That's the third one this week. Tom, not
in the kitchen.

Dead bird's on the doorstep. That's how
theory will kill us to start.

We don't know it till... Well, we will
do soon.

So we get him on camera, and then what?

Then it's not our problem anymore.

Right. Ready to go, babe?

Can you give me a minute?

Just say goodbye.

Bye.

Are you sure you don't want to stay here
till you find somewhere to buy?

Er, we've arranged to pick up the keys
at lunch.

Well, I hope you're renting cheap. It's
hard enough for me to get a mortgage

these days.

Yeah, of course.

I'm sorry.

You're free of us now, Tom?

I'm going to miss you.

And you, soft lad.

I'm very happy for you, aren't we, love?

Yeah.

Right, well, Shipley Heights, here we
come, eh?

Dinner at six, let's see.

It's been a mile, hasn't it?

I don't think so, do you?

I don't think so.

Why are these on the air?

I'll tell you what, I'm going to swing
for him one of these days to cheat a

little dick.

Brantley?

Brantley? Hmm?

Oh, for the love of God, give her a
call.

But most certainly will not.

If that woman wants to ring me with an
apology, then fine. Well, you're going

have to find somewhere else to stay,
aren't you?

Because you're only supposed to be
crashing at mine for a couple of nights

the old flaming week.

The dissolution of my marriage was not,
as I recall, a solo endeavour. Yes, and

I've tried to explain to Fleur that it
was all a misunderstanding, but you

staying with me is hardly making things
better, is it?

Anyway, I've got enough to worry about
with Maxine without you moping about.

Come on, get out.

Oi!

3 minutes.

Here you go, long spell.

Yeah, you got it.

Won't touch that for you, love. Goodbye.

A fulcrum demonstration.

You asked me to look after the Earl
situation.

Is it one of Mel's ideas?

No, it's mine.

We don't know if this has got anything
to do with Earl or any of our students.

Tom seems convinced.

Yeah, well, Tom's been saying a lot of
things.

The entire lesson, well, it looks like
you're saying Earl's guilty.

It's not all about him.

There are other kids who'll benefit
loads from an experience like this.

Besides, this bloke can teach wild
animals to do what he tells them to.

I think our kids are going to need a
little bit more than bird seed.

So do falcons.

It takes a lot of patience to earn their
trust.

It'd be a good lesson in discipline,
responsibility.

You haven't exactly left me a lot of
choice, have you?

Rachel, you asked me to handle this, and
I'm handling it. If you don't like what

I'm doing... OK, all right, you're
right. It's your call.

But remember, my name is on that risk
assessment.

Go run that clockwork.

One second with you, Doc. Arms up. At
you.

People in staff are the same.

Yes, well, I was running late this
morning.

Oh.

Oh.

How many times? There is nothing going
on.

If you must know, I told a stupid lie
because I didn't want to go out with

And if you'd kept your flaming mouth
shut, we wouldn't be in this mess in the

first place. I'll have to take these,
I'm afraid.

Deadly weapons in the wrong hands.

Very funny. Come on.

This is revenge, is it?

Excuse me?

Fine. You win.

Well, if it puts a stop to all this
nonsense, I will let you take me out

But I'm not cheap.

Now give.

That ship has sailed.

You're not the woman of principle I
thought you were. So the ladies are

a pack to your door, are they?

An offer like that doesn't stay on the
shelf very long.

What, you got somebody else?

Right.

Well, she's not having my hair sprayed.

As you were.

Right, one at a time, please. One at a
time.

Oi! As you were.

Do it, Kelly.

Surprise, surprise.

Sorry I'm late, sir.

That's the third time this week. What's
today's excuse?

I had a little bit of trouble dropping
Prince off in a crash.

That the latest euphemism for sorry I
slept in, sir?

Right, as you know, our beloved head boy
is currently taking part in a foreign

exchange programme.

Doubtless two months of taxpayers' money
learning how to build sandcastles, but

apparently you cannot live without a
replacement in the meantime.

Nominees have been putting themselves
forward all week. I did a good thing,

you might not see it that way.

And the finalists are Matthew Older,
Simon Hoskins, Andrew Ibbotson and

Marlee Kelly.

Candidates will be making their speeches
to the year groups this afternoon.

