00:00The local authority are having a meeting today at three to discuss our status.
00:04Whether we're failing as a school or whether I'm failing as a head.
00:08You get another girl pregnant, you're on your own, son.
00:11This is Scout. She's new today and she's in your class.
00:14I'm pregnant.
00:15My daddy's gonna kill me.
00:17My period's late. It's Aiden's.
00:19You're being so stupid.
00:22It wasn't enough Nikki, my girlfriend, was it? You had to get her pregnant as well.
00:26It gives me no joy to serve a warning notice.
00:30On this school.
01:00On this school.
01:02Oh, oh, oh.
01:03Say ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
01:33I'll be there for school.
01:38They're paying you, are they?
01:48Jess, are you all right? I've got an early meeting.
01:54Fine.
01:57Apparently it's worse in the beginning.
01:59OK. If you're sure.
02:01I've decided I'm going to keep it.
02:04Great. Uncle Harry, how old does that sound?
02:12You're absolutely certain that's what you want?
02:14Well, you said it's my decision.
02:16And I'll back you.
02:19Can we just keep it to ourselves for now?
02:22The last thing we need is for the whole school to find out.
02:26Did you hear that, Harry?
02:27Yeah.
02:28Speak later.
02:31Speak later.
02:31Let's go.
03:01I'm sorry for dragging you in so early, but I wouldn't do it without good reason.
03:14The L.A. have served us with a warning notice.
03:18What, they're shutting us down?
03:20What?
03:20No, it's only a warning.
03:23Um, no final decision has been made.
03:26That's reassuring.
03:28On what grounds?
03:29They're blaming a breakdown in management.
03:34My management.
03:35But we have got the full support of the governors.
03:38And we'll be appealing the notice.
03:40Well, I'm glad to hear it.
03:41The bottom line is, we have to be whiter than white.
03:44Well, can we put this behind us today, as it's the sixth form elections?
03:53Try and enjoy it.
03:55Pointless charade, if ever there was one.
03:57We'll be announcing the results after school.
03:59Thanks, everyone.
04:03Richard, everyone's pretty rattled.
04:05She's just told them about it, but I thought you should know.
04:08She's saying she's got the support of the governors.
04:11No, look, it's a weekend viewing or nothing.
04:14I'm very busy at work.
04:16Ugh.
04:16Estate agents.
04:18Just kill them.
04:19Right, time to prove what a load of crap this warning notice is.
04:22Why bother?
04:23It'll be P45s by Friday.
04:25Well, not if we offer Karen our full support.
04:27Starting by getting behind the kids and nailing our colours to the mast.
04:30Sure you want to take me on?
04:31I was a member of the Tory party at 15.
04:33Accounts for nothing round here.
04:34Wait.
04:35Labour heartland.
04:36Lib Dem?
04:37What, and get into bed with you, what?
04:40I wouldn't mind getting into bed with you.
04:44Metaphorically speaking, you know what?
04:45Vote Conservative, guys!
04:50Aye, vote for Labour.
04:51Make sure you vote for Jess.
04:52Conservative.
04:53So you're going to stop coming.
04:54Vote Conservative.
05:01Minion.
05:01What did you expect from the slapper party anyway?
05:06What are you like?
05:07Serious?
05:08These are dangerous weapons.
05:09They'll massage you into submission, anything.
05:11Oh, I'd like to take you up on that.
05:15Don't forget to hold the senses.
05:17Well, thank you.
05:24How's it going?
05:25Yeah, great.
05:27Well, the longer you leave it, the harder it's going to be.
05:29You hate me.
05:32Yeah.
05:33Wait, come on.
05:34Come on.
05:35We agreed.
05:37You're going to step up and take some responsibility.
05:39You're a Scotcher.
05:40You do the right thing.
05:41Good.
05:42Good.
05:45Well, Conservative, the future's bright, the future's blue.
05:50Didn't know you spotted City.
05:54Oh, Jess, can we just talk about this?
05:56Which bitch do you want to talk about?
05:56The fact that you cheated on me or the fact that we're both pregnant?
05:59I'm trying to do the right thing.
06:00Give you some support.
06:02Yeah, well, you haven't told anyone, have you?
06:04Hardly.
06:05Good.
06:06Because it's no one's business.
06:08This is my baby too.
06:09I've got rights.
06:10You had your chance, Aidan, and you were AWOL.
06:16Cassie.
06:25Come in.
06:30What is it?
06:30I've had a long chat with Aidan, and he'll speak with the girls today.
06:39Well, that's a start.
06:41No, he'll do the right thing, Karen.
06:44I'll make sure that...
06:46Good.
06:49Is there anything else?
06:50No.
06:52I'll leave you toot.
06:53Add ten drops of ethanol to the sodium dichromate, and shake.
07:05Scout, you're late again.
07:08I haven't got a pen, sir.
07:10Here.
07:13Sit down.
07:16Right.
07:18And finally, we gently heat the test tube over the Bunsen burner.
07:23Oh, that stinks.
07:30Nearly as bad as scalp.
07:32Enzo.
07:33Take a proper sniff.
07:35Hopefully it's poisonous.
07:36Oi, that's enough, you two.
07:37Right, everyone, back to your seats.
07:42Homework.
07:43I want you to write up the results of this experiment on these worksheets.
07:48And bring it in next lesson, please.
07:50Yes.
