All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s08e06

Looks like you might have to hand over
to your niece for the day.

Might I?

I want to see Michael before I die.

I'm sure he will come when he knows how
serious your situation is. But I want to

make peace.

I don't want his pity.

I am fine, Connor.

That's why I've booked your doctor's
appointment.

He'd be delighted to accommodate you
here at Waterloo Road.

I was only trying to prove myself to
Miss Donegan.

Whatever I might like, it'll never
happen again.

Look at this.

Gabrielle, Mummy's on the phone.

Come on, Jackie, pick up.

Now don't move off that sofa until
Charki gets a cajon.

Oh,

I'm sorry. It's just I've never done
anything like this before. I don't want

let you down.

Are you joking?

Janice, compared to your real job, this
is going to be a breeze.

I've seen the way you run that school. I
mean, I know Michael thinks he's in

charge, but you're the one who gets her
hands dirty.

You think?

Definitely. But if you don't get out of
your comfort zone, how are you ever

going to move on?

Unless you want to be a school secchi
the rest of your life. No way.

Listen, I really appreciate you doing
this for me at the last minute.

I hope childcare wasn't too much of a
problem.

That's what childcare's a far in it.

Good. You ready?

Come on, then.

So? Someone peed in my bed.

Oh, it's all right.

Don't worry about it.

It's Mingi.

Nothing to be embarrassed about.

Are you not hearing me? I never wet my
bed.

Rhiannon.

Oh, that's just plain daft now, that is.

I mean, I know you two don't get on, but
she's been making a real effort.

It's probably just a matter of action.

Here, drink plenty of water today and
we'll get you to the GP as soon as.

We can't have you disappearing to the
lab during my wedding vows, can we?

But I didn't do it.

Morning.

You've not seen Mr Budge in anywhere,
have you?

I have found the best white tuxedo on
the internet.

You look the spitter short, Connery.

What? I heard about your little
accident.

I hope Miss Sue's not been too hard on
you.

Oh, do you know?

If you need a hand later with that dirty
laundry, Miss?

No, you're all right. I'll manage.

And I think we're all clear on that last
one, so thank you very much. See you

soon. Cheers.

What did I tell you? You were fabulous.

Oh, thanks.

I didn't know that being a PA would be
so interesting.

I'm glad you think so, because I've
struggled to find a decent PA.

Someone who's not just using the job as
a springboard to management.

Really? Yeah, the way things are going,
there are going to be more events and

overseas travel than my secretary can
handle.

Sounds wicked.

Do you know, I'm always on the lookout
for the right person.

Have a think about it, will you?

Well, I so will.

Cheers.

How many units of alcohol do you drink
in a week?

15, maybe 20.

Want to tell me the truth now?

It's hard to say. I mean, the size of
wine glasses in pubs these days.

I think we're looking at a figure closer
to 100 or more.

Don't be ridiculous.

Miss Mulgrew, you have to face facts.

Drinking is making you extremely sick.

Well, it can't be. I don't drink any
more than anyone else I know. So what

do you suggest is causing your stomach
pain?

Itching, swollen legs, fainting
episodes?

Stress?

I'm a single mother with a demanding
job, but what would you know about being

working mum?

Miss Mulgrew... We are finished here.

Before you leave, could I ask you to
take a look at these?

They're your liver function test
results.

Are you sure that's right?

It's 15 times what it should be.

We can repeat them if you want, but they
only confirm my diagnosis.

So what is it?

Alcoholic hepatitis.

Am I going to die?

Not if you stop drinking.

So do I see that I've given you a lift?

I needed some air.

So what do you think of my proposal,
then?

Yeah, it's all right.

I'm discussing it with Michael in a
minute. Any thoughts?

You haven't read it, have you?

Well, how am I supposed to know?

I'm not a teaching expert.

Fine.

So listen, I might be late home tonight.

This gig and me and some mates are
going, so... What mates?

Just mates.

I thought we were watching the game,
getting a takeaway, aren't we?

Fine.

I need to copy these and she's changed
the code again.

Does anyone happen to know where she
keeps the key for the stationery

Oh, great.

I'm supposed to be discussing this with
Michael in five minutes. Post is in.

How is the groom -to -be?

