0:00:02 > 0:00:04I'm giving you a way out.

0:00:04 > 0:00:08This school needs me to protect it from you.

0:00:08 > 0:00:13Karen's causing a few more waves than expected, so keep the lines of communication open.

0:00:13 > 0:00:17How about...drugs?

0:00:17 > 0:00:19You've got some on you, haven't you?

0:00:19 > 0:00:23Can you empty your pockets, please, sir?

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Our priority has always been our pupils.

0:00:27 > 0:00:29Pupils like Jodie Allen.

0:00:29 > 0:00:33This is her last chance. I'll suspend her for a week,

0:00:33 > 0:00:36and I'm suspending you as well.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Eleanor.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15You'll have to make it quick. I'm busy.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18I want out.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21I don't want to do this any more.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23When I agreed to pass you information,

0:01:23 > 0:01:26I didn't know people's jobs were going to be on the line.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28It's a bit late to be growing a conscience.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32The appeal decision comes through today. Karen Fisher's on borrowed time.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36- Well, things are different now. I'm more involved.- More involved?

0:01:36 > 0:01:39With the school, my colleagues. I can't keep lying to them.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42It's a matter of time before Karen finds out I've been helping you.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45She won't, unless you say something.

0:01:45 > 0:01:50- Maybe I will. - Are you threatening me?

0:01:50 > 0:01:54(You approached me and asked me to spy on Karen.)

0:01:54 > 0:01:56That's hardly professional, is it?

0:01:56 > 0:02:00I seem to remember it was all about you wanting to get on.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02It's not about that any more, Richard.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06I'm not interested in getting on. I'm not your little star pupil.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Don't think you can outsmart me, Eleanor.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11You'll regret this.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20I hope it helps. It's, er...

0:02:20 > 0:02:23It's got the lettings details, how much we make from sports clubs.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Everything.- Thank you.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29It's all paperwork at the moment.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31I, er, I got you a little something.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44- Richard Whitman sees that, he won't mess! - SHE LAUGHS

0:02:44 > 0:02:46- How's it going?- Oh, it's OK.

0:02:46 > 0:02:51Everyone's feeling the pressure of the warning notice, but we've got to get on with things.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53When will you hear about the appeal?

0:02:53 > 0:02:58Today, which means, come 3.15, Richard Whitman could have complete control.

0:02:58 > 0:03:03Free to appoint new Governors, fire my staff, close the school.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05So, er...

0:03:05 > 0:03:09no pressure, then?

0:03:09 > 0:03:14Look, er, if you want to talk, or, I don't know, let off steam...

0:03:14 > 0:03:16I'm here.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19I've barely got time to think, let alone anything else.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Um, well the offer's there.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Nice to see you back.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Cheers.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28Karen, I just wanted to...

0:03:28 > 0:03:31We'll do this in my office.

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Mum?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Mum?

0:04:08 > 0:04:09Mum?

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Mum I can't be late on my first day back.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Why don't you go back tomorrow?

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Stay and help me out today, eh?

0:04:17 > 0:04:18Mum. I can't!

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Well, where are you going?

0:04:20 > 0:04:24We're renovating a garden at the community centre.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25I didn't get you that.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I bought it off a mate. Everyone will be wearing one today.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31What's a community garden got to do with learning?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Better than being stuck in a classroom.- It's two minutes away.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Can't you stay until he's finished his breakfast?- Mum...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Oh, Jodi, please? Me head is thumping.

0:04:43 > 0:04:44Right.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49- Come on, you. all that has to go. - PHONE RINGING

0:04:49 > 0:04:54Hey, babe. Yeah. SHE LAUGHS

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Yeah...yeah.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Close the door, please.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09I need you to read this - it's the return to work procedures.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Part of the school's disciplinary code.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13Right. Er, thanks.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16You need to sign it and hand it back to me by the end of the day.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Karen, I know what I did was wrong.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22- Hiding Scout's drugs was... - A massive lapse of judgement.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24I crossed the line and I am sorry.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27This past week has been a wake-up call.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Being a teacher is the most important thing to me, I won't do anything to risk that again.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34This school is facing closure.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38I need to be able to trust you Chris. No more secrets.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40I understand.

0:05:40 > 0:05:44And this is Scout's first day back after her suspension.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46I suggest you put some distance between you.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49I know, I will.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I see you're heading up the Community Cohesion Project.

0:05:52 > 0:05:56- Yeah.- It'll be good for the staff to think about something other than the warning notice.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00And please don't worry about me.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04From now on, it's strictly professional.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13That week felt like a month.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17Well, for what it's worth, I think Karen overreacted a bit.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Nah, I've had a chance to think. I reckon she got it right.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22I can never get wellies my size.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Yeah, I have the same problem with stilettos.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Oh, Eleanor...

0:06:29 > 0:06:32- Eleanor have you got a sec?- Hi.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34It's good to see you back.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Cheers. Listen, I got a last minute favour to ask.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41Can you come on the community project? We need a female member of staff.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44I can't, Chris. Not today.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47Please? Look, it'd really help us out.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48What's up with you?

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Can handle a bit of fresh air, can't you?

0:06:53 > 0:06:55OK, but I'm not really dressed for it.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Excellent! Tom will tell you what we're doing.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59I'll see you on the minibus.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11That is the last thing I needed today.

0:07:11 > 0:07:15- Is that because I'm going? - Look, I'm sorry to dent your fragile male ego,

0:07:15 > 0:07:18but I have far more to worry about than what happened between us.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Well, we need to talk about it. If we're going to be stuck together all day,

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- it might be a good idea to clear the air.- As far as I'm concerned,

0:07:25 > 0:07:28what happened, happened. A one-off.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- Well, that's what I think. - Good. Air cleared.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Have a lovely day, won't you?

