0:00:02 > 0:00:03My husband's very attractive,

0:00:03 > 0:00:06so don't beat yourself up you've fallen for him, but I'm back now

0:00:06 > 0:00:09and I'd ask you to give me and my family some space to sort things out.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Are you saying you want to close the school down?

0:00:11 > 0:00:16No, we just need to find out what's going wrong and why, from someone with inside knowledge.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18Are you asking me to spy?

0:00:18 > 0:00:20That's got nothing to do with you, we're over!

0:00:20 > 0:00:23- What's all the shouting about? - You're going to find out anyway.

0:00:23 > 0:00:27- Vicki!- That slapper slept with my boyfriend.- Hey!

0:00:27 > 0:00:30- Sam! Sam! ROSE! - What's your problem?

0:00:30 > 0:00:32What have you got to worry about?

0:00:32 > 0:00:39I've got cancer! I've spoken to my doctor and I know now, I know there's nothing more they can do for me...

0:00:39 > 0:00:41I know I'm dying.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Come on, you two, brush your teeth or you'll be late for school.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23I have.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27Denzil, you haven't been anywhere near that bathroom and you know it.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39The boys are just brushing their teeth.

0:01:41 > 0:01:46You look tired. Are you sure you're OK sleeping on that lumpy sofa? Honestly, I don't mind swapping.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Don't be daft. I'm fine.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51C'mon, lads, get your shoes on, we're going.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55I'll just nip up, say bye to Sam.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58C'mon, c'mon! Get your shoes.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Good boy. Put your foot in there. Go on.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Put your foot in there for me.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Right, that's us off, then, love.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08You want me to bring Lauren back after school?

0:02:10 > 0:02:12You all right?

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- You had your pills?- Yeah.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Tom, I need to ask you something, without you telling my mum.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- OK...- Only cos she'd say no.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Well, if your mum'd say no...

0:02:27 > 0:02:31But only because she doesn't want me to see 'im.

0:02:32 > 0:02:33My dad.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39She says she doesn't even know where he's gone.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41- Well,- I- don't know where he is.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43And even if I did, look...

0:02:43 > 0:02:45he's dangerous.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49- You saw that the last time he showed up.- I know he's no good...

0:02:49 > 0:02:55but he's still my dad. You could help me.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59D'you think it's fair...

0:02:59 > 0:03:03- to bring him back into everyone's lives?- No.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05I wouldn't do that.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07You could take me to him.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Tom, you'll be late!

0:03:10 > 0:03:13Maybe when you're a bit stronger.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Eh, I didn't say no.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19- But you got to talk to your mum about it.- That's a no, then.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24- Everything all right?- Yeah.

0:03:24 > 0:03:29Was just saying that maybe Tom could take me for a drive sometime.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31You're joking, right?

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Darlin', you can have your friends round here anytime, but...

0:03:35 > 0:03:38you're no way well enough to go out and about right now.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40"Right now"? So, when, Mum?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42- Well, it could set you back.- So?

0:03:42 > 0:03:46Look, look, let's talk about it after school, yeah?

0:03:46 > 0:03:49In the meantime, you get some rest.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Baby, I've got to go to the shop to collect your new medicines.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01I'll be a couple of hours. Will you be OK?

0:04:22 > 0:04:23Wait up.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26I made you some lunch. Take Aiden's, too? He wouldn't be seen dead carrying it.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28And I would?

0:04:28 > 0:04:32I thought maybe if he picked it up from your office at lunch, you'd have a chance to...

0:04:32 > 0:04:35You've hardly spoke to him since you caught him with that girl.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37He's your son, Rob.

0:04:37 > 0:04:44I kind of know that, Naomi. Yeah, I was with him when he pulled the same crap at his last school.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46- Where were you?- I'm here NOW.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48For all the good it's doing.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24Karen?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Yeah, when you've got a second, can we talk?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30If it's about work, can you talk to Chris?

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Otherwise, I've got a really busy day ahead of me.

0:05:38 > 0:05:43Right, you know where I am if you need me, mate. Yeah?

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Yeah.

0:05:47 > 0:05:48Aiden.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Can you just explain to Jess how it happened?

0:05:53 > 0:05:56She knows very well how it happened.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57That's the problem.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02Not exactly love's young dream...

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Only cos they got busted.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Reckon they'd still be at it if Vicki hadn't spilled the beans?

0:06:07 > 0:06:11- They could get it together for all I care.- Yeah, me, too.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17Well, obviously, give Rose a call first, clear it with her.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20- I think Sam could do with a bit of distraction, that's all.- Definitely.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24MOBILE BEEPS

0:06:25 > 0:06:26It's Sam.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Well, come on, then.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39CRACKING, GIRLS SCREAM

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Hey. Hey!

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Come on, hand 'em over.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45- Get your own. - That's enough of your cheek.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Go on...

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Very good. Nice one, Chalky.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02- You all right?- Karen.- No change?

0:07:02 > 0:07:03Nothing.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I could kill Aiden for what he did to Jess.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09There is the little matter of your wife staying with you.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11It's only temporary.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13I want to talk about it, Karen refuses.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Refuses?

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Look, what are you always telling me, hey?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Stand up for yourself.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22What are you, a man or a mouse?

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Listen up, folks.

0:07:30 > 0:07:37- I've got a PR lady coming in today, helping to raise the profile of the school.- A PR woman?

0:07:37 > 0:07:40Yes. Linda Wicks, Public Relations.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43We've got to try and change people's perception of us.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47- especially in the light of recent negative events.- "Negative events"?

0:07:47 > 0:07:52Abandoned babies, harbouring a murderer, folk chaining themselves to railings?

0:07:52 > 0:07:57Thank you, Grantly. So, if you see her in the corridors, please try and make her feel welcome.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03Karen, I thought the LA dealt with our PR?