Well, let's just say that Margaret's
interpretation of low -key exists

in a parallel universe to mine.

Oh, that's a sad state of affairs when
you're the only one of us in a serious

relationship.

Jealous, are we?

that I've stolen your crown as resident
Romeo.

Oh, you're welcome to it, mate. I'm done
with all that. I'm keeping my life nice

and simple from now on. Oh, don't
remember receiving my invitation to this

party. We're waiting for Denise.

What is she playing at?

I assume, as this was still in her desk,
you haven't had a chance to look

through my new module ideas.

I'm afraid not, no.

Well, I've got a free period.

We can have a chat in half an hour or
so. I can't, Tom. I've got an anti

-bullying charity coming in and God
knows I'm going to find a brochure

underneath all of this. Well, it's the
syllabus deadline tomorrow.

Look, I'll have a read of it before
lunchtime and catch up with you then. I

promise. Is that OK?

If it's not too much trouble.

Is everything all right?

What does it look like?

I was just wondering if you'd had a
chance to visit your father yet.

Oh, I think you already know the answer
to that question.

It's been years, Michael.

You're both different people now.

He's got to you, hasn't he?

He's an old man.

Jan, he's a bully.

And a good one. So just leave it.

I knew it was you.

Well, aren't you the Sherlock Holmes?

What kind of disgusting psycho pees in
someone else's bed? It's crazy. Which is

why no one's going to believe you if you
tell them.

All right, Phoenix?

Mum!

What?

You can't give me a heart attack.

Sorry. Did the doctor say?

Everything's fine.

I'm not stupid.

All right, stop your nagging.

Fine.

I do have something.

It's cold.

Alcoholic hepatitis.

You need to stop drinking it. I know all
about that. No, how could you possibly

know? Just tell me what you need.

No one must find out.

I mean it.

If I lose this job, that's it for this
con. I promise me.

Cora.

Shouldn't you be at home, though?

Won't you get with sore symptoms?

I can handle it.

Morning.

Dr Lee, senior registrar.

Hi, Daniel Chalk.

You brought Cheryl in today?

Yeah. So, what happened?

She burnt her hand on some hair tongs. I
wasn't actually there at the time,

so... Was your wife?

No, no.

Janice, Miss Bryant, Cheryl's mum, we're
not... We're not married.

You live together?

No, in the same building. They're
different flats. That's why I didn't see

note at first.

Note? Yeah.

It's all my fault, really. I should have
heard a knocking, but the music crank

took to 11, you know.

Yes, she wanted me to drop Cheryl off at
the childminder's.

Miss Bright, she had an urgent call.

The child was home alone?

No.

Well, yes.

But nowhere near as long as last time. I
mean, it could only have been a couple

of minutes. So this isn't the first time
it's happened?

Oh, no. This is coming out all wrong.

Janice, she's a great mum. You'll see
when you meet her.

I can't get in touch with her, can't get
a signal. Do you think she'll be able

to get in this morning?

Oh, definitely, yeah.

If you let one of the nurses know when
she arrives, I can sort out a time for

social services to interview her.

Can you smell it? No.

Like toilet.

Stale toilet.

Oh, yeah. Sorry, Scout.

Where's Mr Chalk?

I said, where's Mr Chalk?

He's not here.

Well, what do you mean he's not here?
What, is he popped out of? He's not

he's not here.

Miss Bryan, where have you been?

And where is Mr Chalk?

Wait, I'll meet you back down at the
office. Thank you.

Rest of you, sit back down, please.

I'll be sending up some cover in a
minute, so don't get excited.

And then suddenly, the fire alarm
started going off, so everyone started

it into the car park.

Pyjamas and everything.

And then I left my keys in the flat.

And Daniel?

What, safe?

Right, so both you and Daniel locked
yourselves outside your flat?

Nightmare. And then we had to wait for
hours for the fire brigade to break back

in for us.

Why didn't you call?

Well, because I dropped my phone and the
fire engine ran over it and then it got

smashed to pieces.

Right, look.

Lorraine asked me to do a job.

And Chalky said that he was going to
drop Cheryl off and he didn't turn up

he's not got anyone touching him.
Lorraine should have known that you

be here.

It won't happen again.

You're absolutely right, it won't happen
again. Have you any idea how serious

this is?