0:07:44 > 0:07:49OK, it goes without saying that behaviour has to be of the highest standard today.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52You're representing the school, so please don't forget that.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56- Sorry I'm late. Sir, you're back. That's awesome!- Why are you late?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58I had an appointment with my solicitor.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03Something tells me you'll be well acquainted with solicitors over the next few years.

0:08:03 > 0:08:09- That's right. Starting with suing you and this school, if I even stub my toe on this trip.- Sit down!

0:08:12 > 0:08:16You'll be, er, needing these.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41Hi, everybody. My name's Keely. I run the community centre.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43- Hiya!- Hiya. We all ready to get stuck in?

0:08:43 > 0:08:44GROANING

0:08:44 > 0:08:48- What's the matter with you? - This lot aren't used to a day's graft, are ya?

0:08:48 > 0:08:53- I'm sure a strapping bloke like you'll sort 'em out.- Oh, please! - Behave yourselves!

0:08:53 > 0:08:54You leave it to me.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59Right, we've got loads of garden furniture, plants and stuff that people donated.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02We've got to clear the weeds and junk, brighten this place up,

0:09:02 > 0:09:05lay down turf and we've got ourselves a community garden.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08- You sound like you know what you're doing.- Nothing to it.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09And modest too, eh?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12You know we've only got today to get all this done?

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Yeah, time is a bit tight

0:09:14 > 0:09:17and I promised everyone at the community centre

0:09:17 > 0:09:20it'd be ready by the end of the day, so can't let 'em down.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Clear the whole garden in one day?! I don't think so.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27Eh, it's all right, we can do it. How about we get this lot into two teams?

0:09:27 > 0:09:31- Yeah, sounds good.- Yeah, they'll work faster if there's a bit of competition.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35You point us in the right direction, we'll do the rest.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Ooh, I like a man that takes charge.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41- Right, come on then. Split yourselves into two teams. - Sounds good, doesn't it, Eleanor?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Eleanor?

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Right! You lot, you come with me and Mr Mead.

0:09:47 > 0:09:48We'll take this side.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52The rest of you Miss Chaudry and Mr Chalk. Get yourselves up that end. C'mon! Chop, chop!

0:09:52 > 0:09:54What do we get if we win?

0:09:54 > 0:09:59Er...a week's free pass to the top of the lunch queue.

0:09:59 > 0:10:00Hey!

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Sorry I'm late, Sir.

0:10:11 > 0:10:16Punctuality is the virtue of the bored. There's hope for you yet.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24(You all right?)

0:10:26 > 0:10:31- Talk about trying too hard.- I know, he keeps asking me if I'm OK. A bit weird, innit?

0:10:31 > 0:10:36It's too little, too late. You OK?

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Yeah. Just keep getting backache. You getting anything like that?

0:10:40 > 0:10:42No, not yet, but I'm dreading it.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45And the bladder problems, and the mood swings.

0:10:45 > 0:10:51Mr Burley, are you here to work, or stare off into space?

0:11:05 > 0:11:08Here you go, girls. Oh, excellent. Bang on schedule.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11Er, Miss, you, er, don't fancy Mr Clarkson, do you?

0:11:14 > 0:11:16He's like the coolest teacher in Waterloo Road.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18- Is he?- Yeah!

0:11:18 > 0:11:22- And he's, like, so single.- Er, my copping off days are, like, so over.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25I've got two kids under five.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Mr Clarkson loves kids!

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Sir, I were thinking, once we clear all this stuff,

0:11:34 > 0:11:36we should get some of that bark down on path.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40- That's a good idea.- Look how much we've got done already. We'll easy win.

0:11:40 > 0:11:41Yep.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43So, how was your week off?

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Listen, er, Scout, um...

0:11:50 > 0:11:55- ..I'm going to back off from you for a bit.- What d'you mean?

0:11:55 > 0:11:57I'm your teacher, I'm not your dad.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59I can't get too involved with you any more.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02But you told me not to deal with stuff on my own.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06No, no, and you shouldn't, but I'm not the best person to come to.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09No after last week.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12Yeah, sure. I get it.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17Right, Well, you better crack on.

0:12:17 > 0:12:18PHONE RINGING

0:13:00 > 0:13:02Yeah, I'm fine.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03Well, you don't look it.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06- I'm OK.- Do you want me to get Jess or someone?

0:13:06 > 0:13:09No, I'm OK, it'll go, it'll go soon.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11You don't look well, Vic.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13You need to go and see a doctor, this isn't right.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Come on, I'll take you.

0:13:38 > 0:13:39Sticky willies?!

0:13:44 > 0:13:47I don't need a lesson in horticulture!

0:13:47 > 0:13:51And you, stop wasting time and get on with it!

0:13:51 > 0:13:53I just gave your lot a couple more spades.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57- Is everything OK? - Yes. Why shouldn't it be?

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Is, erm, is he married?

0:14:02 > 0:14:06- Got a girlfriend?- I don't know. Does anyone have an IQ that low?

0:14:08 > 0:14:12He's the type that likes curry and a beer in front of a flat screen television.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- PHONE RINGING - Hm. Sounds like my kind of man.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18OK, guys. Nice work. We're still on target!

0:14:19 > 0:14:22Mum? I can't.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25Cos I'm on a school trip.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28I'm not allowed, Mum.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Right, OK. I'm coming!

0:14:33 > 0:14:36She'll want me to go to the shops, or something.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38I can't leave here. There's loads to do.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41Well, do you want me to come? I can help you sort it out.

0:14:41 > 0:14:45As long as we're back before they know we've gone.

0:14:46 > 0:14:47Yeah.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Come on.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02Eh, about time.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03Right, I'm off.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06Where are you going? Why do you need all that stuff?

