- You really wanna make a
difference,

you'd do something about him.

- Once they see I'm not
scared of him, of anyone,

it'll be okay.

- I'm wanting to know
about Patrick Coburn?

- Coburn is a villain and always
will be.

- I need a new second in
command, how are you fixed?

- I wasn't scared for me!

- Who were you scared for then?

Your friend?

- You might scare off little
girls,

but you don't scare me.

- Hello.

My name's Louise, I'm from
the Liverpool Mercury.

I'm writing a piece about the
new Public Justice Centre.

Have you heard about it?

Did you know that the judge from
there

was brought up in this house?

Hi, I'm Louise Scanlon,

I'm writing a story about Judge
Coburn.

Hi, my name's Louise, I'm
from the Liverpool Mercury.

- What?

The Prime Minister doesn't
earn that much in a day.

At least Dick Turpin had the
decency to wear a bloody mask.

- You wanna lay off the wacky
backy, lad.

Bit early for you, innit?

- I couldn't sleep, I'm
in court today, aren't I?

Then you've got nothing to worry
about.

- They could send me down.

- 20 quid says the only
place they'll be sending you

is down the canal picking up
litter.

Oh, get a load of them.

- Bit young for you, aren't
they?

- Trust me, lad, girls that age,

they're not interested in little
boys, they want a real man.

- She looks like she could
pop any second, poor cow!

- And I've heard the
Dad doesn't wanna know.

They're all the same,

they have their wicked way

and then you don't see them for
dust.

When'd you get that?

- It's on contract, I'm
working now, aren't I?

- Paying glass collectors
a lot these days?

- He got you it, didn't he?
- No!

- No worries, thanks anyway.

Hello, I'm Louise.

- I know why you're here,
you'd better come in.

Now I hope you're not in a
hurry,

because I've got to
get a lot off my chest.

Now, how would you like to see
that,

when you look out of the window?

Sometimes I don't even
bother to open the curtains.

Now, what are you going to do
about it?

- Sorry?

- Well, you are from
the council, aren't you?

- Peter Catley's
solicitor is running late.

- Who's representing him?

- Indira Cave from Willis, Cave
and Moses.

- Oh, I saw her in Asda on
Saturday,

she introduced me to her
husband,

I'd always had her down as a
lesbian.

- I'd always had her down as
more of a Sainsbury's type.

- What's he up for this time?

- Discovered to be carrying
a grand's worth of cocaine

after an internal examination by
police.

- Ooh, just say no.

- Delivery for Judge Coburn.

- Very nice.

- Would somebody like
to explain this, please?

- It's only an educated guess,

but I'd say it was some kind of
box.

- I'm really not in the mood.

- This must have cost a bob or
two.

- That won't last five
minutes around here.

- I just want the person
who stole me Danish pastries

to have the guts to own up.

- Come on, it's hardly a
matter of life or death, is it?

- Oh, actually it is,

'cause I'm borderline
type two diabetic, okay.

- Borderline hypochondriac more
like.

- You're really giving the
Chelsea Tractor a rest?

- You don't expect me to
connect with this community

from behind tinted windows, do
you?

- Someone got out of the wrong
side of bed this morning.

What's the matter with you?

- Boiler exploded, starting the
day

with a freezing cold shower
isn't my idea of fun.

Ooh!

- Oh, thank you.

- I never thought I'd see the
day

I'd have a reporter from
the Liverpool Mercury

sitting in my living room.

- So how long have you
lived in the street for?

- Oh, our Betty was one
year old when we moved in

and that was 1952,

so how long's that?

- It's coming up for 60 years.

So you must remember the Coburn
family

living across the road?

- Well, my memory's
not what it used to be,

but I'll never forget Paddy
Coburn

swanning up and down the street
with that daft hat of his.

- And how do you feel
about him coming back

to work at the Public Justice
Centre?

Do you think it'll benefit
the local community?

- Let's be honest, Paddy
Coburn turned his back on us

the first chance he got
and he's never looked back.

- Terribly sorry.

- You wanna get some
stabilisers for that thing.

- Yes, please?

Mind if I join you?

- No.

- Kelly, isn't it?

Peter's Mum?

I'm very disappointed
he's back here so soon.

- Not as disappointed as me.

I really believed he'd started
to turn his life around

and then about six months ago,

this girl started spreading
rumours he'd got her pregnant,

she's only 16, he swears
blind it's not his.

- And you believe him?