0:08:03 > 0:08:08Well, there's nothing to say we can't pay for it out of our own budget.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11She's a local outfit, she's reasonable.

0:08:11 > 0:08:16Look, Chris, I want parents to know that Waterloo Road is still a school of quality.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Karen's right.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Everybody uses PR these days.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Let's be progressive!

0:08:35 > 0:08:37There's no phone number on there, anyway.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39I don't want to call him.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42I want to see him face-to-face.

0:08:42 > 0:08:46- I owe him that.- Why, Sam? All he's ever done is hurt you.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Yeah, but he didn't know I was dying then, did he?

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Things change when you haven't got the time.

0:08:52 > 0:08:53Your mum'll go mental.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I know. That's why we need to go now.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Please, before she gets back.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05I've got the address in my phone, and I know how to get there.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07I just can't without you two.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Come on.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22We should have discussed it before you just went ahead and booked her.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24I had to act, Chris. I couldn't waste the time.

0:09:24 > 0:09:30I'm your deputy! Surely my opinion about how to save the school's reputation counts for something?

0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Two heads and all that?- I wasn't trying to keep you out of things...

0:09:33 > 0:09:36I just didn't want to hang around once I'd decided,

0:09:36 > 0:09:38and I hope you'll go with it. KNOCK ON DOOR

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Linda Wicks, Solutions PR.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Karen Fisher. And this is my Deputy Head, Chris Mead.

0:09:44 > 0:09:49- Thanks for coming in.- So, I've had some preliminary thoughts.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Good.

0:09:51 > 0:09:55Well, it's a complicated situation here.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57SHE MOUTHS About a year ago,

0:09:57 > 0:10:01we merged with John Fosters, so our student base is quite diverse.

0:10:01 > 0:10:05I think we need to go for a bold strategy.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Put out a glossy brochure.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09We want to change the public perception.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14There's nothing like visuals. Don't worry, Karen.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17Whoever says you can't polish a turd hasn't met me yet.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Turd?!- Come on, you don't need to impress me - the school's a mess.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24I've seen your stats. We need to be aggressive.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28I'd like to mock something up today. If you like what you see,

0:10:28 > 0:10:33we'll run with it, distribute it strategically, then follow up with some sort of open-day event.

0:10:35 > 0:10:36Great.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Yes. As long as we target the intake.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41That's what I'm here for!

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Richard.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46It's Eleanor Chaudry, from Waterloo Road.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51I was just wondering if you were around at some point today...

0:10:51 > 0:10:52just for a little chat?

0:10:54 > 0:10:56In confidence?

0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Mate.- I ain't your mate. - So, logarithms.- Hit me.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11I mean it. if it'll make you feel better, just hit me.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Look just shut it, yeah? - Ey! Shh, please.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17The logarithm of a number to a given base is the power or exponent

0:11:17 > 0:11:23- to which the base must be raised in order to produce that number. - What!- If you'd done it, I'd hit you.

0:11:23 > 0:11:24I'm gutted, Ronan.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26- You are?!- I'll hit myself, then.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29See?

0:11:29 > 0:11:30What, you think this is funny?

0:11:30 > 0:11:34- You're a dickhead, you know that?- I know, and I told you, I deserve a...

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- ALL: Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! - You asked for it!

0:11:39 > 0:11:41He's not worth it, Ronan.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43CRACK

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Yeah. That's right.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46I can make myself heard, too.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Give it some, Iron Man.- Yeah, I am.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50I am Iron Man!

0:11:50 > 0:11:54Now you, you get to the nurse. the rest of you, back to your seats!

0:11:56 > 0:11:58It's a while since we had a refurb.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03- Always something more urgent to spend money on.- Yeah, like a public relations officer?

0:12:03 > 0:12:08So, I don't know how peeling paint will marry into your glossy brochure.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Oh, we'll just photoshop it.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12What...

0:12:12 > 0:12:14- What's happened?- I hit him.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- I asked him to.- Oh, we'll just leave this out the brochure, eh?

0:12:17 > 0:12:18- Chris, could you...?- Yes.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Linda, do you want to come with me?

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Right, let's get you off to the nurse.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29- You don't have to go through with this, you know, Sam.- Yes, I do.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32- I think we should go back.- No.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Come on, Sam, you're setting yourself up for a fall. I mean, why hasn't he been in touch?

0:12:36 > 0:12:40Because he was too embarrassed about what happened before.

0:12:40 > 0:12:41I told him I hated him.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44But...everyone deserves a second chance, right?

0:12:44 > 0:12:48Don't know. You're already upset. What if he upsets you even more?

0:12:48 > 0:12:53- Look, I can't die without a dad, Finn.- Right.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03We could make a feature out of your sportsperson of the year. Who've you got?

0:13:03 > 0:13:07- Actually we don't have a sportsperson of the year.- Chris?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Have you had Finn Sharkey or Lauren Andrews in your first couple of classes?

0:13:10 > 0:13:13No. They were both no-shows.

0:13:13 > 0:13:17- What about Sambuca Kelly? Obviously good at netball. She a looker?- Um...

0:13:17 > 0:13:21I mean, it's not essential, but if she's got a face, it surely helps.

0:13:21 > 0:13:26Yeah, actually, Sam's not well. She's got cancer, so she won't be up for doing a photo shoot.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Ah, poor kid.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Still, though, that's a double-page spread.

0:13:31 > 0:13:38"Cancer girl smiles bravely in the face of illness as she leads Waterloo Road into netball victory."

0:13:38 > 0:13:40- Here, has she lost her hair yet? - No. She hasn't.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42Um, this is Tom Clarkson, he's our Head of English.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Linda Wicks, public relations.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48We could stick a scarf on her, imply she's going that way.