I can't run a school like this. No more
disappearing acts, Janice.

And consider this an official warning.

What? This office is the beating heart
of Waterloo Road. I need you totally

committed. And I am.

And no more personal calls.

Fine.

Sorry.

Janice. Janice!

I was thinking of doing a running
coffee, but I reckon a sit -down's a bit

classier. Don't you think?

Anyway, I'm going to try a French fish
soup this lunchtime, see what these lot

make of it.

I...

That was my birthday present off
Grantley.

But it wasn't me.

Scout, I don't know what to say to you.

How long are you going to keep this up
for?

Until everyone sees you for the cow you
really are.

My cat's here now.

I've told you, she's in the loo with one
of the nurses.

I feel sick.

The worst has happened. We've just got
to get her better.

Why did I go to Lorraine's stupid
meeting? I'm such an idiot.

No, you're not.

Denise, there's something I've got to
tell you.

This is Michael.

Don't worry, I'll be here as long as you
need me.

Are you sure?

I don't want you to, but you've done
more than enough for us today.

Janice.

My baby.

Look,

look, you'll be fine. Just go.

Blanche Dubois does not want to live in
the real world, so she invents a

fantasy one.

Sorry,

where was I?

Fantasy world.

Do you think this has anything to do
with her downfall?

Yeah, she's her own worth enemy.

She can't handle who she really is.

Is it hot in here?

No.

It is.

It's very hot.

Blanche is in denial.

Someone open a window, please.

And she will do anything to keep herself
in her safe, make -believe world.

Is that why she's always knocking back
the booze I miss?

What's up with her?

She's lost it.

Relax, will you? 20 years I've been
teaching that.

It's time for a change.

No way. We've done a ton of work on it
already.

I am in charge here, you little creep.
You can't talk to him like that.

What about his coursework?

So the past two months have been a
complete waste.

I must have told Mr Clarkson about this.

Shut your face up!

I don't know, but I don't think she is.

For God's sake, Scout! What?

Why did you... No, I never... What? I'll
ruin my diary.

What is this? It's no group.

What in the world is going on here?

We've got a Scout date.

No! No!

No!

Stop that.

No!

Make your way to the cooler now. This is
all you!

She keeps doing this, making up stories
about me.

Why can't any of you see she's twisting
things?

I'm not.

Tell her you smashed her perfume.

Go where you normally take the perfume.

This blaming Rhiannon has got to stop.

I'm sick of this, and I'm sick of you
lot. I'm going to get through, and then

you're going to be the sorry one.

Miss Bryant, where are you going?

I'm going home. The nurse said when
Cheryl comes back, we can go. Didn't Mr.

Talk tell you?

Tell me what?

We've had to report your daughter's
injury to social services.

What does that mean?

We can't discharge her until you've
spoken to a social worker.

Well, what did Charlie say?

I'm sure the social worker will be able
to answer all your questions.

What you did was completely
irresponsible.

I had no choice.

Put yourself in my shoes. What would you
do? I'd have notified my employer for a

start. I tried to call you. Of course I
did. I couldn't get a signal. The point

is, you're not even a child's father.

Your duty is to the student population
here.

Could you keep it down, please? The
whole school can hear you.

They flout you being late.

I was at the inn with Cheryl.

She was left in the house on her own and
she hurt herself.

Well, where was Denise?

Oh, at some meeting with Lorraine,
apparently.

Well, that's totally out of order. You
should have a word with her, I will or

not. You won't have to.

Social services are taking care of it.
Social services? You've not dropped her

in it, have you?

No. I'm taking care of it.

Good. The last thing Denise needed was
social sniffing around.

I don't take any notice of him. He did
the right thing.

No, what department?

Child welfare, child protection, whoever
takes care of hospitals.

Look, I need to talk to someone
urgently. There's been a serious

misunderstanding here.

There you are.

I heard about your perfume.

I didn't think Scout had it in her to be
so nasty.

Why would you do such a thing? Oh, don't
waste your time pondering the

unanswerable.

I could always show you this instead.

I saw it and I thought that.

Is my Grantley. Then it came to me,
right?

James Bond themed wedding. You, Bond,
obviously.

Me, pussy galore.

Michael, gold finger, chalky jaws.

Right, that's it.