- I'm a single Mum myself,
he knows how I've struggled.

There is no way he'd put
another woman through that.

And then he started knocking
around

with so called mates off
the Glenfield Estate.

I've tried to stop him going
down there, but he's 18,

what am I supposed to
do, lock him in his room?

Does his Dad
have any contact with him?

Don't even go there.

We've never had as much
as that out of him.

- Could you stand up straight,
please?

- Can you tell the Judge
your name, date of birth

and address, please?

- Peter Catley, 29 Frensham
Street, Dovefield, L5 3CC.

6th of June, 1993.

- Right, sit down then, Peter,
thank you.

- Mr. Catley was brought
into police custody

on the 15th of this
month and was discovered

to be carrying a significant
amount of cocaine.

Initially Mr. Catley claimed

that the drugs were for
his own personal use,

but after further questioning

confessed his intention to
supply.

Mr. Catley was also
under a supervision order

at the time of his arrest
due to a previous charge

of possession of a Class B drug.

- Yes, I remember.

- I would just like to add

that Mr. Catley has pleaded
guilty to the charges

and is very remorseful.

He deeply regrets the
embarrassment and suffering

he's caused to his family,
in particular his mother,

who is here to support him
today.

- It has to be said that
those sentiments expressed

do have a whiff of deja vu about
them.

- If I may, Your Honour,
I'd like to point out

that my client's
circumstances have changed

since he last appeared before
you.

He has admitted to becoming
increasingly dependent

on cocaine and marijuana in
recent months

and claims he only
resorted to selling drugs

to fund his own habit.

In light of this I would
ask you to consider a DRR

as part of any sentence
you may deem appropriate.

- Stand up, please.

Your solicitor mentioned a DRR,

do you understand what that
means?

It's a Drug Rehabilitation
Requirement,

do you feel that's something
that might benefit you?

I have decided to temporarily
adjourn proceedings

on condition that you agree to
speak

to one of our drugs advisors
today.

I can't see the problem

with us reconvening at
the same time tomorrow.

Mr. Catley, you don't have
to walk far around here

to see the misery that illegal
drugs cause

in this community.

I must warn you that the
maximum custodial sentence

is looking like the most
likely option available to me.

- Really lovely meeting
you, thank you so much.

- I felt really sorry for
him when his Dad passed away.

- How old would he have been
then?

- 15, 16, can't be sure.

- So he was living over there on
his own?

- No, no, local priest took him
in.

- Father Jim?

- Yeah, do you know him?

- We've met, yeah.
- Oh.

Paddy was an altar boy
from when he was knee high.

They were always very close.

- Well, it's been lovely, thank
you.

- Alright.

Alright.

- You here to see the drugs
advisor?

- I am the drugs advisor,
do you wanna come through?

Have a seat.

Okay, first things first,

are you here 'cause you wanna be
here

or 'cause you've got to be here?

- I haven't got a problem,
if that's what you're asking.

- So you don't consider being up
in court

twice in a month for
drugs offences a problem?

- I smoke a bit of weed, big
deal.

- Yeah, but that's not
all you take, is it?

- No, but I could stop whenever
I wanted.

- So why don't you then?
- Because I don't need to,

I've just told you, I
haven't got a problem.

What would you know anyway?

- Maybe not that much, I
was a junkie for 12 years.

So you see, all this,
I've been there, done it,

I've made my pact with the
Devil.

- I'm not that bad.

- But you've admitted selling
to support your own habit.

Look, I got a chance to turn
my life around and I took it.

So are you ready to take yours?

- Excuse me, would you mind
giving us a couple of minutes?

- Yep, sure, no probs.

- Thanks.

I had a chat with your Mum
earlier,

she's out of her mind with
worry.

She seems to think you only
started going off the rails

about six months ago.

Can you think of any
reason why that might be?

What about this girl she
mentioned?

- What girl?

- The girl who claims
she's having your baby.

- I can't believe she told you
that.

- So is it true?
- Of course it's not,

she's a complete psycho.

- Who, your Mum?

- No, this girl.

- What's her name?

- Jessica, Jessica Stewart.

I only had a one night stand
with her

and she's going round telling
everyone she's having my kid.

- Only takes a one night stand.

- Yeah, but I wasn't the only
one,

she's been with nearly every
lad on the Glenfield Estate,

ask anyone.

- Obviously didn't put you off.

- I don't even wanna talk about
it,

it's got nothing to do with me.

- What's the penance for lying
these days?

