00:24Biker.
00:26I'll never have even told you.
00:28It's what, friends, a fault.
00:29So has he asked you out yet?
00:30Properly?
00:31Yeah.
00:32It's been a week.
00:33Are you sure he's not messing yet?
00:34You know, keeping his options open.
00:35He's just got his own way of doing things.
00:37He's not like other lads.
00:38Where have I heard that before?
00:46You have told her.
00:47Now you need to sort it out.
00:49The sooner the better.
00:51Oh, brilliant.
00:52I thought all the PR money had gone on repairs.
00:55Well, Morgan's here chipped in.
00:57She has.
00:58I thought I'd best do a proper firework display
01:01in case you lot were tempted to set your own off.
01:03We can't have that.
01:07Is that it?
01:08Did you see the size of the box?
01:09Stop it.
01:10He's doing it for us.
01:11Regina, they love it.
01:12All blokes do.
01:13Lighting the blue touch of paper.
01:14They're mad for it.
01:15Am I right?
01:16It's that smell.
01:17Aye.
01:18When they're burnt out.
01:19Beautiful.
01:22It's in.
01:23The article about the PR thing.
01:24It's about time, too.
01:25Apparently they're waiting for space.
01:26The center page, as I said.
01:27Yep.
01:28There it is.
01:29Pony Panemonium.
01:30Therese O'Hagan reports on the PR campaign with a difference.
01:33Where is it?
01:34What?
01:35The rest of the article.
01:36I wrote two pages.
01:37Look, sherbet.
01:38Good stuff.
01:39Thanks to Therese.
01:40Yeah, they chopped out most of my article.
01:41I printed loads of pictures of a pony.
01:42Don't get too close, please.
01:43Why now?
01:44Well, the thing about sherbet is...
01:45He doesn't like seeing himself in newspapers.
01:46What?
01:47Why don't you tell them?
01:48I'm off before I go and loot me too.
01:49Aw, you're shy, sherbet.
01:50Don't you like publicity?
01:51He needs a rest.
01:52Leave him alone, will ya?
01:53What's the point in lying?
01:54Just because we found out sherbet would be a bit shirty.
01:55But Jeff wants to get rid of him.
01:56We can't give him an excuse.
01:57Suit yourself.
01:58Your turn next day.
02:13Sure.
02:15Don't forget.
02:20I hope me plants are alright.
02:21I mean, what if the running away comes to him who doesn't come to hell?
02:24I hope we plant him all right. I mean, what if a rocket plant's on one?
02:29What? Fireworks?
02:30Tonight, Jess's doing a display.
02:37I bet you're glad I made you go to the library.
02:39Jack, will you leave it?
02:40What are the people at the paper saying?
02:41I'll soon find out. I phoned the editor. Made an appointment.
02:44Do you want me to come with you?
02:45Jack!
02:46I can wait outside.
02:47Sometimes it's nice to do things by yourself.
02:50Yeah?
02:51Get yourself a hobby.
02:52Well, like what?
02:53I don't know, just hang out with the lads or something.
02:55Well, I haven't seen much of them lately.
02:56Exactly, because you're me on Nicky all the time.
02:58No offence, but you really let it slip.
03:06Hiya.
03:06You all right?
03:07Hi, champion.
03:08I got the last level of Street Speeder.
03:10Do you want another shortcut?
03:12Street Speeder?
03:13Nobody plays that anymore.
03:14No offence, Jack, but you're a bit out of touch.
03:16That's what Therese reckons, so I thought I'd hang out with you a lot for a bit.
03:19What?
03:20Because your girlfriend said so?
03:21No, that's really sad.
03:22You know what your problem is?
03:24What?
03:24You've been hanging out with the lasses too much.
03:26Bust your edge.
03:27Gone soft.
03:28No, I haven't.
03:28Watch out, lads.
03:29You might hit us with his handbag.
03:30Come on, Jack.
03:46Come on, Jack.
03:47Let's get that testosterone pump in here.
03:49Stop taking the mick.
03:51It's what lads do, Jack.
03:52Remember?
