 0:55:14someone was bound to throw up or break something at some point.
0:55:14 > 0:55:17You kinda killed two birds with one stone.
0:55:19 > 0:55:22- Are you going to be all right, though?- Yeah. I think so.
0:55:26 > 0:55:28HE RETCHES
0:55:28 > 0:55:30Look, Freddie, not everything in life
0:55:30 > 0:55:32has to be a competition.
0:55:32 > 0:55:35Why don't you just take some time and chill out a bit?
0:55:35 > 0:55:36I just wanted to show people...
0:55:36 > 0:55:40I know what you was trying to do, but you can't do it all in one day.
0:55:40 > 0:55:42Do you remember what you said in your speech?
0:55:45 > 0:55:47I'm sorry about today. I should have stuck up for you.
0:55:47 > 0:55:50Nobody's perfect, right?
0:55:50 > 0:55:51Right.
0:55:56 > 0:55:58This is all my fault.
0:55:58 > 0:56:02- This whole school was counting on me, and I blew it. - You're only human.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05It didn't work out this time. There will be other opportunities.
0:56:05 > 0:56:08I don't know what I would have done without you today, Sian.
0:56:08 > 0:56:12You don't have to come, you know? I'll be all right.
0:56:13 > 0:56:15I want to come.
0:56:22 > 0:56:26I love you, Sian.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30Do you know that?
0:57:15 > 0:57:17PHONE RINGS
0:57:20 > 0:57:23'You're through to Sian. I'm unavailable right now,
0:57:23 > 0:57:26'but leave me a message and I'll get back to you when I can.'
0:57:45 > 0:57:47- I think you've got the wrong idea. - Want to have sex?
