Have you sent off your headship
application yet?

I'm not applying.

What? I'm not going to undermine
Christine.

Matthew, this is a brilliant opportunity
for me. I hope it's Mandarin.

Not too great.

I mean, Miss Boston's daughter.

Oh, no!

My neck hurts.

It has something to do with you.

What are you thinking?

A Second World War project.

I think a simple apology would do it.

I'll tell you to expect your apology.

Thank you.

George?

I'm wishing to come aboard.

A very officer and a gentleman.

Hmm? Yes, well, they played a very large
part in the Second World War, the Royal

Navy. Yeah, they did. It's just what
living history week's all about.

You were asked to make a special effort
to help in the Baines visit, so I did.

You see, I do care.

It's just a shame the feeling isn't
mutual.

George, this is serious.

I need to show Huck Bain that I can run
things better than you know who.

Better avoid my Mandarin class, isn't
it?

Don't joke.

He's very keen to see your proposal for
rolling out the programme, so make sure

you don't let me down again.

It's all right, I'm on to it.

Love to see a woman in uniform.

Or preferably out of it.

Very predictable.

Wish me luck.

This is Dee Dee in more than one.

I thought the magazines at my dentist
were out of date.

Actually, this has given me an idea on
how we can make today even more

realistic.

Live ammunition?

Morning, Simon.

Chalk's away.

Christine, you could have given me a bit
more notice about Robert Bain's visit

this afternoon.

Well, it's nothing to stress over. It's
just a flying visit.

Pardon the pun.

I thought all staff were meant to be in
costume.

Oh, now I've forgot something. Go see
Audrey.

She's readied the local Amdram store
cupboard.

Look, I only finalised Robert's visit
last night. Things had been going so

I thought, why not showcase the school?

Couldn't he have come on a regular day,
give him a truer picture?

It is a true picture.

We're an innovative school.

Are we?

Look, you have to admit, Living History
Week's been a big success, hmm?

Sure. Maybe I'm just not comfortable
jumping on Audrey's bandwagon in order

impress the council.

We can't all marry the director of
education's daughter.

Honestly, Simon, it's not bandwagon
jumping.

It might have been Audrey's idea, but it
was my call to expand it over the

entire week and involve the outside
community.

Fine. Never let it be said that I'm not
a team player.

Let's hope he gets shot down by the
Luftwaffe. I wish you'd stop winding him

I'm sorry.

But if you want this thing to run
smoothly, you really want to pull Audrey

from the front line.

The old girl's lost it with this living
history thing. I doubt we'll ever get

her back to the present.

And I think you've also gone out on a
limb, inviting the beady eye of the

council around to our little empire.

Well, like I say, it's my chance to
shine.

And if that great cynic George Windsor
is joining in, we'll be fine.

Hmm.

Let's hope so.

Are you supposed to have been injured in
the army?

No.

No, this is not part of my costume.

Maybe she's had a head transplant.

No, please.

Very funny.

Weren't you two dressed up? Oh, if mine
in my locker.

Why are you talking to her?

Because I'm sick of it just being us all
the time.

Joking.

What are they?

What they look like, Moron.

Crisps.

We're not allowed modern stuff.

It's all World War II.

Who are you?

The Rios Nati.

Oh, gosh, you look very dashing, Captain
Mosley.

Do you like my costume?

Yeah, it's lovely. Did you know your dad
was coming today?

Not until last night.

Not a problem, is it? The only problem
is, Christine never bothered to mention

it. A zero consultation is typical.

Sorry, I would have called, but I was
looking at wedding bouquets till after

midnight. I found something you were
really going for.

Why is he coming anyway?

Oh, um, well, I suppose Christine wanted
him to see his dewy connection.

She'll use it to her advantage, you know
what she's like. Don't worry, Dad'll

see right through her.

Oh, sorry, Twink, that'll be the
florist.

Hi,

Valerie.

Thanks for ringing.

Oh, no, just hang on. I just need to ask
Simon if he's happy with delphiniums.

Look,

war is about winners and losers, and
we're going to be winners.

How come?

Everyone's hacked off with these stupid
war rations. So by break time, we'll be

getting a couple of quid a bag.

What's in it for me?

Well, a little bit of extra pocket
money. Are they so cruel at that?

Okay, I'll think it over.

Well, don't take too long.

I have other options.