0:15:06 > 0:15:08- I've got my best gear.- What for?

0:15:08 > 0:15:10You've got my mobile, yeah?

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Just plonk Liam in front of telly, he'll be no bother.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18- Where are you going? - I'm having a bit of time with Jace.

0:15:18 > 0:15:23- Who's Jace?- My new fella. Don't worry, I'll phone you.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30Anyway look, you've got your new mate. Look after her, love.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Just watch him.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52What does, "a bit of time," mean?

0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Jodi, get back in flat. - What about Liam? I've got school!

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Mum, please, don't go.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59- Go on. Get! - You can't do this!

0:15:59 > 0:16:03I haven't been away in ages. You and Liam will be all right.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05- It's only for a bit.- Mum!

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Please, just don't leave us!

0:16:08 > 0:16:11It's not always about you, Jodi. I need some time for me an' all. Go on.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39You'll be fine, Vics.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41I'm really scared, Ronan.

0:16:41 > 0:16:45Vicki McDonald? I'm Dr Arnold. Would you like to come through?

0:16:46 > 0:16:50If you want, your partner can come?

0:16:50 > 0:16:54- He's not the baby's father.- OK.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00I'll, er, wait here for you.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Have you found what you're looking for?

0:17:10 > 0:17:13This is last year's Governor's minutes.

0:17:13 > 0:17:14What are you doing here?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17I can visit any school on my patch, you know that.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21The appeal process is still going on,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24you being here could be seen as intimidation.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Can you get what you're after and leave.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32Well, you're not the only one with targets to meet, Karen. We're all under pressure.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46- Your secretary seems very loyal. - She is.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Well, can you say that about all your staff?

0:17:51 > 0:17:55A word to the wise, they're not all behind you.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58You obviously want to unburden yourself, so what is it?

0:17:58 > 0:18:00I had one of your staff approach me.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04A grievance about the way you've been running this place.

0:18:04 > 0:18:09If that were true, I think my staff would approach me first.

0:18:09 > 0:18:10Well, they kept on approaching me,

0:18:10 > 0:18:14we've built up quite a little dossier in the last few weeks.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Why are you telling me this?

0:18:21 > 0:18:22When this school closes,

0:18:22 > 0:18:26just remember the seeds of destruction were sown here, by you,

0:18:26 > 0:18:27not in my office.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31This member of staff...

0:18:31 > 0:18:35The council has a policy of protecting the anonymity of whistle-blowers.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38It wouldn't happen to be Eleanor Chaudry, would it?

0:18:38 > 0:18:41You should learn to be more suspicious of people, Karen.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21Hey guys, nice work... I think it's neck and neck.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25All right, let's have a ten minute break, everyone.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28God, this is the hardest I've worked in my life, ever.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32- Hey, Eleanor, will you give us a hand with this lot? - We're on a break.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Come on!

0:19:34 > 0:19:38We want to win this, don't we? For the kids.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Eleanor, you got a sec?

0:19:42 > 0:19:45Look, it's pretty obvious that you don't want to be here,

0:19:45 > 0:19:48but the kids do and we've got a responsibility to them.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- What does that mean? - It means, that I think you should buck your ideas up.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54- Is this you pulling rank? - If you like.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57Look, this is supposed to be a team effort, everyone mucking in together.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01- Looks to me like you don't give a damn.- You couldn't be more wrong. I do give a damn.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05- Just cos I'm not singing and dancing doesn't mean I don't want to do well.- Good.

0:20:05 > 0:20:11- Then at least make it look as if we want today to a success then, eh? - OK, I'll try.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15So, what are you two doing with your flowerbeds?

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Don't try and steal our ideas, Emily, all right?

0:20:18 > 0:20:22- We've got this one sewn up. - As if I'd copy you.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25We're two down. Scout and Denzil.

0:20:25 > 0:20:30- Has anyone seen them?- Who? - Scout and Denzil, they're not here.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33Well, they're not in the garden, I was the last one out.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38We should get back, they would have clocked us by now.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40I can't take him with us.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44Can you not leave him with someone? An Aunty or a neighbour?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Mum's fallen out with all our relatives and neighbours.

0:20:47 > 0:20:48Could we not come back at lunch?

0:20:48 > 0:20:52Leave him? I can't, Den, he don't like being on his own.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55We've got no choice.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59If Mead finds out we've gone, you've had it.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05All right.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Don't let him see us. Just till lunch, yeah?

0:21:08 > 0:21:11OK. Come on.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13He should be all right.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Ronan? Would you like to come through? Vicki wants to see you.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36- Is she OK?- She's just through here.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39I'll let her talk to you.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46Vic?

0:21:48 > 0:21:49I've lost my baby.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51Vicki's had a miscarriage.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57I'm so sorry.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01She's going to need all her friends and family to support her.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Why me, Ronan?

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Maybe if we could have come earlier, then they could have stopped it.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09I don't think so.

0:22:09 > 0:22:13Ronan's right, there's nothing we could have done at this stage.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16But what's important is what happens next.

0:22:16 > 0:22:20You've been through something that's very tough emotionally,

0:22:20 > 0:22:22you need to treat this as a grieving process.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25- Grieving'?- Absolutely.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27Don't try to face this on your own.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29I'll go and get that information we discussed

0:22:29 > 0:22:32and we can arrange your hospital follow-up.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34I'll give you a few minutes alone.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44I don't know what to say.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47I'm OK.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50I'm fine. I'm...

0:22:50 > 0:22:53I'm just going to wait for the doctor to come back and then I'll go.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56I can get myself home if you want to get back to school.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00I'll wait here with you.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Well...

0:23:06 > 0:23:09I must admit, I'm not Eleanor's biggest fan, but...