Right, you lot. Lessons are cancelled.

Thought I'd change the pecking order for
today. So, I'm drafted in.

The flying squad.

Right, Steve.

All right.

Come on.

Falconry.

Oldest sport in the world.

Anyone done it before?

My grandad's got a kez on video.

Well, it's a start.

It's not a sport.

No? Javelin, discus, shot put, all
originated from hunting.

You versus your opponent in a race to
catch the prey.

Only difference is the weapon you use.

Now, I suppose some of you like to think
you're top of the food chain, eh?

Well, these birds are the real deal.

Highly skilled predators who hunt
smaller animals for survival.

Anyone hungry?

Young man?

Is this the wine, though?

Eh?

You think of what those birds in town
does, that's just like everyone else,

don't you? It's got nothing to do with
that.

Either way, you're trying to make a fool
of me.

Bringing birds to a bird killer.

Still getting mysterious gifts at your
door.

They'll be obviously dead in my bed
next.

Council said I have to get it on camera.
One more strike and they're out.

Oh, Eddie and Rachel will be pleased.

Take more than a little birdie show to
get through to that lad.

I'll give it till the end of the day
before the little hooligan bites its

off and spits it back in Eddie's face.

Yeah, more like lunchtime.

A small wager, is it? Shall we say 50
pounds?

Oh, you're good for it this time, are
you?

Of course.

How about we say the loser has to do the
other one's marking for a month?

They'll be regathered by lunch.

Hey, determine what you think of it.
It's easier for everyone's benefit.

Do me a favour.

You might as well paint guilty on my
forehead.

Do you honestly think I'm crazy enough
to be hurting those little animals like

Thompson? No, I don't. So what's all
this for, then? To make a point. Show

you're not what they say.

Look, Earl.

I'm one of the few people fighting in
your corner right now. I went to a lot

trouble organising this.

You want to just throw it back in me
face?

Fine. Jack it in.

Prove you've got something to hide.

Ah, reverse psychology.

All right. You want honesty.

How about this?

You fail, I fail.

Better.

Don't expect me to enjoy it.

Heads down and planning as normal, I'm
afraid, guys.

Some of us just aren't doing badly
enough to get our own aim and display.

Fancy volunteering ill to be head boy as
well.

That's going to go on all day.

You should have asked.

You've hardly been around.

Anyway, I've got to spend most of my
free time with whoever wins this thing.

I don't much like the other lads on
offer.

It's not two euro, is it?

No. I only put your name forward.

People have to vote for you to be in the
final.

Settle down.

Thought I'd rigged it, right?

Believe it or not, your year group
actually likes you.

People like him better.

Who? Simon Hopkins?

He's a cardboard cutter.

You've got edge.

What? I've already interviewed the other
ones. A psycho bird killer.

Yeah?

Look, Flick, I'd love to do it, but I've
got my family to look after. That's

your mum's job?

Yes. You know what she's like. Oh, your
mum's a drunk and your response is no

longer. Pour me, pour me, pour me
another drink.

Two thirds?

Maybe you should just not bother.

Take it easy like the rest of your
stupid family.

Settle down.

Look at it.

Look at it.

Close. Where's all the stuff gone?

That was for show flat.

You don't actually get the stuff that's
in it.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, of course.

How much bigger than I remember?

Are you sure we can afford it?

Oh, please.

You're going to have 75 grand coming in
off Tom.

That's not even taking into account what
we're bringing in from close cuts of my

DVDs.

All right?

We're going to make three times the rent
on this guy.

Oui, I can have loads left over.

No, that's not dead stuff, is it?

Morning. I'm ringing about the one
-bedroom flat on Shipley Heights.

Yes, the paper quotes £350 a week.

That's obviously some kind of a typo.

That's per calendar month, yes?

Week. For a one -bedroom flat you want
locking up.

Poor Grant and me.

This barrier cop's killing them.

Killing me, more like.

Racing on 24 -7, empty wine rack.

Have you tried getting them back
together?

They won't even talk to each other.

Some rubbish about the principle of the
thing.

Well, maybe they need to move on and
meet other people.

Oh, not that again.

It's a valid community initiative,
Steph.

Once a month we'll get all the single
parents together and we can have

as well.