Like what?

Okay, how much are we talking about
here?

Well, I'm open to negotiation.

It's £35 for half an hour and it's empty
for a full... Okay.

Great. I'll see you in class, sir.

Good.

I thought Mr McFall said no make -up
today.

What? No flap for the Queen of Flaps?

Are you calling me a flapper?

Watch what you say about me sister, Kev.

No, I just meant you always, you know,
you always wear make -ups. Yes, I'm not

today. That was all right. You're a
myth.

No one cares what old people look like.

Don't worry about her myth. You know
what she's like.

I think you look great.

There you go.

Tasty.

Enjoy.

The Germans wouldn't eat this muck.

They'd be eating those massive sausages.

In Black Forest, by the door now. Will
you two just shut up about food?

Don't you have any willpower?

We never would have won the war with
losers like you.

That was a bit harsh.

Are you not eating anything?

No. I'm not hungry.

Do I look stupid dressed like this?

No. You'd look stupid if you hadn't
bothered.

And look at Miss McFall.

Now she's gone overboard.

Everyone, I have some terrible news.

HMS Victoria, which was crossing the
Atlantic with our food supplies, has

torpedoed and sunk by a German U -boat.

She's completely lost the plot. Which
means there will be no lunch and no tea

today.

It's a shame about that ship.

There is no ship.

It's just there.

She's mental.

I'm sorry.

But living history means exploring
genuine Second World War conditions.

What? It's starving to death?

Yeah, why? Which is why we are going to
do what people did during the war years.

Ordering a pizza?

No.

We are going to forage.

Now, different groups are going to be
exploring different environments.

One group might go to the seashore and
look for cockles.

Cockles.

Cockles are shellfish.

Others might go to the fields for
berries or into the woods to look for

mushrooms. But, please, please, please,
no one may pick or taste

anything without a teacher's approval.
Now, is that understood?

Epic.

I'm going to make sure we join the
woodland party. And then Mrs Budgeon.

we'll rustle up something from what
we've provided into a delicious meal.

That's right. Dump it all on Maggie.

Right, she can stop us from having
breakfast.

Please, miss, may I have some more?

Don't worry, miss. Me and Imogen won't
be cheating.

We'll do this thing properly.

I didn't know you were so into this.

I'm not.

I just want to look good for the gym
display later.

OK, everybody, back to your classes.

I like your dress. Where did you get it
from?

Me and Dennis, we went shopping last
night.

Where's yours from?

It's a real Maggie's wardrobe.

Yours is well better.

You know, war is people living right on
the edge.

Young people, like you.

And that's why their poems are so
amazing.

And truthful.

And heartbreaking.

I like your new look.

Showing your manky face to the world
isn't a look.

Yeah, but you don't have a manky face.

My people are better without make -up.

Even better.

I don't really care what you think,
Kevin.

In fact, I don't think anyone does.

Right, if you want to hear more war
poems, I'll be reading some during break

time. I'll be back for more.

Sounds good, Sam.

Look, if you want her back, you're going
to have to do something about it.

Thank you for the sarcastic intervention
earlier.

You're very welcome.

You and Christine are friends, I get
that.

But could you at least try occasionally
to see things from a professional

perspective? What, like your fiancée?

Very professional.

Tripping over her own feet and then
trying to blame the school. She could

broken her neck. And we both know whose
fault that would have been.

Problem?

Not for me, no. I think Christine might
need to watch her back today.

You'll be there to watch it far, of
course.

Yes, never the most flattering of
garments, were they?

Boiler suits?

It's two quid. What? Two pounds?

Get your crisps, Connor.

He won't want our junk food, does he?

He's a famous chef.

Oh, sorry, I mean, kitchen skivvy.

Drop dead, Barry.

You take over, yeah? What? Where are you
going?

Black market goods.

How very authentic.

Oh, thanks, miss.

To me.

Off you go.

Quick. What are you buying?

Stay up.

Eva, why don't I look after them for
you?

Make sure no one eats them.

Thank you, Sonia.

What gives him the right to criticise
me?

Nothing. Completely out of order.

He should try having a wedding dress
fitting wearing one of these.

Christine should never have made a code
deputy. The man is completely

unprofessional.

We need to make a list of all of
Christine's mistakes.

No, let's just keep our powder dry,
shall we?