0:23:09 > 0:23:12snitching to Richard behind your back?

0:23:12 > 0:23:13Oh, that's low.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17- What has she actually told him? - I don't know exactly

0:23:17 > 0:23:20and that's part of the problem.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24It could be a ploy.

0:23:24 > 0:23:29- It's a way for him to mess with your head?- Well, it's working.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32If I thought for a minute that...

0:23:32 > 0:23:35my staff were turning against me, I'd get my coat and go now.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38You don't know that for sure.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41So find out what's happened.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44Know your enemy and all that.

0:23:44 > 0:23:48- All right.- OK.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Thanks.- No problem.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Janeece.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13Do we have the staff passwords for the school computers?

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- Don't say a word. - Where have you two been?

0:24:23 > 0:24:24Well, come on!

0:24:24 > 0:24:28What, have you not agreed a lie to tell. Where did you go?

0:24:28 > 0:24:31Look, you can't just run off whenever you feel like it.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35- Right, you'll be spending some time in the cooler when we get back. - Fine.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38- Pardon?- Whatever.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40You have disappointed me.

0:24:40 > 0:24:44- I expected a lot more from you today. - Yeah, right. We were bored.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47This whole stupid garden thing is totally crap!

0:24:47 > 0:24:49You've got a lot of work to catch up on.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53- Shift. Grab some compost, get a spade in your hands.- Hang on, you.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57You were perfectly happy this morning, what's changed?

0:24:59 > 0:25:03- Has this got something to do with what we spoke about earlier? - It's nowt to do with that.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Really? What so it's just you being selfish is it?

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Oi, just chill out, yeah.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Liam will be fine. - I shouldn't have left him.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Oh, guys, it's looking really, really good.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56We do still have to lay all the turf out and can we get all the benches out as well?

0:25:56 > 0:25:58But we're doing really well for time.

0:25:58 > 0:26:02- Alan Titchmarsh would be proud! - Who's Alan Titmarsh?

0:26:02 > 0:26:06Hey, I was wondering, after all this thirsty work,

0:26:06 > 0:26:09do you fancy going for a drink later?

0:26:09 > 0:26:11Yeah, sounds good to me.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15"Sounds good to me."

0:26:15 > 0:26:18- Sorry, did you say something? - Me? No, didn't say a word.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Be careful with that! Bring it here.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28- I thought you were supposed to be watching them two?- I'm busy.

0:26:28 > 0:26:33- It's a good job I'm taking control. - Mr Clarkson said this was supposed to go on our side.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Did he? It needs to go somewhere where there's sun. There.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Aw, moving a bench too much like hard work?

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Why don't you stick it where the sun don't shine?

0:26:41 > 0:26:43What did you say?

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Er, sitting in the sun's not good for you, gives you wrinkles.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49I think I've had just about as much as I can take of your smart remarks.

0:26:49 > 0:26:53- What's going on here?- She just as good as told me to stick that bench...

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Ah, look, it was just a silly remark.

0:26:55 > 0:26:59- She knew exactly what she was saying.- OK, I'll deal with this.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02You can work through your lunch. This path needs sweeping.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06No way! We're entitled to a lunch. I'm having a lunch!

0:27:06 > 0:27:09You're entitled to nothing, you'll do as I tell you!

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Right, everyone! Let's go and eat.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14This isn't fair.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16No. Do you know what else isn't fair?

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Swanning off and leaving your team to do all the work.

0:27:19 > 0:27:20You know what?

0:27:20 > 0:27:25- I nearly lost my job because of you and I this is the thanks I get? - You don't understand.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28No, I don't and do you know what? I don't care.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31So, get a brush in your hand, otherwise you're off the project. Simple as.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Right! Well, if that's what you think of me.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53- Scout!- What are you doing?!

0:27:53 > 0:27:56- Get off you little skank! - Stop her!- Pack it in!

0:27:59 > 0:28:02Scout!

0:28:03 > 0:28:06- Scout, come here!- Get off! - Stop it! Listen to me.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08- Get off me!- Listen to me!

0:28:08 > 0:28:11- What's the matter with you? - I want to get away from this dump!

0:28:11 > 0:28:15- Just calm down! - You want me deal to with this? - No, it's all right, I can handle it.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Right, come on, you're coming with me.

0:28:17 > 0:28:21Get inside that centre, now! Keep this lot out here.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Right, what is wrong with you today?

0:28:32 > 0:28:36- I'm not being selfish, I just need to go home.- You're going straight back to school!

0:28:36 > 0:28:41- Mrs Fisher will contact your mum to discuss your behaviour. - She'll have to find her first!

0:28:41 > 0:28:45- What does that mean? - She's with her boyfriend on holiday.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47- What?- She's left Liam with me.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50I was supposed to go back at lunch. Liam's at home on his own.

0:28:50 > 0:28:54You're telling me your mum has left your three-year-old brother on his own?

0:28:54 > 0:28:59You can't tell anyone. I've got to get back to him you've got to help me.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24It's ruined.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28- It took us ages to do those. - Shut up! You've done nothing.

0:29:28 > 0:29:33Hey, she worked hard actually, Denzil. We all did.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36I hope your friend's got all her anger out of her system.

0:29:36 > 0:29:40- You don't know what you're talking about.- Denzil.- No, Sir!

0:29:40 > 0:29:47She doesn't. All you've done today is shout at people and go on one.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Satisfied? - Two peas in a little feral pod.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54I don't believe you.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Daniel, what's your problem?

0:29:56 > 0:29:59My problem? My problem?!

0:29:59 > 0:30:00You haven't got a clue, have you?