07:53Is there any danger of you ever turning up on time?
07:57I keep getting lost, sir.
07:59I'm not used to hurrying.
08:00Well, this place isn't a drop-in centre.
08:02Make sure you get a work sheet off me before you leave.
08:16Uh-uh.
08:17Kids before pigs.
08:18OMG, you just touched it.
08:20Antecept it quick.
08:21Welcome to the first of today's hostings.
08:33Miss Chowdhury.
08:35Each candidate will make a brief opening statement.
08:38First up, Jess Fisher, Conservatives.

09:08Woo!
09:09Woo!
09:10Woo!
09:11Woo!
09:12Woo!
09:13Doesn't that prove just how out of touch the Conservatives are?
09:16Woo!
09:17We want to know what you think.
09:18We're going to set up an entertainment committee.
09:21It's a good party.
09:22To get this party started.
09:23Woo!
09:24Woo!
09:25Woo!
09:26Woo!
09:27Woo!
09:28Woo!
09:29What about a mother and toddler group?
09:31It's a bit of an exclusive club.
09:34Oh, for God's sake.
09:35Stop going on like it's something to be proud of.
09:37Just let it go.
09:39I mean, I don't think you're going to get the sympathy vote on getting pregnant with that
09:42idiot.
09:43Woo!
09:44You can't talk, you hypocrite.
09:47Shut it, Aidan.
09:48What?
09:49You gonna deny it?
09:51She's up the duff as well.
09:53You couldn't keep your big mouth shut, could you?
09:57Have any of them heard of protection?
09:59No, they don't make condoms small enough for him.
10:02All right, let's just simmer down, shall we?
10:05Get back to the election, please.
10:07All right, please.
10:08Settle down.
10:09Yeah, let's say from the other two, cos I'm not gonna waste my vote on these two slappers.
10:12You, into the cooler, now.
10:20I had no idea.
10:21Oh, I'm sorry, did I not run it by you first?
10:24It's Aidan's.
10:25Yes, it's Aidan's. I don't sleep a bath.
10:28Will you all shut up?
10:31Peter Gillen, green party.
10:35Hey, what do you think you're doing?
10:36Get yourself dressed. See me in the pastoral care office.
10:52What are you doing stealing food?
10:53Don't they feed you at home?
10:54Big appetite.
10:55I don't think so. Your skin and bones.
10:56Metabolism, isn't it?
10:57You know that, being a science teacher.
10:58But washing, isn't it?
10:59You know that, being a science teacher.
11:01But washing?
11:02In the canteen?
11:03It's none of your business.
11:04You know that, being a science teacher.
11:05But washing, in the canteen?
11:06It's none of your business.
11:07You know that, being a science teacher.
11:08It's one of your business.
11:09It's one of your business.
11:10It's one of mine.
11:11What are you doing stealing food?
11:12Don't they feed you at home?
11:15Big appetite.
11:16I don't think so.
11:18Your skin and bones.
11:19Metabolism, isn't it?
11:22You know that, being a science teacher.
11:26But washing, in the canteen?
11:29It's none of your business.
11:31It is, when you're meant to be in class.
11:33Look, I've seen this.
11:35Look, you can stop the teasing by just making sure you have a wash before you come to school.
11:50Mum's log in the bathroom. She's a model. Needs to look good.
11:57I don't have to call her in, Scout.
11:58OK. I'm sorry. It won't happen again. Happy?
12:15No. No, I'm not. Something's going on. What is it?
12:21Nothing's going on. I promise.
12:25Thanks. OK. Off you go.
12:38Scout. If you change your mind, you know where I am.
12:47I'm not tolerating that kind of behaviour. You can take a couple of days to cool off.
12:52What about Jess and Vicky? It takes two to make a baby in case you forgot.
12:56Enough! Apologise.
13:00You're disrupting the whole school. You know that?
13:03You can stop your school.
13:04I really thought I got through to him.
13:16Obviously not.
13:17I'll try again.
13:18The suspension still stands.
13:20Can't you give him another chance?
13:23I'm going to do what's right for the school.
13:27Oi.
13:30Oi.
13:30What is it with you, Aidan?
13:33Huh?
13:34You promised me you're going to grow up. You end up behaving like a petulant child.
13:38Listen to me.
13:39Get off me!
13:41You know, as soon as things look alright, you're screwed up for us.
13:46What is it you expect from me?
13:49I am what I am.
13:50I'm going to screw up.
13:52I'd change that.
13:53Yeah, come in.
14:04I hear you got some concerns about Geordie Allen.
14:08At least the grapevine's in fine working order.
14:10Yep, I've got her file here.
14:12It's a rainforest worth of truancy reports and letters home.
14:15Well, she's, er, she's definitely here today.
14:18In body, at least.
14:26I'll take it from here.
14:34Come on, Goldilocks.
14:42I'm not giving up this time, Scout.
14:44So, you may as well stop all the games and tell me exactly what's going on.
14:48I was up early on my paper round.
14:51Loads of kids have paper rounds.
14:52You don't see them fall in a sleeping class.
14:55You ever been to one of Mr. Chalk's lessons?
14:57The last thing that this school needs at the moment is a reputation for letting kids sleep the day away.
15:03That should be off.
15:08Oi.
15:14I'll take you that's yours?
15:18No.
15:18You've got it wrong.
15:20Give them back so I need them.