And hopefully I'll get the headship
without any need for unpleasantness.

Fine, if that's the way you want to play
it, Twinkle.

Here Daddy's coming in.

Aren't you two a bit old for Parents'
Day visits?

Well, you know what they say about
Parents' Day.

It's only the naughty kids that need to
worry.

Oh, do you want a quick... No, thank
you.

Why do we have a goat, miss?

Oh, goats like Wally would have been
very useful during the war because they

provide both milk and meat.

Meat?

I hope that thing can be trusted.

Oh, yes.

Wally's very tame. I borrowed her from a
farmer friend of mine.

Is Wally not a boy's name?

She's named after Wally Sinton.

Who's he?

She? You will be learning all about her
in class very soon.

Oh, do you know what you're doing?

from the local market.

You're planting fully grown carrots?

Miss, that's cheating.

Well, yes, I know.

I'm sorry, but I wanted you to see some
reward for all your hard work.

And I hear there's a visiting dignitary,
so we want the allotment to look its

best.

Well, I suppose we could turn a blind
eye for once, and we could throw some

other real seeds as well.

I can't believe you're getting into this
gardening thing.

No, me neither.

Why are you not in costume, girls?

Mine's in my locker, miss.

Well, have a look in that chest there.
You can borrow something.

Right. There's no way I'm wearing some
old charity uniform.

Well, I'll give it a go.

That's been the beauty of this week,
hasn't it?

Not just for the academic kids. I wish
I'd lived in them days, miss.

No fizzy drinks, no sweets.

And no crisps.

Music to my ears.

We see him almost with content, abased
and seeming to have paid and mocked at

his own equipment.

Anyone who can get that lot to sit and
listen to poetry during their break has

got to have the gift.

They're very responsible kids.

Can you do it long ahead?

No, not at all.

I just hope he's going to pull out all
the stops today for this visit. I'm sure

he will.

For here, the lover and killer are
mingled.

who had one body and one heart, and
death, who had the soldier singled, had

the lover mortal hurt.

Keith Douglas.

If you want to read more of his work,
I'm afraid you can't, because he was

killed in action on June 9th, 1944.

He was 24 years old when he died.

Life can be a lot shorter than we
expect.

Let's leave it there for now.

What do you think?

All this stuff about life being short.

Do you think I'll be in so hard on
Kevin?

No. You don't, do you?

I wish you could still be me.

I got nabbed by Mad McFarlane.

She thought I went on about the black
market or something.

She's well racist.

Anyway, she confiscated the crisps.

So you can owe me.

It wasn't my fault. She took them.

Shut up.

And check this out.

What is it?

Magic mushrooms.

We're going to pick some in the woods.

Isn't that illegal?

Well, cute dress in the war in them
days.

Mr. McFall said the average waist size
during the war were like 21 inches.

Yeah, but that's because the food was
rationed. I mean, who'd want to go

that? No, thanks.

Well, we won the war, actually, so it
didn't do them any harm.

I'm going to need your help, mate.

Operation Dynasty.

What are you on about?

A secret mission.

Quick, you know.

You going on the trip?

Yeah, it'll be fun.

Well, my miss, you can tear yourself
away from your precious kitchen.

Well, at least if I'm there, I can make
sure we bring back stuff that Mrs.

Budgeon can actually use.

Right.

Now, Are you sure you can manage without
me until lunchtime?

I've managed on my own for long enough.

Yeah, but you had Mr... Oh, it's OK.

You can say the name, you know.

You had Mr Budgie.

Hmm.

And he was as much use to me in the
kitchen as the chocolate sauce, then.

Go on, have fun.

All right.

Seashore, line up in front of me here.

Hedgerows here.

Woodlands with Mr Loseley. Line up
behind, please.

All those who haven't dressed up can
come and get something from me now.

Ah, can I remind you that you'll be
representing the school, so please

yourself properly.

That means staying with your group
leaders and following their instruction

the letter.

Jawohl, mein Kommandant.

Enjoy yourselves and successful
foraging.

Please don't undermine me in front of
the pupils.

Hey.

Horrigan. Not mucking around.

Gross. There's no way that's edible.

Get away from me!

Miss, is this a muscle or a cockle?

Neither. It's a limpet.

It's really hard to get off the rocks.

It's stuck on like... Like a... Limpets?

Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know how we're going to cook
these, though. Well, that's a challenge

Mrs Budgin.

