My resignation.

I don't want to be your deputy head
anymore.

It's Michael, isn't it?

I want to see Emily.

Where else am I supposed to go? They're
looking into foster care.

Where did you get this?

I really don't want to go home tonight.

Can I pay you?

Are you going to answer that?

Look, you're going to have to talk to
her eventually.

Well, don't you think your kids deserve
an explanation?

I'm off to work.

At least try and eat something.

Good morning, guys.

Looking sharp.

Thanks, sir. So we're all, sir.

Phoenix.

I just wanted to apologize to you for
having to witness that incident.

And I got your note. Thank you.

No problem.

That's all over now.

Your nan would be proud of you for being
so grown up.

You okay, sir?

Yeah. See you later.

Morning.

When's Dad coming back to work?

Maybe he's going to go in.

I'll give him a call, shall I?

This is what I've been working towards
all of my career. This is what we've

discussing for the last year.

Yeah, but it isn't that easy.

It's not just us, is it? But this is a
great opportunity.

We'd be nuts not to take it. We'll talk
about it later.

Talk about what?

Anyway, shouldn't you be heading in?
Yeah, sure. Just get me bagged. You

in two, love?

So, you're set for the prize giving?

I heard you're practising just now. It
sounded brilliant.

I'm really looking forward to it. Are
you coming?

Of course.

Simon wants to, but something's come up.
Julie, have you seen my laptop lead

anywhere? Have a good day, love.

See you at the prize giving.

So how was your dad about you and Harris
splitting up?

Not good.

It can't have been easy for him.

It wasn't, but it's more important to my
dad that I'm happy.

So, I guess I know you two will be
voting for it in the People's Choice

Not her, mate. She's already on top of
everything.

Yeah, whatever you do, just don't vote
for my dad's the best teacher because I

will not hear the end of it.

Oh, here we go.

Just grow up, Tarrick. Yeah, what are
you, like seven?

Is this why you left early, sis?

You told Dad some lies about helping out
in the prize giving.

Sneak around with this muppet. All
right, we get it. You're not happy. I

you to stop messing with my family.

Please promise someone else. I'm not
promised to anyone. Tarrick, you're

twisting it. Is that why you can't tell
Dad about it?

They're moving to Bristol?

Simon's been offered a job.

I don't want to go.

Who do I know in Bristol?

I've never even been there.

Can't they move to another family and
stay here?

This is so unfair.

I like they're going to turn down a job
for some foster care.

They're not going to split us up.

Don't worry.

Best effort in science. Best performance
in extracurricular activities.

Don't know why they don't just give them
all a prize and be done with it. Just

nervous about his acceptance speech.

What? Most inspirational teacher.

Hi.

Hiya.

Still no chairs, then?

Do I detect trouble in paradise?

Yeah, looks like it.

Come on, you sound like a bunch of
fishwives.

Morning, everybody.

All ready for the prize -giving?

I have in here the names of all of
today's winners, bar two, the pupils'

for student and teacher of the term,
which they'll be voting later on. Just

spice things up, the winning teacher
will receive this case of wine.

Now, I know it's been a pretty full -on
term. You've had to get used to my way

of doing things. Amen, amen.

I hope that you feel as I do that we've
made some sort of...

Progress. Hey, you're back.

Just to get my kids and my stuff.

Right, you're leaving?

Well, I haven't got much choice.

Remember, the boss has been shagging my
wife.

Go on, then.

You're the union rep. I need to talk to
you.

If I make it.

Sorry, Brantley, but I need to speak to
my husband.

Yeah?

Go on, be in the room.

I've been worried about you.

It's a bit late for that.

Where are you going? Are you going to
take the kids?

What's that got to do with you?

You're not their mum and you're not my
wife.

Not anymore.

I need an inset of foster parents who
aren't moving to Bristol. I reckon I've

got a solution.

Is everything all right?

It is now.

Thanks.

So what's the solution, then?

Leave it with me. Oh, so you work for
Social Services now, do you? Right,

as we can, with the register, please. I
have important union business to attend

to. Where are you going?

We've got music practice now. Like I
said, I'm starting it out for you.

Tell Mr Wilden I've got something on.