15:21Come on.
15:22You're coming with me.
15:22It's my mum.
15:23She's ill.
15:24She's got MS.
15:34Please, Mr. Mead.
15:35She's rarely suffering.
15:37The drugs the doctors give her.
15:39They're rubbish.
15:42Let me have it back.
15:43Please.
15:44You know that I can't do that.
15:47Look, I'm sorry about your mum.
15:49You're not sorry.
15:51You're just like all the rest.
15:52Scout!
15:59Scout!
16:01Scout!
16:01Scout!
16:06Aye, aye.
16:08Is it Mare?
16:10Or is it the machine?
16:11No.
16:12It's Berminator!
16:15Shut it!
16:21What are you doing?
16:22Leaving.
16:24I'm not a kid anymore.
16:24I can look after myself.
16:26You can't leave.
16:27Watch me!
16:29Have you forgotten something?
16:33I'm pregnant.
16:34And so is Jess.
16:35We need to talk.
16:36You'll be fine.
16:37And how do you work that one out?
16:39I've got no one else.
16:41It's too late.
16:43I'm out of here.
16:49Oh.
16:50Mrs. Allen?
16:51Hi, it's Chris Meade from Waterloo Road.
16:56That woman.
16:57I knew I wasn't the only one that they hung up on.
16:59Oh, that's fair trade.
17:13Oh, on teacher's wages.
17:15I knew you couldn't do it.
17:16And what's that?
17:17Green is too much of a modern concept.
17:19You're still steam engines and coal fires.
17:22A dinosaur.
17:22I can do green.
17:24Tennis as you can.
17:25I'll have some of that.
17:26Wouldn't be wrong.
17:28Daniel?
17:29Easiest money I'll make all week.
17:31Tom.
17:32Have you got a sec?
17:35I've just found this on Jodie Allen.
17:37Oh.
17:37Well, that explains a lot.
17:39Yeah, but she's saying her mum's got MS.
17:40You don't believe that.
17:41Can you file it for me while I get it checked out?
17:45Yeah.
17:45Of course.
17:48Well, the LA can't accuse us of not caring.
17:53What do you think?
17:55Fitting for a returning officer?
17:58Very Maggie.
18:00Who's that?
18:11Here we go.
18:13Thanks.
18:16Hey, my mum went right on one when I told her that I was up the spout.
18:20I thought that it was going to make her feel a bit older,
18:22but it's given her a right lease of life.
18:25Oh.
18:26That's reassuring to know.
18:28Although she did take up knitting.
18:33Could you get Chris Mead to countersign that
18:36and then fax the whole thing through to the governors?
18:41I hope you don't mind me asking,
18:44but this warning notice,
18:46am I going to be out of a job?
18:48I don't think it'll come to that.
18:50Well, when will I know?
18:51I mean, I have got Cheryl to look after.
18:53I think we'll be all right.
18:59Hey.
19:01Just to let you know if there's anything I can do to help with the appeal.
19:05I'm on it.
19:06Well, I'm here if you need me.
19:08If there's anything at all that I can do,
19:10then let me know.
19:24Derek.
19:26I've lost that bag of weed.
19:27I can't find it anywhere.
19:29I'm sorry.
19:32Have a word.
19:33I can't find it anywhere.
19:34I can't find it anywhere.
19:35I can't find it anywhere.
19:36I can't find it anywhere.
19:37I can't find it anywhere.
19:38I can't find it anywhere.
19:39I can't find it anywhere.
19:40I can't find it anywhere.
19:41I can't find it anywhere.
19:42I can't find it anywhere.
19:43I can't find it anywhere.
19:44I can't find it anywhere.
19:45I can't find it anywhere.
19:46I can't find it anywhere.
19:47I can't find it anywhere.
19:48I can't find it anywhere.
19:49I can't find it anywhere.
19:50I can't find it anywhere.
19:51I can't find it anywhere.
19:52I can't find it anywhere.
19:53I can't find it anywhere.
19:54I can't find it anywhere.
19:55I can't find it anywhere.
19:56I can't find it anywhere.
19:57I didn't have to turn around. I could feel them in the back of my brain. When I stepped into the room.
20:20I had to do it on the hub. Thanks.
20:23I was waiting for scouts to put some more money on Lecky. I thought I'd find her here.
20:29I haven't seen her since this morning. She told me about your illness. It must be hard for all of you.
20:35I caught her with drugs. She said it was for your MS.
20:40Yeah. Yeah, that's right. I know when I've been played.
20:49Look, they're not hers. She just looks often for people. Cops don't turn over fifteen-year-old girls.
20:57And you're okay with that?
21:02Benefits don't go very far, and until that number's come up, it's one way of bringing extra cash in.
21:08One way. She's got a paper around as well.
21:11You can't rely on Scout to provide for your family. What does your social worker say?
21:15No, don't tell them. They'll take her away.
21:19She's a child. She shouldn't have this much responsibility.
21:24Look, she turns up for school, doesn't she?
21:27Look, I don't know what she was used to at her last school, but we take the welfare of our pupils very seriously.
21:33Look, she's all right. Just... just leave us alone. It's not fair on Scout. Please.
21:39She's all I've got.
21:47No, I understand. Thanks for your time.
21:54Problems?
21:55Social services can't help out with Scout. They say she's not a high risk.
22:00Well, if things didn't go too well with the mother then.
