Jenna, Jenna! Jenna, mate.

Do you want to say anything
about the charges against you?

Are you in love with the boy, Jenna?

You can talk to us. We
can put your side, love.

Why don't you just tell us what
happened in your own words?

Is that a message from
your toy boy, Jenna?

- Is it child abuse?
- What?

ls it true what's on social
media? Do you like kinky sex?

Oh, my God. Stop!

Did you make him
wear his uniform in bed?

He's a child, he
has a right to privacy.

Should've thought about that
before you shagged him, mate.

You're disgusting.
Get out of my way.

_

Can I get, eh, 40 slims?

Actually, 60, please.
And a tall bottle of vodka.

Thank you.

_

_

_

_

_

Ah, for real?

I can't believe I missed the
game. Did anything else happen?

Oi, oi, toy boy!

Did she have a
nice pair of... you know?

Kyle, did you post this?

Are these Miss Garvey's tits?

No way!

Can I have her number?

You and Miss are all over WebChat.

You don't have WebChat, do
you, on your mum's old phone?

Literally on WebChat.

Did you do it in her car?

Come on, Kyle, have
you got more pictures?

I heard you smashed her
round the back of Lazarus?

Against a wheelie bin!

I wish I'd read the signs.

I thought she was just being
young, enjoying pubbing and clubbing.

She's not that young.

The way she was with the kids,

acting like she's one of them.

I mean, the guidelines are very clear.

She cares about them.

How can that be wrong?

No, not like that. God!

I wonder what the police
found on her laptop.

The kids are saying awful
things about... child pornography.

Well... Izzy told me that

Jenna posed as a child

to join their instant messaging app.

I can't believe that.

Sorry. I mean, I just
don't believe any of it.

Well, you just never know with people.

You heard from her at all?

No. Why, would I?

Well, it would just be interesting
to find out her side of the story.

Why?

You’ve already made your mind up.

The whole school have made their mind up.

She's guilty till proven more guilty.

I was expecting you at nine.

We've got a lot to get through.

They've brought the hearing
forward to minimize press intrusion.

Too late. I've already been intruded.

Really? The story's broken already?

Once you're charged, I'm afraid
you're sort of thrown to the dogs.

I mean, they're just
writing lies about me,

they're totally unprecedented lies.

The police don't pay attention
to it. Juries aren't supposed to.

It's just unpleasant.

Unpleasant? It's horrific.

Do you have friends or
family you can stay with?

Well, I thought I had friends.

Yeah.

You'll soon find out
who your real people are.

I mean, why is my life
of such prurient interest?

There's murderers,
celebrities, politicians.

You're one of them, I guess.

The reader, Middle England,

''Nice lady slips up.''

- I don't...
- OK.

So... I've reviewed the police files,

there's no forensic
evidence from you or Kyle.

There is CCTV of you

and him entering the toilets,

coming out 15 minutes later.

Here's the relevant section.

OK, I get it.
Can you turn it off?

There's obviously Kyle's testimony
and that of your colleagues.

And your own statement.

Can I plead guilty to something
you have absolutely no memory of?

I'm assuming you'll plead
not guilty. Unless you...

Yeah.

Mr Revell is here.
Your 11 o'clock.

Oh, he's early.
Right, thanks.

OK, so, I'm still waiting
for the DI to give me

the files from the phone and laptop.

Is she likely to find anything
incriminating on there?

Like what?

Naked pictures of my pupils?

A subscription to Groomers Weekly?

I have to clarify everything.

I'm on your side, by the way.

Look, let's reconvene
when we've got those files,

perhaps when you're
feeling less agitated.

I would also recommend, in
terms of convincing the judge,

that your lifestyle isn't too chaotic.

I know people drink
when they're stressed.

Stressed?

Stressed? I wanna blot the days out,

I don't know what to do.

I'm just trying to think,

just remember what...

what possessed me
to throw my entire life...

Thank you.

