Transcript
00:30Yes, Benny?
00:49You know me and Tucker got a detention tonight for messing about in the swimming pool?
00:53Yes.
00:54Well, I was wondering if I could miss it tonight, sir?
00:57Why?
00:58I've got to go with my mum and be measured for a new blazer, sir.
01:01Oh, that's good news.
01:02Is your dad back at work then?
01:03No, sir.
01:04It's gonna be off for ages.
01:05It's a lady from the Social Security come round with a grant or something,
01:09because he's sick.
01:10Oh, I see.
01:11Yes, all right.
01:12We'll make it tomorrow.
01:13Don't forget.
01:14Don't forget.
01:15I won't.
01:17Thank you, sir.
01:19Thank you, sir.
01:20Thank you, sir.
01:22Thank you, sir.
01:23Thank you, sir.
01:24Thank you, sir.
01:25Thank you, sir.
01:26Okay.
01:27Jenkins, where do you think you're going?
01:29Dinner, sir.
01:30Have I told anybody they could go yet?
01:32I thought you did, sir.
01:33Well, as usual, Jenkins, you thought wrong.
01:34Go and sit down and wait until everybody else has gone.
01:38I'll end up getting starved on Booker Benson's table.
01:41Well, perhaps you'd rather add it on to your detention time tonight.
01:44No, sir.
01:46Right.
01:47I'd just like to remind you, before you all go,
01:50if there is anybody else who wants to go on holiday with the school,
01:53they must let me know by this afternoon.
01:55Okay?
01:56Right.
01:57Off you go.
02:05Come on, Judy.
02:06I want to get home early.
02:07Oh, I'm not.
02:08Go and have lunch today.
02:09We're staying for school milk this week.
02:10You might have said so.
02:11Why?
02:12What's the big rush for?
02:23Oh, yes, there is just one more thing.
02:28Perhaps you've passed it on.
02:29The school magazine will be published shortly,
02:31so if any of you want to contribute something,
02:33you'd better start thinking about it now.
02:35Can we do anything we like for it, sir?
02:36Yes, Judy, anything you think might be of interest?
02:38Can we write something about how boring it is here, sir?
02:41You don't find it boring, do you, Jenkins?
02:43Yes, sir.
02:43You surprise me.
02:45The amount of detention time you put in,
02:46I thought you couldn't bear to tear yourself away from the place.
02:50Off you go.
02:53All right, Jenkins, get off.
02:58Trisha, you'll make yourself sick eating like that.
03:10It's certainly making me feel sick.
03:12What's the big rush to get back to school for, anyway?
03:14Going to help Mr Rankin.
03:16Who's Mr Rankin?
03:17Some old dodger who teaches biology.
03:19Bit senile, if you ask me.
03:20He isn't.
03:21He is.
03:23He walks around with bicycle clips on all day.
03:24So, it doesn't make him senile.
03:25Does if he hasn't got a bike?
03:26He has got a bike, and you've got no right to talk about him like that.
03:29All right, all right, that'll do.
03:30Can't you see Carol's only teasing you?
03:32Well, she's stupid, and she's always making fun of me.
03:34Well, who is Mr Rankin, anyway?
03:36He's a biology teacher, and he's ever so nice, Mum.
03:39Is he?
03:40Yeah.
03:41Very quiet, not like any of the other teachers.
03:44Yeah, he walks around with bicycle clips on all day.
03:46How?
03:47Well, she's always making fun of me.
03:49The way you're kind, I don't think you had a crush on old Rankin.
03:52I haven't.
03:53If you want to have a crush on someone, what about that full master of yours?
03:58Mitchell, isn't it?
03:59Yeah.
04:00Quite fancy him myself.
04:01Carol.
04:02He's horrible, and he sometimes mows a bit after lunch.
04:05Does he now?
04:06I wonder what pub he goes to.
04:07How do you dare?
04:08I'm only joking, Mum.
04:09I'm going back to school.
04:11You've only been home 15 minutes.
04:13I told you I'm going to help Mr Rankin.
04:15Help him do what?
04:16To tidy up around the lab, get things ready this afternoon, that sort of thing.
04:20You're mad, that's slave labour.
