00:57It doesn't matter.
00:58Well, you are going to court.
00:59Once Mum gives evidence, it won't matter what anyone says.
01:01Mum wasn't there when you were kidnapped.
01:02No.
01:03But she's going to say I'm a liar.
01:04And why should the jury believe her more than you?
01:05She's a grown-up.
01:06She's divorced from Mike.
01:07She's got no reason to lie.
01:08So that's it?
01:09You're just going to let them win without a fight, are you?
01:10They will anyway.
01:11Is it saying we're all closed?
01:12Is it saying we're all closed?
01:13Well, if Tommy Hilfiger and Jean Paul Cordier can do it.
01:14They're professionals.
01:15They're professionals.
01:16And you're going to say I'm a liar.
01:17And why should the jury believe her more than you?
01:18and why should the jury believe her more than you she's a grown-up she's divorced from mike

05:46i'd want paint
05:47no bother
05:48virginia's uncle jerry's paying for everything
05:50really
05:51that's what you said
05:52jack gallagher
05:58that was quick
05:58just give him hell
06:00take the book in your right hand and repeat from the card
06:18mr gallagher
06:20oh sorry
06:22doesn't go there
06:28follow that and we'll have more bits left over than what we started with
06:32look
06:33me uncle says it's easy for anyone with half a brain
06:36aye right so why did he give it to you
06:37you'll be laughing on the other side of your face when i'm sucking a cool pint of ale
06:41i can't believe we're going to brew our own beer
06:43well believe it
06:45no more kitty squash
06:46from now on we're going to have cool fresh ale on tap whenever we want it
06:50on the morning of the alleged kidnap you were going to yorkshire with nikki
06:55why
06:56we're going to say they're balls
06:58balls
06:59balls of light
07:01they're like energy searchers
07:03where did nikki think these balls of light came from
07:08she reckoned
07:08well a lot of people reckoned
07:10jack
07:11where did she think they came from
07:13aliens
07:15oh i'm sorry we don't do returns
07:21it was a joke
07:23i wasn't laughing
07:24you ain't meant no darling
07:25suitor
07:27i'm sorry she's busy
07:29until we finish these
07:30how do you look for aliens with nikki before
07:41we went to the ufo site
07:43and to the angel of the north
07:44what's this got to do with mike
07:46if the jury thinks she's unreliable they might not believe her evidence
07:51why the angel of the north
07:53that was put up by the council not extraterrestrials
07:57she thought it was going to be stolen
08:00it seemed strange but it wasn't
08:01she was just confused
08:03confused
08:04like she was confused when she imagined her stepfather had kidnapped her
08:09that was real
08:10i was there
08:11you were there at the angel of the north when it was kidnapped
08:13but that didn't happen
08:16do you believe in aliens jack
08:19i don't know
08:19yes or no
08:20no i suppose
08:22but you wanted to believe because nikki did
08:24just as you want to believe this kidnap story
08:26no why should i
08:28because you're a young man
08:29nikki's a young woman
08:31i'm sure the jury will form its own conclusions
08:34no more questions
08:36no more questions
08:37right then
08:42are you a lager man or a bitter man
08:44well i don't know
08:44i've not tried much
08:45well how much
08:46a bit of cider
08:48is that it
08:49well how are you then how much have you had
08:51well you've known the difference between lager and bitter
08:53right then what do they taste like

09:14well we fooled you into thinking you are wearing designer
09:16yeah
09:17and if i can be convinced
09:18so can the public
09:19convinced
09:20into thinking your clothes are worth buying

09:25i mean
09:26you're sitting on a potential gold mine
09:28we're just messing around
09:29yeah but we could be laughing all the way

10:01oh it was horrible
10:02so spread the word
10:03nobody goes in the attic
10:04because it's far too dangerous
10:06that was your plan
10:10what do you think
10:14it's lovely
10:15i've got to raise his makeup out on the
10:17i've got a drink for one bat
10:19he's thirsty

10:33therese o'hagan
10:45are you going to be all right on your own
10:48see if you can get out of that mess
10:50and the defendant hit you
10:56he slapped us
10:57and then
10:58jack tried to stop him
11:00jack tried to stop him
11:00but he pushed him to the floor
11:01and then ran out and knocked the door
11:03did he hit nicky
11:04not when we arrived
11:06later
11:06he just went mad and slapped her
11:08then made her wash her mouth out with soap and water
11:11he wasn't provoked
11:12he just did it
11:14i'm not working all hours for calvin wain
11:16if he wants to sell clothes he can make them himself
11:19i know it'd mean hard work but if we could make money
11:21what
11:22would the bloke who let a load of ten year olds make a right prat out of him
11:25if it was proper business people would need him alive
11:27and then what would happen
11:28he would drop us
11:29would be another one of his little projects gone wrong
11:32yeah i guess so
11:34he'd waste a load of money and pack it all in
11:36so you reckon he'd stump up a lot then
11:40look how much he spent on all those cameras
11:42maybe we are being hasty
11:44well if he's got the money to get us off the ground
11:46no he's not gonna buy us
11:48those clothes are for us
11:50see now we mustn't be selfish

21:12he would drag you back from that fantasy world?
21:14no
21:15he kidnapped us
21:16he was going to hurt us
21:18all he was doing was bringing you back to reality
21:20he didn't bring us back from the fantasy world
21:22he sent us there
21:23so now you're blaming your stepfather for your belief in aliens?
21:28i couldn't run from him in real life
21:29so i ran away in my head
21:31to somewhere he couldn't hurt us
21:34no more questions
21:37let's see if my talk's worked with that one
21:40jeff! jeff! have you seen the ghost again?
21:43who do you think it was?
21:44someone die here
21:45and will it come out in the daytime?
21:46look calm down
21:47i'm not sure what it was with sir last night
21:49it was the ghost?
21:50yeah well i didn't even know there was one here yesterday
21:54that's why i got this
21:56yeah
21:57see what you can find
21:59i ran in
22:00she was screaming and there was a girl there that i didn't recognize
22:03she was upsetting nicky
22:05that's right
22:06we heard you hit nicky
22:08is this true?
22:09but she was hysterical
22:11i slapped her to calm her down
22:13it may seem a bit rough but it was an emergency
22:15he's such a liar
22:17if you did know the truth would you say he was lying?
22:20what about pushing jack gallagher to the floor?
22:22someone was on my back hitting me
22:24when i saw who it was i regretted it
22:26but why did you lock them in?
22:28i panicked
22:29i needed time to think
22:30understandably
22:33finally did you have a good relationship with nicky?
22:37she's a teenager
22:38and i know for a fact that kids often resent step-parents
22:41for no good reason at all
22:43but
22:44i mean this kidnapping nonsense
22:46i can't believe she's trying to get back at me like this
22:49so i thought of old ollie's jolly juice