Sir, I'm here. I just need to speak to
Mr. Chalk.

Hi.

Tom. Sorry, I haven't cleared my desk
properly.

I didn't know Jez was coming in.

Pretty upset.

Not surprising, but... Has he said much
to you?

Not really. He hasn't got off the sofa
in three days.

Sorry he got caught up in all of this.

It's OK.

It won't be long before Zach and Maddy
find out.

It's about the whole school knows by
now.

I'll see you later.

There's nothing here, nothing to fear.

Just phone me back, yeah?

I nearly died. I want to see my
daughter.

You said you'd bring her in. Please, I
can't stand this.

Grantley. Cheers.

I'm here in my capacity as Jeremy's
union representative.

What can I do for you? Jeremy believes
that as a result of the situation

yourself and Mrs Diamond, his position
as a member of staff is now.

Well, I agree that what's happened makes
things somewhat difficult, but I'd

rather not lose any members of staff
over this. You are the head teacher. You

have slept with your deputy and
cuckolded your head of PE.

If that isn't constructive dismissal, I
don't know what is. You're right, but,

Jeremy, it's you and I that need to talk
about this. Plus, it's bad for morale.

It undermines the trust amongst staff.
Now, we believe it constitutes a gross

dereliction of duty on your part.

What? We will be drafting a letter of
complaint and sending it to the Board of

Governors. Hold on a minute. I'm sure we
can sort this thing out without

resorting to such extreme measures. You
will get a copy of the complaint in due

course. Doesn't feel great, does it?
When you realise everything you care

is going to be taken away from you.

Jeremy.

Guys, the distance you've come in one
term is incredible. I'm really proud of

you. So just enjoy yourselves this
afternoon, yeah?

Oi, no showing off.

No -one likes a show -off.

Sorry to interrupt, Mr Wilding. I need
to speak with Jodie Allen.

OK. Can it not wait till break time?

It really can't, I'm afraid.

Jodie?

Don't worry. I've got the others to fill
you in on anything you miss, OK?

Thank you.

Right. Shall we go from the chorus?

Okay. Five, six...

Take a seat.

I got your letter.

Right.

Whatever's been happening, you can tell
me.

Okay, I'm on your side.

So do you think you can tell me when you
first noticed this?

Which bit?

The things your foster father did that
made you feel uncomfortable.

The what?

The way he touched you.

I know this is difficult, but between
school and social services, we will make

you safe.

So I'll get moved to different foster
parents then? Most likely, but you

will have to tell me what happens.

Last day of term.

Yes. And traditionally, we play games
and watch videos.

Yes.

Criticism questions from last year's
paper.

45 minutes.

No talking.

Mr. Button, I'll take Maddie, please.

Bring all your stuff, love.

Right, what's going on?

Why have you pulled us out of class?

I'm sorry, right?

But I need to talk to both of you.

We've been waiting to hear from you for
three days. Couldn't it have waited till

break?

I'm sorry.

Things have been difficult, all right?

But we're going to go to Ireland.

The three of us.

What? So we can spend some proper time
together there, all right?

Ireland? Yeah.

We can visit your auntie Liz.

Look, we're going to stay there for the
holidays, maybe a bit longer, and

there's a ferry that we can get on this
afternoon.

I'm not going anywhere till you tell us
what's going on.

I can't.

Dad, you disappeared for three days
straight.

Not a word, and we were worried sick.

Tell us what's going on, or we're not
going anywhere, all right?

Me and Sean are separating.

Anyway. How can you do this?

You leave Mum, now we're getting close
to Sean.

And you're ruining everything again?
You're so selfish.

Zach, mate. Zach.

You see?

I didn't want it to be like this.

And going to Ireland would make
everything okay.

Jodie Allen is in the right state.

She's made some serious allegations
about her foster father.

And you believe her?

Well, at first I didn't know what to
think of it. I'd spoken to her and...

something's not right. You should inform
the police.

Yeah, okay, I'll do it.

You okay?

Yeah. I mean, our problems aren't going
anywhere, are they?

Maddy.

Stay away from me.

Is everything okay?

What have you done?

I can't believe you wrote that.