03:53Stop you turning into a lass.
03:54Pack it in, will you?
03:55Don't worry, man.
03:56You'll get there.
03:56So, what do you reckon on Geoff's fireworks?
04:00Great.
04:02What?
04:03They're pathetic?
04:04Well, they must be.
04:05You can't fit anything decent in a box that size.
04:07The bigger they are, the bigger the bar.
04:08Something you can hear miles away.
04:10Yeah, that'll be fine.
04:13No, no, I won't.
04:14No, 20 of the polycott and 10 of the jersey here.
04:17She's on the phone.
04:17Who won't be?
04:18Don't fly off the handle.
04:20It's not like there's anything dodgy going on.
04:22There's probably a simple explanation.
04:24Right, we've got this all under control, so don't rock the boat.
04:27I just want to know what our label was doing in somebody else's jacket.
04:31That's all.
04:32Hello, girls.
04:32Hiya.
04:36What, you been up there?
04:37Nothing.
04:38Well, there must be something, Nack, because I've hardly seen you lately.
04:41Look, there is something later, right?
04:45What's going on?
04:46Savvy.
04:47Me picture's everywhere.
04:48Well, what did you expect?
04:49You look great.
04:50I didn't know it was going to be this big, though.
04:52He never told us.
04:53Or did he really need to?
04:54You don't understand.
04:55Liam, you're a star.
04:57Look, show him that.
05:01You as well?
05:02Can I have a word?
05:05Not now.
05:06Liam, do you want to go and see that new Travolta film?
05:09What?
05:10It's meant to be really good.
05:12Yeah, yeah.
05:14Did you hear that?
05:15You said yes.
05:18I'm sorry.
05:18It must have been a mistake at this end.
05:20But how one label was in it?
05:22We've been up to here.
05:23We've had to take on temps.
05:25One of them must have got confused and stitched the wrong label in.
05:27Well, I hope you sacked her.
05:29Sure.
05:29All I can say is it won't happen again.
05:31Now, can I have the jacket?
05:33We didn't bring it.
05:35Why not?
05:35Well, we didn't think you'd want it.
05:38Drop it in later today, OK?
05:40OK.
05:41We really appreciate what you're doing for work.
05:43But have you involved us a bit more?
05:45I mean, we haven't seen your workshops.
05:47Why can't we have a look around now?
05:48No.
05:49Erm, it's just that we're too busy.
05:51Rush job.
05:53Sorry.
05:54Thanks for your time, Miranda.
05:55What's going on?
06:00You tell me.
06:01Right, then I will.
06:02You're going on a date with Claire?
06:03No.
06:05The new Travolta film.
06:06I was there.
06:07I just wanted to get away.
06:08I'm not going, all right?
06:12Look, I've only seen you twice since...
06:13Now's not a good time.
06:15You do want people to know?
06:17Are you embarrassed because it's me?
06:18No.
06:19Oh, you're doing my head in.
06:20I'm sorry.
06:21Well, do something about it.
06:24Or yelling because the snog's going to sort everything out.
06:27I'm not like that.
06:28So what's wrong?
06:30I can't tell you.
06:32But it's doing my head in, too.
06:33Well, I think it's a cheek.
06:47Putting our names on second-class designs.
06:50You've been a bit touchy, aren't you?
06:52She was busy, that's all.
06:55Well, look at the cut.
06:56I can't see much wrong with it.
06:58Well, the lining, then.
06:59Look at the lining.
07:00What's that?
07:03Lagoon?
07:04I've got one of theirs.
07:06It's a top label.
07:06Well, what's Miranda doing with it?
07:08Well, Lagoon's a clothes label, right?
07:11Miranda makes clothes.
07:13Yeah.
07:13So that's what she was on about.
07:15She must have been doing the rush job for Lagoon,
07:17and that's how the labels got mixed up.
07:18Oh, and it's as simple as that.
07:20It's as simple as that.
07:23Claire.
07:24Go away.
07:24I wanted to tell you.
07:25I think it's a bit late for that.
07:27I didn't know what to do.
07:28Well, you could have fooled me.