One more word about tuxedos, flowers or
chocolates in the shape of a giant panda

from the foothills of the Himalayas.
I'll be a lot more than shaken and

It's just an idea.

Consider it binned.

Chippers.

Hello? There must be somebody I can talk
to.

No. I wasn't going to drink it.

Is this your idea of helping? Because
the only thing you're helping me do is

want to drink. And when I do, it'll be
your fault.

Mum... Stop going on. I've had enough of
it today.

Why?

What's happened?

Get off me. What did you do to my mum?
Nothing?

Yeah, no, I heard. She attacked me, eh?

She's a total nutjob, just like you.

Couldn't let him go. It wasn't his
fault.

Your mum, she's in a bad way.

She was totally out of it.

I even saw her asking for help.

Asking who?

It looked like she was praying.

You know I'm here for you, if you need
me.

What's up with your mum?

It's bad, isn't it?

I'm managing just fine.

Do you feel as if you're spending enough
time with your daughter?

Of course.

She does seem to be in other people's
care a lot of the time.

As her mother, don't you feel you could
make more time?

What?

That weird mother.

Our mother's middle -aged, dresses
boring and fancies Jason Donovan.

Me and Cheryl, we're more like best
mates.

We're concerned that Cheryl's needs
aren't being met.

Look, I know things aren't perfect.

But I've been offered an amazing job.

Have you heard of Lorraine Donegan?

Well, I'm going to have plenty of money
coming in to set up for Cheryl's future.

Take the call if you want.

It's right now you need to focus on
rather than the future.

And we can help by paying regular visits
to your home and working with you and

everything from night -time routines to
dietary plans.

Are you going to take my baby away from
me?

We're going to be keeping a very close
eye on Cheryl to ensure she gets all the

care and attention from you that she
needs.

Doc.

Look, I'm sorry I didn't look at this
until now.

It's been a bit of a morning.

Yes, so I gather.

Don't you think you were a little bit
hard on Chalky earlier?

Well, I think he's got his priorities
wrong.

In fact, the same thing could be said
about your proposal, if I'm honest.

Media literacy is important.

Mm -hm.

Well, if we combine different media
forms, like reality TV and adverts, it

make the lessons more relevant.

Don't you think they're bombarded with
that kind of stuff already?

So you think we should just ignore the
outside world?

No, I think Shakespeare and Wordsworth
can provide our GCSE students with all

the literacy they need. And I'm not
saying that we can't have both. Tom,

not convincing me.

Sorry, can I interrupt?

Michael, I'm aware you've plenty on your
plate at the moment, but earlier this

morning I discovered Christine's Year 12
class song teacher.

To say it was pandemonium would be an
understatement. What is going on?

The teacher's dropping that prize.

I told you to work unimpaired.

Keep the chat down.

Can I?

I can't believe it.

They're not so classy as to really help.

Mr.

Jock.

Sorry, were you, er... Where were we? I
was thanking you.

You deserved it. You worked hard.

Is it Janice?

Did you know?

The whole school can see she's got you
running round like a lapdog.

Sorry.

Exhausted just thinking about today, let
alone years of Janice -related drama.

Yeah, I think my dad thinks the same
about me.

Don't think he'll ever let me move out,
just so he can keep an eye on me.

He's all daft, but he's like everything.

It's been on its own. It's like it uses
me as a relationship substitute.

Don't get me wrong, I love chilling with
him. It's just like sometimes we're an

all -married couple.

Have you told him?

No, I don't want to upset him.

You might upset him at first, but once
the truth's out, you can start to fix

things.

What are you worried about, then?

Abandoning your class mid -lesson?

Public meltdowns, allegations of
assault.

Something to do with Phoenix Taylor.

It's all been a big misunderstanding.

I wanted to take the heat out of the
situation.

Mm -hm.

You see, Phoenix has been making...
..advances towards

me. What?

Well, then we should get him up here
right away.

Oh, let's not be hasty.

Everything's under control.

I mean, I've been round the block a few
times and this isn't the first time I've

seen something like this.

I find it's normally boys lacking in a
father figure.

But you needn't worry, I can handle it.

Well, if it does happen again, make sure
you come to me.

Believe me, it won't.