I thought we were going to be that hated
in the summer.

It's guaranteed to get you out of there.
They go to Bristol, you stay here.

Job done. But Simon's not like that.
Well, he might be. He's not.

Look, it'll be fine. It wasn't anything
really bad.

You'll get moved and they'll be gone.

Or, if you'd rather, tell them it was me
and see what happens.

You can go to Bristol.

And I'll get permanently excluded.

You asked me to thaw it. I did.

Why did it have to be thawed?

Look, I was trying to help you. You're
my best friend.

My only friend.

I'm doing this so we can stay together.

Just trust me. I do.

All right.

If you think it'll work... It will.

I promise you.

Hello, Emily.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you
to step outside.

I was just checking she's okay, miss.

Do you know about what's been happening?

I can't believe it's happening to her,
too.

Just like it happened to my sister.

You'll be okay.

I promise.

It's great you've got strong friends
around you.

So, I've just called social services and
the police.

For the better, Jodie.

Okay.

He's lobbed it all the way over there.
You get down from there immediately. You

could break a window.

Someone's thrown his bag on the roof,
sir. Who?

It was me, sir.

Oh, I've heard them all now. Get the
site manager then. It's all the way up

here. Sharky, cooler now.

More for stupidity than disobedience.

Please, Mum, bring us back.

I really need to talk to you. I've been
looking for you everywhere.

You OK?

She's not answering.

I want to see her.

She's probably just got her hands full
with Grandad.

Hey, listen, don't be too hard on Dad,
all right? He's having a really hard

time. Do you know something?

No, it's just... He wouldn't finish with
Sian unless he had to.

Look, we'll have it ten times better
time when we're away.

Dad really wants us with him.

Let me know when you want to go.

Um, will you, uh, give this to him?

For your resignation.

Oh, I'm sorry to see you leave.

Not that I can blame you.

Yeah, well.

Um, so I guess we're not speaking then.

You know, because the other night, he
was really wasted.

And I know that it didn't mean nothing.

OK, yeah.

Look,

Tom said that you took me back to his.

Thanks for doing that.

Yeah, I'm OK.

With what?

Will you come on to me?

And I know it is because you caught up
over Sian. Are you kidding me?

Well, nothing actually happened, all
right.

You don't need to be so rude.

You weren't even that good a care. I
really don't need this right now, so can

you, like, just try and keep your mouth
shut for a bit?

Hey, everything all right?

Yeah, I just want to get out of there.

Jess,

are you sure you want to go ahead with
this complaint?

Yeah, why?

It could go on for months.

You might not even win.

It'll make me feel better.

And then what?

It's not going to get Sian back, is it?

Well, if that's not what you want, then
go for it.

I'm just thinking of you, mate.

Jodie, there's a female police officer
here to see you.

Ruth's a specialist in cases like this.

I've been thinking.

Maybe you've made too big of a deal out
of it.

I can't go through all this again.

Would you prefer it if I stayed? Miss,
please.

I just need to get somewhere, all right?

OK, but don't be too long, all right?

Let me in.

You don't think she won't answer your
phone?

I know you're in there.

You can't do this.

But I'm her foster mother. I can't. Mr
Byrne said no.

Hi. Is there a problem? I need to talk
to Jodie Allen.

It's an emergency, and this person says
I can't even speak to the head.

I'm terribly sorry. Follow me.

Yeah, but I was told not to. Thank you,
Janice.

I'll take it from here.

Michael, hi. A slight mix -up outside.

This is... Julie Walker, Jodie Allen's
foster mum. I just need to talk to her.

Allegation's been made. I'm afraid we
can't let you see her. You shouldn't

really be here.

Janice, obviously, got confused.

But there must have been some
misunderstanding.

Well, it's a police matter now.

I'm afraid you'll have to leave the
premises.

I'm very sorry. My husband's just been
put in handcuffs. Linda, would you see

Walker out, please? No, it's OK.

You go in.

But you tell Scout I was here.

I can't go back in there and lie to the
police.

They'll get them made it all up. We just
can't let you traumatised, you'll be

fine. It's easy for you to say, you
don't have to sit in there, do you?