07:29Oh, you know what I mean.
07:30You knew fine.
07:31Well, I fancied him that.
07:32I could hardly miss it.
07:33And what is that supposed to mean?
07:35You weren't exactly subtle.
07:36Why didn't you just say something?
07:38I don't know.
07:39Just face it, you stabbed me in the back to get him for yourself.
07:41You never even asked as if I liked him.
07:43No, you said that you didn't, Claire.
07:45All right.
07:49All I can say is that you two deserve each other.
07:53See what you've done now?
07:54Well, all right.
07:55I'll dump you and go out with her if that's what you want.
07:57No.
07:57Good.
07:58I'll shut up then.
08:0127.
08:0228.
08:0429.
08:0530.
08:06Right.
08:07This is the spectating area.
08:10Right here, Jeff.
08:11One.
08:13Two.
08:14Look at you spectators.
08:16They're not going to see anything from you.
08:17Not the ones he's got.
08:18You should see the rocket my old man's got at home.
08:20It's massive.
08:21What kind is it?
08:23It's a rocket.
08:24A big one.
08:25Now get on with it.
08:26What is it?
08:31Oh, mate.
08:33Where is he?
08:37The past is hell by day, but they're not bad.
08:40Thanks.
08:41Can we help?
08:43No, it's all right.
08:44Just stay by the door.
08:45Is there something wrong with Sherbert?
08:47We're only trying to help.
08:48No, it's nothing.
08:49It's just he doesn't like crowds.
08:52He looks happy.
08:53He's dead sweet.
08:54Yeah, thanks.
08:55I'll see you later, then.
09:01What on earth are you doing?
09:02Settling him in.
09:04So he gets used to it by night.
09:05What?
09:06Well, he can't be out there where all the fireworks.
09:08It'd scare him to death.
09:09I will not.
09:10I repeat, not.
09:11Have a pony in my grove.
09:13And that's final.
09:14But Jeff, he's lovely.
09:15He can be lovely outside.
09:17Come on, you.
09:17Jeff, no.
09:18Listen.
09:20Are you all right?
09:23Did you say that?
09:24It's something to do.
09:25Pornies.
09:26That's not all they do.
09:27You've seen the state of my show.
09:29It's gotten mad.
09:30Is that why you've been so funny?
09:31Oh, it stinks.
09:33Come on, Jeff's right.
09:35Sheffield can't help it.
09:36I'm staying.
09:37Suit yourself.
09:38I knew this would happen.
09:41People are so intolerant.
09:42Well, can you blame them?
09:44I mean, I'm all for helping animals, but this is ridiculous.
09:47You're just getting carried away.
09:48She's not.
09:49Look, I'll ring the RSPCA again.
09:52But if they contract this Mr Bradford of yours, they'll have to find someone else.
09:56No.
09:56And in the meantime, I want him back outside.
10:05Excuse me.
10:06I've come to see the editor.
10:08Yeah, yeah.
10:09Grab a seat.
10:11You'll be, er, Therese.
10:14Chris Dukes.
10:15Reporter.
10:16Er, he's out.
10:17Big story broken, has it?
10:19No, no.
10:19You fancied a pint?
10:21I've got an appointment.
10:22Well, he's the boss.
10:23It's what they do.
10:24Anyway, I've read your story.
10:25It's great.
10:26So what can I do for you now?
10:27You cut most of it.
10:28Well, that's journalism.
10:29You spend hours working on an issue story the editor cuts it to cover the local granny's knitting competition.
10:34Cheers.
10:36But what about the juicy stuff?
10:38You know, undercover, exposing lies.
10:41Look.
10:42Gardening tips, lost cats, what's on in Baker.
10:46And I've been here six months.
10:48That's terrible.
10:49Don't you ever get bored?
10:50No, I'm always on the lookout.
10:51Nellie broke one to tabloids last month.
10:53Local crime.
10:54Very tasty.
10:55Brilliant.
10:56That's what I want to get into.
10:57That's why I'm here.
10:59Well, if you come across anything, give us a bell.
11:02If it's any good, I'll work with you.