0:30:00 > 0:30:05I don't know what it is that's bugging you, but you've been taking it out on the kids all day.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Your behaviour is appalling.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12You're a bully, Eleanor - plain and simple.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15I will not be spoken to like that.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Oh, yeah, yeah. You can give it but you can't take it.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Just like all bullies. A coward at heart.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23Well, do us all a favour and sod off back to school!

0:30:33 > 0:30:37Right, er, c'mon...

0:30:37 > 0:30:39Two teams, let's get this sorted.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41What's the point?

0:30:41 > 0:30:44No...c'mon. Come on. We can do this. Come on!

0:30:52 > 0:30:55It's open... I definitely closed it.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58- Liam!- Liam?

0:30:58 > 0:31:00Liam! Don't hide. He's not in here.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03All right, all right, let's just calm down.

0:31:03 > 0:31:08- He must have got out. Sir, we've gotta find him, he's only three! - We will. He won't have gone far.

0:31:12 > 0:31:13Liam!

0:31:38 > 0:31:40He didn't mean all of those things.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43Yes, he did.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45All right...

0:31:48 > 0:31:49..he did.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54And he's got a point.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56You can be a little confrontational.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00It's called discipline.

0:32:02 > 0:32:06Something's not right with you, Eleanor.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08What is it?

0:32:10 > 0:32:12It's this place...

0:32:12 > 0:32:13Waterloo Road.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18I don't fit in. I never did, I never will.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Be honest, how hard have you really tried?

0:32:21 > 0:32:25I'm just not used to working with these kind of kids. I mean, Scout Allen?

0:32:25 > 0:32:27I just don't "get" them.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30Maybe she doesn't "get" you.

0:32:30 > 0:32:34But you think a school is all about exam results and nothing else.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36I did think that.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38Good, if you've changed your mind.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46What you said earlier...

0:32:48 > 0:32:50..I do care about this school...

0:32:51 > 0:32:53..and the children.

0:32:53 > 0:32:56Well, the kids need to see that.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03Are you going to suggest I start dishing out hugs?

0:33:06 > 0:33:08See, let 'em see that side of you.

0:33:08 > 0:33:11Kids love a sense of humour.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13I know I need to change.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15I want to change...it's just...

0:33:16 > 0:33:18..it's too late.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20What, Eleanor Chaudry throwing in the towel?

0:33:20 > 0:33:22What is the world coming to?

0:33:24 > 0:33:27Come on.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29Let's go and see what we can salvage.

0:33:40 > 0:33:41Liam!

0:33:44 > 0:33:46Liam! LIAM!

0:34:08 > 0:34:10- Anything? - No! He's gotta be somewhere!

0:34:10 > 0:34:12All right, let's try down this way. C'mon.

0:34:19 > 0:34:20Look!

0:34:25 > 0:34:28Liam!

0:34:28 > 0:34:29He might be down 'ere.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32You go down there, I'll check the other side.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35If we can't find him in a second I'll call the police.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Scout! Scout! He's there!

0:34:40 > 0:34:41- Where?!- Liam!

0:34:41 > 0:34:43Liam!

0:34:46 > 0:34:48Liam! Liam!

0:34:49 > 0:34:53- Stay there, just stay there. Don't move, don't move.- Which one?!

0:34:53 > 0:34:55Stay there! Just stay there.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02Where d'you think you were going?!

0:35:20 > 0:35:21You all right, Miss?

0:35:24 > 0:35:25Yeah, I'm fine, Rhona. Thanks.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31- Erm, sorry I lost my temper. - No, no need to apologise.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33I deserved it.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36- All of it. - You're not as bad as I made out.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40Actually I am...

0:35:40 > 0:35:42I was.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45In a funny sort of way, I'm glad you did it.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49I'm really sorry, Daniel.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53Nah...it's forgotten.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Right. Why are we are we all stood here like City's back four?

0:35:56 > 0:36:01- We're well into injury time. - But Sir...- No "buts". Come on.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22That's one way to speed things up, Emily.

0:36:22 > 0:36:26Not the most efficient way of painting but... It might be better to...

0:36:26 > 0:36:29No.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31No, it looks good...

0:36:31 > 0:36:33excellent.

0:36:55 > 0:36:58Here we go.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00- That's the last of 'em.- Thanks,

0:37:00 > 0:37:02that's just what we need.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28Everybody? They're here, come on.

0:37:34 > 0:37:39Hi, everyone, thanks for coming. And, er, we really hope you like it. Come in.

0:38:00 > 0:38:05Miss Fisher, there's a woman on the line, some inspector about the appeal.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Karen Fisher.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18OK, so, you've all worked amazingly hard,

0:38:18 > 0:38:20but there can only be one winner...

0:38:20 > 0:38:24Actually, you're all winners for putting in your time and effort, so thank you.

0:38:24 > 0:38:29However, I think that the team that has just sneaked it is...

0:38:29 > 0:38:30Miss Chaudry and Mr Chalk!

0:38:30 > 0:38:33CHEERING

0:38:33 > 0:38:37THEY CHANT: We are top of the queue, I say, we are top of the queue,

0:38:37 > 0:38:40We are top of the queue, I say, we are top of the queue.

0:38:40 > 0:38:45Keely, about that drink, by the time I get this lot back...

0:38:45 > 0:38:47Oh, look, some other time, eh?

0:38:47 > 0:38:51- Thanks for all your help. - Yeah, no problem, they've really enjoyed it.- Me too.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53- See you later, thank you.- See you.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56Thanks, Keely,

0:38:56 > 0:38:57you've been great.

0:38:57 > 0:39:01Oh, look, I wouldn't have missed it. But listen,

0:39:01 > 0:39:05you do something about him, cos if I see him again...

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Bye.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25I'd started thinking about names...

0:39:25 > 0:39:28what school he'd go to..

0:39:28 > 0:39:30I even bought some baby clothes.