22:03Well, she's a complete waste of time. She relies on Scout to do everything.
22:06And the authorities have got their hands tied, so...
22:09...another kid are lost in the system.
22:11I'm sure they're entitled to some help, if the woman's ill.
22:16She was lying about the MS.
22:19She's running drugs to pay the bills.
22:21Tom.
22:25Can we lose them?
22:28Why, you're not serious?
22:30There's a kid's future that we're talking about.
22:33Look, there's a line you don't cross, especially when you've got this warning notice hanging over us.
22:37If this girl drops out of here in a couple of years, she'll be just like her mum.
22:41A kid in tow and all the spark on. I don't want that to happen.
22:46Please.
22:47You get assaulted by the end of the day, I'll take her name off the phone.
22:52But you've still got a one for drugs in.
22:54Cheers, mate.
22:56You've got my vote.
22:57Cheers.
22:58Cheers.
22:59Cheers.
23:00Cheers.
23:01Cheers.
23:02Cheers.
23:03Cheers.
23:04Cheers.
23:05Cheers.
23:06Cheers.

23:11Cheers.
23:12Cheers.
23:13Cheers.
23:14Cheers.
23:15Cheers.
23:16Where'd you find that?
23:17Antique crew show?
23:18What happened?
23:19Daddy take off your stabilisers?
23:20I was only messing you, loon.
23:21Hey.
23:22You all right?
23:23What do you care?
23:24You're just jealous.
23:25Why are you the minger?
23:26Because it'll be me that is running those fingers off.
23:27Wheeeee!
23:28Two nil Scotcher, back in the net.
23:29Shut up.
23:30Hey, at least your CSA won't be on your case.
23:31Oh, mate, they're gonna bank up David and big time.
23:33Cheever being a japper.
23:34Leave him alone.
23:35What, like you did?
23:36I didn't do it.
23:37You did it.
23:38See you, I didn't do it.
23:39Oh, you, I didn't do it.
23:40I did, I didn't do it.
23:41I didn't do it.
23:42You, I didn't do it.
23:43I didn't do it.
23:44I didn't do it.
23:45I didn't do it.
23:46I didn't do it.
23:47I didn't do it.
23:48You, I didn't do it.
23:49I didn't do it.
23:50up to Aiden, big time. Cheaper being a japper. Leave him alone. What, like you did?
23:56Ronan, wait. You know Aiden's left? Pity he didn't take you with him. Ladies, mind if
24:06we'd join you? Er, we were just leaving. Yeah, I wasn't. I need that grass back. Your mum
24:17hasn't got MS. I went round to your flat. Think you know everything about us now then,
24:23do you? I know that she shouldn't be relying on you like she does. I'm in trouble because
24:28of you. They want the stuff. Don't you get it? Yes, I get it. Which is why there's no
24:33way I'm going to give it you back. Your mum might not have a problem with what you're
24:37doing, but I do. It's illegal. So? So if you get caught, it's a one way ticket
24:44into care. Or prison. What are you going to do? Grass me up! If that's what it takes,
24:51yes. Now get inside! Hey, it's not the end of the world, do you know. I mean, look at
24:58me. Single mum, great job. I couldn't be happier. The actual birth bit is pretty painful
25:04and gross. But you end up with these days. You're waiting for me, Vicky. Come on through.
25:11Just take a seat. I want to leave. Why? Ian's going. Is he taking you with him? Hardly.
25:40But I'm as much to blame for this mess. And everyone here hates me. I don't think
25:47so. They do. And seeing them every day reminds me of what a cow I've been. I mean, where did
25:55I go wrong with the lad? It's like he's got a self-destruct button. Not your fault. You've
26:02got to stop making excuses for him. I mean, he did the crime. I'll tell you one thing.
26:07He's not leaving. Well, why not? That's what he wants to do. Because he has to learn you
26:13can't keep running away. He's got everything for him here. Don't you think it's time you'd
26:20stop telling him what to do? He's old enough to make his own decisions.
26:27It shouldn't be your responsibility to provide for your family.
26:31Shouldn't, couldn't, whatever. It's all right for you. With your nice job, nice house, nice
26:37car. We need that money. I'll lend you some. How much?
26:43I'm not a charity case. All right. All right, then work for it. I'll pay you to help out
26:50of the election party tonight. You won't earn as much, but it's a start. You just stay clear
26:55of the drugs. I'm not working for you. My family look after each other. You're looking
27:01after your mum and your brother. Nobody's actually taking care of you. I can take care of
27:06myself. Have you any idea how much trouble you're in?
27:12All right. You need to think about this.
27:28How are you doing? So much for the whole school not finding out. I could kill Aidan. He's
27:51going. I heard. Vicky wants to go as well. Well, I'm sure they'll make a nice couple. Bonnie
28:02and Clyde. She's not leaving with him. She doesn't feel that she's welcome here anymore.
28:10It's perceptive. You don't mean that. Don't I? She could really use a friend right now.
28:22Why is everybody so concerned about her? She slept with my boyfriend behind my back.
28:29She doesn't have anyone, Jess. Don't you think she's had enough punishment?
28:35Well, at least she hasn't got people judging her. Don't pretend you want me to keep this
28:42baby. I just don't want you to do anything you'll regret. The only thing I regret is telling
28:48you anything about it. Atticus warned that it's a sin to kill a mockingbird. Why?