0:13:48 > 0:13:53- Is this a joke? You'd use a sick child to sell a brochure?!- Sell an image, Tom.

0:13:53 > 0:13:54It's Mr Clarkson to you.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58It's what I've been asked to do in a professional capacity.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00I know it's cynical, but the tale of one girl's

0:14:00 > 0:14:05- courage in the face of adversity always gets the sympathy vote. - Linda.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08- And it implies that Waterloo Road's got a heart.- You stupid woman!

0:14:08 > 0:14:13- Sam is not an image, or a marketing tool. She's a sick little girl, and she's dying.- All right, Tom!

0:14:13 > 0:14:18If she's that far gone, fair dos. Just trying to use your assets for the greater good.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21- I've never hit a woman, but there's always a first.- Mr Clarkson!

0:14:21 > 0:14:25- Chris, can you take Linda to the cafe?- Yeah.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27Can you come to my office now?

0:14:31 > 0:14:35You threatened violence to a woman in our school.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38I know. Look... I just, I lost it.

0:14:38 > 0:14:39I understand...

0:14:39 > 0:14:43and I know she's not the most subtle of people, but, Tom, that is unacceptable.

0:14:43 > 0:14:48- It was just hearing the way she was talking about Sam like that. I mean...- Tom, go home.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Take some time for yourself...

0:14:50 > 0:14:53You've been under the most enormous strain with the Kellys.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56I don't need time for myself. Every second counts right now.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58MOBILE RINGS

0:14:58 > 0:15:00It's Rose.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Rose...

0:15:02 > 0:15:07Eh? Just calm down. Well, where is she?!

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Just leave it with me, OK?

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Look, she's in a right state. Sam's gone AWOL.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Just go. Go. I'll cover your classes.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19And take as much time as you need.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Well, I'll knock first, then. Y'know, pave the way?

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Is Reynold in? Reynold Kelly?

0:16:06 > 0:16:08She's got her mobile switched off.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11- Come on, we'll find her.- Why would she put herself in danger, Tom?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14- She can barely get to the garden on her own...- I think, maybe...

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Look, I think she might not be on her own.- What?

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Lauren and Finn went AWOL from school this morning.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23They know they can come here any time. Why would they take her out?

0:16:23 > 0:16:25They would if Sam asked them to.

0:16:27 > 0:16:28You know something about this.

0:16:28 > 0:16:34She was banging on this morning, she wanted me to look someone up for her, take her to go and see him.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37- Someone?- She didn't want to get you worried or upset, Rose.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40Tom, so help me, I'm not playing games here.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42She wants to find her dad.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Say goodbye. I said no.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Maybe she's asked her pals.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53- Please.- Look, we just need to speak to him. It's about...

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Whatever Reynold has done, it's not my fault.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Reynold's my dad.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Well, you'll get nowt out of me.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06I don't want anything from you.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07Look, she doesn't want anything.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- She just wants to speak to him. - Take it easy, Sam.

0:17:10 > 0:17:11Look, she's ill.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14Like, proper ill, you need to let her in.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18You can call the police, they can throw me in jail, but I'm staying here till my dad gets back.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Then you'll have a long wait, pet.

0:17:23 > 0:17:24My son's in the nick.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26And he's doing life.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Reynold kicked a guy's head in,

0:17:32 > 0:17:35just cos he skipped the queue in a car park.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39The fella died.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43That's why I didn't tell Sam.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47I didn't want that in her head...

0:17:49 > 0:17:53..and I didn't want him robbing me of what little time she's got left.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Isn't that her choice, Rose?

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Well, then it's the wrong choice!

0:18:00 > 0:18:04Every time she pushes herself too hard, she goes downhill. You've seen it, Tom.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15You stay here in case she comes back. I'm going after them.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Did he, er...

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Did he ever talk about me?

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Well, he was banging on about some kid a few years ago.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35But it was more about the mum.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38He wanted to get one up on her.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- Piss-head, apparently. Ring any bells?- You do realise...

0:18:41 > 0:18:43you being his mum...

0:18:43 > 0:18:47- does make you my nan.- Listen, love.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51If what you're saying's true...

0:18:51 > 0:18:54I mean, I'm heartfelt sorry for you. I really am.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57Lass your age...

0:18:57 > 0:18:59I mean, it's a shame.

0:18:59 > 0:19:04But I'm 65 years old and I've washed my hands of my own son.

0:19:04 > 0:19:09And his...poorly daughter is not my problem.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11What is wrong with you?

0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Your own flesh and blood is askin' you...- Just leave it.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17Obviously we're both disappointed, yeah?

0:19:20 > 0:19:23If you want to see him,

0:19:23 > 0:19:26that's your lookout.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Last I heard, he'd been transferred to Barlinnie.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30That's in Scotland, babe.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Well, if you see him first,

0:19:35 > 0:19:37you'll tell him about my cancer?

0:19:38 > 0:19:40I won't see him first.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Finn, let's just take her for a coffee and something to eat, yeah?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48My advice?

0:19:48 > 0:19:50Forget about Reynold.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53You're in Blackpool. You're kids.

0:19:53 > 0:19:57Give her a day out whilst she can still flamin' enjoy it.

0:19:57 > 0:20:03- Don't tell us how to look after her! Least we actually care how she feels.- Eh?

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Why does it matter? Any of it?

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Oi.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Thanks for nothing.

0:20:17 > 0:20:22Karen? There's a few things we need to get straight.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26We work under the same roof and you're my boss.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Not practical to be arguing.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31No-one's arguing except your son.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33He's in with the nurse with a punched nose.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Surprise me?

0:20:35 > 0:20:40Maybe if you WERE surprised more often, he wouldn't feel the need to shock you.

0:20:40 > 0:20:41Whoa, wait a minute...