What, you think I'm begging?

No, but someone is.

Yes, begging for Fleur.

So let's show him who else is out there.
Get him off your plate.

And is Rachel approved of this?

Well, no, but I mean, if we get enough
takers, then... Right.

Leave it to me.

A few more flyers, free booze, we'll
laugh him.

Now.

You make sure Cupid brings his bow. I'll
bring. Bye.

A bird of prey will try and train you,
give and have a chance.

Reckoning men can take months, or even
years.

Bit like this talk, then.

Boring you, am I?

Yeah. I don't see anything impressive
about showing off some tied -up bird to

bunch of kids who have no choice to be
here, either.

You all know who we're here for.

Michaela. There's no captives here.

They're free to go at any moment, just
like you are.

It's true.

The only means I've got of keeping track
of this fella is this little device

here.

But ultimately, there's no guarantee
that he'll come back, any more than

any guarantee that you'll turn up at
school tomorrow.

I've just got to hope that I've built up
enough trust, coupled with a little bit

of bribery.

To show him I can offer him an easier
life here than he'd have out in the

This is a lure.

A little toy to simulate the hunt.

Now if I can get you to form a line down
here, we'll see if Kev's over there

fancies a game of catch.

Why don't you get his attention?

How much time have I got yours?

Not like you to be vandalising a school
property, Mr Kelly.

I'm just taking my name off this old boy
thing here.

Oh. I don't want my idea, really.

Flip kind of did it without asking.

Yeah, I know she has told him, actually.

She obviously feels quite strongly that
you should be in the running. You know

they've been voting for you all week.

It's fine. I'm not really going to be
responsible for it anyway.

Well, you seem quite responsible for
your family.

Yeah?

Yeah.

You should try telling that to my mum.

Well, it looks like some of you are
still having problems with the

And some of you just have other things
on your mind.

Both of you.

Bolton! Sorry, miss.

Found you had any particular problems
with your essay?

Nah.

No?

If you spent less time floating like a
butterfly, I wouldn't have to sting you

with a D.

Muhammad Ali.

Well, you're obviously not so close up
about your boxing history, either.

You're right about me feeling anyway.

Cleaver's going to make me world
champion.

Right, so why don't we just concentrate
on Dickens' great expectations for the

meantime, yeah?

Oh, I'd love to, mate, but I've got to
get my hair in it.

Sorry? I've got a visitor at the boxing
gym. Cleaver wants me to go.

No chance.

You're going to be staying put till the
end.

No way. Can't make me.

Bolton!

Sit down!

Sit down!

No. I've got to go, innit?

The only place you're going to be going
to is the cooler.

Melissa got to you as well, then, has
she?

Stop the nonsense.

Oh, come on.

Might be a laugh.

For your game?

Is that all my break of this to you?

Of course it isn't, Grantley. But you're
going to have to jump back on the

dating bandwagon sooner or later.

It didn't take Fleur long.

I don't want to know.

Look, I felt responsible, you know, for
breaking you two up. So I invited Fleur

to this.

Jumped at the chance.

Nearly bit me hand off.

You snooze, you lose, Grantley.

Who wants to be the first to hold the
peregrine falcon?

Me.

What a surprise.

How about you then, Michaela?

Put your glove on then.

Just let him step up onto you.

Of course, in the old days, they were
all about different birds for different

status.

I know which one I'm having then.

Parasauce? Vienna?

Not likely, son. Not unless you want a
nasty peck on the cheek.

What, so I don't even get a go?

You can have a go on the Peregrine
Falcon.

I want to hold this one.

Nah. Trust me, son.

She's a fiery one.

Not a big fan of us humans.

That makes two of us.

That stoner didn't look after her
properly.

Mother abandoned her.

You don't like me, eh?

Go on, can I hold her?

Please.

I'm sorry, son.

I can't take the risk.

She might take a bite out of you.

Earl, he doesn't want you touching his
birds. Get over it.

He's heard about your reputation.

Same as the rest of us.

Michaela, another one like that and it's
the cooler.

Who's done what now?

Oh, no.

Everything's fine.

I just thought that, well, you could
come in and we could have a little catch

up. Oh, yeah?

Phone's not working?

Um, Marley has pulled out of running for
head boy this afternoon.