Look after yourself.

Chill out, lad, stop being annoying.

Come on, bro, you've got
to tell me something, man.

How you leaving me hanging like this?

- Come on, tell me.
- Shut up, man.

Whatever. Listen, yeah?

Tell me tomorrow, yeah? You have to.

Gimme some tips, yeah?

Right, love ya, bruv!
You're a lege!

Oi, Miss. Miss.

Oi, Miss, can I have a shag?

You fancy kids, right, Miss?

Am I too old now 'cos I'm 18?

Come on, Miss, just a quick fuck.

We know where you live, slag.

We know where you live.

Give me a gold star on my cock!

Fucking mucky.

- Run away, run away.
- We'll be waiting.

You shouldn't be noshing off
with 15-year-olds, should you?

Ah!

Hello, emergency, which
service do you require?

Police.

Someone's urinated through my letterbox.

OK. Are you in any physical danger?

Yeah, well, I live on my own.

Could I take your name
and address, please?

_

Hello? Could I have
your address, please?

Hello?

Nothing, I ...

I made a mistake.

Most of Kyle's statement
could easily be turned over.

Wow.

Nina really took the
opportunity to vent.

Is her statement to
the police incorrect?

No, I don't know. It...

It just seems more like a
character assassination.

Why is there no statement from Jack?

Jack?

No. Sorry, I...

I just thought he might have
something positive to add.

If we could get back
to Kyle's statement.

He also claims you invited him
to the Lazarus Club.

He's 15.

Why on earth would I invite
a kid to such a sleaze pit?

But you're often down there.

Yeah, well, I told the police,

I just go there for a dance,
you know, to let off steam.

No judgment.

What else am I supposed
to do? Go to All Bar One,

have a bottle of Pinot with the girls?

What do you do to let off steam?

I go home to my family.

Well, I like a bit of
messy fun at a disco.

Well, the police will be talking
to anyone who knows you

from the Lazarus.

Well, I don't think
they'll find anything out.

Nothing illegal, anyway.

Did you ever talk about this
aspect of your life with Kyle?

Erm...

the kids used to tease me,
ask me where I'd been out.

I don't know, I think they...

they liked the idea of me
being a bit wild, I guess.

I don't know.

So Kyle knew it might be a place
you'd end up on a Friday night?

Where are you going with this?

I don't think Kyle's story will
hold up under cross-examination.

I mean, look at him, his background,

mother lurching between
boyfriends, rent in arrears.

You know she was arrested for assault?

And there's you...
outstanding references,

two years teaching at the
prestigious Hillsden Grammar,

and 12 years at Earlbridge.

You really think I can go back to
being Head of English after this?

Well, once you're proven innocent.

Earlbridge will never have me back.

Poor Ken already stuck his neck
out trying to get me the promotion.

Have you seen what's
being said about me?

Unfortunately I have.

The police have found
other material online.

It's... troubling.

It's a forum where kids share
pictures of so-called hot teachers.

Upskirt shots... fan fiction.

Oh, my God.

There was also a bet on
who'd have sex with you first.

Me?

But hang...

These have been taken
while I've been teaching.

But they're old.

What, and kids are posting these?

Yeah.

I think when you see
it all together like this...

It's usually part of a feed,
so it moves really quickly.

Most of this is years old...

not posted by Kyle, but...

So how is this relevant now?

Well, we can show the
online culture around Kyle,

how sex is normalised for these kids,

they're not innocent victims.

It's Kyle's word against yours,

and we can build a profile.

Kids like this are easy to break down.

Kids like what?

No. I don't want you
breaking him down. I don't....

I don't want him or me being
dragged through the mud,

you dissecting it and humiliating him.

- If we're to clear your name, Jenna...
- How?

How am I ever going
to get away from this?

How is my name ever going to
be anything other than prefixed by...

by ''paedo teacher''?

Morning. The prodigal child returns.

I assume you'll want your old room.