0:20:41 > 0:20:45I know you've got a bone to pick with me, but don't pass remarks on my parenting skills.

0:20:45 > 0:20:51As head teacher, it is my job to question any dysfunctional child's home situation.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54But now his mother's back in situ, perhaps things'll improve.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57All right, I will apologise for my son,

0:20:57 > 0:21:00the way he is, and for not telling you

0:21:00 > 0:21:03that my wife was back, but it was only temporary.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06No, it's none of my business.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Listen, don't overthink this.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13We had dinner once. It was never going to go anywhere, so let's just forget about it.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Karen, is what I've done really so bad?

0:21:16 > 0:21:20Or are you just angry with every man in the world because of Charlie?

0:21:20 > 0:21:23- You are out of order. - YOU'RE out of order.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30That's it. Ready...and smile.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35Smile, girls.

0:21:35 > 0:21:36Got some beauties for you here.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38I'll, uh, leave you to it.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43This caff could be the jewel in the crown of the brochure, methinks.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Plus, you've got professional live music.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49Ronan Burley isn't professional. He asked me if he could DJ this evening.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Bung him a fiver. He's paid, ergo, he's a professional.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56You can have the best club in the world, but if no-one knows about it, it'll close.

0:21:56 > 0:22:02Linda, this isn't the Hacienda. We're a community cafe and we're just starting out.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05- Hey, that's more like it,- What?

0:22:05 > 0:22:09- Face of the social side. Does she work here?- No.

0:22:09 > 0:22:16Does now. Sweetcheeks, how would you like to feature in the new glossy brochure advertising "The Cave"?

0:22:16 > 0:22:19- The Cave? - New name for the caff, doll.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- Works for me.- Linda, a word.

0:22:23 > 0:22:28I know you're only here to help, but I really do need you to understand my brief.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31I want to enhance our image,

0:22:31 > 0:22:33not tell a pack of lies.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37It's not lying, it's PR!

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Look, Karen.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42I've seen and read enough about this school to know it's a hard sell.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45But I can turn it around. It's what I do.

0:22:45 > 0:22:49- I suppose...- Then leave me to it. I'll catch up in a couple of hours.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Trust me.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Fine.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58So, what, I'm under some sort of house arrest now, am I?

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- You just need to calm down, Aiden. - I'm going back after lunch.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03No, you're not!

0:23:03 > 0:23:06Not until you give me some respect.

0:23:06 > 0:23:10I work at that school, and you're nothing but an embarrassment.

0:23:10 > 0:23:15I'm the one who gets punched in the face, and all you care about is your poxy reputation.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19My reputation is the only thing that is keeping us afloat, you stupid...

0:23:21 > 0:23:23..selfish...

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I'm 45 years old.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37I was made redundant during the recession.

0:23:39 > 0:23:45And now I'm working as a caretaker and I'm taking night classes

0:23:45 > 0:23:47just so you can have a better life...

0:23:50 > 0:23:53I'm sick of it, Aiden.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Sick.

0:23:55 > 0:23:56What's going on?

0:23:58 > 0:24:00I've had a really bad day.

0:24:00 > 0:24:05Want to see if you can talk some sense into him? Y'know, peas in a pod.

0:24:10 > 0:24:15- What's happened to your face?- Dad's not the only one having a bad day.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27Sam, the guy's just a genetic fact of your life.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30I mean, a bad gene, if that. Just... Just forget about him.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33That's easy for you to say.

0:24:33 > 0:24:34Lauren, you've got the perfect dad.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39He watches your school plays, he takes you on holiday,

0:24:39 > 0:24:42he gives a toss if you do well in your GCSEs.

0:24:42 > 0:24:43He'll give me some right crap if I didn't.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47He looked after you when you were poorly.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Imagine if you had cancer.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55Well, if you still want to try and find your dad, we can.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58We know what prison he's in, we can apply for a visit.

0:24:58 > 0:24:59What's the point?

0:24:59 > 0:25:03I mean, I only wanted him to tell me that he loved me...

0:25:03 > 0:25:06..to see it on his face.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09But if he doesn't care, then, why should I?

0:25:11 > 0:25:13OK, well we didn't find your dad.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15But that old lady was right.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18We're here now. Why don't we go see the sights?

0:25:18 > 0:25:21I don't know about you two, but I've never been up that Tower.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23And there's the Pleasure Beach!

0:25:23 > 0:25:25Sam...

0:25:25 > 0:25:26You've still got US, yeah?

0:25:29 > 0:25:33You take her out for some air, while I, er, pay the bill.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Quick, John! Done one!

0:26:04 > 0:26:08- Leg it.- You what?!- Couldn't pay, have to go!- Ahh!

0:26:17 > 0:26:19Whooo!

0:26:21 > 0:26:25Reynold's mother says she's OK, she was just a bit upset.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29Reckons the three of them are going to hang around here for a bit.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31I'll give you a call as soon as.

0:26:31 > 0:26:32Bye.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35You've got my number if they turn up again.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38I don't think they'll be back here.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41I didn't exactly give them a warm welcome.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Look, please, understand.

0:26:43 > 0:26:48I never meant to upset the girl, it's just,

0:26:48 > 0:26:52I can't have him back in my life...any more.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57You can't have had it easy.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59I feel bad about her.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01The lass.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05She wants a real dad, not him.

0:27:05 > 0:27:06Look...

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Give her this, will you?

0:27:11 > 0:27:14Tell her it was when he was a good 'un.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16She might've liked him.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25# Put your glass up

0:27:25 > 0:27:27- # Pour a little more - Eskiboy

0:27:27 > 0:27:30- # You already give me the green light - Roll Deep

0:27:30 > 0:27:32# Stop!

0:27:32 > 0:27:33# Take a look

0:27:33 > 0:27:36# Left and right

0:27:36 > 0:27:40# Is it clear for me to go?