Three Hail Marys and an Our
Father?

You told me you couldn't
remember Paddy Coburn,

then I discovered he
used to live with you.

It strikes me a bit odd,

you'd forget something so
significant.

- It was 40 years ago.

- The church is hardly
famed for its transparency,

but that's ridiculous.

- Listen,

I gave shelter to a young man,
who'd lost both his parents.

Shock, horror, priest helps
parishioner,

there's a headline that should
fly off the shelves for you.

- Jessica?

Jessica Stewart?

- Pint of lager, please love?

So who are we gossiping about
now then?

- Three guesses.

- Apparently he fled this
area when he was a teenager,

never said goodbye to a single
soul.

- Packed his bags in the small
hours never to be seen again?

- Like a thief in the night.

- You know, spreading malicious
gossip

about the Judge's private life

isn't gonna benefit any of us.

- But he plays his cards
so close to his chest,

he leaves himself wide
open to speculation.

Anyway I wonder why he never
married.

- Maybe he bats for the other
side.

- Now that opens up a
whole new can of worms.

- Choir boy, never married,
shacked up with priest.

- Doesn't take Carol
Vorderman to do the maths, eh?

And no self respecting straight
man

would ever be seen dead
in a hat like that.

- So much for team spirit, eh?

So where did you get
all this rubbish anyway?

I didn't know this was your
local?

- I just happened to be in the
area.

- So you thought you'd just turn
up

and spread a bit of malicious
gossip amongst my staff?

- Believe me, any stories
about Judge Coburn

have been doing the rounds a
long time.

- I'm sure you're determined
to dredge them all up,

no matter how irrelevant they
may be.

- How much do you actually know
about him?

- Well, I know he's a
decent, hard working man,

who cares passionately
about this community.

What's so funny?

- You should try telling
that to his old neighbours.

- Peter insists he's not the
father.

- It must be an immaculate
conception then.

- He said it was just a one
night stand.

- So how do you explain that?

I was with him for nearly three
months,

but once he found out I was
pregnant, it all changed.

He wanted me to get rid of it,

but there was just no way I
could do that!

That's when he started
spreading all the rumours,

that I'd been sleeping around.

I swear on my family's life,

that he's the only person
I've ever been with.

- I believe you.

Have your family been
supportive?

- My Mum's been brilliant,

she said she'd help out with the
baby,

so I can stay on at school.

- Good for you.

- Just because I'm gonna be a
single Mum,

it doesn't mean I can't
make something of my life!

As far as I'm concerned,

you can lock him up
and throw away the key.

- Come in.

Everything alright?

- That reporter's been
hanging round again.

Look, I need to know

that you've been completely
straight with me.

I'm the one who's out
there vouching for you,

if you've got anything to hide,

it's my credibility that's on
the line.

- She'll get bored.

- I only wish I had your
confidence.

You know, she's spent the entire
morning

talking to your old neighbours?

She's running a story in the
morning about some old woman,

whose life's been made
a misery by fly-tipping.

- Is that really the best she
can do?

- It doesn't look very good,
does it,

if your old neighbours are
portrayed

to be living in abject misery,

while you're here living the
high life?

- So that's what you call all
this, eh?

- Look,

I just think this one's
really got it in for you,

so if you do have any skeletons
lurking in the cupboard,

I suggest you bring them out
now,

before she does it for you.

- Maybe you're right.

Maybe.

Ask her to meet me in my old
street

tomorrow morning, eight o'clock
sharp

and tell her to bring a
photographer with her.

- A photographer, why?

- If she wants a bloody
exclusive,

she can have one.

Sorry to interrupt, lads,
any chance of a word?

I saw Jessica this afternoon.

See there's one thing I don't
get,

what a nice girl like her would
ever see

in a lying little toe rag like
yourself.

She told me a very
different version of events.

Being a real man isn't
hanging about street corners

with your friends, acting hard,

it's about taking
responsibility for your actions.

You can go to the ends of the
Earth,

but this isn't going away.

It doesn't matter if
you don't love Jessica,

that doesn't stop you loving
your baby,

being a good Dad.

You see this is a chance to
start again,

go to college, get yourself a
trade,

be someone your child can
look up to, be proud of.

You make the wrong choice now

and you'll have the rest
of your life to regret it,

believe me.

Believe me.

Oh, oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!
Right, right.

Come on.

- Argh!
- You're nearly there.

- Nearly there.
- Oh, oh!