Why on earth is she doing this?

You can't, you can't do this. Quick,
hide.

It's your bottom on. I don't need to
talk to her.

Oh, this is the nightmare, what have we
done?

I don't want to be... There's so much
trouble.

Let's get out of here.

Where's the

teacher?

Gone for lunch?

Don't worry, I didn't rash you up.

It's not why I'm here.

I just want to talk.

So, you like Rudy.

You care for her and stuff.

Yeah, I do.

And she has feelings for you, right?

I think so.

See, that's the problem.

Because you're just going to hurt her. I
won't.

Look, I would never... Why would you
want to come between Trudy and her dad?

It's just not worth it, man.

Stop messing with her feelings and find
yourself some other girl. You've got no

right to pick who you see.

My dad does.

And he needs her.

You see, since our mum passed, she's
been holding this family together.

I mean it.

We're flesh and blood.

I'm not going to let you go there.

You'll be fine.

We'll be drinking champagne later.

I'll hold you to that.

Well, have you come bearing it?

Your last day.

Like there was a time when pupils would
thank teachers for their commitment to

their education.

Is Mrs Diamond in?

I'm expecting exam results.

She's had midday.

Well, Mrs Diamond's got her hands full
at the minute.

Oh, not what you were hoping for.

Oh, well.

Never mind. Better look next time, eh?

So what did you get?

A B.

Hey, that's brilliant.

No, it's not.

I need an A to get into Sheffield and I
want to stay close to home.

Well, Southampton will give you a place
with a B.

And it's staying cautious. Edit
yourself.

I know.

So I'm still buying the champagne
tonight, then?

You OK?

Sorry you got busted.

You should have said it with Terry.
What, and wind him up even more?

Well, that's his problem.

I think he's got a point with me.

If you can't even tell your dad about
this, then how's this going to work?

What? I can't come between you and your
family.

Then you won't.

Can you look me in the eye and tell me
that your dad won't mind?

I don't think Simon's a pedo, though.

He might be.

My dad was.

We're in it deep now, aren't we?

Not only because he's chickened out on
me, but I think we should stick to the

plan. I did my bit.

You don't know what it's like in there.

Yeah, I do.

I've been through all this for real,
don't forget.

Yeah, sorry.

That Simon bloke stuck down the police
station being treated like a kiddie

fiddler. With his stupid wife screaming
the school down like some nutter.

Er, how is that funny?

What's wrong with you?

He's innocent.

And he's having a nightmare because of
what you wrote in that stupid letter.

I see.

You say we're best friends.

Sick as even.

But as soon as the heat's turned on,
you're blaming it on me?

Look, all our men... You don't get it,
do you? You and me, we're all we've got.

No one else cares about you.

I'd do anything for you.

But you're a backstabber.

You pretend like you care, but... Go on,
stick the knife in. Will you shut up?

Stop, come on.

No, I'm not bowing down to everything
you say. You're a bully. I wish I'd

made friends with you.

That's it. Walk away, just like all the
rest.

But if you try and dub me in, I'll just
deny it.

What are you saying?

You think we should have stopped because
of my dad?

I just don't want to cause you any more
grief at home.

It's me you're with.

Not my family, not my culture.

It's not about that.

I'll tell my dad.

Well, then Tarek will just have to deal
with it. If neither of them accept it,

it'll only get worse and we've got
nowhere to go.

I want to be with you.

You want to be with me, don't you?

Yeah, of course.

More than anything?

Yeah.

What are you doing?

I only take it off in front of my
family.

The people I care about.

Finn, you're one of them.

I mean it.

God, you're beautiful.

You know I love you, don't you?

I love you too.

But you've got to do what's right for
you.

Which is being with you.

You're my family now.

Thank you.

Well, they have a patrol car out looking
for them. They're kind of going far.

Yes?

Girl, where have you been?

You made some serious allegations and
then you just disappear. Why?

I didn't... I mean...

I shouldn't have.

They weren't true.

You're sure?

Because if you're scared, I understand.

I made it up, all of it.

Simon didn't do any of it.

I made them up to get out of moving
away.

You any idea how much trouble you've
caused?