Isn't this a good chance to call Eve?

You just don't give up, do you?

Nope. I'm like one of these limber
things.

Well, I'm sorry, Casey, but can we just
drop it, please?

Miss! I found something disgusting!

What have you got? A crab?

Not exactly.

It's a tampon. Oh.

Nice.

Nature!

You know what? You lot are really
privileged to be out here, so make the

it. Oh, we will, sir.

OK,

guys, stay close, yeah? And remember to
check with me before you pick anything.

OK. I think I'm ready.

Do you know what you're doing?

I have my orders.

OK. I found this in Miss McFaul's fancy
dress box.

What do you think?

That's him.

OK. Come.

What happened to Kevin and Connor?

Jamie Oliver said something about well
garlic.

Ah, ah, ah, ah!

No eating those berries till they've
been cleaned and checked, please.

It's just a berry, Rhiannon.

Not even one calorie?

Nah, looks sour.

And so do you, actually. You're missing
Kevin.

No, she's not.

Hey!

Ah, Sam.

Be sweet.

How do I know they're not poisonous?

Shrooms are good for you.

Them little fellas in the Amazon pop
them all the time.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, I've seen them on the tilly.
They're out hunting for sloths, don't

It's OK.

I won't let them get you.

You first.

Nah, you.

I'll eat mine later.

Aw. Is little Darwin scared?

You chicken.

Don't feel any different?

Well, you've just let them, you muppy.

You need to wait a while.

Don't worry.

I'll kick them soon enough.

Guys, hello?

Barry?

Darren, where are you?

Good job I never wore any mascara.

OK, everyone, I think it's time we were
heading back.

Er, there are a couple of people
missing.

Who, Kevin and Connor?

And Dynasty?

OK, follow me and stick together,
please.

Hold on.

What? We don't want Lowsley nosing
around our stash. Hey, he'll probably

some for himself.

Grab those nettles and put them on top.

They sting.

That's the whole point, you loser.

Come on.

More than that, we haven't got all day.

Why did we ever break up?

Because you finished with me.

You're supposed to make the person
you're with feel special.

You made me feel like I wasn't good
enough.

That was a mistake.

A big mistake.

And I'll never do anything like that to
hurt you again.

Mr. Loseley, you got to suppose, made me
think about me and you.

What did you decide?

That it was worth giving it one last go.

If you cared about me, Kevin.

I mean, really cared about me.

I do.

I really do.

I love you.

Oh, not much evidence of foraging here.

Dead romantic.

Well, I suppose love affairs did spring
up during the war.

You don't get back with someone just
because they've planned a picnic?

Come on.

How many guys would do that for a girl?

Can we not just be happy for them?

I suppose it is a pretty good picnic.

Oh, all right.

One flight each, and then we head home.
And if anybody asks, it never happens.

Where the heck have you been?

We've been busy.

Yeah, that's unlikely.

What have you got in there? Let me see.
All right, Captain.

But it might explode.

You all right, Darren?

It's just been out of nature, sir.

She's not used to it.

There's nothing in there, sir.

Nettles?

Oh, you might have said.

Tell you what, we can use those to make
soup.

I call that a good day's work, don't
you? Come on, let's join the group.

Hey.

Why are them trees falling?

Keep up.

Hey, look for her.

What's she doing?

She's checking for black market goods.

This is your fault for getting caught.

But we can't let her confiscate our
stash.

Maybe we should eat them all now, eh?
What?

Don't be dumb.

We need to find a hide and drink.

I'm on it.

Night, bye.

Night, bye, go.

Yeah, clear it off. Be gone.

And quit snooping on people.

How many of them have you had?

Not many.

Oh, how was your waste of time walking
the wilderness?

Actually, it was great.

Really? Yeah.

Maybe Christine does know what she's
doing.

I've just come back from the woods with
Barry Barry, of all people. He's been

collecting nettles to make soup.

Unbelievable.

Well... That went down to her. That's
because the kids respect you.

Great.

I've never known Windsor to work on his
lunch break.

Me neither.

I think I've left my purse. I'll catch
you up.

Even Heston Bloom and Musty's face
couldn't do anything with this lot.

The kids are going to be starving by the
time I get lunch ready.

And that Mr Bain, he's going to be
tipping up any minute expecting his

Right, OK. What about a seafood nettle
curry with... and

seaweed badges?