I've tried talking with him, but he...
Well, I just thought that maybe you

have a word.

You called me all the way down here like
someone died for that.

It's a really good opportunity for his
CV.

He's fine as he is.

No, he's not actually, Rose.

Do you know how many lessons he's
dropped out of just this last week?

We do what we can, but if they're not
getting the help they need from home...

I'm there for them 24 hours a day.

Really? Okay, is that why Marley gets
left to look after the kids?

Has he been saying that?

No, but he doesn't need to.

He's throwing his life away while you're
looking for yours in a bottle.

I beg your pardon?

Come on, Rose.

I can get you help. There's lots of
really good AA groups.

You can't expect your kids to achieve
anything if you're just sitting around

drinking all day.

And who made you the bloody judge and
jury?

You know what? I have not got a perfect
path myself.

Yeah?

I heard all about that, Madame Mason.

Yeah. I moved on. I got a job.

So, I'm an alcoholic who's not there for
a kid and you're telling me to get a

job? Listen, you've got the social
services on your back and you've just

in the adult literacy course. You need
to work, Rose, to prove to them that you

mean business.

Have you got kids?

Yeah, I've got 600 of them. None of your
own, though.

That is my job, yeah.

I could have walked away like all their
dads, but I'm up to my eyes in debt

raising the best I can.

You're going to deny me the odd drink
for that?

Hi.

Hi. Leave a message.

Fleur, it's Steph.

Listen, I know I'm not exactly your
favourite person at the minute.

It's just I thought you might like to
know what Grunty is doing tonight.

So can you call me back?

I've got to put him in the car. Yeah,
and I took him out. We've got training

do, so... What are you doing?

You can't go walking over everyone else.
You should be boxing, Fleur.

Stupid boxing.

That is the best future he's got.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.

He should be exercising his mind.

Not his fifth.

Now he's being ridiculous.

Bolton's mine.

I'm study, you know. And he won't have
one left after you're finished punching

it out of him.

This is genuine talent here.

Do you want him to throw that away?

No. I want him to have the choice.

So can I. Bolton, shut up.

Do you know what? Let's go and see Miss
Nathan. See what she's got to say about

this.

You know what? I'm going to make sure
that he goes to every class from now on.

Who, right?

I've just got to make sure that he works
this evening, OK?

Oh, what a shame. If you hadn't made him
skip the cooler, I wouldn't have had to

put him in detention tonight.

You've got to catch him first, haven't
you?

He's scared!

Ah! Ah!

Ah! Dippy feet!

Get off me!

Psycho! Go on, bird!

Quiet! Oh, he doesn't like you either,
Earl.

Take your birds up your arse.

Looks like he's special needs to spit
his dummy.

tell a mason I'm a drunk?

No, why would I do that? Someone has.

She's been accusing me of all sorts.

Well, it weren't me.

Then find out who it was and set him
straight.

Because he made me look a right pillock.

That's fine. I'll take care of you.
Yeah, you better.

I've got it. Mum, I've got it. Come
here. Mum, I said I've got it. Hey, he's

kid. You think I can't manage?

No, actually, no. I don't think you can.

You know the reason you're so angry,
Mum?

It's because you are a washed up old
drunk.

Everybody knows it.

So why don't you just get off home now
with your comfort blanket and leave me

cover for you?

Because that's what I've been using
since I was ten, so why change now, eh?

I want to decorate it all pink.

All pink?

Perfect, that one there.

Can I pay for that over the phone?

Same day delivery as well.

The number is 6790... 56...

Hey, hey. I'll pay you over the phone,
yeah?

Where's the cash?

Mr. Dante Charles?

Mr. Dante Charles.

Dante Charles here.

10 % off.

20%. Oh, check that out. 42 -inch scope.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's the cotton balls and DVDs, you
know?

The business clothes.

Gotta start making money.

Five of them?

Brilliant. Nice one.

It would go perfect right there.

That is wicked.

Wicked. Don't say it.

Oh, don't say it.

Hard day or what?

What?

If

I'm

such an alky, who's going to give me a
job?

I am.

In the school canteen.

Uh -uh. No way.

Candice, please. She needs this. Yeah,
and I need it like all my head.

Look, it's a trial.

Just a trial. She messes up and she's
out.