Therefore, the line AB has the equation
3X plus 2Y equals 7.

And it's impossible.

Well, I run an extra class on a Friday
afternoon after school, if you're

interested. You're all welcome.

We?

Count me in.

I'll wait.

I can't.

Why?

Just forget it, yeah?

So, Mads, looking fine today?

So, listen, I've got a couple of tickets
for a gig tonight.

You interested?

I'd love to.

All right.

If I was desperate to hang out with a
brainless ape... Child.

Get on with your work, please.

Quiet on your way out. I'll see you
tomorrow.

How could you do this to me? How could
you betray me?

I've married four other kids.

You're my best.

I didn't betray you.

They asked me questions.

I couldn't lie.

Why not?

Why should I?

I'm sick of lying for you.

I'm sick of being a 24 -hour baby
-dumping service.

I'm sick of watching you neglect Cheryl.

Do you know what? You're just like the
rest of them. You think I'm something

we can't do right by my own girl.

Do you know what? Lorraine saw my
potential and she's offered me a job.

your life. Can't you see?

It's not about you. It's about Cheryl.

You are so... You're so selfish. Excuse
me? I'm selfish? You're the one that's

been using us because you're a sad,
lonely old man who'll never amount to

anything and never have a family of his
own.

I wouldn't want to be part of your
family anyway.

Everyone, show's over.

Taking care of it, have you?

Dad.

You shouldn't have done that to Janice.

What, so we should have lied? Yes.

No.

Because that's what you do with
everything, innit?

Lie to yourself.

Everything's fine, but all your problems
will magically disappear.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means I don't want to hang with you
all the time.

I know you're lonely, but it's too much
for me.

And in my own life, too.

I'm not your partner, I'm your son.

Got some ice for that vid today.

What's your problem?

What is it with you?

Always wanting to know what a man's
thinking.

Get over yourself.

I'm not the one with a problem here.

Forget it. Can't be doing the games.

Why aren't you sitting there?

Because I know what you're going
through.

You can't say she doesn't deserve it. Of
course she doesn't.

We are talking about the same Janice.

The mother who concealed her child's
chicken pox rat with make -up so as not

be inconvenienced.

Shall I leave?

Shall I?

No, I wouldn't want to spoil a good
gossip.

I was just saying I think you're right.

I didn't do anything apart from tell the
doctor what happened.

You did the right thing, Daniel. This is
not your fault.

This is none of our business. It is, as
a matter of fact.

We're her friends, it's our job, not the
socials, to help her out.

Really?

So what have you done?

What have you been doing in the way of
good Samaritan?

What have any of you done?

I'm the one that looks after Cheryl.

I'm the one that knows her.

She's none of that.

Happy kid.

I tried telling Denise a thousand times,
but she doesn't want to hear it. You

wouldn't understand, Chucky. You've no
family of your own. You've no idea what

she's going through.

I do.

I'm going to prove it.

I'll prove you wrong.

Are you sure that's Rhiannon?

Shh. He's listening to the clip.

And we're in.

Nice one.

What are we looking for?

Yes, Scout.

What are you looking for?

If it's a long suspension, I think Mr.
Byrne would agree with me.

You've just found one.

What do you think I'm doing? Do you
think I want to touch that cow's straw?

I can't believe that I was feeling sorry
for you. I came out here, you know, to

make amends.

This is just beyond me.

Do you know what? I don't care anymore
because I know I'm right.

Oh, Scout.

I'm sorry you didn't like my soup.

I made my mistake.

Are you kidding?

I've just lost my appetite.

You bring some more next week. We both
know that I can't keep sneaking around

like this. Michael needs to know and he
doesn't need to hear it from me.

No progress then?

No, you have to tell him. No.

This isn't fair.

I told you I won't have his pity.

Can you not see how ridiculous this is?
Michael is your son.

I've lived alone all these years. I'm
sure I can manage to die alone.

Rhiannon, how could you?

This was in your locker.

Because she planted it in there?

I don't believe you. You're lying.

Show your hands.

What? You heard.

Sure. No, wait.

That'll be your perfume allergy then.
No.

Scout, I'm so sorry.

Never in my life have I come across such
mean, spiteful,

atrocious behaviour.

I think maybe you should both meet me in
there in a minute.

Please. You heard him. Move.