OK.

Do you think I'm wasting my time doing
this?

Catering, I mean. No, I don't.

Is this because of what your man said?

Yeah.

That and wondering how I'm going to feel
when everyone else goes off to

university and I'm stuck chopping
carrots.

You won't be.

Graduates are ten a penny these days.
Now, a smart lad.

Who can run a kitchen?

Gold dust.

No. No.

It's not in the second tone. It's in the
third tone.

I can't believe I'm paying you so I can
ask whether or not I need an umbrella.

Actually, you're asking if you need a
fish.

Just vocabulary, sir.

No one's going to believe you're fluent
in Mandarin if you can't pronounce it

properly. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. Get on.

Okay, now we're going to...

I'm

sorry, but we have had some issues with
black market goods.

Robert, glad you could make it.
Christine, happy to oblige. This is very

impressive, you joining in on me in the
costume.

Yeah, well, I thought if I make a fool
of myself, everyone else will have to. I

feel like I'm letting the side down.

Oh, no, no, not at all, not at all.

Was there a problem, Miss McFarlane?

Just a full -body search to make sure I
wasn't bringing in contraband.

He's clean. Good, good.

Well, let's start with our thrift store,
Waterloo Junction.

Welcome to 1944, on the home front where
our civilians fight just as hard as the

army. Only here, the fight's against
waste.

Maybe we should move on, there's a lot
to cram into this.

We haven't finished yet.

Some commodities are in short supply,
such as blankets, bottles, drinking

glasses, bed sheets and towels.

I could do with a towel myself at the
moment.

Dad. Is that lad all right?

Yeah, yeah, he's fine.

I'll take Dad, Mr Bain, and get him
cleaned up. Thank you, Miss Mark. I'll

you in the cell room in two minutes once
I've attended to Darren.

Darren, were you and Barry in Mr
Loseley's group?

Have you finished?

Doesn't Christine look fetching in that
uniform?

You think so?

I thought she looked rather dowdy, all
that khaki. Oh, well, she certainly

to be on the ball.

I'll tell you what, Dad.

And why don't I take you up to Modern
Languages?

Show you the Mandarin initiative in
action.

Well, I shouldn't be away for Christy.

No. It'll only be a few minutes.

Darren and Barry.

Both. Hiya, Kate.

I don't understand. They were with me,
picking nettles. For the whole time?

They might have wandered off for a
couple of minutes.

Ten at most. Look, they were fine when I
left them.

Well, they're not fine now.

Far from it.

I put them in the nursery's room. Could
you go there and find out how they got

in such a state?

I am in the middle of showing your
future father -in -law around.

Funny how this happens today of all
days.

Ah, right, so I engineered this whole
thing, did I, to make you look bad?

No, of course not.

Go and cut them out.

Thank you.

It's Mr Windsor, our Mandarin expert.

The Huan Ying Guan Lin, Waterloo Road.

I'm not going to pretend I've listed a
word of that, except for the bit about

Waterloo Road. Oh, that's a shame.

Archie Wong seems to have vanished.

He's one of Mr Windsor's star pupils.

Ah. Very smart. An officer and a
gentleman.

I like to think so.

Love lifts us up where we belong.

Pardon?

From the movie.

It's one of Sue's favourites. Dad.

Oh, I'm afraid I've never seen it.

So, where would you like to start?

Well, how about how many A grades you
predict?

Well, we are making solid progress.

If you ever need to ask for an umbrella
in Mandarin, Dad, Mr Windsor's your man.

What's it like having a new daughter?

Look, I know it's not easy getting an
instant family.

Look at me and Grantley.

You two are naturals.

What, me and Grantley?

Are you having a laugh?

There's no such thing as a natural.

And don't let anybody tell you
otherwise.

Thought I'd lost you.

You don't get rid of me that easily.

I thought Dad would like to see exactly
what's going on up here.

Well, that's very kind of you, Miss
Brack.

This is Archie Wong, one of our star
pupils. He's taking a few snaps of this

week's events for our website. Yes, I've
been hearing a lot about you.

Well, I have to say, the Mandarin
programme here sounds very promising.

It does?

We've put you under a lot of pressure,
asking Waterloo Road to help roll

Mandarin out across the LA.

But Mr Windsor and his department have
certainly stepped up to the plate.