0:39:30 > 0:39:33You'd have been a great mum, Vic...

0:39:33 > 0:39:37I was really looking forward to that feeling, that total love you get from a baby.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40Just cos they depend on you so much.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45This baby would have been a part of me...

0:39:45 > 0:39:47something that was mine.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50I don't mean like, "I own it".

0:39:50 > 0:39:53Yeah, I know what you mean.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56I just feel...

0:39:56 > 0:39:57like I'm being punished.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03I don't think I was ever supposed to have this baby.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Not after what I did to you and Jess.

0:40:08 > 0:40:10Vicki, what you did...

0:40:10 > 0:40:12yeah, it hurt,

0:40:12 > 0:40:14but that is not why you've lost your baby.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21We were engaged, living together...

0:40:21 > 0:40:23and I messed all that up,

0:40:23 > 0:40:25by going off with Aiden.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27I don't even know how you can still talk to me.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Vicki, don't do this to yourself.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31You don't think things happen for a reason?

0:40:31 > 0:40:33No... 'Course I don't.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38Look...

0:40:38 > 0:40:40probably don't want to hear this,

0:40:40 > 0:40:42but I wanted that baby...

0:40:46 > 0:40:48It was going to be my family...

0:40:50 > 0:40:52I can't believe it's gone.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08She won't answer, sir. You're wasting your time.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14She didn't even tell you where she was going?

0:41:14 > 0:41:17That's just the way she is. She in't bad or anything.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19Scout, she's left you to fend for yourselves.

0:41:19 > 0:41:22This is serious. She could go to prison.

0:41:22 > 0:41:23Please don't, they'll split us up.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26Social services would try to keep you together.

0:41:26 > 0:41:30If you call 'em, I'll take Liam and I'll run away. I mean it.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33OK, OK, I didn't say I that would call them.

0:41:34 > 0:41:38Liam would hate it...he wouldn't sleep unless I were with him.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41- Is there no-one else that you can call?- No.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44Meter's run out.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46I've only got 20 quid.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Look, we'll be fine till she gets back.

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Just please don't tell anyone.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59- We're going back to school.- No... - I need to speak to Mrs Fisher.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01I've been AWOL for the last two hours.

0:42:01 > 0:42:05Get a bag, get your stuff and Liam's, toothbrush, clothes,

0:42:05 > 0:42:06whatever.

0:42:08 > 0:42:09You're coming back to mine.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15I don't know how I'm going to tell Aiden.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18- Or Jess.- Don't worry, I'll be there with you...

0:42:19 > 0:42:22I know you'll get through this, Vics...you're dead together.

0:42:25 > 0:42:28I am so sorry that I hurt you, Ronan.

0:42:29 > 0:42:33If I could do anything to change what happened...

0:42:35 > 0:42:37So many times I wished that baby was yours...

0:42:40 > 0:42:42You don't have to say anything.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45I just want to say...

0:42:45 > 0:42:47I love you.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50And thanks,

0:42:50 > 0:42:52thanks for being here.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57I love you, too...

0:42:57 > 0:42:58I've always loved you.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02So what happens now?

0:43:05 > 0:43:07Maybe we can start again?

0:43:13 > 0:43:15I've enjoyed it,

0:43:15 > 0:43:17but I'll be glad to get back to some hard sums.

0:43:17 > 0:43:19See you tomorrow.

0:43:19 > 0:43:20Great work, guys.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22- See you later, miss. - Bye, girls. Bye.

0:43:24 > 0:43:25Bye, guys.

0:43:27 > 0:43:30Well, at least we're talking to each other.

0:43:30 > 0:43:34That is a good thing.

0:43:34 > 0:43:38We could go for a drink later if you want...

0:43:38 > 0:43:39No politics.

0:43:39 > 0:43:42Well, I'm not coming if we can't argue.

0:43:43 > 0:43:47We did well today... kids got a lot out of it.

0:43:47 > 0:43:49Yeah, not just the kids.

0:44:04 > 0:44:07Our leader has called a meeting.

0:44:07 > 0:44:11Looks like the appeal decision has come through.

0:44:11 > 0:44:14So, if anyone fancies a drink later,

0:44:14 > 0:44:15it's either a celebration

0:44:15 > 0:44:17or a wake.

0:44:27 > 0:44:30Right... I'll be five minutes.

0:44:30 > 0:44:32Will you get in trouble, sir?

0:44:32 > 0:44:34No, I'll be fine.

0:44:34 > 0:44:38Don't open the door, don't get out the car for anyone.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47Thanks for hanging on, everyone.

0:44:47 > 0:44:51The news is that we haven't lost our appeal...

0:44:51 > 0:44:55But the independent inspectors can't uphold it either.

0:44:55 > 0:44:59They want to make their own informed decision,

0:44:59 > 0:45:05so they have decided to carry out an inspection here tomorrow.

0:45:05 > 0:45:07Will all subjects be inspected?

0:45:07 > 0:45:11Assume you will be observed, all of you.

0:45:11 > 0:45:12As you know,

0:45:12 > 0:45:16Richard Whitman was the person responsible

0:45:16 > 0:45:19for instigating all of this.

0:45:19 > 0:45:23I have to tell you that he wasn't acting alone.

0:45:24 > 0:45:27It doesn't please me to have to tell you that

0:45:27 > 0:45:31someone in this room has been passing information

0:45:31 > 0:45:33about us to him.

0:45:38 > 0:45:42Ill-informed opinions and tittle tattle, but...

0:45:42 > 0:45:45enough to convince him to act.

0:45:45 > 0:45:46What, a teacher?

0:45:46 > 0:45:49- Yes.- Do you know who it is?

0:45:49 > 0:45:50So we can string them up.