Got yourself in quite the pickle.

I assume it's nonsense.

Adolescents are inveterate liars.

I'm surprised the police
are taking it seriously at all.

At least it's spelt correctly.

Ah, Jenna.

Will you be contributing
at all to your living 'costs

- while you're lodging here?
- Erm, well...

Oh, well, that's, eh...

if you have an income currently,

or is it all on hold
pending investigation?

Really, you'd be within your
rights to sue that lying little moron.

I have some savings.

It'll be a stretch finding a decent
post, even when you're cleared.

And this sort of nonsense doesn't help.

Oh, God...

_

I presume that's it
for press interest now?

I've, erm...

been trying to get hold
of your headmaster.

Ken? Why? What... what
do you want with him?

Well, I want his
assurance that all this...

No, I don't want
you involved. It's fine.

Just leave it. It'll be over
soon, the press will get bored,

I 'll go home. I don't
want you involved.

Oh, well, it rather looks like I am.

You see, this is what
we do, isn't it? Hm?

You make a mess,
I pick up the pieces.

I don't want anything from you.

Yeah, other than free board in my house?

It's not your house, it's Mum's house.

Oh, God...

- Hi.
- Hello.

OK, so I got your computer
files back from the police.

There's nothing of interest.

No?

How are you?

I want the ground to swallow me up.

I know what that means
now. Like, really know.

Isn't there someone you can stay with?

I'm at my father's house.

In my old room.

That's good, that's good. That's nice.

Yeah.

OK, so...

the police did find something else.

What?

Pictures sent from a messaging
app from your phone to Kyle's.

They were sent the night
just before Kyle alleges

the offence occurred.

Softly pornographic
content, like breasts.

What?

No. I... I don't use
that app, I don't have it.

That... that...

that's for kids to send each other shit.

But there were on your phone.

But I've never used
it. I-I don't use it.

OK, well,

the police can trace who
the account's registered to.

No, hang on. I do... I...

I do remember some notifications,

and, eh... Jack saying something, but...

I mean...

I don't do social media,

I don't even have Facebook. Seriously.

The facts state otherwise, Jenna,

and will be seen as grooming.

Are you...?

Off out? Is that wise?

Hello.

Hi.

I'm sorry I've not been in touch.

It's all right, I wouldn't want to be
in touch with me either right now.

Do you think it's a good
idea, us meeting here?

No. I just wanted...

Are they OK?

The kids, you know?

Only, I feel so useless,
I feel... pointless,

you know, sitting
around, waiting till all this...

When I should be helping
them, my Year 11's.

Listen, I
-I was angry. I...

I didn't know what
to say or what to...

It doesn't matter now.

Nothing's ever going to be the same.

Are they OK? You know,
with their exams and stuff?

I mean, I feel like I've left them
at such a crucial time, you know?

It's taken all my might
not to reach out to them.

I just feel like...

you know, I was there one minute
and then I was gone. I just hope...

hope they don't feel... abandoned.

No.

That night.

I don't know, I don't remember.

I did want to get in
touch sooner, I did.

I just...

I didn't know where I stood.

I didn't know where we stood.

Listen...

I know this is bad, but
whatever's happened,

I'm still his teacher, and, erm...

I'd be breaking the terms of my bail,

but could you give
this to Kyle for me?

Or you could just read
it and tell him what's in it.

I'm not your go-between.

Is that why you wanted to meet? Here?

Oh, my God, Jenna.

It's all about him?

No. I mean as his teacher.

That's all I meant.
You can read it. Jack!

Forgot this.

It's your things the police didn't take.

_

The hearing's in two weeks.

We say how you want to
plea, and then a trial date is set.

Why go to trial?

Why? To defend your case.

I don't remember anything.

Look, if Kyle said it happened...

then it happened.

Sorry, are you saying you don't
want to contest this boy's claim?

Kyle's a good kid. I
know him, he wouldn't lie.

I know my kids.
They're all good kids.