Would it be possible to grab a copy of
that proposal now?

No.

I've got to find out some details.

I'll make sure you get one later.

Have you seen Simon?

No, sorry.

That's strange.

Now you want it to be part of the tour.

Well, there is a war on. It's all a bit
chaotic. In a good way, of course.

I'm sure he'll turn up.

Shall we continue?

Are you joining us, Mr Windsor?

I wouldn't want to get in the way.

Nonsense. I'm sure there's room for one
more.

See you later.

Yes, then.

Thanks again, Mr Mack.

Look, can you stop playing games? If
you've taken something, you need to tell

me. Just tell him. I don't want to.

Look,

this is for your own good, all right?

If you'd taken something poisonous, you
could die, you idiot.

I took some dreams.

In the woods.

What?

Oh, great.

These outfits are mingy.

You're the one that wanted realism.

Are you OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Maybe you should have a little snack or
something.

Nah.

After Mr Budgin died, I kind of went on
a food binge and this wore stuff to my

chance to start eating properly again.

Okay. That's for sure.

Yeah, quit flapping.

So you and Kev back on then?

Let's just say we'd realise we couldn't
be apart.

So why the sad face?

What happens when he goes to uni in
America?

You might know.

It's Kevin. Of course you will.

So go with him.

It's not as simple as that, is it?

I mean, what's the odds of us two
getting into the same uni?

I'll get a job, I suppose.

You can't just get a job in America.

It's dead strict.

Well, even if it is, it'll be tough, you
know.

I'd have no friends, no family. You'll
make new friends.

Or you could ask Kevin to change his
plans.

I'd love to do that.

Why not?

He doesn't love me.

And I don't want to be the one to ruin
his future.

We do want the white line.

Nicky, you know we've got this visit
today.

Well, I'd like to be there, only I've
got these two kids that need to go to

hospital.

I'll cope.

Okay, who is this?

Darren Hughes and Barry Barry.

I can see why you're so keen to offload.

What's happened this time?

Ingesting hallucinogenics in the woods.

Excuse me?

Yeah, magic mushrooms. Or at least they
thought they were. Look, they're

probably going to be fine, but can you
just keep me posted on what the hospital

say? Yeah.

Thanks. You're a pal.

I owe you.

Be like Broderick.

Come on, just a couple more of Mr Bean
and I.

No, someone's ruined the carrot patch.

Where's Wally?

A resident goat. I'm sorry about this.
Oh, I don't apologise.

It's good the kids have got a stake in
the project.

Maybe she's run away.

She didn't seem very happy.

Such as a lot of the school girls.

Don't worry, Lenny, we'll get a search
party organised.

We need to find her.

Um, I think it's time we visited the
dining hall.

Is it not enough that you get yourself
into trouble, that you have to lead him

astray?

Right, we'll see what the hospital's got
to say, but this might be a matter for

the police, Barry.

We were taken from the land, miss.

They've missed what Fowler wanted us to
do, to win the war.

But then poor Dad's got a bit confused.

Just shut up, Barry.

Wally!

Wally!

Conor, my son, has been helping out. Oh,
vocational training.

We like that.

Oh, I'm still hoping you'll go down a
more academic route.

Ah, you see, you say that, but don't
some of these celebrity chefs earn a lot

money? Yeah, and they're doing something
that they love.

He has been brilliant today, this fella.

Go on, let them have a taste.

Now, he came up with these all off his
own bat.

Seaweed badger.

That's very good. Is that really
seaweed?

Yeah, fresh off the beach today.

Oh, it's restaurant standard, that is.

Excuse me.

Simon, can I see you in my office?

Mr Windsor, you want to try something?

So, you got Nicky to take Darren and
Barry to hospital?

Yeah.

Do we know what happened?

It was mushrooms.

Look, they deliberately went out of
their way to find them. Yeah, I'm sure.

But you were supposed to be supervising.
Yeah, supervising.

Not 24 -hour surveillance.

I trusted them. They betrayed my trust.

It's them you should be having a go at,
not me. Oh, don't worry, I will.

Only first, I've got to call the
parents, unless you'd like to.

If word gets out about this, goodbye to
all the hard work I've put in this week.

You're not the only one who's worked
hard.

That's not what I meant.

Really? Because you seem more worried
about how this looks than in supporting

me. Simon, that is so unreasonable.