What is this? A drop -in centre, eh?

That woman and her sweat trouble. I can
smell it.

Oh, and yours were always little angels,
were they?

Uh -huh.

Look, it's different pay scale for
supervisors.

I'm sure you could do with the extra
help.

Right. 60 quid a week extra.

And I do the ironing and firing from now
on. And she messes up and she's out.

Here we are.

I suppose I've got no choice, have I?

Neither of us do, love.

Here you are, girls. One each for you.

Take them home with you.

What are you giving us the kids for?
It's adults only, Steph.

Yeah, but who's going to tell them?

Just try and be a little bit discreet
about it. Wait till you find out.

Well, of course you know me.

Discretion is my middle name.

Stop. Now, your mum's been on her own a
long time, hasn't she?

You haven't to come along.

There's a dad out there somewhere
waiting for you.

You have to get her off a flat half an
hour after, isn't it? She's all right.

That's my mum.

There you are, you two.

Right, rubber gloves always got to be
worn whenever you're handling the food,

all right?

Right, now this area is the bacon area,
as you can see.

You've got that there, you've got
weights, trays here. If you need

else, you can come to me.

Now this, actually... I've had a thought
for a class on weekends, if anyone

wants to take it any further.

Oh, yeah.

I'll see how it goes this afternoon.

I'll give that elk another try, if you
like.

Mind you, there was more than just a
pie. Oh, yes, several. I don't like to

think of anyone as a lost cause. No.

I can't believe it.

Well, did anyone say anything?

For how long have you been here?

Did you lock it? Yeah.

I can't believe this. Are you sure no
one saw anything?

Come one, come all.

Single parents required tonight.

Three glasses of rosé, three loaves if
they're lucky. Excuse me.

What is going on here? I thought I said
no to this.

It's for the community.

Yes. Not for the kids, thank you. The
mother's got a little bit carried away

the moment.

Steph, this is setting completely the
wrong tone for this school. Oh, come on,

Rachel, lighten up.

The only time the parents get within 20
feet of this place is when the kids are

on the skin.

Well, haven't they had a bit of fun?

Excuse me, I will tell you what... Can
you just give me a second? No, please.

We've got a problem.

One of the orcs is missing.

They've got trackers on. It's one of the
kids trying to release her. We should

be able to get her back.

Well, they can't have got far.

Well, it's not how far they've got you
want to worry about, is it?

Well, didn't they tell you, mate, you've
been out teaching a bird killer?

Earl Kelly's been murdering birds and
leaving them on my doorstep.

And you had them out there with my birds
and you didn't even think to tell me?

We're not sure about this, Steve.

You lied to me. No.

Look, have we even looked for Earl yet?
Because all we've got at the moment is a

missing bird.

What? I told Mr Clark then I saw Earl
lurking by the van.

Sienna's my prize, look. You better be
praying she's okay or else I'll report

you and you'll all be up on charges.

Hang on, no police, no hysterics, not
yet.

Too late.

You should have excluded him when you
had the chance. It's not that simple,

Why don't we just wait till we find
either the bird or Earl? There's no need

panic. He's probably on my doorstep by
now. Right, I'm off. I'll come with you.

Hang on, Eddie. Rachel, I'm going with
him.

You drive, I'll get the truck. Right.

This isn't a mile or two.

Paul?

Earl Kelly's only gone and killed one of
them birds, hasn't he? Who's texted you

that crap?

Ruth Jones showed it off to Michaela.
Happened at dinner.

Told you he was an old glut. Shut up.

The guy's a muppet, man. Let's face it.

Hey, I'd spell psycho, sir. Is it E -A
-R -L?

More like... E -X -P -E -double -L -E
-G.

What are you going to put in your speech
now, then, Marla?

Won't meet with me brother.

That's disgusting, that.

Murdering a little animal. Shut up,
Jimmy. It's got nothing to do with

It's his brother, innit?

No, you don't even know what's going on.

Sophia, the whole family's trouble. The
only thing that's obvious is your own

stupid prejudice.

How do you expect anyone to get better
if you're always expecting the worst?

Yeah, all right.

Settle down.

Marla? Sit down, Miss Mella.

Not so smart now, are you?

Who's in control now?

Marley!

What now?