0:45:52 > 0:45:56I would hope that the person responsible will have the courage

0:45:56 > 0:46:00of their convictions to stand up and speak up for themselves.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39It was me.

0:46:39 > 0:46:40It's me.

0:46:45 > 0:46:48I've been passing information to Richard.

0:46:50 > 0:46:53Every time something happened

0:46:53 > 0:46:56or got messed up, I, I erm...

0:46:56 > 0:46:58I reported it.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02I'm so sorry.

0:47:02 > 0:47:04I made a mistake.

0:47:08 > 0:47:11I know it's too late,

0:47:11 > 0:47:13but...

0:47:16 > 0:47:19..I'm really sorry I did it.

0:47:19 > 0:47:22And if you just let me explain...

0:47:22 > 0:47:27- How do you explain stabbing your colleagues in the back?- Last week...

0:47:27 > 0:47:29the drugs in school...

0:47:29 > 0:47:33it was you who called the police, wasn't it?

0:47:37 > 0:47:38Chris.

0:47:42 > 0:47:44Hope it was worth it.

0:47:44 > 0:47:46Well, we all have a very important day tomorrow,

0:47:46 > 0:47:51I would suggest that we should try and concentrate on that.

0:47:51 > 0:47:54If I could take it back, I would.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56You have to believe me.

0:47:56 > 0:47:58I'll deal with you in a minute.

0:48:10 > 0:48:12Chris!

0:48:14 > 0:48:15Chris!

0:48:17 > 0:48:21- Where are you going?- I... I've got to get the lab ready for tomorrow.

0:48:21 > 0:48:24I think we need to talk about the inspection.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26Absolutely, er, let's meet first thing.

0:48:26 > 0:48:31But it's like you've just said though - we're ready for them.

0:48:31 > 0:48:33I can't believe how manipulative Eleanor's been.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36- I know, she's fooled all of us. - Day in, day out,

0:48:36 > 0:48:38working with her colleagues.

0:48:38 > 0:48:41Lying to their faces like that?

0:48:41 > 0:48:46Let's forget about Eleanor, let's concentrate on showing these inspectors what we're made of.

0:48:46 > 0:48:48Oh, OK.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50So how's the project going?

0:48:50 > 0:48:53It's going really well. I'll fill you in tomorrow.

0:49:08 > 0:49:11OK...this is for one night. have you got that?

0:49:11 > 0:49:15If I can't get in touch with your mum tomorrow, I'll be phoning social services.

0:49:17 > 0:49:19Did you get in trouble?

0:49:19 > 0:49:21No. No, I didn't.

0:49:21 > 0:49:23You had to lie for us, though, didn't you?

0:49:25 > 0:49:27Thanks, sir.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34I just don't know why she did it.

0:49:34 > 0:49:38He'll have paid her. I mean, you don't do this sort of thing out of conviction.

0:49:38 > 0:49:42You're wrong...she did. I'm sure of it.

0:49:44 > 0:49:45Oh, well,

0:49:45 > 0:49:50better go and break the habit of a lifetime and prepare a lesson.

0:49:54 > 0:49:57- You OK?- Yeah, I'm fine, why?

0:49:57 > 0:50:01- Nothing. Just you and Eleanor... - Chalky, I've got a lot to do, mate.

0:50:03 > 0:50:05Yeah, me too... I'll...

0:50:05 > 0:50:07I'll see you tomorrow.

0:50:13 > 0:50:15At first I thought I was

0:50:15 > 0:50:18doing the right thing.

0:50:18 > 0:50:21I didn't agree with the way the school was being run.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26All your years of experience tell you that, did they?

0:50:27 > 0:50:29I was wrong...

0:50:31 > 0:50:34- ..and I'm sorry. - I've seen your emails to Richard.

0:50:34 > 0:50:37This was personal.

0:50:37 > 0:50:39He recruited you, didn't he?

0:50:43 > 0:50:45Yes.

0:50:45 > 0:50:49At first it was just general stuff...

0:50:49 > 0:50:52areas the school was struggling in,

0:50:52 > 0:50:57parent complaints, and then it became more about...you...

0:50:59 > 0:51:01..the decisions you made,

0:51:01 > 0:51:02or hadn't made.

0:51:04 > 0:51:06I've always tried to help you

0:51:06 > 0:51:08and guide you the best way I can.

0:51:11 > 0:51:13Why didn't you come to me?

0:51:17 > 0:51:19I wish I had...

0:51:20 > 0:51:24..but he just kept going on about promotion and...

0:51:27 > 0:51:29I know he used me.

0:51:34 > 0:51:36I'm so stupid.

0:51:37 > 0:51:43I just can't understand why you would take sides with a man like that,

0:51:43 > 0:51:48and then call the police in behind my back.

0:51:50 > 0:51:53I know I've let you down.

0:51:55 > 0:51:57Well, it's done now.

0:52:01 > 0:52:03I'll resign.

0:52:03 > 0:52:06I'll hand my notice in first thing tomorrow.

0:52:08 > 0:52:10If you really are sorry, then prove it.

0:52:10 > 0:52:13You come in here first thing tomorrow morning,

0:52:13 > 0:52:15face your colleagues,

0:52:15 > 0:52:17and give us your very best for the inspection.

0:52:19 > 0:52:20Even after what I've done?

0:52:20 > 0:52:23Resigning's the easy way out.

0:52:35 > 0:52:37Wow! Nice pad, sir.

0:52:41 > 0:52:43Look at the size of that!

0:52:50 > 0:52:52Have a look around(!)

0:52:54 > 0:52:56No way, is this your fridge?

0:52:56 > 0:52:58You like your beer, don't ya?

0:52:58 > 0:52:59You hungry?

0:52:59 > 0:53:01Yeah...you got any oven chips?