It was you who let the meat mushrooms
unsupervised you.

But don't worry, I won't say anything to
your future father -in -law.

No?

Goodness, Lotta, I'd like to tell him.

Feel free.

I think Robert can see what a good job
I'm doing here.

Wally!

It's only a goat, Lenny.

Mushrooms? Probably give those to Mrs
Budgey.

Nice one.

So, she blamed you for what Barry Barry
did?

Practically accused me of engineering it
deliberately.

So much for solidarity.

Oh, well, I did warn you.

Oh, I haven't told you my news.

Oh, I'm not in the mood for delphiniums.
It's not that. Although I have had a

breakthrough on the canapé front.

George Hunza... is a fake.

He can't even speak Mandarin properly.

No, that's not right. He's been teaching
it all term.

I caught him.

He's been paying Archie Wong for that.

What?

Does Christine know about this?

Because if she does, it compromises our
whole position.

What happened to keeping your powder
dry?

Stuff that. She never supported me, so
why should I lift a finger to help her?

Here is a list of all our grievances.

Leaning debacle, hiring a teacher that's
unqualified in a core subject.

You know what? I didn't want to go down
this road, but she's left us with no

choice.

And one, two, three, four.

Two, three, three, four.

Three, two, three, four.

Four, two, three, four.

Five, two, three, four. Six, two, three.

She's out cold, we need help

Yes, Angela, please.

This is my fault. I worked her too hard.
I had no idea that level of excellence

would harm anyone.

I think she's been fasting as well.

Fasting?

She got a bit carried away with people
not eating during the war.

To experience wartime conditions, we
suggested they only eat what they'd

foraged.

Will she be OK?

Oh, yes, she'll be fine. She just needs
to see a doctor.

Sonia, go and let Maggie know what's
happened and please make sure all the

pupils have something to eat and drink.

Bit of an emergency.

Rhiannon's collapsed.

Rhiannon? Is she OK?

Turns out she hasn't eaten because of
this war thing. So please can you get

proper food on the go?

Proper food?

Yeah, not this water.

Finally.

Here, use these mushrooms.

Excellent. Leave that gaping to me.
They're from the allotment.

Mushroom omelette.

What a good idea.

I'll go and send the kids along.

I can only apologise, Robert. I just
don't know how this happened.

That's why you learn a lot about people
in these situations.

Yes, I should have kept a closer eye on
Miss McFall. I never imagined her scheme

would endanger the children.

Well, the main thing now is to make sure
that young girl is OK.

Yes, of course.

The paramedic is with Rhiannon now. I'd
like to grab a quick word with my

daughter, if that's OK with you.

And hopefully that's the end of today's
dramas.

Thank

you

very much. Bye -bye.

Apparently, your blood sugar was very
low, which is why you fainted. Your body

doesn't like extremes.

I know.

I kind of haven't been eating anything
all week.

Oh, Rhiannon.

And that medic guy said that if I
overeat, then I can get diabetes.

So what we want is sensible, regular
meals from now on, OK?

Don't worry.

I've got the message.

I think I just overdid it.

We're all guilty of that sometimes.

Have you seen... All right.

Just take it away, yeah?

Come on.

Rhiannon's on the mend. Now let's
concentrate on making sure no one else

collapses. We've already started. We're
serving mushroom omelette.

Mushroom?

What mushrooms?

From the allotment.

Don't eat anything!

Not Black Market.

Have you swallowed any of this?

I've had luck.

Maggie, get ready. What's going on?
Can't I just eat the chip?

No!

Christine, can I ask you something?

Are you aware that George Winder isn't
qualified to teach Mandarin?

Thought so.

My future father -in -law would like a
word.

Ah,

good. Now perhaps someone can tell me
what this is all about.

Well, I'm sorry to spring this on you,
Robert, but it's all in there.

You sure about this? You want to make a
formal complaint?

Yeah.

She's victimised certain staff.

What? As well as using pupils as cheap
labour.

Which caused my accident.

Not to mention employing a Mandarin
teacher with no professional

George Windsor.

I know who he is, so there's better be
some mistake, because I do not

being sold a load of bull.

Today's been really good.

Have the school get medical treatment,
you mean? Apart from that.

I mean, the cooking thing.

I don't care what my mum thinks. It's
what I want to do.