Nothing.

Just thought you might like to know Miss
Mason's given me a job.

What?

Gonna clean up the school kitchens and
myself while I'm at it.

That'll it take.

It's a start.

Hey, I heard you pulled out of that head
boy thing.

I don't want you throwing your life away
for me, Marley.

Ladies and gentlemen, thanks for coming.

We're looking forward to some great
speeches this afternoon. So without

ado, let's welcome our first candidate,
Marley Kelly.

Pretty much on top of it.

It'll be just down here.

Oh. What?

It's just on the street.

Really?

Take him... Oh!

Oh! He could be anywhere now.

I've left the short. When I find him...
He's not going to bring me out back,

though, is he? Look.

He couldn't have gone far.

We sent him this plane and didn't pass
it, so he must have carried on down

there. Come on.

Come on, Matt.

Thank you, Matthew.

And next up, we've got Simon Hopkins.

Good. Good. You're looking for security
and leadership from your head boy.

I like to think I'm up to the job.

I want better sports facilities and more
flexibility in studies before the

year's out.

I promise to be reliable.

There's no dodgy skeletons or brothers
in my closet waiting to come out, I can

assure you.

Are you finished?

It's my turn now.

What's that?

Looks like a head.

Right.

Pick up the phone.

You all had a good laugh at me little
brother then.

I suppose it is funny when it's not you.

Look, I wasn't even sure I was going to
do this speech.

But then I thought, I don't know what
else have I got to lose, eh?

Hey, I'm... You know, when someone's got
a reputation, people always think the

worst.

But people can surprise you, can't they?

I just wouldn't be trusting him like
that.

Look, you know what you lot need?

You need someone that's going to look
for the best in themselves and look for

the best in the others around them and
look for the best in the school rather

than just... rather than just...

Taking the easy option and picking on
the obvious.

Now, this morning I wasn't even sure I
wanted to be head boy.

But now...

Now I know I do. And I reckon I'm going
to do a good job as well.

Because I've got more to prove.

But you can't let your circumstances
dictate who you are as a person.

And you can't let anyone hold you back.

Whoever they are.

Guess this makes Tom happy.

The old school calling for my blood.

What did you expect?

You thought I killed her, didn't you?

No.

Then why were you running when you first
saw me?

I expected the worst.

Just like the rest of them. Couldn't you
blame me?

You did break into the van and steal
her.

I just wanted to fly her for myself.

You should have asked.

And so should you.

Do you want to know who killed those
birds?

Who? Our cat.

We've just moved house, haven't we?
She's taken him to the wrong one.

Yeah.

Tom didn't ask either.

Nanny did.

Just looked at the evidence and assumed
the worth.

They have to bring the wildlife.

They may cut their own mind to eat the
truss.

I guess, uh, I guess you want to know
some of the policies there now.

Okay, what about vending machines in the
common room?

And better storage facilities.

Yeah, more free period.

And more pride in the Waterloo Road six
form.

And I was... I was, um...

Um... That's my boy.

My heady head, head boy. Go on, Morley.

Go on, my son.

Uh... Sorry, I was saying that, uh...
Carry on.

Carry on.

Just talk amongst yourselves.

Um... If we can invest more in the,
uh... With the right amount of... Mum!

I'm so proud of you, you know that?

I love you, Marley.

You know that, don't you?

That's all.

That's all.

I'm all right. I'm all right.

I've got her. I've got her.

You're proud of me, aren't you, Marley?

Of course.

You are, though, aren't you?

Yeah. Because I am proud of you.

Good evening.

Grantley Budge, an absolute pleasure.

If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd
put you and I together.

How about, I'm no Fred Flintstone, but
I'm at your bed, Barack.

What is with the old school lines,
Budge?

Have you got a day lined up?

Shouldn't you be knocking seven bells
out the bolt? Come on, Grandy, I might

able to help.

I am attending the speed dating this
evening. It seems I am once again to

the field, as it were.

Hey, you seem to be a bit of a hit with
the ladies.

What's your secret?

I'm in the marketplace.

It's changed a bit since you were last
courting. What was it back then? Was it

pistols at dawn?

Now, seriously, I know it's a cliche,
but it's true.

Just be yourself.

That's the problem.