- Alright, hold on.

- Argh!
- You're alright, darling.

What's going on?

- I'm going.

- Where?
- Anywhere.

- I know how scared you
must be about tomorrow,

but doing a bunk is just gonna
make things

a million times worse.

- It's got nothing to do with
that.

I've lied to you.

- About what?

- Jessica's baby,

it's mine.

I've just seen her,

she's in labour.

I'm sorry.

- You just thought you
were gonna run away?

Like father, like son?

Don't let me stop you.

If you really think this
is the right thing to do,

I'll even help you pack.

From the second you were born,
I've struggled on my own,

I've even gone hungry so you
could eat

and this is how you repay me?

Turn into a carbon copy of him!

All the trouble you've
brought to this door,

I've never turned my back on
you.

I could forgive you for
almost anything, but not this.

So you go and have a nice
life and leave that poor girl

to bring up your baby on her
own,

I just hope she does a
better job than I did!

So go on, what you waiting for?

Get out!

Go ask your Dad if you can live
with him, if he'll have you!

You deserve each other!

- Pete?
- Alright, Dad.

- Grab a stool, lad.

What's in the bag?

- You selling knock off?
- No.

- What brings you here then?

- I just needed someone to talk
to.

What about?

- There's this girl,

she's pregnant.

- Well, can't she get rid of it?

- No, it's too late for that.

- You still with her?

What are you worried about then?

- It's still my kid.

- Are you sure about that?

You'd better get used to all the
birds

throwing themselves at you, you
get your good looks from me.

Just don't get yourself tied
down,

life's too short for all that,
just fill your boots, lad.

- Like you did, you mean?

- Well, you've turned
out alright, haven't you?

- Got ya, come on!
- You jammy little stats.

- Oh, what?
- Woo!

- Pete!

Pete, hang on, hang on.

Look, lad.

Any chance of lending us
a tenner till tomorrow?

Come on.

- So I was right then?

- Adjourned until tomorrow.

I'm starting to think it'd be
better off if I was sent down.

- Careful what you wish for.

- At least I'd have a roof over
my head.

Me Ma's kicked me out, my
Dad doesn't wanna know.

- But apart from that,
things couldn't be better.

Look, I was in your shoes once,
you know,

I started with nothing, look at
me now.

Do me a couple of favours

and things could start looking
up for you.

- What kind of favours?

- Get your head down here
tonight.

Come and find me first
thing in the morning

and smarten yourself up.

- Mrs. Roden, you haven't
changed a bit.

You do remember me, don't you?

Paddy Coburn, I used to
live across the street.

Please accept these with
my heartfelt apologies,

I hear you've been
having a spot of bother.

- Oh, that's putting it mildly!

Now how would you like to be
faced.

- Well, do you think our
crew has done a good job?

- I'm absolutely speechless.

- That's a first for you.

- Have you seen what this man's
done?

It's nothing short of a miracle.

- I'm delighted you could make
it.

I knew you'd be keen to witness
community justice in action.

I couldn't be more proud than
to come from this street,

like Mrs. Roden there, I
remember how things used to be

and I'm determined to
restore that sense of pride

to this community.

Right, I think we're
ready for our close ups.

- You've done us proud, Paddy
Coburn.

People should forgive and
forget all that other business,

it's in the past now.

- Right, I think we've
had enough excitement

for one morning, shall we?

Be careful, whoa!

There we are.

Thank you very much.

- Is that the right time?

Quarter past nine, yeah.

- I think Peter's done a runner.

I've been calling him all
morning,

but his phone's switched off.

- Well, he'd better get a move
on,

I can't put him back any
further.

- Oh, this girl, the one who
said she was having his baby,

she went into labour last night,
he's admitted that it's his.

I lost my temper, I said
things I shouldn't have

and I haven't seen him since.

- Well, if he's not here in five
minutes,

I've no option but to issue
a warrant for his arrest.

Any sign?

Right then, we'll have
to issue the warrant.

- What's he doing here?

- Look, I was gonna tell
you, I'm not coming in today.

- You're bunking off?

- We're going to town,

he's buying me some new clothes
for work.

- Can't you see what he's doing?

- He's giving me a chance,

that's more than anyone
else has ever done for me.

- Is there anything you'd like
to add,

before I pass sentence?

- Yes, sir.

I know I've messed up and
I'm not proud of myself,

but I had my reasons.

About six months ago I found
out I'd made a girl pregnant.