Told you.

You'll be brilliant.

Thanks.

It's going to be hard for us when you go
to uni in America.

Well, it's too late to change plans now.

I've already bought my cowboy hat.

I haven't applied to any American uni,
and I won't be.

Are you serious?

Yeah. There's courses here that are just
as good, and we want to go to the same

place. Don't we?

Then... Hmm.

Sue, it may be better if I support the
same than Christian alone.

No problem.

I wish Sam had come to me first.

Well, clearly he felt he couldn't.

I thought we had a good working
relationship.

I don't know how you can think that. All
right, let's not get into my slamming

match. Fair enough, but I totally refute
everything Simon is saying. I can go

through it point by point.

There has been no victimisation. Come
off it, Chrissie. I have a very happy

staff room. Yeah, except some of the
staff aren't qualified to be here.

George Windsor is a fully qualified
modern languages teacher who has lived

worked in China for many years. His wife
is Chinese.

Ex -wife.

His coursework will need independent
scrutiny.

I am hugely disappointed with what I've
heard today from both of you.

I don't think that's very fair. One of
the things I always admired about the

was the concept of courage under fire.

Sorry, Robert, you've lost me there.

Leadership is about taking
responsibility.

You both want the top job at Waterloo
Road.

When things get tough, how have you
reacted?

I brought my concerns about Christine
straight to you. Which are totally

unfounded.

I'm sorry, but it's Simon who has
doctor's responsibilities today.

Blaming other people isn't leadership.

The only one who took it on the chin
today was Audrey McFaul. She made a

mistake, she accepted the consequences.

Now, you two might think you're the only
ones in the running for this job, but

let me tell you, you're not.

Especially after today's performance.

That is the last time I take you on a
bench press.

I know you told me to book out, but can
I just say one thing?

No. If I was ever ill like that stupid
brother of mine, I'd want my mum to be

there for me.

And I'm sure Eve would feel the same
way.

I don't think she would.

All I'm saying is, at least give her the
option.

That's all.

God, what a mess.

And what's Mandarin Expert going to say
when he looks at your work?

I don't know.

Nothing, probably.

Just think I'm a bit disorganised.

Anyway, Bain likes you.

He'll be on your side.

You don't hear what he said.

No, I've flown it with him.

Big time.

Not necessarily.

Why don't we go down to the pub?

You can tell me all about it then.

I've seen enough of this place for one
day.

Hmm?

OK.

But only if you lose the Richard Gere.

Gere?

Who?

I heard it was you who found her, Lenny.
Well done.

You can tether her here.

How is she?

Rhiannon, I mean?

Yes, she's fine. She's asleep in bed.

And what a day.

A peace offering.

And a thank you for all your hard work
this week.

I've put you under a lot of pressure.

Hmm. 1945 vintage, is it? We can forget
all that now. For me, the war is over.

It doesn't need a corkscrew.

I'll get the glasses.

OK.

Don't worry. I'll come back and say bye
-bye.

Oh, I feel like downing a bottle of red
tonight.

Drink to that.

But that would be letting Simon win.

I'm not going to fall out with him,
though.

Maybe Robert's right. We need to resolve
this without it becoming personal.

Christine certainly didn't have a good
wall, did she?

No. But you know what? Neither did I.

Or your dad.

I think we need to cool it.

Suits me. There is a certain big day to
plan.

Oh, we need to have a serious talk about
kilts.

Kilts? Well, we do live in Scotland now.

Oh, God.

Going anywhere nice?

Bet it won't be as nice as dinner with
my dad.

Come on, Simon.

Mushroom risotto, is it, Simon?

You know, when I get this job, and I
will get it,

Those two will be history.

This is Frankie McGregor, our supply
teacher for science.

Miss Bard said quietly.

Quiet! We are going down the mall at
lunchtime. Me and Shaz are going to neck

make -up. And it's good only.

I can teach you how to tie a flight or
line.

We're not real flies, are we? I'm doing
something most lunchy anyway. Let me

guess. Hanging out by yourself.

No, I'm going fishing with Mr McGregor.
Oh, I can't believe it. I'm just being

made up for it.

Mike Casey, boxing with an Olympic
champion.

What? Nicola Raddick!

I won't believe it.

We have worked too hard for you to
suddenly turn around and say you don't

it. It seems like it's been more your
dream than mine.