It's only Fleur that's ever been able to
stomach that.

Failing that, same principle as any
sale.

A, B, C.

Always.

B. Be. Always be.

Always be closing.

Complimentary. Always be complimentary.

Always be complimentary.

Steve was telling me about these
falconry classes he runs.

I'm sure he'd like to see you there.

Stuck to you quicker than she did me.

Shame to let that go.

Well, I'll take that as a yes, then.

I'll square it, Mr Clarkson.

No reason why you two shouldn't be happy
neighbours from now on.

You get to him in time?

Got him wrong, Tom. We both did. Yeah,
right.

He didn't kill those birds. It was his
cat.

Right.

You might get to know the lad better if
you talk to him. Talking to him's one

thing. You try living next to him. Tom!
Save it, Eddie.

You're as deaf and dumb as all the rest.

Where do I go? Where do I stay? Where do
I work? Where do I rest? Where do I

play? It feels as though I've been up in
this mid -lock for days. Then I'm

hoping that this bitch got some hay.

Whatever happens to the hip -hop parade?

I'm sorry.

Is everything okay, miss?

No, it's not.

Have you seen Bolton? He's supposed to
be in detention.

I think so.

Mr. Clay is just looking for the boxing
glove.

Which is where?

Do you need to breathe?

It's on Lock Street, but we didn't get
that from me.

Thanks.

Looks like I've made some progress

with him.

Finally.

Seems he's found a real passion for it.

Steve's going to take him to the weekend
classes.

Good.

I'm sorry.

For not listening earlier.

Got caught up in the drama and
overreacted.

Honestly?

I'd kind of given up on myself as well.

Well, I think I made some progress with
Marley and Rose today as well.

Oh, what a team.

Getting the Kellys back on track.

We should go for a drink and celebrate.

I would, but...

I promised your sister I'd help her with
the speed dating.

Eddie, I cannot believe that you're
getting involved in that.

The whole thing should be cancelled.

I know, but it's too late.

What would you prefer?

Her doing it by herself or with a little
bit of supervision from us?

Give her a chance, Rach.

I knew you wouldn't have done nothing
bad.

What makes you think I didn't?

Don't joke.

Everyone else is fagging off, but I
still buy you.

Yeah?

You've been troubling me, haven't you?

Whatever.

I am the only one that knows. You're
just a big, saucy big gal.

Well, tell anyone.

I'll know how to do you.

I might not be such a bad thing.

Don't get all huggy -huggy on me.

Better?

Yeah.

Sir. Look, I wanted to apologise for my
little brother.

No, it's me that should be apologising.
Turns out I got him all wrong.

Yet he told me about your cat leaving
those dead birds on Mr Clarkson's

doorstep.

Right. Is everything OK?

Did you get to do that speech in the
end?

Yeah. Well done. I look forward to the
results.

See you.

See? Not all doom and gloom. Got to be
good news about Earl, right?

Yeah. It would be if it were true.

What?

We got a car.

It's a three to one ratio in my favor.

Hmm? Women of a certain age can't afford
to be fussy.

Why don't you try leading with that one,
Grantley? And all you'll be picking

will be canapes out of you.

I'm speaking of unwelcome surprises.

Show Miss Koresh you're okay to be
skipping detention?

Yes, don't worry about it. It's going to
be fine.

Not exactly state -of -the -art, is it?

Well, you're not seeing Rocky.

You're lucky I haven't got you punching
frozen meat. Right, from now on, this is

going to be your new home, all right,
bruiser?

I'll be collecting your rent in sweats.

Bye!

Until you get the wraps on.

What does that do?

Not a bad turn -up.

Okay, everyone, two minutes of session,
then move on and no stragglers.

Mmm,

what a pretty glance.

Thank you.

My flair had one just like it, but we
took it to the charity shop.

Allergy to cheap synthetics.

It's more a fear of your gnome now,
then.

Took me 12 changes of clothes to get
here tonight.

I was sweating that much.

Well,

I think you look absolutely fine.

And trust me, I am nothing if not
honest.

My grandpa used to call it a blossom,
but the doctor said it was eczema.

That's not the effect.

I'm not the jealous type.

And he gave me a cream that brought me
out in wealth.

No,

it's not, my own, but with due respect,
you're not exactly no previous owner,

she said.