Back out.

That's right.

Fatty.

Yeah, ginger.

Moose.

Minger.

That's funny, isn't it?

Slag!

Skank!

These are words that have been around
for years.

In the corner of the classroom.

The top deck of school buses.

But just recently, bullying's come out
of the shadows. Bullying has turned pro.

The internet, television, in your
newspapers.

All of a sudden, everyone, everywhere,
is trading on hating and bitching. In

fact, we've got so used to it, we don't
even know that we're doing it.

Now, no matter what you call them, it's
still bullying.

So today I'm going to offer you all a
bullying amnesty. If you are bullying

someone, this is your chance to stop it
and offer an apology.

And if you think that you are being
bullied, there's even the potential here

forgive.

Janice.

Janice.

Look, I know you think I messed up. I'm
not listening.

Believe me, I'm not feeling particularly
warm and fuzzy towards you either right

now. A lot of stuff's been said, a lot
of...

Bad stuff.

We've got to work through that.

Look, if you're going to take this job
with Lorraine, why

don't you and Cheryl move

into my spare room?

Just till you get yourself sorted, you
know?

I'm not like those other men in your
life, Janice.

I'm not using you.

I'm your friend.

Good friends.

I don't think so.

Not after everything that happened
today.

I'm sorry.

You've been avoiding my calls?

No. Right, well, we've things to
discuss.

Lorraine, how about I'm busy?

Later? No, I don't think so. In fact,
this whole day has turned into total

since you decided to steal my secretary
again. I pay her wages.

And I run the school.

OK, pop by my office in a few minutes,
right?

Right.

So, a bullying amnesty?

Yeah. Forgiveness?

Absolutely.

Shame you can't apply that to you and
your father.

This place, are you completely
incompetent today?

Oh, I've had it up to here with you, Mr
Byrne. You're bossy, you never laugh,

and don't you just love the sound of
your own voice going on and on and on?

Janice? Do you know what? You can take
your stupid job and you can shove it.

Don't feel sorry for me, because I'm
going to go and work with someone who

actually appreciates me.

Lorraine!

Phoenix, there you are.

Have you got time for a quick word?

I've got nothing to say to you.

Look, I just want to apologise for my
behaviour before. I was out of line. I

admit that... You're not always going
about manners and stuff.

But you're just a hypocrite.

You're absolutely right.

The problem is, I don't think you
understand what an immensely powerful

presence you have.

A few years ago... I was attacked.

Incl...

And when I saw you standing there like
that... I think my reaction today

was more about him and not you.

But I would never try to... No, no, no,
I know.

Of course not.

Phoenix, I am sorry.

If you want to take this further, then I
understand.

You must do what you think is best.

It's all right, Miss.

See free yet?

Three sacks.

Oh, actually, I've got this lunch
meeting I need to sort out for tomorrow.

You all right to help me out again?

Yeah, definitely.

Great.

Lorraine?

Um... Do you know, um, this PA job,
well, I've decided... Great, just, uh,

me their details.

Well, I've decided that, well...

I'll do it.

I'd love to be a PA.

Oh, Janice, I'm sorry, but I didn't mean
you.

I was asking you for suggestions.

The type of PA I'm looking for would
need to be a researcher, write reports,

deputise for me, manage budgets.

Have you ever managed a corporate budget
before?

No.

And can you speak any foreign languages?

No.

Janice, I think you need to be honest
with yourself.

Know your limitations.

You're a fantastic girl, but in my
experience, there's no point wasting

life trying to be something you're not.

All right?

If you want a copy of past papers,

see me at the end of the lesson.

Sir.

Please, can I go to the toilet?

Lunch break finished not half an hour
ago. You've had plenty of chance.

Sir, but it's really urgent.

I'm feeling sick.

Me too.

Bunch of incontinent infants.

Not you too.

I can't get sick like that.

I don't care about me, but what about
the baby?

Perhaps you should alert Mr. Byrne.

Will you excuse me?

Janice? Well done, Chuck. Ten out of
ten. You was right.

I'm an idiot.

I didn't say that.

My range job, it never even existed.

You've still got your own job.

After the fight, I... I quit.

I decided to put it off.

I'm going to go and stay with my mum.

Peter?

For how long?