0:27:40 > 0:27:41# Let me know

0:27:41 > 0:27:45# Is it me that you've been waitin' for?

0:27:45 > 0:27:48- # Put your hands up - Put your hands up

0:27:48 > 0:27:50- # Take it to the floor - Take it to the floor

0:27:50 > 0:27:54- # You already gave me the green light - I'm giving you the green light

0:27:54 > 0:27:55# Stop. #

0:27:55 > 0:27:58Right... You can come up front, and the twins.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Eh, give me your specs, love.

0:28:00 > 0:28:04- Oh... I don't wear glasses. - Just need to make you look a bit less gormless, sweets.

0:28:04 > 0:28:05LAUGHTER

0:28:07 > 0:28:08Oh, no, sorry, love.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10Work the Clearasil and come back to me next year.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12LAUGHTER

0:28:12 > 0:28:14I'm only kiddin', darlin'.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17We've all been there. But seriously, want to help? Pull the blinds down.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20Let's get some lighting in here.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27- Excuse me?- Yep?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Linda Wicks...Solutions PR.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Rob Scotcher. Site manager.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35You couldn't spare us a moment, could you?

0:28:50 > 0:28:52It's amazing.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56Look down. They're like ants.

0:29:02 > 0:29:04Looks like you're actually in the sky.

0:29:07 > 0:29:11Just birds and...clouds...

0:29:13 > 0:29:15..and then I'll be up here, I suppose.

0:29:15 > 0:29:18- Please don't, Sam.- Don't you want to know, though, Lauren?

0:29:18 > 0:29:23- Where you go?- I want you here, now.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25You're my best friend, and you always will be.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28- No matter where we are. - I WILL be gone.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33And you'll be sad.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36And you'll need a shoulder to cry on.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39And so will Finn.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42I'm just saying that

0:29:42 > 0:29:44I would understand...

0:29:44 > 0:29:45What?!

0:29:45 > 0:29:48I've thought it through, and... I wouldn't mind at all.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Ew! Sam, that's gross!

0:29:50 > 0:29:53- What d'you mean, 'gross'? Finn's gorgeous!- No, he's not!

0:29:53 > 0:29:55He's... he's your boyfriend.

0:29:55 > 0:29:56You could have him.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Lauren, you're supposed to be pleased!

0:29:59 > 0:30:02Pleased? Finn's so not my type.

0:30:02 > 0:30:03And I'm not his.

0:30:03 > 0:30:09I mean, yeah, we're friends, but that's all we ever will be, take my word for it.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12OK. Don't be so definite.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14I was only trying to be nice.

0:30:14 > 0:30:18Don't. You're freaking me out.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21I don't want you to go, Sam.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27And I definitely don't want your boyfriend.

0:30:27 > 0:30:28Da da!

0:30:32 > 0:30:35- What?- Nothing.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37Just timing.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40I got us a half day family pass at the Pleasure Beach.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43It was just cheaper than us all paying separate. You still up for it?

0:30:43 > 0:30:45- Are you kiddin'? - Er, just the slow rides.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47What? This is my last chance...

0:30:47 > 0:30:50I'm going on the roller coaster, with or without you!

0:30:50 > 0:30:53- I think you're lovely.- Ah, thanks.

0:30:53 > 0:30:54The feeling's mutual.

0:30:59 > 0:31:04When you roll a fair dice there are six possible outcomes,

0:31:04 > 0:31:06one, two, three, four, five, six.

0:31:06 > 0:31:11And there are three ways of getting odd numbers - one, three and five.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15So the probability of getting an odd number

0:31:15 > 0:31:18equals the, er, the amount of ways of getting

0:31:18 > 0:31:24the number, divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26So... what's the answer, Denzil?

0:31:26 > 0:31:29Mr Kelly! I'm talking to you.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33BANGER EXPLODES

0:31:33 > 0:31:36That's right, sunshine. I'm talking to you.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Oi, you can't do that.

0:31:39 > 0:31:40BANGER EXPLODES

0:31:40 > 0:31:43C'mon. What's the probability? Eh?

0:31:43 > 0:31:45BELL RINGS

0:31:47 > 0:31:49Where're d'you think you're going?

0:31:49 > 0:31:53- I was just...- Oh, no, no!

0:31:53 > 0:31:56Be seated. You've clearly missed the majority of today's lesson.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00- Let's, let's go through it again. - Please, Mr Chalk.- I SAID SIT DOWN!

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Oh...come on.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12HE SNIFFLES

0:32:12 > 0:32:16Look, mate, I... I didn't mean to shock you.

0:32:16 > 0:32:19I was just trying to prove a point, that's all.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24C'mon, it'll be all right.

0:32:24 > 0:32:25It's not you...

0:32:25 > 0:32:28It's just, everything sucks!

0:32:44 > 0:32:46# Blame it all on me when

0:32:46 > 0:32:51# I forget to defend Everything that we worked out

0:32:51 > 0:32:55# Something in her wording I cannot help searching

0:32:55 > 0:32:58# For what memory found

0:33:00 > 0:33:04# Thought it stopped just as it starts

0:33:04 > 0:33:07# But that is not what you are... #

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Yes!

0:33:10 > 0:33:11THEY CHEER

0:33:14 > 0:33:19It must be, er... really hard for you.

0:33:21 > 0:33:23The worst thing is me.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25I'm evil.

0:33:25 > 0:33:33I kind of want her to stay sick, so Tom, Mr Clarkson, won't go.

0:33:34 > 0:33:40When he's here, Mum's, like, calmer.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42Everything is.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45Just like a normal family.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48And I know when Sam dies...

0:33:50 > 0:33:54..we'll lose him 'n'all. Cos he's got no reason to stay.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08And I don't know what Mum's going to do when it all kicks off.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Or us.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13And...