I'm sorry for the interruption, but I'm
going to spare you both the misery and

do a swap.

What? Are you through wasting this
gentleman's time?

Hop in.

Right, you two, stop messing about.

Get on with it.

Come on. Both.

Both. Jab.

Jab. Jab. Jab. Jab.

Jab. Jab. Jab.

What are you doing?

Done, aren't we? About half an hour.
Yeah?

Get back, come on.

Hey.

Why don't you pick on someone your own
size?

Ding dong, round two.

And you better tell me why this is more
important than detention.

Rob said... Miss, this

is the only thing I've ever been good
at.

At best, if you just give me a chance, I
can show you what I can do.

I'll never skip lesson again, I promise.

Please don't take this away from me.

Alright.

Well, show me what other class is about.

Didn't take you long to get over me, did
it?

I only came to watch you in action.

It's not what Steph said.

What are you talking about?

She told me that... We need

to start communicating grouty budging.

Er... Me and you both.

Proper.

Pretty obvious you couldn't manage the
affair, even if you wanted to.

Oh...

Just getting warmed up. Oh, all right,
then. Off you pop.

Sorry I interrupted.

No.

Don't leave me.

Is that us, then?

No, it definitely is not.

I still need to get used to that midlife
mortarboard.

Come here, you big idiot.

You see?

Some people just need to see the nose on
their face.

Does Brantley's missus not mind his
scarlet woman being in a seal?

No.

Does your girlfriend not mind you being
here?

Is that Chanel No. 5?

Oh, don't give me that sensitive man
crap.

No?

Well, I mean... Yes, compared to this
lot in here, you're a flaming cat and

over, but... You see this rough -looking
exterior.

You don't think there's any more to me
than that?

No, I see this rough -looking exterior,
and I hope to God that there isn't.

Dave, I'm sick of men and their
feelings.

There's only room for one emotional
basket case around here, and you're

at us.

Not any chance of me taking over that
drink?

I don't know.

Maybe.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

Wow.

He is good.

Yeah. That's a stupid spot after all,
isn't it? I wouldn't go that far, but

obviously loving it.

In two weeks in the ring with you, I'll
be loving it even more.

You'll be lucky.

Not a complete disaster, then? Not a
complete disaster, but I don't think

make the regular thing of it.

Oh, spread a little love, right?

Just doesn't seem fair, me and Eddie,
keeping it all to ourselves.

Well, do you think that maybe you and
Eddie are... I don't know, going a bit

fast.

What's going to happen next? You're
going to move in together. You've only

each other for five... Eddie?

Come here a minute.

Rachel's got a great idea.

Do you think that you, me and Phil could
live under one roof?

I don't see why not.

Yours or mine. Oh, Rachel,

you've got to come for that drink now.
This is definitely a celebration.

Come on, come on, I'll get our coats.

Rachel, I know what you're thinking.

Do you now?

It must seem crazy, me getting caught up
in all this stuff.

But I'm deadly serious about your
sister.

I just need to know that you're okay
with that before we take it any further.

Of course I am.

Of course I am.

Welcome home, babe.

It's our first night alone.

That dessert?

Not quite, but I'll tell you what is.

Is

mum

sleeping it off?

Yeah.

Are you going to give us a hand?

In a minute.

Sit.

You're going to get that.

Nick, I thought I told you not to come
here.

What was that for?

Always wanted to kiss her head, boy.

Your work was done before your mum
arrived.

Like you said, people can make up their
own minds.

They wanted to.

Bit like me.

Have I forgotten anniversary?

I recognised that I'd neglected someone
who deserves a treat for all the rubbish

they've had to put up with recently.

From me.

And from them.

That, and, erm... What?

Council safety have sent him a written
warning.

Might finally be getting through to him.

Evicted?

I'll kill him, Earl.

Earl, it says one more disturbance and
we're out.

Yeah? I'll give him that.

No more Mr Grumpy Neighbour, I promise.

The hell was that?

Think it went that way.

Really big cat, this one.

You happen to love it with the
environmental health.

You're finished, Kelly!

Tom, leave it. Come on. Come on. Tom,
leave it, please.

Please, come on. Look at the car.

I know, I know. Come on. Let's get back
inside.