29:05Jodie Allen. Miss Allen? Because they do nothing but sing their hearts out.
29:22Meaning? We shouldn't harm laws who don't harm us. Right. Well, I want two sides from all
29:31of you on the role of Boo Radley in the novel.
29:33Shh!
29:34Who's Boo Radley? What, you need a gas mask seat? That's all right. Turn it off.
29:52You need some money. What is going on? Couldn't lend us a tenner, sir. Cooler! Now!
30:13Oh!
30:14You need some money.
30:15Can I have an iron manual?
30:16And what is that?
30:17I need some money.
30:18I need some money.
30:19I need some money.
30:23Shh!
30:24I'll pay for my time.
30:25I need some money.
30:27All right.
30:28All right.
30:30You need some money.
30:32It's my money.
30:33You need some money, grace.
30:35And I need some money.
30:37All right.
30:38Who's that out for?
30:47F&L is made by the moon.
30:49It's a match.
30:53Carry on with that, yeah?
30:54Barley and potatoes.
31:00Scout?
31:04Did you want me?
31:05Sure.
31:08That job's still available.
31:13How much do you owe him?
31:1625.
31:20Alright.
31:21But there's one condition.
31:25No more couriering.
31:26And you never go near drugs ever again.
31:29That's two conditions.
31:30I'm serious, Scout.
31:32I'm not helping you if I can't trust you.
31:34You can.
31:35Promise.
31:37Good.
31:38And I meant what I said.
31:40You're earning this.
31:41Thanks, sir.
31:42You ought to have without what Ollie wrote.
31:43You need this place.
31:44I'm not the one tied down to a family.
31:45Well, you won't feel so free when that one comes along.
31:46Well, at least I won't have people interfering and telling me what to do with my own kid.
31:59That's because you won't know anybody.
32:00So there won't be much chance of a night out with your mates.
32:01Listen to us.
32:02Like a couple of bitching politicians.
32:04Like a couple of bitching politicians.
32:05Like a couple of bitching politicians.
32:06I'm not happy.
32:07I'm not the one tied down, I'm not the one tied down.
32:08I fuck myself.
32:09I'm not the one tied down.
32:10I'll be happy to be.
32:11Because I'm not the one tied down.
32:12I'm not the one tied down.
32:13You know, I'm not the one tied up.
32:14Well, you won't feel so free when that one comes along.
32:15Well, at least I won't have people interfering and telling me what to do with my own kid.
32:16That's because you won't know anybody.
32:17So there won't be much chance of a night out with your mates.
32:19Listen to us.
32:27Like a couple of bitching politicians.
32:37I am really sorry, you know, Jess.
32:42I just wish this never happened.
32:44Yeah, well, it wasn't exactly on my life plan.
32:50Being up the duff without a paddle before I leave school.
32:55You know, I always said if I had a kid, I'd give it everything I never had.
33:02Like stability, a proper family.
33:05Well, there's not much chance of that now, is there?
33:11You know, I could really use someone to talk to.
33:14Is there someone that understands just how terrifying all this really is?
33:35You all right?
33:36I can't do this anymore.
33:45It's about a bike.
33:46Look, I feel really bad about that.
33:48You just keep the money to pay for it.
33:51I mean it, Darren.
33:55If I get caught...
33:56It doesn't matter what they tell you in there.
34:04You're never going to earn this sort of money anywhere else.
34:11You don't want to let me down, do you, Scout?
34:15Pick up some gear from there and keep it safe till tomorrow.
34:17Now, Larry, if the ladies passed, you will set up a school eco-committee.
34:32What?
34:33You thieving...?
34:34No!
34:35Thieving magpie!
34:36That is one of ours!
34:37We also propose to get rid of school uniform for six months.
34:41Not that old chestnut.
34:42Well, we should have the right to express ourselves.
34:45Well, the fact is, if you've got it, then you'll look good in anything.
34:48I don't have a problem with uniform.
34:51A formal uniform is elitist and unnecessary, much like the Honourable Lady.
34:56Oh!
34:57And what is the Honourable Gentleman going to do when pupils get victimised because they can't afford the latest fashion?
35:05You can get three decent outfits for the cost of a blazer.
35:08Yeah, thanks to sweatshops in the Far East.
35:11I thought you were the party that campaigned for workers' rights.
35:15Is New Labour condoning slave labour?
35:19No, of course not. Of course not.
35:21Sorry, out of time.
35:23Jess?
35:24Uh, the Conservatives will introduce a new pupil-teacher committee where we can all work together on these issues.
35:30Uh, whoa, whoa, and what good is that going to do? They can't even agree on anything as it is.
35:37OK, voting is now opening the halls.
35:41VIRGINOS
35:49D through
35:52VIRGINOS
35:54I thought I'd been stung for a minute there.
36:13Sorry, I had to put some lucky up here for more.
36:17Did you have any trouble paying that debt?
36:19He wasn't happy at losing his employee of the month, but he didn't get nasty or nothing.
36:25Good.
36:28New start.
36:30It's lost property, but it'll do.
36:34You've got to look your best, haven't you?
36:37Now, shoes.
36:44Ew.
36:45What are you doing?
36:46Best be on the safe side.
36:49There's a wash bag here.
36:53Changing rooms are open.
37:00Why are you being so nice to me?
37:05Most people are.