0:53:01 > 0:53:04You sit yourself down, I'll make us something.

0:53:04 > 0:53:06- Can I put the telly on? - Remote's on the side.

0:53:17 > 0:53:22I want their decision, in writing, on my desk.

0:53:22 > 0:53:24I don't care.

0:53:26 > 0:53:27I'll call you back.

0:53:34 > 0:53:35Who the hell d'you think you are?

0:53:37 > 0:53:39Intimidating my staff...

0:53:39 > 0:53:41to do your dirty work for you?!

0:53:41 > 0:53:43I assume you've spoken to Eleanor Chaudry?

0:53:43 > 0:53:48Using a gullible young woman to try and close a school?

0:53:48 > 0:53:50I wouldn't describe her as gullible...

0:53:50 > 0:53:53Ambitious, yes, I haven't seen ambition like that in a long time.

0:53:53 > 0:53:56And you tapped into that, to get what you wanted?

0:53:56 > 0:53:59What I wanted was a failing school closed.

0:53:59 > 0:54:01And what have you achieved? Nothing.

0:54:01 > 0:54:06We're being inspected tomorrow and you know what Richard, I can't wait.

0:54:06 > 0:54:07You'll fail tomorrow.

0:54:07 > 0:54:09D'you want to bet on that?

0:54:09 > 0:54:12What if all this manipulation of yours comes to nothing?

0:54:12 > 0:54:15It could be the biggest waste of your time.

0:54:15 > 0:54:17Then I'll find another way to get you out.

0:54:17 > 0:54:20You just going to get rid of Eleanor now, now that you've used her?

0:54:20 > 0:54:23Well, I'm sure she'll find another job.

0:54:23 > 0:54:26She'll be back in my school tomorrow morning.

0:54:26 > 0:54:29I refused to accept her offer of resignation.

0:54:29 > 0:54:33You see, that's what you don't understand about my school, Richard.

0:54:33 > 0:54:35We're loyal.

0:54:35 > 0:54:37Your grotty little school

0:54:37 > 0:54:40will fail tomorrow, and when it does, you'll never work as a head teacher again.

0:54:40 > 0:54:45I'll blacken your name so much you won't be able to get a job carrying a lollipop.

0:54:49 > 0:54:51You know, up close...

0:54:51 > 0:54:54you're really rather pathetic, Richard.

0:54:55 > 0:54:57There's the door.

0:55:02 > 0:55:03You stay away from my staff.

0:55:29 > 0:55:32You need to get some oven chips, sir.

0:55:32 > 0:55:35You won't be here to eat them.

0:55:35 > 0:55:38- What happens tomorrow? - I'll get hold of your mum.

0:55:39 > 0:55:41I meant at school.

0:55:43 > 0:55:45I'll sort it. You finished?

0:55:48 > 0:55:51Who's going to look after Liam?

0:55:51 > 0:55:55Look, Scout... I need some time to think.

0:55:55 > 0:55:57Talk about it in the morning, yeah?

0:55:57 > 0:56:00He'll need more clothes...

0:56:00 > 0:56:04- and food. He can't have any of that stuff you've got. - I'll figure something out.

0:56:09 > 0:56:12TV PLAYS

0:56:12 > 0:56:14DOORBELL

0:56:24 > 0:56:25Karen?

0:56:26 > 0:56:30- Sorry to turn up unannounced. - No worries.

0:56:30 > 0:56:32- Are you busy? - No, no, er, come through.

0:56:40 > 0:56:42It's not too late, is it?

0:56:42 > 0:56:45No...let me take your coat.

0:56:47 > 0:56:51- Bad day? - No...it was quite good, actually.

0:56:51 > 0:56:54Just thought with Eleanor and...

0:56:54 > 0:56:55No, I took your advice and...

0:56:55 > 0:56:58let go of my anger.

0:56:58 > 0:57:01What, you do listen to me occasionally?

0:57:01 > 0:57:02You have your moments.

0:57:03 > 0:57:06Um...drink?

0:57:06 > 0:57:07No, I'm not thirsty.

0:57:07 > 0:57:09Um...right.

0:57:14 > 0:57:16Actually, I haven't come here for a drink.

0:57:23 > 0:57:25# I was there in the morning

0:57:25 > 0:57:28# I take on the wall

0:57:28 > 0:57:33# The sweeter the face The sweeter the fall

0:57:33 > 0:57:37# I was kissing a window

0:57:37 > 0:57:39# My breath on the pane

0:57:39 > 0:57:43# Gone in a moment again

0:57:43 > 0:57:49# All these thoughts will fade away... #

0:57:51 > 0:57:53Social Services need to know.

0:57:53 > 0:57:57Please don't... They'll take us into care and split us up.

0:57:57 > 0:57:58They'll do what they think is necessary.

0:57:58 > 0:58:00Chris, we're being inspected today

0:58:00 > 0:58:03and you land this in my lap?

0:58:03 > 0:58:07Alison's going to get wind of it and then she's going to think I can't manage my staff.

0:58:07 > 0:58:10Scout's left school and taken her brother, I'll try to find them.

0:58:10 > 0:58:12This is not good timing, I need you here.

0:58:12 > 0:58:16No, this is too important. I said I'd look after her!

0:58:16 > 0:58:19You know what this is, Li? How to get out of here.

0:58:19 > 0:58:21That was close.

0:58:21 > 0:58:27- Tickets, please! - Today's events leave the LEA with no alternative than to suspend you.

0:58:27 > 0:58:30I believe that this school is important,

0:58:30 > 0:58:34and I believe that it's worth fighting for and that's what I intend to do.

0:58:34 > 0:58:36Are you with me?!!

0:58:36 > 0:58:37ALL: Yes!