04:22It isn't.
04:23I want to do it.
04:24See you tonight, Mum.
04:26Hey, just a minute.
04:27What about those earrings?
04:28I don't know how many times I've told you about wearing them.
04:30It's all right in the lunch hour, Mum. Honest.
04:32So she takes them out before going in.
04:34She'll be all right.
04:35Very well.
04:36Just you make sure you do.
04:37OK.
04:38Bye.
04:39Oh, Tricia!
04:40You better take my money for your school holiday while I've got it.
04:45OK.
04:46Bye.
04:49Tricia!
04:53Watch out for his bicycle clip.
04:55Oh, Carol.
04:56I've finished ours, Mr Rankin.
05:10My word!
05:11Well done, Tricia!
05:13You know, I never expected anybody would get them that clean.
05:16That's absolutely splendid.
05:18Thank you, Mr Rankin.
05:19Now, what was it I came?
05:20Oh, yes.
05:21Lunch.
05:22I think I'm hungry.
05:24Oh, if only we could be like the snakes.
05:27Well, they're sensible creatures, snakes, you know.
05:30They don't waste time like we do.
05:32They don't eat very often.
05:34But when they do...
05:35Oh, still.
05:36Is there anything else I can do, Mr Rankin?
05:38Are you sure you've got the time?
05:39Oh, yeah.
05:40Well, as a matter of fact,
05:42I had been hoping that somebody might volunteer to clean that out.
05:47I'm afraid it hasn't been touched for some quite considerable time.
05:50That's all right, Mr Rankin. Leave it to me.
05:52Oh, well.
05:53If you'll say so, I will.
05:55By the way, did I tell you what you should and should not touch?
05:58Yes, Mr Rankin.
05:59Do not touch...
06:00Right.
06:01Good.
06:02Splendid.
06:03I won't be long.
06:10I'll go.
06:26Hello, Trisha.
06:27What do you want?
06:29I, er...
06:30I came to see you.
06:32You're not supposed to be here.
06:34Mr Rankin only allows me in here to help you.
06:37Oh, come on. Let me stay.
06:39I thought I might do an article for the school magazine.
06:41About the school animals.
06:43What school magazine?
06:44Haven't you seen it?
06:45Well, if I had, I wouldn't be asking, would I?
06:47No, sorry.
06:48Well, what is it?
06:50Oh, it's printed by the school.
06:52I figured that bit out.
06:54Look, do you want to know or not?
06:55Yeah.
06:56Well, it comes out every month, I think.
07:00And anyone can do a poem or story or article or anything for it.
07:04Sounds a bit soppy to me.
07:06Well, I like it.
07:07And I'm going to do an article for it.
07:10Can we take them out?
07:12No.
07:13No-one can take them out.
07:14Not even you.
07:15Well, if I wanted to, I could.
07:17But I'm too busy.
07:18I bet you're not allowed to take them out.
07:20I am.
07:21I'm Mr Rankin's assistant.
07:23I can do anything.
07:24Prove it.
07:25I'm too busy, I said.
07:26There you are.
07:27You can't.
07:28All right.
07:29But just a little hold.
07:32Hold it like this.
07:37Isn't he gorgeous?
07:38What are you two doing in here?
07:39Where?
07:40I have Mr Rankin, Miss Clark.
07:41Helping him?
07:42His lunchtime assistant, Miss.
07:43Are you wearing earrings?
07:44Yes, Miss.
07:45You are aware that only fifth forms and above are allowed to wear jewellery?
07:47Yes, Miss.
07:48And you still wear them?
07:49Perhaps you think the school rules don't apply to you.
07:52Well?
07:53I thought it'd be all right.
07:54I need to go.
07:55I'm a little bit.
07:56What are you two doing in here?
07:57I'm a little bit surprised.
07:58I'm a little bit surprised.
07:59I'm a little bit surprised.
08:00Did you see him?
08:01I'm a little bit surprised, but I don't know.
08:03I'm a little bit surprised.
08:04I'm a little bit surprised.
08:05Hi, Miss.
08:06You are aware that only fifth forms and above are allowed to wear jewellery?
08:09Yes, Miss.
08:10And you still wear them?