37:07When you give them half a chance.
37:12I won't be making a habit of it, you know.
37:14Elena.
37:21Ah, come to witness a historic Conservative victory?
37:27No time for frivolities, I'm afraid.
37:30Karen's causing a few more waves than expected, so keep the lines of communication open.
37:35How about...
37:36Drugs.
37:40Oh, go on.
37:42I'm interested.
37:44Chris Meade found some on a Year 10 girl this morning.
37:47Have the police been informed?
37:49Not that I know of.
37:50Why don't you think they should?
37:51Well, uh...
37:52Would you mind doing the honours?
37:53Can't keep Her Majesty waiting.
37:55But...
37:55The police.
38:00Isn't that going a bit far?
38:01Well, now we have the information, we have to act on it.
38:04I thought we were going after Karen Fisher.
38:06Elena.
38:08You can't back out now.
38:09I told you, we can't come straight in.
38:19It's all right, Janice.
38:20I'll take it from here.
38:26Richard.
38:27How can I help you?
38:29I just had an interesting call from your Chair of Governors.
38:32What have you been saying?
38:34He has a right to know the truth.
38:35And I have his backing.
38:39If you really think they're going to believe your lies,
38:41you're more deluded than I thought.
38:43We both know this isn't about Waterloo Road.
38:47This is about a problem you have with me.
38:49That's just semantics.
38:51You need to face facts, Karen.
38:52You're a failure.
38:54This school is a failure.
38:56And it will be closed.
38:59I have two weeks to appeal this notice.
39:04And I will.
39:05Don't embarrass yourself.
39:06You appeal this notice and the gloves are well and truly off.
39:10If you want to fight, Richard, I'm ready.
39:16Resign.
39:18I beg your pardon?
39:20Resign today.
39:21I'm giving you a way out.
39:24This school needs me to protect it from you.
39:33Now get out.
39:35I'm busy.
39:36I've been looking for you.
39:48Wow.
39:49You look like a...
39:50What?
39:52A girl.
39:54Don't.
39:54You look alright.
39:56Come on.
39:57What?
39:58Come on.
39:58Wait for it.
40:03What's the story of Mr. Mead anyway?
40:05It seems alright.
40:06Better than summer, suppose.
40:08He's still a teacher.
40:09Hmm.
40:10Ready?
40:10Oh my god.
40:14It's...
40:15Mint?
40:16Yeah.
40:18Why'd you do it?
40:19Mr. Scotch helped me.
40:21You've got your own thing going on.
40:25You're off your head.
40:27I get first crack.
40:28Look.
40:35I've been thinking.
40:41Do you know what, Aidan?
40:43You're right.
40:45I should be treating you like an adult.
40:48Hallelujah.
40:49So, if you want to leave, leave.
40:52You're okay with that.
40:54It's your decision.
40:54Where would we go?
40:59We wouldn't go anywhere.
41:01I'm staying.
41:03Let me know.
41:07Wait.
41:10I was just saying...
41:12Saying that about leaving.
41:14Hmm.
41:15Because I was mad at myself for messing up.
41:22Like father, like son.
41:25Hardly.
41:28You were a mistake, you know.
41:30Well, me and your mum, we weren't that steady and...
41:33Never saw her past the weekend, me.
41:37But, uh...
41:38As soon as I found out she was pregnant,
41:42first thing I did was talk to her.
41:46Why didn't you tell me before?
41:49Can't see it makes any difference.
41:50But I promised her I'd always be there.
41:55And I've been true to my word.
41:59Hey, look, I can't criticise you for what's happened.
42:01If I hadn't have done the same, I wouldn't have the most precious thing in my life.
42:10I don't want to go, Dad.
42:11Good.
42:13Now, uh, Jess and Vicky are good girls.
42:16And you're going to have to step up.
42:19I thought you weren't going to tell me what to do anymore.
42:21Old habits die hard.
42:22Besides, I've got my own life to be getting on with.
42:28Oh, yeah.
42:31Time to move on.
42:32Good afternoon, everybody.
42:39And a very big thank you to everyone who's been involved in today's elections.
42:45Now, the votes are in.
42:47So, without further ado,
42:49I'm going to pass you over to Waterloo Road's returning officer.
42:56Returning officer.
42:58It's fitting that.
42:59Because I did used to be a pupil at the school,
43:01and now I'm back as a sort of teacher.
43:07Get on with it.
43:10So, the number of votes that have been cast in the constituent set of Waterloo Road are as follows.
43:18Liberal Democrat, 97.
43:24The Green Party, 113.
43:28Yes!
43:29Conservative, 138.
43:39And Labour is...
43:43138.
43:46It's a draft.
43:47I demand a recount.
43:48Is there no end to the misery?
43:50Well, there is an alternative.
43:57A coalition?
43:58A coalition?
43:58Have you seen George Allen?
44:12Have you seen George Allen?
44:26Er, try the cooler.
44:32Go on.
44:33We're gonna be out of pocket.
44:34We're gonna be out of pocket.
44:35This is Fisher.
44:36Yes.
44:37The police.
44:38Karen Fisher?
44:39Oi!
44:40You're meant to be working.
44:41Come on.
44:42I've got to go.
44:43I'll keep your seat warm.
44:49I've got to go.
44:50I'll keep your seat warm.
44:51Orange juice for the mums.
