Yes, I hit Stephen.
But do you know what? I would do it again.
Some of you know that Gwen is related to my wife.
I thought you were the acting Head of Department.
I'll prove to the Head that I'm the only person who deserves this job.
I wanted to ask You will be interviewed for the job.
Dan isn't on the shortlist.
Nadine has been shortlisted for the Welsh Waterways Art competition.
You can leave that thankless job and work in the gallery with me.
I'm angry with you.
Really angry.
We've got problems, haven't we? Mam's got to go into hospital for an operation.
I don't feel completely satisfied with That's the problem with you women.
You always want more! HOME / WORK WORK Sorry, boss.
As I was saying, I'd like to introduce a new face to the school.
Mr Marc Reed is here on supply for the day.
Can someone show him the ropes? It's impossible to find anyone under 50 these days.
Simon Watkins is often eager to help.
I'll introduce you later.
Tonight, we have a parents' evening for Year 11.
Grug Matthews, the Head of Year, has made the arrangements.
Talk to her if you have any questions, or um Has anyone seen Grug or Simon this morning? I told you I wanted to be early today.
Grug, all you have to do is arrange a room.
Didn't they teach you that on the headship course? Grug come on.
SCHOOL BELL If I remember rightly, your exact words were .
.
"I'd rather die than do supply again.
" Yeah, well they were desperate.
I had a call this morning.
I'm not here to make things awkward.
Isn't it a small world? Grug has a lot on her plate today.
Are you available to share the burden? It's a pleasure.
Mr Watkins? Sorry, I was running late This is Mr Marc Reed.
He hasn't done supply with us before.
I was hoping you would show him around.
Of course.
I'm more than willing to offer a helping hand.
Wonderful.
Simon will look after you.
Put those bags down! Looking hot today, sir! Thank you very much, Nia.
All the information you need is on this.
Mathematics - Grug Matthews.
Nice for some.
Sorry? Some people have time off just to wipe their nose! Maths lessons always frightened me.
Our registration system is the same as in most schools.
Is it on the computer? Yes.
Let me know if you need anything.
I don't know where your room is.
CHILDREN LAUGH Come on, boys.
Basketball today! The advantages of using technology .
.
to enhance their enthusiasm about their surroundings I hope you're not mitching.
I forgot my soccer kit.
I've got to sit in the library.
You forgot football.
Is anything wrong? No.
Can I come over tonight? I've got a new PlayStation game.
I've got a parents' evening.
Anyway, I'd only beat you.
In your dreams.
Another time? Alright, but it's your funeral! CHILDREN SCREAMING AND SHOUTING Year 8! In my day, we used a biro and paper.
Didn't anyone show you what to do? Simon.
He was in a rush.
Grug Matthews.
Marc Reed, I used to live with Nerys.
A lot has changed since I was last in a classroom.
Right first, you need to click on this icon.
Nice very nice.
Well you haven't done a lot today.
Are you thinking about your acceptance speech? Dad won't take me.
Do you want me to call him to? No he's ill.
Nothing serious, I hope.
He's just ill.
Listen, Nadine.
I've got a parents' evening, but come to my house by 7.
00pm .
.
and we'll go to the ceremony together.
Did you really think I was going to miss your big moment? Work! COMPUTER BLEEPS Damn! Get on with your work.
SCHOOL BELL Have you got a headache this morning, Miss Matthews? Is it that obvious? This is the result of keeping two spare bottles of wine in the fridge.
You don't have to feel sorry for me.
I don't.
Tell me, what do you know about social-networking sites? How was it? I'm still here.
And there's only 5 hours, 35 minutes and 15 seconds left.
Bro Taf creates an environment that helps people to develop and evolve.
He's swallowed the school prospectus.
Cuppa? Milk first, two sugars.
He's 45 and still a supply.
It's tragic.
We're not all as ambitious as you.
Can you take my next lesson? I've got loads to do for the interview.
I can't prepare with 30 rowdy kids.
Sorry, Si.
Think of it as an opportunity to develop and evolve! Black, three sugars.
You're getting too old for mid-week parties, Becs.
Shut up, grandad! I like my nights out.
SCHOOL BELL It's not fair, sir.
You didn't tell us about the test today.
That's enough.
The school adopts detailed strategies .
.
to monitor the work of the department.
This is your opportunity to prove that the Geography Department .
.
delivers a first-class education.
No arguments! I had no idea that the Head asked you to do this.