I'm sorry. The story doesn't cut it. And
we'll have to inform the police

immediately so they can release Simon
and concentrate on genuine victims of

abuse.

Scout, did Emily have anything to do
with this?

Maybe she now.

I don't know.

You can get yourself to the cooler while
we decide on what your punishment's

going to be. Go.

You were very hard on her.

She was pretty hard on those foster
parents.

Yeah.

Don't worry, I'll stay over this.

If you're sure.

Yeah.

Scout, has someone upset you?

What's happened?

I can't give you the completion forms
until we've negotiated a proper price.

Yeah, I understand that, but I just
don't want to get gazumped.

He's donating it as a prize.

VR exercise.

Good luck with everything.

And you.

I'm well jealous you get real freedom.

Yeah, well...

Hey, it's good to see your business
enterprise is up and kicking, mate. You

me, Matt's always on the move.

I'll see you.

I bet.

I can't believe you're going so
suddenly.

Well, we arrived in a puff of smoke.

I guess that's how we're leaving.

We'll keep in touch, yeah?

Oh. Maddy, we've got to go.

Browning, don't give up on the rugby.

You're good at it, mate.

Cheers.

Get in the car, Zach.

When are you coming back?

I don't know.

Sorry it turned out like this.

What did you expect?

Look about the complaint.

I'm not going to go ahead with it.

But it doesn't change anything.

I'm assuming we all move on from this to
better.

I just keep thinking of what it must
have been like for Simon in that police

station.

Being accused of that.

And how Julie must have felt when she
found out. Hey, don't torture yourself.

I had a chance at being in a proper
family.

With good, nice people.

And I blew it.

And maybe any chance of them ever
fostering again.

Just think about what you can do to put
this right.

Because you know you can, don't you?

Listen, 250 quid a week's two day.

No, it's out of the question.

Right, Vic, how'd you get on?

Got a place at uni.

Looking back.

Was he on the phone to your dragon's
death?

I haven't sought the premises for his
business.

I've only just found out about it, mate.

And that's all? He just hasn't sorted it
yet.

Listen,

200's a good offer for that location.

I can't commit to 12 months.

Hi, Vicky McDonald, Burley Street and
Bench.

Are rates and utilities included?

No.

Well, there's no way anyone can
guarantee a profit on that basis.

If you want to lease out the property,
we want service charges and insurance

included. And I want a three -month
break closing the contract.

Final offer.

Of course.

Yeah, he'll be around all afternoon.

They'll bring you back.

Cowboys. Just need to get him on common
sense.

I'm going to miss you, Vicky McDonald.

Whatever. You'll have a right laugh.

Are you going to be OK?

Yeah, I'll probably end up skint and
working in his chip shop.

Come on, Vic, you got in.

Yeah, but it's miles away and you'll be
here and everyone will be around you.

It's hardly the big wide world, is it?

And you, everything you worked for came
good.

The rest is just money.

Oh, shut up. That's the only thing you
wake up for in the morning.

This is that.

Yeah, Ronan Burley speaking.

Yeah, that's great.

I think we can proceed on those terms.

I'll do anything I can to put this
right.

Please, ring me, just so I can apologise
to you and Simon face to face.

I was so looking forward to you hearing
me play.

Well done.

Well, just delete the message.

I would if it were me.

You don't know that.

And you had to try, though.

Look, why don't you go play with the
orchestra and find our soundchecks

the big performance?

Might take your mind off it.

Yeah, you're right.

I've let enough people down today.

Come on, then.

I know you've got a lot on your plate
today, so I passed Vicky's results on to

her. I don't think she quite got what
she was expecting.

Linda!

Linda!

Janice, could you start drafting an ad
for a new head of PE, please?

Yeah, but I hope she'd work there.

Excuse me?

Linda? Wayne Johnson is in school and
he's got Sian.

What? He just dragged her into Grantie's
classroom.

I'll be right there.

Wayne, whatever it is that you're
thinking about doing... Shut up! You're

as Byrne. You're all for it.

Here he is, zero of the hour.

Sian, are you okay?

Yes. Come to save the day.

Wayne, what are you doing here?

What do you want?

Same as you want it from me.