08:11Or perhaps you think the school rules don't apply to you?
08:16Well?
08:17I thought it'd be all right. In the lunch, I mean, miss.
08:20Well, you thought wrong, didn't you? Take them off.
08:24Report to me for detention at 4 o'clock tomorrow. Yes, miss.
08:27What's your name? Trisha Yates, miss.
08:29Form? One Alpha, miss. And you?
08:31I'm her friend, miss. Gigi Preston. Form One Alpha, miss.
08:36Does Mr Rankin know you're both here? Yes, miss.
08:39He's just gone for some lunch, miss. Yes. It's a wonder he remembered.
08:44Very well. Carry on with what you're doing.
08:46And don't touch anything you shouldn't.
08:53Thanks, Trisha. I had to say that, didn't I?
08:55Or I'd have got the motor centre for letting you in here.
08:59Oh, well. I suppose I'd better go. Yeah.
09:05Bye. Trisha!
09:11Oh, no! There it is!
09:14It's quite the other end, don't it, gang?
09:18What do we do now? We'll have to catch it, of course.
09:20How? I don't know.
09:22I know. Look, one of us will have to pull the shoves while everyone grabs the hamster.
09:27How?
09:28Drop your blazer on it like an air.
09:30But what happens if it runs the other way?
09:32Take this book. Right, now block off your end with it and come over here.
09:36Oh, be careful, Trisha. You don't want to squash him.
09:41I won't. Are you ready?
09:47Trisha, look out!
09:48Quick, it's going to the prep room!
09:51Oh, well, it's going to be a big deal.
09:54I'll be waiting for you.
09:55I'll be waiting for you.
09:56I'll be waiting for you.
09:57I'll be waiting for you.
09:58What? It's yours. You pull the shoves too hard.
09:59I knew I wanted to take it out of the cage in the first place.
10:01Well, who left the cage door open?
10:03That was an accident.
10:07It could be anywhere.
10:09What's in here?
10:12Trisha!
10:13Look!
10:15Oh, no, it must have gone out.
10:21Trisha, what are you doing?
10:22The blaster ran over here, but we'll never find it if it did.
10:26We can try, can't we?
10:28We've got to find it.
10:30Look, it's hopeless.
10:31It might not have even run out here.
10:33The door was open, wasn't it?
10:35I suppose so, but...
10:37Oh, what am I going to do?
10:39Look, it was an accident, wasn't it?
10:41And we have tried to find it.
10:43I should have just got it out in the first place.
10:46What's going to happen when Mr Rankin gets back?
10:49Come on.
10:50We'd better not stay out here.
10:51Mr Clark might get back and see the terrible mess inside.
11:04Look, I must have saw and I shouted at you.
11:06I didn't really mean it.
11:07That's all right.
11:08Oh, but what are we going to do?
11:10I don't know.
11:11But he'll be back soon.
11:12Well, he'll just have to tell him what happened.
11:13I can't.
11:14He never let me help him again.
11:16Not after this.
11:17Well, he'll know soon enough when he gets back and sees a cage.
11:22Unless...
11:23Unless what?
11:24Why don't we replace a hamster?
11:25How?
11:26We could get one from a pet shop in the London Road.
11:28Do you think it would work?
11:29So we'll have to try.
11:30How much did I cost?
11:31I don't know, but they can't be very much.
11:33Oh, but I haven't got any money.
11:36Have you?
11:37No.
11:38Yeah.
11:39Mum gave me some money for my school holiday.
11:41We could use that.
11:42What will your mum say?
11:43I'll sort that out with her later.
11:44You'll have to go while I'll clean up in here.
11:46OK.
11:47See you.
11:48Hit the top.
11:58You'll have to probably see me.
12:06Right here.
12:09I know not about this.
12:12Well, I'm kind of portraying up here.
12:13Oh, yes, love.
12:36Do you have your hands, please?
12:38Over there.
12:39Any particular one?
12:43That one there, please.
12:45Are you sure?
12:46So please hurry.
12:47That one in the corner?
12:48Yes.
12:51If you want it on the phone.
12:53Will you give that girl that little hamster in the corner?
13:10Your change?
13:11Your change?
13:39Oh.