44:53Are you ready to work those magic fingers?
44:54Feel attention already.
44:55Yeah, if you want.
44:56Look, next time you wanna make someone jealous, don't use me.
44:57Oh, fuck!
44:58No!
44:59What?
45:00Oh, shit.
45:01Come on, I'm done.
45:02You've got to be...
45:04What?
45:05I'll try to get some.
45:06You, I'll try to get some.
45:08Don't be, I need no.
45:09Oh, fuck!
45:10You're doing it.
45:11No, if you want.
45:12It's okay.
45:13Yeah, who are?
45:15Not even.
45:16I've got to get some more.
45:17I want to try to get some more.
45:18You can't get some more.
45:19What?
45:20I have to get some more.
45:21You, come on.
45:22What?
45:24What?
45:25It's okay.
45:26It's just, you can't get your back.
45:27Chris?
45:32Yeah?
45:33Police have just received a tip-off
45:35that there are drivers in the school
45:37they want to serve to premises.
45:39Okay.
45:40Okay?
45:45Are those drugs still locked in the staff room?
45:48Yeah.
45:49We might have some explaining to do.
45:51Okay, if I can have your attention, everybody, please.
45:54The police are here on a routine inspection
45:57so we can have your full cooperation.
46:01Thank you very much.
46:02You did find them, didn't you?
46:04Just... Chris?
46:09You've got some on you, haven't you?
46:12You were threatening me.
46:13You told me I had to look after him.
46:15Come here.
46:23Chris?
46:24This is Chris Meade, our deputy head.
46:32I'll show you around.
46:38The dog has indicated.
46:39So, can you empty your pockets, please, sir?
46:42There must be some mistakes.
46:44This is one of our teachers.
46:46Sir.
46:47Sorry.
46:48Did you hear what I said?
46:49This is my deputy head.
46:50Sir.
46:50Sir.
46:54What the hell have you done?
47:11Nothing.
47:12It's not mine.
47:14It's Jodie Allen's.
47:15Why didn't you tell me we've got a pupil using drugs?
47:18She's not using it.
47:19She's couriering them for money.
47:20Unbelievable.
47:21Have you told them?
47:22No.
47:23And I'm not going to.
47:24As far as they're concerned, I found them.
47:26Sir?
47:26Can we sort this out of my office?
47:31Has to be at the station.
47:33Because I'm in a caution.
47:34I'll explain later.
47:38Right.
47:40Show's over.
47:42Everything okay?
47:44Yeah, it's great.
47:45My deputy's just been arrested for drugs.
47:48Couldn't be better.
47:48Somebody must have tipped off the police.
47:58Do you think?
47:59Yeah.
48:00I mean, they say it's routine.
48:01It never is.
48:03Poor Chris.
48:04It's the last thing the school needed today.
48:09At least the election was a success.
48:11Yeah, well, that won't mean a thing if we get shut down.
48:14Do you really think it'll come to that?
48:16Yeah, well, who knows?
48:17Warning notice.
48:19Serious stuff.
48:21I know you haven't been here long, but...
48:24I can't tell you what this place means to me.
48:27Pupils.
48:28Everyone.
48:30I'm just worried, that's all.
48:32Come on, let's get to the pub.
48:34I'll buy you a drink, you bloody Tory.
48:48Oh, leave that.
48:54The mess will still be here tomorrow.
48:56You can say that again.
48:59Seriously?
49:00I'll do it.
49:00You get yourself home.
49:01Well, I can't.
49:03I've given Jess and Vicky some space to talk things through.
49:05I'll do it.
49:06I'll do it.
49:06I'll do it.
49:07I'll do it.
49:08Yeah.
49:08There's a lot for us to think about.
49:13Aidan's going to stay.
49:15That's okay with you.
49:16As long as he knows what's expected of him.
49:21He does.
49:23He really does.
49:25Good.
49:27Look, thanks, Karen.
49:30A few months' time, we could be grandparents.
49:36I may as well just swap knitting patterns with Janice's mother now.
49:42I just don't want things to be difficult between us.
49:44Oh, me neither.
49:47We're going to be part of each other's lives, whether we like it or not.
49:50I'll be happy with that.
49:52Share the pain.
49:56I am sorry that it got out of control with Naomi.
50:00Mostly forgotten.
50:05I hope so.
50:13So, are you going to stick around?
50:16Wreck him.
50:17What about you?
50:21You going to keep it?
50:24Yeah.
50:28I don't care what people think.
50:30You still like him, don't you?
50:34Aidan.
50:37After what he did...
50:39I always imagine I'd be sharing all this with Ronan.
50:45Well, there's nothing stopping you.
50:48Yeah, right.
50:48I was dealing with the situation.
50:52By harbouring drugs for a pupil?
50:54She needed my help.
50:56I can't believe you're trying to justify this.
50:58Scout was in serious trouble.
51:00She owed someone money.
51:01Not our problem.
51:03Chris, you are the deputy head.
51:05Yes, I know that.
51:06But I am also the one person that that girl felt that she could turn to.
51:10Stop shouting.
51:11Then perhaps you're the one who can tell her that she's expelled.
51:17No, no, no.
51:18You can't expel her.
51:19Yes, I can.
51:20It's not her fault.
51:22The only reason that she's mixed up in all this is to put food on the table.
51:25And I feel sympathy for her.
51:27But I can't condone this.