11:04You're on.
11:05But, er, no more ponies, eh?
11:07So you mean there's other things, as well as, like, charging at people?
11:11Look, just because an animal expresses a tell from a different way, there's no reason to give them a hard time.
11:17Yeah, I didn't think Regina would be like that.
11:20People are like that.
11:22Most people.
11:24As long as he's happy now.
11:26I think he likes you.
11:30What's up?
11:31Achoo!
11:31I don't know.
11:34Achoo!
11:35Careful.
11:36You'll scare him.
11:38Come on, Jack.
11:44Hey, Cher.
11:45Have you seen yourself in the newspaper?
11:47Have you flicked?
11:48I'm not in that.
11:49Oh, that's right.
11:49It's not you.
11:50It's the pony.
11:50Give us a look at that brochure a minute, will you?
11:59Yeah, that's one my old man's got.
12:01Awesome, eh?
12:02Aw, look who's coming.
12:04I told you, man.
12:05She fancies me.
12:06You never guess what I saw snug in your sister.
12:09I don't know.
12:09Quasimodo.
12:10Aye, did he bring his bell?
12:12No, Liam.
12:14A right tonsil massage.
12:15Aw, no offence, Ollie.
12:16But rather him than me.
12:18Not taken.
12:18Wait a minute, I thought all of you hated him.
12:20We do?
12:21So how come you're so relaxed?
12:23I mean, he's taken lasses out from under your noses.
12:25Yeah, but none were fancy.
12:26Speaking of which, now that you're back on the market...
12:29What do you mean?
12:30Well, you've been drooling over Liam for weeks.
12:32Rubbish? I have not.
12:33But I'm a reasonable man.
12:35I wouldn't hold it against you if you went out with us tonight.
12:39Aw, you're pathetic.
12:41She's just plain hard to get, lads.
12:42Jack, you're supposed to be helping us with Sherbert.
12:45Oh, you little boy.
12:47Sorry I'm busy.
12:48It's not good enough.
12:49He can't look after himself.
12:51Well, I'll try and get around later.
12:52Make sure you do.
12:54What are you looking at?
12:56Mother?
12:57You really showed her, Jack.
12:59Top of the range, yeah?
13:01I'll beat it.
13:02What?
13:02Bottom of the grove tonight.
13:03Biggest rugger wins.
13:07Can you stay a bit longer?
13:09Jack's not coming up later.
13:10No, I'm sorry.
13:11I'm getting spots all over.
13:13I must be allergic.
13:14I think I need to see a doctor.
13:18Have you seen me black and white sports bad?
13:20No.
13:21Sorry, I haven't.
13:22We've been doing a bit of digging.
13:30Eh?
13:31Sher found this.
13:32Seems there's a crime outbreak in the North East.
13:35Counterfeit clothing, dodgy designer labels.
13:38We've been talking to that Connor bloke.
13:40He used to do PR work for Lagoon.
13:41He reckons all their stuff's made abroad.
13:44So why was this in Miranda's factory?
13:47Come on, tell us we're imagining things.
13:49You've got no proof at all.
13:50Exactly.
13:51So let's wait until this evening and have a look around the factory.
13:54See what we can find.
13:55No way.
13:56Well, what would you do then?
13:57Just hand the jacket back.
13:58It's not our problem anymore.
14:00No, it's only a bit of evidence we've got.
14:02Of what?
14:02Look, let's not rush into anything.
14:04We're supposed to be going out tonight anyways.
14:06I think he's all getting a bit carried away.
14:07We'll meet in the morning and see how it looks then.
14:10I'm sorry.
14:18I did tell Matt to sort it.
14:20You knew about it?
14:21Well, yeah.
14:23Tell everyone at the Grove, did you?
14:24Come on, let's get out of here.
14:26See you later.
14:27Yeah.
14:34Right, we'll go to the factory.
14:36But you said we would...
14:37To get it off our backs.
14:38She doesn't want to listen.
14:40OK, what aim?
14:43Depends on the pain.
14:44Look what that pony did.
14:45Just because I had an apple in it.