0:34:13 > 0:34:15I know that's sounds selfish,

0:34:17 > 0:34:20but I should just be upset about Sam.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22No...no, Denzil.

0:34:22 > 0:34:26What you're saying makes perfect sense.

0:34:27 > 0:34:31You are so brave saying it out loud.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34It means you're starting to

0:34:34 > 0:34:37sort it out in your head.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41And look, I'm sure Mr Clarkson'll still be there for you...

0:34:41 > 0:34:44- after.- In school, maybe.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47I was going to go find him just now.

0:34:47 > 0:34:51Well, the thing is, Denzil...

0:34:51 > 0:34:53Mr Clarkson's gone home to help your mum.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56I'm covering his class.

0:34:56 > 0:34:57Right.

0:34:57 > 0:35:01Listen, shall I give him a ring for you?

0:35:01 > 0:35:03I'm sure he'd want to speak to you.

0:35:04 > 0:35:08I don't understand why you're being so nice.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Well, I am quite nice, actually.

0:35:11 > 0:35:12We all thought you were a loser.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17Right.

0:35:17 > 0:35:18Fair dos.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21Well, not me... I mean.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23Forget it.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25Listen, if you...

0:35:25 > 0:35:28if you want to talk about anything, just.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30Thanks.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33But, you won't tell anyone I been crying, will you?

0:35:34 > 0:35:37There's nothing wrong with crying.

0:35:44 > 0:35:48# Here I go again

0:35:48 > 0:35:54# Giddy up, holding on again

0:35:54 > 0:35:59# Giddy up, holding on

0:35:59 > 0:36:02# Holding on

0:36:02 > 0:36:07# Holding on... #

0:36:07 > 0:36:09THEY SCREAM

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Wey!

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Told you, but would you listen? No.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Well, I knew those nausea tablets would come in useful.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- C'mon. We should go.- No.

0:37:00 > 0:37:04- I want to go swimming. - She wants to go swimming!

0:37:04 > 0:37:10OK, obviously this is just an example of the real thing...

0:37:10 > 0:37:13just to show you what's possible, if you will.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Oh, my god!

0:37:18 > 0:37:24Sorry, am I missing something? Um, those trees aren't actually there.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26Neither is the third floor.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29People will notice that when they come.

0:37:29 > 0:37:30And come they will.

0:37:30 > 0:37:34And once they're here, they might as well stay a while... get me?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36So we're going to lure them with a lie?

0:37:36 > 0:37:39So, let's focus on Waterloo Road's athletic strengths.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41And the camaraderie it breeds.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43We don't have those facilities.

0:37:43 > 0:37:48- Oh, you will do if you sell 'em the dream. - Is Amy Porter wearing glasses?

0:37:48 > 0:37:50Geek-chic, non?

0:37:50 > 0:37:52Where's Josh in that photograph?

0:37:52 > 0:37:55I know he was very keen to volunteer.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58A bit spotty, though. Hormones don't sell.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01It's a secondary school, for Heaven's sake, hormones live here!

0:38:01 > 0:38:06The face of a management team...

0:38:06 > 0:38:09reliable, experienced...

0:38:09 > 0:38:14Now, don't be offended... but to balance out the hip side we need a bit of gravitas.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17This is my defining image of the school...

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Handsome, dynamic...

0:38:20 > 0:38:22trustworthy...

0:38:22 > 0:38:25Don't you love it?

0:38:28 > 0:38:30I've had enough. This isn't going to work.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33You just have to have a bit of vision, for Pete's sake.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36No, I think we're talking about two different schools.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40- Mine exists, and I'm very proud of it.- Bully for you.

0:38:40 > 0:38:44But I wouldn't want to send my kid here. Don't you want it to look good?

0:38:44 > 0:38:46We want it to look honest!

0:38:46 > 0:38:51Why make up a fantasy when there's plenty of real achievements that we can boast about?

0:38:51 > 0:38:56- Like what?- Like kids turning up here day after day even though

0:38:56 > 0:39:00their parents may be absent, or holding down three jobs themselves.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02That's a good angle...

0:39:02 > 0:39:04you should have said that earlier.

0:39:04 > 0:39:07I tried to tell you, but you didn't want to hear it.

0:39:07 > 0:39:11So I don't think your services are needed any more. Thank you very much.

0:39:11 > 0:39:15Keep them. To remind you what you should be working for.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Oh...excuse me. Janeece said you'd be here.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23I was just passing by, so I thought I'd drop in... but I see you're busy.

0:39:23 > 0:39:24Don't worry, I was just leaving.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27Richard Whitman, Director of Education.

0:39:27 > 0:39:28Linda Wicks... 'Solutions PR'.

0:39:28 > 0:39:33Maybe you can change Mrs Fisher's mind.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40Why does it have to be skinny dipping?

0:39:40 > 0:39:42Cos she's a perv. And I should know!

0:39:42 > 0:39:44No. Because I've never done it before.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47And it's supposed to feel like you're flying free and that.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50I'm not going to be 'flying free' with no pants on.

0:39:50 > 0:39:51You wimp!

0:39:54 > 0:39:59Oh, no way, Sam. It's going to be too cold, especially if you're already sick.

0:39:59 > 0:40:00Well, I can't get any sicker, can I?

0:40:00 > 0:40:03It's going to be too much to ask, Sam.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05What if anything happened to you, babe?

0:40:08 > 0:40:12OK. Well, then if I can't do it,

0:40:12 > 0:40:15you two can.

0:40:15 > 0:40:16If it's not too much to ask?

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Ahem!

0:40:23 > 0:40:28# Oh mama, I wanna go surfing

0:40:28 > 0:40:34# Oh mama, I don't care about nothing... #

0:40:40 > 0:40:43It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

0:40:43 > 0:40:45Well, if she turns up, give me a bell.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47I'm not leaving till I find her...