51:31Have you forgotten what this school stands for, Karen?
51:33I mean, forget warning notices and management breakdowns.
51:37Our priority has always been our pupils.
51:41Pupils like Jodie Allen.
51:50This is her last chance.
51:54I'll suspend her for a week.
51:59And I'm suspending you as well.
52:03They didn't charge me.
52:05You were lucky.
52:06This is for the good of the school, Chris.
52:12Thanks for your loyalty, Karen.
52:20So when you're near me, darling
52:22Can't you hear me, S.O.S
52:25Oh, hair of the dog, I think.
52:31Mr. Meats been suspended.
52:33What?
52:34I'm sure this lot will fill you in on all the gory details.
52:37None of my business.
52:39I was just going to ask you what you're having.
52:41I think you'll find I've minimised my carbon footprint, and I have done a full ecological survey of the school.
52:56I will present my recommendations to our esteemed leader on the morrow.
53:00It's a tennery, do you think?
53:02Oh, well, it looks like it's your round, Mr. Budgin, and I'll have...
53:06Er, sex on the beach, please.
53:09Er, you're a good man, Grantley Budgin.
53:12Er, Chris.
53:14No, no, you're all right, I'm going to get going.
53:16I'm not in the mood.
53:17Oh, come on, mate.
53:18You'll be back before you know it.
53:19I shouldn't have even got to this in the first place.
53:21Since when is it a crime to help one of our own kids?
53:24Well, you did more than help her out.
53:26To be fair, you did jump in with both feet, mate.
53:28Sometimes that's the only way.
53:30No, look, I hear what you're saying.
53:31I've done it myself in the past, but...
53:34At the end of the day, we're only teachers.
53:36There's only so much we can do.
53:38Saison.
53:40Oh, my God, that's good.
53:47What?
53:48Well, I don't get out much anymore?
53:57Haven't you done enough already today?
53:59Mrs. Fish is suspended, then.
54:05Hey.
54:07You know the best advice my dad ever gave me?
54:11Hmm.
54:12You never trust a Tory.
54:13My mother always said,
54:15socialism is a road to serfdom.
54:18Hmm.
54:19Yeah, but my dad knew what he was talking about.
54:21Hmm.
54:22You do know where you are, don't you?
54:23Not on your planet.
54:25No.
54:25Broxdale.
54:27Home of the cooperative movement.
54:291844.
54:31The Roxdale principles.
54:33And my dad lived by those principles.
54:35I wouldn't expect you to understand.
54:37Oh, don't give me that working class chip on your shoulder.
54:40I'm from Fallenge.
54:44I'm from the same side of the road.
54:46What were you thinking?
55:05Three hours I was in that police station.
55:06I have never been so humiliated.
55:09You didn't have to.
55:11Could have told him the drugs were mine.
55:12And what would that have achieved?
55:15You'd be in a load more trouble than for what?
55:16I'm sorry, Scout.
55:23It's been a long day.
55:25I did try and tell Darren I won't work for him anymore.
55:31But it's not that easy.
55:35He got some lads to threaten me.
55:37The ones who smashed my bike up.
55:40And I don't know what else he'd do if I stop delivering stuff.
55:45Hey, here.
55:47Come on.
55:49I want to help you, but I can only do that if you're honest with me.
55:54Mrs. Fisher wanted to expel you.
56:00But I talked her out of it.
56:01And I only did that because I think you're worth something.
56:04So from now on, I need to know.
56:08If something goes wrong, you tell someone.
56:09You don't try and deal with it yourself.
56:12I promise.
56:15And I'm sorry you got suspended.
56:17I'll talk to Mrs. Fisher if you want.
56:20Explain.
56:20Don't you worry about me.
56:22I could deal with some times, I think.
56:32That's okay.
56:35You sound, you know.
56:37Best seat driver I've ever had.
56:39From now on, it's just school and paper on.
56:44Which one do you read?
56:45I'll make a detour.
56:47Do you really think I'd give you my address?
56:50No.
56:51Good point.
56:54Beer, or beer?
57:02I want a drink.
57:05Now, you sure that you've got enough to get by for a few days?
57:24Good.
57:25I'll see you next week.
57:27Thanks, sir.
57:30Hey.
57:31Stay out of trouble.
57:34Scout's on her.
57:34It's only a matter of time before Karen finds out that I've been helping you.
57:43She won't.
57:44Unless you say something.
57:46Maybe I will.
57:47You need to go and see a doctor.
57:49This isn't right.
57:50Big.
57:52What's my baby?
57:53You're telling me that your mum has left your three-year-old brother in the flat on his
57:58own?
57:58He must still get out, sir.
57:59All right, have it.
58:00We've got to find him.
58:00He's only three.
58:01Liam!
58:03Liam!
58:05Stay there!
58:06Stay there!
58:06Don't move!
58:07Don't move!
58:07You're a bully, Eleanor.
58:09Why don't you do us all a favour and shut off back to school?
58:11I know I need to change.
58:12I want to change.
58:14I had one of your staff approach me.
58:16A grievance about the way you've been running this place.
58:20This member of staff wouldn't happen to be Eleanor Chowdhury, would it?
58:33One family with a whole heap of problems.
58:36New comedy in with the Flins coming right up.
58:38And then at nine we're doing business abroad when The Apprentice goes to France.
58:43Ah, may we.