But... me, I mean...

the police start asking around about me,

you know what they'll find out.

That I'm a slag.

A chaotic slag with a drink problem,

who can't even remember
half the guys she's slept with.

I can't even remember sending
these naked pictures from some app.

They'll lay out my sad
little car crash of a life

for all the world to pore over.

Then you'll dredge up
all that stuff about Kyle,

his mum's history.

She got him into that
school, and she works hard.

She even pays for extra tuition,
you know, to give him the best.

That's all hanging by a thread now.

Nonetheless,

once his statement
is held up to scrutiny...

No, scrutiny is what I do not want.

I don't want to go to trial.

Whatever I did...

I'm guilty.

You can't just...

This case needs to be

deliberated and judged.

And also, I don't feel I can support
a guilty plea if you didn't do it.

Can you enter a not
guilty plea if I did do it?

If you tell me you did it, no,

I can't conscionably
support a not guilty plea.

I did it.

You want to plead guilty to the charge

of abuse of a position of trust?

Sexual activity with a child?

Yes. Yes.

That holds a prison sentence of...

Look, I don't care about the sentencing.

I am not going to trial.

Hi.

Hi. I was just...

checking you've booked a cab.

- I was going to drive.
- Right.

No, eh, if you get a prison term,

you'll be taken into custody right away.

Make sure you bring cash,

change of clothes, medication.

You can buy cigarettes in
prison, but you can't bring them in.

And there are no phones allowed,

so make sure you jot down any numbers.

Jenna?

Yes.

We're just preparing for the
worst and hoping for the best.

You can still change your plea.

No.

No. No. I want to be
sentenced. No trial.

Off for a job interview?

Are you... Are you going out somewhere?

Ah. Yeah, I did tell you.

Dry stone walling course.

Swaledale.

Been booked for months.

Try not to have any wild
parties while I'm away.

Miss Garvey!

Miss Garvey. Miss Garvey!

Six months suspended is
good... very good, considering.

I didn't even know Community
Payback was a thing.

What do I have to do?

Clean some graffiti or pick up
some litter. 200 hours is reasonable.

In public, in a hi-vis vest,
with everyone looking at me?

It's supposed to be challenging.

It's a punishment for
a crime you committed.

I'd rather have been locked up.

Will I ever be able to teach again?

We did cover this.

You've been placed on the Sex
Offenders Register for ten years,

and...

you're on the Children's Barred List,

which means it's a criminal offence
to even apply for a teaching job.

You can request
removal in ten years' time.

You were aware of this.

I did suggest you plea.

- Let's get you out of here.
- Oh, for God's sake.

What's he doing at a sentencing?

I'm so sorry, I've got
a hearing to attend to.

I love you, Mum.

Ooh!

Oh, hello, Papa.

How was your dry wall stoning?

You did this awful thing?!

I didn't think I could
expect any less of you.

And there I was
pulling out all the stops,

asking favours, telling everyone,

''Oh, no, no, no, you
didn't do anything.''

Oh, you love it, don't you?

You love it.

You love me being here, trapped. Huh?

I can hear you, humming away,

and bustling around the
house, gloating, smug.

Yeah, smug 'cos I'm...

'cos I'm prone, 'cos I'm down.

Yeah, you love it when I crash,
so you can pick up the pieces.

You think I love what?

The years of...

of drunken, reckless, idiot behaviour?

Your disgusting promiscuity?

Do I love that...

that my daughter is a pervert?

A sex offender?

A paedophile, for Christ's sake?!

You knew.

You knew, and-and... and you...

you let me believe.

What were you thinking? Huh?

Haven't you made me
miserable enough over the years?

Eh? Well...

I mean, has-has the attention faded,

did you feel the need to
drop another bombshell?

Yes! Yes, yes, yes.

That's right, I fucked a kid
so Daddy would notice me.

Well, there it is. There's
the filth, the sarcasm,

when you should be
abject, begging forgiveness,

hiding your face!