14:47This was new.
14:47I've never had a new jacket before.
14:50Are my shoes still stint?
14:51No, more than normal.
14:52His head butts you.
14:53And he eats you bad.
14:55He makes us it.
14:56And I'm sorry, what could do with a good wash?
14:58It has to go.
14:59It was abandoned.
15:00We'll tear down the bloke who dumped him, not us.
15:02You don't care about animals.
15:03We do?
15:04You're just being selfish.
15:05You just want to keep him here.
15:07He'd be happier with other ponies.
15:08Why didn't you just let the RSPCA sort it?
15:10No, he's staying here with us.
15:13Oh, thanks, Jack.
15:14I knew you'd stick with us.
15:15I can't stop.
15:16He's still got that copy of Superads.
15:18Do you not find this weird?
15:20Why should I?
15:21I don't know.
15:22It's probably just me.
15:23I've never really had a boyfriend before.
15:25Well, not that I'm saying that we're going out properly, but...
15:27Oh, why not?
15:28Because you could have anyone.
15:30I don't want anyone.
15:31Well, are you asking us then?
15:33For real?
15:34Yeah.
15:34I'm supposed to be hard.
15:36I don't know what's wrong with us.
15:37Well, I'm not complaining.
15:38Shut up.
15:41What's wrong?
15:42Nothing.
15:43Oh, see, this is what I mean.
15:44You just go weird on us.
15:45Look, I'm not doing it on purpose, all right?
15:47I've met lads like you before.
15:48This is just a game, isn't it?
15:49No.
15:50So, tell us.
15:51You want to know?
15:52Yes.
15:52Right.
15:55Look at this.
16:00Right, what's going on?
16:02It's just you and me now.
16:04But it's okay.
16:05They're not worth it anyway.
16:07Ow!
16:10What did you do that for?
16:11I'm the one sticking up for you.
16:14Sherbet!
16:15Right.
16:16I did something bad.
16:18I knew I was wrong and I got punished.
16:19So, why is it still going on?
16:23If you knew someone was after you, then why did you do the PR thing?
16:26You don't know what it's like.
16:27Moving house every month.
16:28I'm sick of hiding.
16:29That sounds quite exciting when you're stuck in my dump.
16:32Once you move, that's it.
16:34You can't keep in touch.
16:35What, you've done it before?
16:36Loads.
16:38And this time, I'm staying.
16:41I could understand, you know, if you did decide to leave.
16:44I'd do the same if I was in your shoes.
16:45Listen, I'm not going anywhere.
16:47You're being very reasonable about this, Nicky.
16:59Now you've found that pointy rescue place.
17:01He'll be happier with his own sound.
17:03Let's hope they teach him some manners.
17:05You all right?
17:06Yeah, it's just to be in.
17:20What do you think?
17:20We've pushed Jack too far.
17:22How do you mean?
17:23Well, he's acting like he swallowed a pack with steroids.
17:25So it worked.
17:27Just what he needed.
17:28Stop him being such a wimp.
17:29Yeah, but you can't go too far.
17:31All right, it sounds like you might need a bit of treatment yourself.
17:38I spoke to you on the phone about the exhibition fireworks.
17:41In front of you.
17:41Is that all you got?
17:48That's your lot.
17:50It's just, I need something special.
17:52Well, like I said, there they are.
17:56Anyway, that one's not bad.
17:58Nah, I need something bigger.
18:01All right, then.
18:02You look too young to be from the trading standards.
18:05Who?
18:05Like school prefects, son.
18:07Only worse.
18:09Now, what would you like?
18:10A rocket.
18:11Just one.
18:12But a big one.
18:16There you are.
18:17Direct from China.
18:19Poor man on the moon, this.
18:21It's not dangerous, is it?
18:22No, it's all lies.
18:24It's course we're undercutting them.
18:25The big boys don't like it.
18:27Ah, right.
18:28British standards, this.
18:29British standards, that.
18:31It's turning into a police state.
18:33Yeah.
18:34It's open.
18:43She's making a lead.
18:45I better go.
18:46She won't know we're here.