Maybe the truth?

An apology?

I told the truth. Look at me!

I ended up in intensive care because of
you.

If you got your way, I'd be dead by now.

What's he talking about?

Tell him, Mr Byrne.

Tell him how you threatened me.

Attacked me.

Then shoved me in front of a van.

Tell him how you left me for dead.

Like how a trash layer went up the road.
I didn't attack you or shove you in

front of a van, Sean. I didn't. You did
walk away, didn't you?

Didn't you?

Wayne, you need to calm down. Stay out
of it.

Just tell the truth.

I panicked.

I was scared.

And... Yeah, I did leave you there.

You hadn't already done me enough
damage.

I mean... I mean, you need help.

Don't make out you care.

Even this lot can see what you're really
like now.

Is that why you sent me the notes?

To unnerve me, to expose me.

Not notes. Come on, I've told you what I
did.

No secrets.

This ends here.

Right, that's your job gone, innit?
Well, I value my job, but I value my

of mind a lot more. Which is why I want
to stay in front of witnesses.

I'm sorry.

I did the wrong thing.

I was hard on you, I know that.

But you know why?

Because when I looked at you, I saw me
at your age. The anger, the aggression.

You're nothing like me. I was. So in a
way, I understand why you stabbed me.

I should have finished the job.

Is that a confession?

Come on, Wayne, you wanted the truth.

It's your turn now.

I just didn't make you stab me.

I dabbed you.

Why'd you stab me, Wynne? Michael, he's
ill.

You gave up on me.

I was struggling.

And you knew it.

You said you'd make everything okay if I
sorted my life out, but... I know.

I'm sorry for all of it.

That's why I did it.

Then my life's been crap.

If I could go back and... You don't need
to.

It's over I'm not apologising to you Not
for anything

I can't be here.

Amanda, would you wait here with him?

Get him an ambulance. He needs to get to
the hospital. Yeah, of course.

Sean, wait.

I'm sorry. I should have told you. What
happened in there was my fault. It's not

that.

Well, what?

I don't know.

Everything was so certain, and now I
don't know what's right or wrong

I don't even know who you are.

You will.

The cost is too high.

I've hurt Jez, and I've hurt the kids,
and it's so selfish.

I thought this was what I wanted. I
wanted us to be together as well, but we

can't have everything.

With us, there'd always be something.

Somewhere else we needed to be.

What's that, Sean?

Er, no.

It's a mic.

So why didn't you answer it?

Because I'm with you two.

Thank you. Thanks.

Blimey, that must have been quite an
ordeal.

Are you all right now?

Yeah, I'm fine, thank you. The kid's
unhinged.

So he admitted stabbing Michael? Did he
say why?

I don't think he thought need a reason.
One thug walks in off the street and

threatens a teacher and Byrne lets him
go scot -free. How's that protecting his

staff? Well, he saved me and Sian. Only
because that's his bit on the side. God

help the rest of us.

Those of us he's not intimate with. Just
give it a rest, Grantley, will you? Oh,

don't worry, it's all going in my
complaint.

You know, I don't think that'll be
necessary now.

Bern has damaged morale, and I have a
responsibility.

We all have a responsibility, and that's
the pride game.

So can you take your clappers down to
the hall with a minimum of fuss?

I'll stay and tally the votes, most
popular pupil and teacher.

Tom, you go down and kick things off.

I'm glad you're OK.

Daniel, you know, I think we should go
for that drink tonight.

Well, my diary is chocker, but everyone
will be out later. We could join them.

I'd like that.

Are you trying to get Michael sacked?

I am merely questioning his leadership,
not desperately sucking up to him at

every opportunity I'm on to you.

I have to say, you're more principled
than I thought.

And some might say you struck gold
getting Michael, who appreciates your

encyclopaedic knowledge and traditional
values. I mean, who knows?

You might get another head happy to
indulge your questionable commitment,

surreptitious gambling and inflated
salary.

Good luck with that.

We'll foot passengers for the 1445 to
Belfast who have already checked their

luggage. Please make their way to the
ferry for boarding.

Thank you.

I just wanted to tell you that I won't
be making any complaint.