Dad.

Oh, shit.

Dad.

Dad. Dad!

Dad.

Here. Here.

Get out of my way.

What do you expect
me to do next, Dad?

Huh?

Go hang, for all I care.

No, genuinely,
I want to know.

What do you think
I'm going to do next?

I don't know.

Keep ruining my life?

Keep shaming me until I
can't show my face anywhere?

Oh, well, good. Good to
know, 'cos clearly I can.

Clearly I'm getting a rise out of you.

So I 'll just keep on shaming

upstanding pillar of the
community Roger, huh?

Just take the fucking water!

Ah.

Oh...

This is horrible.

You're horrible.

What have I ever done? Hm?

Do I deserve this, really?

You're just like your mother.

Oh, good. There it is.

I wondered how long until you
trundled out your go-to put-down.

just one big difference
between me and Mum, Roger.

I won't make your life
easier by topping myself.

All right, two o'clock, take a break.

Six hours down, 294 to go.

What are you in for, then?

Out for?

Sorry, you don't have to answer that.

You just don't look like
the usual... offender.

I'm a sex offender.

What, like...?

Sex offender.

- You guys want to play Fifa?
- Yeah, sure.

Nah, I can't.

What, busy now you've got a baby coming?

What?

Facebook. Dude, you
knocked up Miss Garvey.

Fuck off.

It was a joke, man.
Where are you going?

I've got to see Brian.

You still hanging out with him?

I'm not hanging out with him,
all right? He's my fucking tutor.

You don't have to be
such a dick all the time.

All right, man!

Kyle!

Jenna, what's going on?

Jenna.

Kyle.

Kyle.

Kyle, please, wait.

Kyle!

Look...

Please, just wait, wait.

I'm sorry. I ...

I'm sorry, I've been
trying to get hold of you.

I know I'm not supposed to, but...

I just want to say I'm so sorry.

I just... I wanted to tell you that...

you did the right thing,
OK? Going to the police,

I don't resent or blame
you for all the fallout. I just...

I just...

I just hope I haven't ruined
intimacy for you, you know?

I hope you can go on to have
healthy relationships and...

and not be affected by all of this...

shit.

Why did you plead guilty?

Sorry?

If you say that you don't
remember what happened,

then why did you plead guilty?

Well, because you said...

you said that's what happened.

Well, you weren't supposed to.

Yeah?

DI Sowerby.

Is this a good time?

Can I come in?

I've had a report from your
Community Payback Supervisor.

Look, I'm sorry. It
was just a coincidence.

I mean, he passed by.
I couldn't just ignore him.

Yeah, well, you're
going to have to, Jenna.

The terms of your
sentence is very clear.

I know, I... I get it.

I didn't think. Sorry.

Well, this time you'll
get away with a fine.

But, eh...

you could end up going to
prison, you do realise that?

It's just hard, you know?

I mean, this is a child
I've taught for five years.

I think about him, his welfare,
his state of mind, you know?

All the kids. Not just him.

I can't help it.

OK.

Official warning delivered.

Erm...

Listen, I just...

I
-I just wondered...

if I'd have not pleaded guilty...

would I have been convicted?

I can't answer that.

It really doesn't help to
dwell too much on what ifs.

I know, but just in your experience.

I'd have pushed for a conviction.

Whether the kid would've held it
together under cross-examination.

But, I mean, the CCTV
footage and his voice-mail,

the instant messages
sent to Kyle from my phone,

the pictures, I mean, that would've
incriminated me anyway, right?

The instant messaging account
wasn't registered to you.

What?

You set it up under an alias,

which shows your
actions were premeditated.

No. No, I didn't.

OK. Erm...

these are questions for your solicitor.

Ava Mansouri, please leave a message.

Ava, it's Jenna.

I didn't send the naked pictures.

Did we know that?

Ava, I think he lied about us.

Kyle lied.