I really think you should think about
giving Janice her job back.

You can't be serious.

I understand, but I think maybe you
know.

There's a good reason she's been off her
game today.

Daniel, it's not just about today, all
right? It's nothing personal.

This is about my office ceasing to
function, which in turn affects the

school.

Is that it, then? Yes, I'm sorry.

Look, this job, it means everything to
her. Yes, and the efficient running of

Waterloo Road means everything to me.
Please, just give her one more chance.

I guarantee she won't let you down. I'll
take full responsibility.

Sir, Mr Budgeon sent me. There's a bunch
of people throwing up.

Yes, OK, I'll be there.

All right, one more chance.

You won't regret it. Daniel, this might
be none of my business, OK, but I think

that you're getting too involved.

You know, I need to be able to rely on
all of my teachers.

Well, you can't.

You know I'll dedicate them to my job.
Look, I think you're so wrapped up in

what Janice wants at the moment that
you've forgotten about what it is that

want.

Oh, looking at me baby -bombed.

How many weeks?

Seventeen.

Have they given you a hard time?

How are you feeling?

Knackered.

Excited.

Scared.

There's going to be this little person,
and it's completely up to me to look

after them.

You're dead lucky you've got Mr Chalk.

He'd do anything for you.

Not anymore.

So why did I see him shouting at Mr
Byrne, getting your job back?

Do you think he did that?

It must be so great having someone
supportive.

I wish I did.

Thank you.

You have saved my life once again. How
many more times, Mr George?

I'm glad.

Look, I realised I was a bit hasty
before, you know, when I... Said about

moving in idea.

Bit daft, really.

No.

I think it's the best idea that you've
ever had.

But if we're going to do it, we're going
to do it properly.

None of that spare room rubbish.

I don't think you... You what?

Well, I've been dreaming about a
fairytale for years, and it's been the

one.

Because...

You've been there and I should have
kissed you a long time ago.

Does that make me the frog in this
scenario?

Eh?

Never mind.

Listen, you're tired.

You don't know what you're saying.

Look, it's the only thing that's made
sense all day.

Chuck, who's the only person that makes
me laugh?

Who's the first person that I run to
when I've got some stupid gossip to

And who was the first person who ever
taught me how to play the air guitar?

Well, all the best relationships are
built on mutual air -guitaring.

Why do you always have to make a joke
when I'm trying to be serious, Jock?

I wasn't joking.

See?

Like a bickering couple already, aren't
we?

Come on, Jock, shall we need you?

I need you.

It's what you want, innit?

Can I have a word with you?

I am so sorry.

I think this is all my fault.

Go on.

I tried a new recipe at lunchtime.

French fish soup. I thought the
shellfish were all right.

They can't have been. Well, thank you
for telling me.

Oh, my God.

What have I done to you? I can't believe
this is happening.

I don't know what you mean.

Right, we need to go out on weekend and
celebrate. Which club should we go to?

Well, we could just stay in, couldn't
we? Get a takeaway, watch a bit of

Perfect. Hey, there's an X -Files night
on one of the channels.

Oh, no.

X -Files are blessed.

I'd better get back to my class.

My prince.

Those who are unwell, please, stay where
you are until your parents arrive.

Everybody else, make your way out of the
building now.

This has got something to do with you,
hasn't it? Whatever it is, you need to

tell the teacher now. Jade could get
sick and all.

You as well.

It's okay, Flower.

No.

I'm so sorry.

I've waited since lunchtime to hear you
say that.

No, you don't understand.

The sick people, it's all my fault.

Of course it's not.

I did it.

I put it in the soup and now people are
going to die because of me.

Josh. Josh, wait up.

Look, I'm not going to bother with the
match tonight. I'll give you a lift to

your gig if you like. Or get in the bus.

Well, I'm sure I can squeeze you all in.

Seven of us.

Message received.

You two made it up then?

Yeah. Thanks very much for the chat.

Glad I got help.

Well, you've been busy today sorting out
everyone's kids for them.

Who, me?

What would I know, eh?

Not being a parent myself.

Chalky.

I'm sorry.

About your niece.

I understand that you did it for Cheryl.

You were so lucky that that stuff wasn't
lethal, but just tell us why.

I'll tell you what I think.