I couldn't handle the
thought of becoming a Dad.

She went into labour last night

and I could be a Dad now for all
I know.

- How does that make you feel?

- Ashamed.

I just want a chance to prove
to her that I can change.

- And how do you plan to do
that?

I'm not addicted
to drugs, but I do need help.

- Anything else?

- Yes, sir, this morning I
went to the local college

and picked up some
information on the courses.

- Doing what?

- Plumbing, sir.

- What would you say to
people in this court,

who might suspect that all
this is just a cynical ploy

to avoid a heavier sentence?

- It isn't, I swear.

I've never really known my own
Dad,

he was never there for me,

I'd hate my kid to feel about
me the way I feel about him.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

But I'm also pleased for you,

because I'm no longer speaking
to you

just as a lad or a son, I'm
speaking to you as a father.

I phoned the hospital earlier,

Jessica gave birth to a healthy
baby girl

in the early hours of this
morning, congratulations

and congratulations to you,

I must say you're probably
the most glamorous granny

we've ever had in this court.

Drugs blight the lives of
many people in this community

and this court could not be more
committed

to punishing those who deal
them in the most severe manner.

However, I have decided
that a custodial sentence

would be counter productive
in this instance.

I therefore give you a 12
month supervision order

and 300 hours of Community
Payback.

As part of this order you
will be obliged to attend

a compulsory drugs
rehabilitation course.

I also impose an exclusion order

preventing you from going near

or associating with anyone
from the Glenfield Estate.

If you find it so difficult to
break away

from these so called friends of
yours,

this should solve the problem.

Don't ever let me see you here
again.

- All stand.

- Haley.

- Yeah?

- I'm sorry, I'm cursed with a
sweet tooth

and an addictive personality.

- What are you like?

- With all due respect, sir,

what kind of a message
is that sending out?

- I would have thought a
positive one.

- To who, drug dealers?

- That lad has never had a
father figure in his life,

he was about to repeat the
pattern.

If we're gonna make an
impact on this community,

we have to break that
cycle, because, believe me,

it's the only way to make
sure that the next generation

aren't coming through these
doors in 16 years time.

- All very commendable, I only
hope our friend at the press

- takes such a charitable view.
- Stuff the press!

Do you really think I
give a monkeys about them?

I know I've done the right thing

and that's all that matters to
me.

- Fair enough, I know we
can't always see eye to eye,

but at least I know you'll
always be

completely straight with me.

- Joe.

I haven't been straight with
you.

How could you?

- Jealous?

- He'll never change.

All this, buying you presents,
paying you compliments,

can't you see it's all part of
his plan?

- What are you on about, what
plan?

- He'll have you hooked on drugs

and selling your body on street
corners before you know it.

- I don't have to listen to
this.

- Yeah, you do,

because I'm telling the truth.

- And how would you know?

- Because he did it to my Mum.

They don't come much
worse than Jake Little.

- There you go.
- Thank you, Vicky.

There we go.

Cheers.

- Come on then, you've kept me
in suspense for long enough.

- You wanted to know about
the skeletons in my cupboard.

I understand your frustration
today,

but that lad, I had to
give him another chance,

I couldn't just stand back

and watch him make the
same mistakes as me.

There was a girl,

she got pregnant, I didn't
do the decent thing.

I ran away to university,
never looked back.

- You've got a kid?

- A daughter.

She would have been 40 this
year.

I tried to trace her a few years
back,

but too late, she died.

I never even got to meet her.

Nobody's fault, except my own.

- How did she die?

- Her Mum died when she was a
teenager,

she got on to the drugs.

By all accounts there was
nothing she wouldn't do

to feed her habit, years of
abuse took their toll as ever.

- You do know this is all gonna
come out?

- Hm.

You've done us proud,

Paddy Coburn,

people should forgive and
forget all that other business.

People should forgive and
forget all that other business.

- Hello, Mrs. Roden?

It's Louise again from the
Mercury.

Sorry to call so late.

Oh, that's great, thank you so
much.

You take care now, bye, bye.

Got ya.

- I haven't been exactly
straight with you.

I think it's about time
you paid your respects.

- There's a fine line
between community spirit

and being a grass, you know.

- You owe me now and I
charge a daily interest rate,

but we'll get to that later.

- Jake's right, just like your
mother.

- I wanna speak to Louise
Scanlon.

I haven't got an appointment,

just tell her it's about Judge
Coburn.

- We have to up our game,
get something on Jake Little.