Fantastic.

Oh, that's right.

Yes, it's me that's deserving of scorn
today, isn't it?

I'm the one who doesn't practice what he
preaches, who sits in the gloom rather

than mucking in with everyone else.

What did you say? This is you all over,
isn't it?

Oh, making all the noise about
professionalism and standards.

And then we find out the truth.

My personal life is none of your damn
business.

I have served under seven different
heads at this school.

And none of them... No, none of them
have... promised so much and

delivered so little.

Jez! Sorry, excuse me.

Dad! Jez, please! She came.

No, we're not doing this, all right?

Just hear me out.

Come on, we're going to miss the ferry.

I'm not stupid.

Dad, whatever she's done, you should at
least listen to her.

OK, guys.

How you feeling? Confident? Just exactly
as we rehearsed, OK? But the main

thing, enjoy yourself, all right? OK?
Feeling good?

All tuned up? She came.

All right?

Yeah?

Scout, where are you going? Sorry, sir,
but this is more important.

Right. Looks like we're going to have to
do it without a scout, OK?

Can you not play the guitar?

No, it's a student orchestra, all right?
You'll be fine. You'll be fine.

OK,

everyone.

Welcome to prize -giving.

Now, some of you may have noticed that
I'm not Mr Byrne.

He's currently unavoidably detained, so
you're stuck with me, I'm afraid.

So, who's glad it's the end of term?

Don't be scared.

Just go talk to her.

Go on.

I don't know what to say.

I'm sorry. I wish Simon was here. Well,
he's not.

And I don't think sorry even begins to
cover it. I wish you'd have kept my

stupid gob shut.

I know you hate me, but you and Simon,
you were always so kind to me. Look, I

can't pretend I'm not angry with you,
Scout.

Simon's going to have to move out till
they've finished this investigation of

theirs. What? Why?

He's not allowed within 100 feet of you.

But I'm not going to be there, am I?

That's up to you.

What?

You'd have me back?

When we took you on, Simon and I made a
commitment to you.

Despite what's happened, nothing you've
done today changes that.

While you're with us, we're family.

And families don't just turn their backs
on each other when someone makes them a

dick.

You were right.

I made a mistake. I couldn't see what I
had right in front of me.

Yes, you could.

It just wasn't what you wanted.

No, I was confused.

No, you weren't.

See, it was always about him.

Now, for me, when we moved here, I
thought it was for a new start.

You know, for a new beginning.

But no, you wanted to be here with him.
No, I didn't. Look, I thought it was

going to be good for us, but I panicked.

In no time at all, we got married and I
was a step -mom and I just wasn't ready.

I ran away.

I buried myself from work and Michael
got caught up in all of that. You blamed

me for all of our problems.

I know.

I'm so sorry. Nothing I did was good
enough.

I mean, I tried to be a better husband,
a better dad, but it wasn't enough

because you were lying to me about what
the real problem was. I know, and I was

wrong, but now I know that it is you
that I want.

That's why I'm here, because you, me,
Maddy and Zach, we should be together.

We're a family.

How am I going to trust you?

Look, when we got married, I believed
every single word of those vows.

And you've just made me feel like a mug
for loving you.

Jez.

I know I don't deserve it, but just give
me another chance.

Please.

Cheers.

And our first prize is for the most
enterprising student.

And the winner is the Lord Sugar of
Rochdale, Mr Ronan Burley.

Nice one, sir.

Right, I'd just like to thank you all
for being such a great set of mugs.

I mean, costumes.

No, joking aside, it's because of this
place that I now own my own business,

which I got the keys for today.

So I couldn't have done it without you.
Thank you very much.

Well done, Ronan. Well, I see your
headmaster is now free, so I'll hand you

to Mr Byrne.

Good afternoon, everyone.

Sorry I'm late.

You all know how much I hate it when
you're late.

I won't tolerate the flimsy, lame
excuses.

So why should you tolerate mine?

I was late for this because I was
clearing up one of my own mistakes.

One of many I've made this time.

Too often I've leapt to the wrong
conclusions.

Put my own ideas and needs before the
best interests of this school, its

students.

And its staff.