18:47Come on.
18:48What are we looking for?
18:50Design enables proof they're knocking them out.
18:57Here we go.
18:59We're off.
18:59At least he gives them some exercise.
19:02Still gives me a thrill.
19:04They're all these years.
19:05Did he say thrill?
19:09Oh, I think it's moving.
19:10Look, it's changed in colour.
19:12Jeff, come and go up to the attic.
19:14What for?
19:15We'll be able to stay for miles.
19:16Everyone's displays.
19:17We'll be dead careful with the girls' clothes.
19:19If you want to.
19:21You'll miss out on the spark, rest.
19:22Wow, how exciting.
19:24All the more reason to take care.
19:26No.
19:27How about the Catherine win?
19:31Bit of a monster, eh, lads?
19:32Aye, but where's the competition?
19:34Well, if it's going to be a walkover, I might as well keep me powder dry.
19:36Hold up.
19:40Try this for size.
19:41It's massive.
19:42Sorry.
19:43No contest.
19:44Looks like you're finished, big man.
19:46How do you figure that?
19:46Ollie, it's obvious.
19:48Oh, that's just where you're wrong.
19:49Nothing's obvious, not let's up there.
19:51Do you want any spire and blanks?
19:52Wouldn't surprise me.
19:53Not one bit.
19:54Highest wins, mine first.
20:02Remember now, keep your distance.
20:04And put them in the bucket when you're finished.
20:05Back off, Jeff.
20:06We're not little kids.
20:07It's not from your own amusement, Bradley.
20:09I've seen accidents happen.
20:10Must be from one of the houses.
20:17Yes!
20:18Whoa, look at that one!
20:20What's wrong with my display?
20:22That one, Jeff's?
20:23He's got to be joking.
20:24But it came from the grove, didn't it?
20:25Nice one.
20:26Top that.
20:27You haven't seen it out yet.
20:30Nothing.
20:32Well, at least you didn't see us.
20:34But we didn't find anything.
20:37What about the van?
20:40Come on, get him, quick.
20:49Whoa!
20:58I didn't know you could read Chinese.
21:00You sure you know what you're doing?
21:01All fireworks are the same.
21:03It's just rubbish put out by the big boys.
21:05Match here.
21:06You listen to the big man.
21:07That's right.
21:08And here I come.
21:10Where's it going?
21:23It's heading for the grove.
21:24I don't know.
21:26Jeff!
21:26I love you!
21:38Wait, there is a fire engine, ambulance.
21:40Wait, stop here.
21:44Regina! Laura!
21:47Get out! Quick!
21:51Quick! Out!
21:52There's loads of stuff here. They can't make all this themselves.
21:56Shh!
22:03What's she doing here?
22:10Look!
22:15It's locked!
22:22Sorry, Geoff.
22:26Don't worry. Just glad you're safe and well.
22:29Is the girl stuff okay?
22:31A bit singed and smoky. We're very lucky.
22:34Cheers, mate. Appreciate it.
22:37So no harm done?
22:39Oh, there will be. Soon.
22:41Right, then. Everything okay?
22:43No. So keep quiet and listen.
22:45The firemen found these at the bottom of the grove.
22:48What are they?
22:50Rocket launches.
22:52I want to know who's responsible.
22:54And they'll get it when I find out.
22:56Don't, Jack.
22:57Just drop it all in it.
22:58Don't worry.
22:59I'm good all night.
23:04Where are we going?
23:05I don't know, but we seem to be getting there pretty fast.
23:08We've stopped.
23:10Oh!
23:11What was that?
23:12It's a kite!
23:13Oh, girl!
23:14Get it down, Raleigh!
23:15What is it?
23:16It's a rampage.
23:17Come on!
23:18Come on, let's go!
23:19Biker!
23:20Biker!
23:21Biker!
23:22Biker!
23:23Biker!
23:24What is it?
23:31It's a rampage.
23:33Come on!
23:35Come on, let's go!
23:54Bike up!
23:56Bike up!
23:58Bike up!
24:00Bike up!
24:02Bike up!
24:04Yeah!