I think that you're so full of hatred
and anger that you don't even know who

are anymore.

I'm so sorry.

I don't expect you to forgive me, but
I'll try and make it up to you.

Don't you ever come near me or my mates
again.

Can you pass us that cloth, please?

I'm sorry if I've been a nightmare.

And if you want to call the wedding off,
I understand.

Only can we stay friends?

Why on earth would I want to call it
off?

What's this?

I was saving it.

But I think you need to open it now.

I love thee with the breath, smile,
tears of all my life.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

And I mean every word.

Oh, you've brought me back to life,
Margaret. Made me remember me, the

me.

I'd forgotten existed.

You're my family now.

Sorry I'm late.

You should go.

Yeah, well, I thought you were giving me
a lift.

Why don't we go home and spoil Cheryl
Rotten?

I meant Ibiza.

You should go to Ibiza, to your mum's.

Yeah, well, I thought that you hated the
hot weather.

I can't.

Can you honestly put your hand on your
heart and say I'd make you happy?

I love you.

It's the first time anyone's ever said
that to me.

I know that you love me too.

Of course I do.

Look, me and you, look, we're good
together.

We're going to have such a laugh. A
laugh's not enough for either of us.

My dad always said I were nothing, and
he were right.

That's the problem with parents. They
always think they know everything.

Are you going to send me back to
Rochdale?

No, we're going to let you stay. But in
addition to your suspension, there is

one other condition.

I'm going to introduce you to someone I
know.

She's setting up an anti -bullying
website run for teenagers and by

They're recruiting for people to work on
the helpline. You think you can handle

that?

Come in.

You've just got to forget about your
family, Rihanna.

Get on with your own life.

I've tried. It don't work.

Well, keep trying.

If you want to screw yourself up, that
is fine, but not the kids.

What?

Just offering advice. It's life tools.
It worked for me.

Because your life tools have worked so
well, your father will end up dying

alone.

What are you talking about?

He didn't want me to tell you because he
didn't want your pity, but I can see

there's no chance of that happening. How
dare you invade my privacy like this?

My family has nothing to do with you.

So if you know what's good for you,
you'll just back off.

You understand?

I'll back off.

But I cannot pretend to understand you.

Your father's not the only bully in your
family.

You'll be grand.

Well, I suppose I can spend more time
with Chevron.

Try and be in a great mum.

So, is it then?

Thank you.

Hey, and I'm sorry about everything that
I said earlier.

I didn't mean it.

Not all of it, anyway.

And you know that if things don't work
out for you in Ibiza, you can always

back to us.

You're part of the family.

I'm going to make you all so proud.

I can't believe you're here.

I came here for one reason, Dad.

To tell you to stay away from me.

But I am staying away. How dare you use
Sian to get to me?

I just want to make peace before it's
too late.

I don't believe you.

I remember the day we brought you back
from the hospital.

You were so tiny and so perfect.

Spare me the clichés, please.

How about the day you locked me in a
cupboard because I contradicted you in

front of your friends? Or the day you
beat me with that belt because I spilled

tea on your chair?

It wasn't like that. You always had an
active imagination.

Let's not forget your spectacular
ability to rewrite history.

I must have done something right. No!

No way.

Any success I've had is in spite of you,
not because of you.

Which is why I will not allow you back
into my life.

Don't contact me again.

Please.

You don't understand.

I'm dying.

I buried you a long time ago, Dad.

Are you right, Sian, you dirty stopper?
It's me again.

Do you remember Home Alone, Kit? Today's
work experience initiative will be a

great opportunity.

At least it'll give some of them an idea
of the options that are open to them.

Yeah, like earning money instead of
getting into serious debt. Got a new

then? What makes you think I've got a
new fella?

Stop trying to make decisions for me.
You're breathing down my neck all the

time. I can't stand it.

Oh, now, now, you two, leave it out. How
much do you want, leech?

£3 ,000.

What's the big deal? Just a room with a
bunch of headsets. This is the land of

opportunity.

There's new evidence in a case from
1998. Can you help?

Crimewatch is next.

On BBC Two now, delivery of The Choir as
Gareth Malone hits the mail office in

Bristol. While over on BBC Three,
Russell Howard is back for Series 7. And

got a ton of good news for you.