And for doing this, I want you all to
know that I am truly sorry.

But today should be about giving credit
where it's due, so I want to devote the

rest of this time to giving credit to
the staff.

Most of what this place is, does, and
achieves is down to them.

They deserve not only our thanks, but
our utmost respect.

The rest of the credit should really go
to you.

This is your school.

You make it what it is.

And me, I'm honoured to be a part of it.

Thank you all for giving me the
opportunity. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Well done.

No. Thank you, Tom.

This is mostly down to you.

I'd like to come back as deputy.

Give me a chance to put your name on the
door.

It would be a pleasure. Will we?

Let's get on.

Right

then.

On with the show. Vicky McDonald.

Bonjour, Vicky.

Award for academic achievement goes to
Stephen Granger. And the award for art

and design goes to Ruth Pride.

Brendan Judge.

And the award for numerical excellence
goes to Lucia Albanese.

OK, next up is the prize for best
performance in extracurricular activity.

the prize goes to Phoenix Taylor.
Phoenix.

All -rounder award for drama and music
goes to Denzel Kelly.

Well, it's the one that you lot have all
been waiting for. This is the prize for

the student of the term, as voted for by
you.

And the prize goes to... Trudy Siddiqui!

So, our final award is for the best
teacher, as voted by you.

And the winner is Miss Linda Radley.

Thank you very much. I really wasn't
expecting this. It's lovely. Thank you.

I'll hand you over now to Mr Wilding and
the Waterloo Road Band.

The way the history book comes out is
always repeating itself.

I'm waiting to be with you. Whoa, whoa,
whoa, Waterloo.

Finally facing the Waterloo.

Mama, I tried to hold you back, but you
were from there.

Oh, yes.

And now it seems my only chance is
giving up the smile.

How could I ever refuse?

I feel like I win when I lose.

And I'll get a police caution for me
because of you. You're not the only one.

Differences that I told the truth face
up to the consequences of what we did.

I'm never going to forgive you for this.

Suits me.

Does that mean you'll be free to hang
out in the holidays?

Too right.

Vicky, I've got it.

Bookkeeping software.

You need the cash, I need help with my
account. So if I employ you as my

bookkeeper, you can fit it in with your
studies.

What, are you paying me?

Well, you wouldn't do it for free, would
you? It'd be enough to cover the rent,

just about.

Just because this is the start of
something brilliant, doesn't mean...

doesn't mean that anything has to end.

All right, shall we look in the
microwave? I'm glad.

Jez, I thought you were in Ireland.

Um, no, I'm not going to go.

Me and Sian are going to try and sort
things out.

You can't just give up on it, can you?

What, does she know that you're here?

No, she thinks I'm at the gym. But I
just needed to come round and see you.

and put things right with you.

Say I'm sorry.

Shouldn't have treated you like I did.

Come on, here.

Linda.

Thought we could do with a drink.

It's been quite a day, hasn't it? It
has, so I think I'll pass.

Hey, you mustn't let this business with
Sian upset you.

If she wasn't right for you, it wouldn't
have lasted.

You need someone stronger, someone
who'll protect you, like I did today.

And what exactly did you do today?

Well, who do you think got grabbing off
your back?

Who helped you deal with that Johnson
boy who stood by you when you were

sick about those nasty little notes?

What notes?

You had a note on your car this morning.
How do you know about that?

You mentioned them when you confronted
Wayne.

But he didn't know what I was talking
about.

Obviously he was lying. Why would he do
that? He just admitted to trying to kill

me.

It was you, wasn't it?

You got access to my keys, broke into my
car, my house. Michael, no, of course I

didn't look.

Deep down, you've always known that you
and me would... I think you'd better go,

Linda. Michael, it's OK.

Sean's gone now. There's nothing to stop
us.

Get out. I take your gossiping, your
backstabbing and your pathetic attempts

gain favour with you.

If I were you, I'd start looking for
another job. No, you can't.

How can you treat me like this? After
all the...

You'll regret this.

You think you're so in control,
manipulating everyone around you, making

think you're something you're not.

Well, I know you.

Never forget that.

There's the Michael.

Oh, and Waterloo Road is back next year.