13:40Are you still here?
13:41Yes, Miss.
13:42Please.
13:43Please.
13:44Please.
13:45Please.
13:46Please.
14:20Come on, Judy.
14:50And what have we got here, then?
14:59Nothing!
15:00Oh, isn't it?
15:01Let's see, shall we?
15:04Excuse me, sir.
15:05Did you get him?
15:29Yes, only just there.
15:30Mr. Rank is right behind him.
15:47Stupid, it's the wrong colour.
15:49I'm sorry I'm late.
15:52I had one or two things to do after lunch.
15:54And then I had to go...
15:57My word, Trisha.
15:59You have done well.
16:02Hello.
16:05Well, that's odd.
16:06What on earth?
16:14Now who's stupid?
16:15It must have been here all the time.
16:16Well, you saw the door.
16:18Yes, but I said it might not have escaped.
16:19I suppose I'd better tell you what happened, sir.
16:44Yes, I think you'd better.
16:44Well, we took the hamster out of the cage.
16:48Just to have a look.
16:49It got away and we couldn't catch it.
16:51Trisha didn't want you to find out,
16:52so we thought we'd get you another hamster.
16:54But everything got in the muddle,
16:55and I got the wrong colour.
16:57We're terribly sorry, sir.
16:58We shouldn't have taken it out of the cage.
17:01Well, your plans did go wrong, didn't they?
17:03If I'd only got the wrong colour,
17:06you've also got the wrong sex.
17:07Mr. would have become Mrs.
17:17Now,
17:18would either of you think it unreasonable
17:21if I were to report you both to Mrs. Munro?
17:25No, neither would I.
17:28The only thing that prevents me
17:29is that you did try to put things right.
17:31Most children would have sloped off
17:33and pretended to know nothing about it.
17:34I couldn't have done that, sir.
17:35No, obviously not.
17:38If you showed the same effort
17:39and imagination in your schoolwork,
17:42I'm sure a lot of your teachers
17:43would be very happy,
17:44including me.
17:46However, there's no great harm done.
17:49I'm sure you both give yourselves
17:50a very nasty shock.
17:52I think the best thing we can do
17:54is to forget the whole thing.
17:55Just this once, mind.
17:58Another time I won't be quite so lenient.
18:00Thank you, sir.
18:01Thank you, sir.
18:03Now then,
18:03did you get a leadership
18:05from the shop in London Road?
18:07Yes, sir.
18:08Well, I think the best thing
18:08that can happen is that
18:09I'll return her on my way home.
18:12You tell her how much she was
18:13and I'll give you the money.
18:16Was, er...
18:17£1.25, sir.
18:19£1.25?
18:23There you are.
18:24I think you two
18:25had better get along to registration,
18:26hadn't you?
18:27There you are.
18:34Bye, sir.
18:35Oh, Tricia.
18:38Will you be coming back here tomorrow?
18:40I'd rather not,
18:40if you don't mind, sir.
18:42Oh, yes, I was forgetting.
18:43You're going to want some spare time,
18:45aren't you?
18:46Miss Clark told me about the...
18:49not your day, is it, Tricia?
18:51No, sir.
18:52No.
18:53Bye, sir.
18:53Bye-bye.
18:54I can see why you like him, Tricia.
18:59He's so understanding.
19:00I couldn't see Miss Clark
19:01letting myself like that.
19:02You'll have to include her
19:03in your article about animals.
19:05Why?
19:06Because she's a cow.
19:07Tricia!
19:08Well, I ask you.
19:09It was the lunch hour.
19:11Don't think the school
19:11shall have any right
19:12to tell you what to do
19:13in your own time.
19:14Now, that's something
19:15I could write about
19:16in the school magazine.
19:17Do you think they'd let me?
19:18No, I'm more than likely censor it.
19:20Better stick to animals safer.
19:22Are you sure?
19:24I'm more than likely censor it.
19:27I'll tell you.
19:28I'll tell you.
19:29I'm more than likely censor it.
19:30I'll tell you.
19:31When's your thing?
19:32God.
19:33Ain't mercy receber me a little
19:33than you sign?
19:34How can people who have
19:36help you to?

19:40including$10,000.