0:40:47 > 0:40:49Bye.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02THEY CHEER

0:41:02 > 0:41:04That's my boy!

0:41:04 > 0:41:07# He's gonna make it all better

0:41:07 > 0:41:13# Oh mama, I wanna go surfing

0:41:13 > 0:41:18# Oh mama, I don't care about nothing. #

0:41:42 > 0:41:44I wanted to give the school a chance to shine.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46The school, or yourself?

0:41:46 > 0:41:48The school!

0:41:48 > 0:41:50If the LA had backed me in the first place.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54Well, that's why I stopped by, to offer an ear after last week's...

0:41:54 > 0:41:58melee... only to find that you'd gone behind my back!

0:41:58 > 0:42:00You seem to think you're the only school under scrutiny, Karen.

0:42:00 > 0:42:03I have to look at the performance of a number of schools.

0:42:03 > 0:42:08You can't measure a place like this by the same criteria you would a school in a more privileged area,

0:42:08 > 0:42:13like St John's Academy. This is a completely different environment.

0:42:13 > 0:42:16- And a troubled one. - And a caring one.

0:42:16 > 0:42:21Waterloo Road provides a lifeline for a great many people here. Adults and children.

0:42:21 > 0:42:28Then maybe it should be managed with care and respect rather than a flagrant self-interest.

0:42:28 > 0:42:32I have only the best interests of this school in my heart.

0:42:32 > 0:42:34Really?

0:42:34 > 0:42:37Doesn't your Site Manager occupy some space there as well?

0:42:40 > 0:42:42- That's none of your business! - I'm afraid it is...

0:42:42 > 0:42:46when a staff relationship is getting in the way of your professionalism.

0:42:46 > 0:42:50- There is no 'relationship'. - Oh, come on, Karen. I've got eyes.

0:42:50 > 0:42:54I saw the way you were behaving the last time I visited...

0:42:54 > 0:42:56you're like a teenage girl around him.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59Richard, you are out of order.

0:42:59 > 0:43:02That's prejudiced and sexist...

0:43:02 > 0:43:05Those are serious allegations, Karen. Don't make this personal.

0:43:05 > 0:43:09Well, you're the one making it personal, by attacking my professionalism, my private life.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Clearly someone has to.

0:43:11 > 0:43:14I'm concerned with the management of this school, Karen,

0:43:14 > 0:43:18and to be fair to you, you should know I'll be advising my colleagues

0:43:18 > 0:43:20at the LA of my concern.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22Have a good day.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32I must've flaked out.

0:43:32 > 0:43:34- Good. You looked knackered.- Cheers.

0:43:34 > 0:43:37Gorgeous, but knackered.

0:43:37 > 0:43:40Yeah, we'd better get you home soon, Sam.

0:43:40 > 0:43:42No, let me stay a little longer.

0:43:42 > 0:43:46- Well, um, I'll go and get us some drinks, then?- Hot chocolate, please.

0:43:46 > 0:43:48OK.

0:43:57 > 0:43:59Hey, Sam?

0:43:59 > 0:44:02You were right. Skinny dipping was great.

0:44:13 > 0:44:15Lauren!

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Mr Clarkson...

0:44:18 > 0:44:22- we only came because Sam wanted to. - I know.

0:44:28 > 0:44:31I reckon we can give 'em five more minutes, eh?

0:44:31 > 0:44:33Yeah.

0:44:36 > 0:44:38I love you, Sam.

0:44:42 > 0:44:44I wish I could make it all go away.

0:44:46 > 0:44:48I wish I could make you better.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53I hate that there's nothing I can do.

0:44:57 > 0:45:00- I hate how scared you must be. - Yeah, I am scared.

0:45:03 > 0:45:04Not of dying...

0:45:09 > 0:45:12missing things, like...

0:45:12 > 0:45:15you and Lauren mucking about in the water.

0:45:17 > 0:45:20I wish it was you in there with me, you know that, don't you?

0:45:20 > 0:45:22That part's over now.

0:45:25 > 0:45:29Every day's just another 'last time'.

0:45:33 > 0:45:35I know you'll be sad when I've gone...

0:45:37 > 0:45:40you'll get on with things.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42It's hard...

0:45:44 > 0:45:49it's hard to believe it's all going to go on without me.

0:45:53 > 0:45:57Is that selfish or what?

0:45:57 > 0:46:03You're not selfish. I think you're incredible.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10I can't imagine you not being here.

0:46:10 > 0:46:12I can't.

0:46:15 > 0:46:17I'll never forget you, Sam.

0:46:19 > 0:46:20Never in all my life.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32I'm glad we came here today, Finn.

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Even though we didn't find your dad?

0:46:37 > 0:46:39That was just wishful thinking.

0:46:49 > 0:46:50Sam?

0:46:52 > 0:46:53Busted!

0:47:07 > 0:47:10It's beautiful, isn't it?

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Yeah.

0:47:17 > 0:47:19I think it's time to go home now though.

0:47:36 > 0:47:38Right, I'm going to drop you two off here.

0:47:38 > 0:47:41I'll go and fetch Denzil.

0:47:43 > 0:47:48I love you. See you tomorrow, yeah?

0:47:48 > 0:47:50Love you too.

0:47:51 > 0:47:53Love you, babe.

0:47:55 > 0:47:57Love you both.

0:48:03 > 0:48:06- Denzil! C'mon! - I'll just get my stuff.

0:48:06 > 0:48:08A'right?

0:48:10 > 0:48:12She's looking...

0:48:13 > 0:48:17- frail.- Yeah.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19She is.

0:48:19 > 0:48:22Painful all round, I'd say.

0:48:22 > 0:48:24Obviously.

0:48:24 > 0:48:28You know, like, when you can't really tell anyone

0:48:28 > 0:48:31how you really feel, so you confide in someone else...

0:48:31 > 0:48:36you know, what's really troubling you.

0:48:36 > 0:48:39Daniel, is there something I should know.

0:48:39 > 0:48:42Put it this way.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45His sister's not the only one he's scared of losing.

0:48:50 > 0:48:51Noted.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54Thank you, mate.

0:48:54 > 0:48:57- I'll see you on Monday. - See you Monday.

0:48:59 > 0:49:01Come on, Denz.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03You all right?

0:49:10 > 0:49:12So where's Aiden?

0:49:12 > 0:49:13Back out on the prowl is he?

0:49:15 > 0:49:17Oh, well, lock up your daughters!

0:49:17 > 0:49:22Actually he's upstairs trying to work out if he's blown it with his dad forever.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25Please tell me you haven't fallen for his sob story.

0:49:25 > 0:49:27No story. There were real tears.

0:49:27 > 0:49:31- He feels like crap after what you said to him.- I was angry.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33I know you're angry,

0:49:33 > 0:49:35mainly with me...and why not?

0:49:37 > 0:49:40But you're a good man.

0:49:40 > 0:49:42A good dad.

0:49:42 > 0:49:44It's me that's made you bitter.

0:49:44 > 0:49:47Aiden's done his fair share.

0:49:48 > 0:49:53The minute I pick us up, he just drags us back down.

0:49:53 > 0:49:55He's a teenager.

0:49:55 > 0:49:58He's rebelling.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00He's a chip off the old block.

0:50:05 > 0:50:08We were good, once, as a family.

0:50:08 > 0:50:10Let's pretend we still are...

0:50:10 > 0:50:13just for now. Just for Aiden.

0:50:13 > 0:50:15He needs us.

0:50:25 > 0:50:28How about I stick a pizza in the oven, and you go and fetch him down?

0:50:40 > 0:50:43- What am I going to do with you? - Ground me?

0:50:43 > 0:50:45What, for being human?

0:50:48 > 0:50:50Oh, baby, I should've told you about your dad years ago.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52Oh, I understand what he'd done, Mum.

0:50:52 > 0:50:56- But if you really want to see him, I can ask for a visiting order. - Aghhh!- You want your medicine.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59- No, Mum, it makes me sleepy. - Yeah, but you're in pain, you...

0:50:59 > 0:51:02- Mum, I'm... - OK, baby, c'here, c'here.

0:51:02 > 0:51:04Well done.

0:51:04 > 0:51:07- OK.- Where's Tom?- He's downstairs.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09Can you go and get him, please?

0:51:09 > 0:51:14Yeah, of course. Let's just get you sorted first, OK?

0:51:14 > 0:51:16Good girl. Good girl.

0:51:16 > 0:51:20# If your mind seats so many questions

0:51:20 > 0:51:23# Misery is never gonna stray

0:51:24 > 0:51:26# Your trail, my thought

0:51:26 > 0:51:30# What an awkward system to be playing on the brain

0:51:31 > 0:51:37# It's all in my mind, love

0:51:39 > 0:51:41# But I can't help thinking why... #

0:51:41 > 0:51:42Tom!

0:51:45 > 0:51:46I'll have mine later.

0:51:46 > 0:51:49You two help yourselves.

0:51:57 > 0:52:02Sorry about earlier. I just saw red, Aiden.

0:52:02 > 0:52:06Don't blame you. I was an idiot.

0:52:06 > 0:52:12Maybe... You have been pushed round from pillar to post

0:52:12 > 0:52:16with just your old man to lean on.

0:52:16 > 0:52:20- That couldn't have been easy. - Or for you.

0:52:30 > 0:52:31Feeling better?

0:52:33 > 0:52:34My headache's gone.

0:52:36 > 0:52:41- Good girl. I'll leave you to it.- No.

0:52:43 > 0:52:45I want you to stay.

0:52:46 > 0:52:51- Both of you. - We're not going anywhere, darlin'.

0:52:57 > 0:52:59D'you know what?

0:52:59 > 0:53:05I did find my dad today... My real dad.

0:53:07 > 0:53:09At least I wish you were.

0:53:09 > 0:53:11Me too.

0:53:19 > 0:53:21The old lady asked me to give you this.

0:53:27 > 0:53:29Don't even recognise him.

0:53:36 > 0:53:38I don't need some stranger in prison.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48Mum, did I tell you about doing a runner?

0:53:49 > 0:53:51You did, baby.

0:53:53 > 0:53:55Was like flying.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58Everything's like flying.

0:54:02 > 0:54:04You just try and go to sleep now.

0:54:06 > 0:54:08Be here when I wake up, please?

0:54:12 > 0:54:13You bet.

0:55:07 > 0:55:08Thanks for that.

0:55:08 > 0:55:11Only a frozen pizza.

0:55:11 > 0:55:15No, I mean giving me time with Aiden.

0:55:17 > 0:55:18And being there when I lost it.

0:55:19 > 0:55:21Thank you.

0:55:21 > 0:55:22About time, eh?

0:55:26 > 0:55:28I was right, you know.

0:55:29 > 0:55:31We did used to be good together.

0:55:33 > 0:55:34Till I messed things up.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39Naomi...

0:55:47 > 0:55:50I want another chance, Rob.

0:57:24 > 0:57:25Rose?

0:57:27 > 0:57:31It's OK. She's all right...

0:57:35 > 0:57:37she's all right, now.

0:57:39 > 0:57:41I fell asleep.

0:57:42 > 0:57:44So did she, Tom.

0:57:46 > 0:57:47She just went.

0:57:59 > 0:58:02The Local Authority are having a meeting today