I haven't had the opportunity to do a lot yet.
Gemma gave me this CD of photographs.
Oh Oh! Nothing beats that feeling you get at the start of a new relationship.
I doubt if Wyn would agree with you.
I thought things were going well.
He hasn't spoken to me for more than a week.
I thought he was sulking.
It's his loss.
Maybe you're right.
I'm not going to act like a child just because he does.
POP MUSIC STARTS ON CD PLAYER Girls what has that got to do with Culhwch ac Olwen? Homework.
A verse or poem that means something to me.
I hope you were all poring over the anthology on the bus this morning.
Who wants to start? Your enthusiasm is very reassuring! Branwen, thank goodness.
"Two hearts, one aspiration "Two tongues, but one language "Two ropes becoming one "Two souls, but one journey "Companionship will continue "There is no solitude when there are two.
" Dic Jones, isn't it? Priodas.
Thank you.
Let's have something more light-hearted.
MUSIC PLAYS ON iPOD What do you want? The bell's gone, sir.
Oh, right off you go, Year 10.
Put your test papers here, please.
Thank you thank you.
Oh, damn thing.
Have you got the code? What? I'll talk you through a few things later.
I remember my first day.
It was a nightmare.
Year 10 boys stapled my handbag to the desk.
And people say children lack imagination.
I need some paper.
Of course, sorry.
I'm sure Marc will be fine.
I'll tell him not to ask Wyn about Robert De Niro.
That was my biggest mistake.
Are you angry with me? No, of course I'm not.
All I'm saying is, don't do anything that will make people suspect us.
We don't want to stop seeing each other, do we? Sorry.
DOOR OPENS This is unacceptable, Branwen.
If you don't change your attitude, you're going to fail the exam.
Do you understand? Yes, sir.
Wrong room.
You've got to show them who's boss sometimes.
Yeah.
It sounds odd, but this breakdown has done me the world of good.
If I hadn't snapped as I did well And I've discovered such nice people on the Internet.
Be careful on the Internet.
There are lots of nutters out there.
That Facebook it's so clever.
Dyfrig Stephens, History, poked me this morning.
You're certainly more fun since the breakdown.
Do you mind me saying that? No, I was really cranky.
I totally agree with you.
Do you mind if I call you 'ti'? Call me whatever you like, Gwen.
You can poke me later, if you want.
Would it help if I told you these were herbal? Good morning, Year 10.
Are you a supply teacher, sir? Yes, why? Wahey! The car, the hair and now this.
Eirlys is worried sick about you.
I'm 50 years young, Rhydian.
Nobody needs to worry about me.
You're probably behind the smoking.
What? Me? It's just your style to break the rules and push the boundaries.
Earlier, a member of staff claimed you were drunk.
I'm not drunk.
Just hungover.
If Aneurin Rees hadn't been carted off, you'd be facing a tribunal now.
It's high time you took this job seriously.
Give it a rest, before your blood pressure hits the roof.
Nobody wants a repeat of Christmas Day! I'm sorry if we've upset you.
It won't happen again.
What happened on Christmas Day? SCHOOL BELL TEXT ALER 'Lunch? X' If I had a car like that, would you let me take you for a spin, miss? Behave yourself, Scott Morgan, or I'll tell your girlfriend.
I don't know how you can work with these hormonal oiks! The sooner we get you out of this place, the better.
Of course I'm interested.
When? School doesn't finish until half past three.
I know that but Right, I'll phone you back.
Everything alright? I've got an audition at half past two.
An audition for what? I watch all the soaps.
It's for a new play.
Oh I prefer musicals.
The dramatist is from Romania.
I'm sure I've seen you somewhere before.
Have you ever played Danny Zuko? This wasn't the lunch I was expecting when you called earlier.
Don't you think it's romantic? What? A quickie in the car park? Come on.
We don't get to spend time alone often.
I've got to go anyway.
I don't know how you cope with it all.
The timetable the bells But you'll be leaving soon.
The school has to find a suitable replacement first.
If you don't want this job, I'll find someone else.
How's it going? Fine.
Did you get my message? What message? Have you seen Dan today? He's been helping Marc, since you decided to abandon him.
My interview is more important than a supply teacher.
Have you seen Dan or not? What's wrong with you? I'm just concentrating on my interview.
Fine I won't keep you.
SCHOOL BELL KNOCK ON DOOR Wyn? The computer leads had become loose again.
You look nice.
The Head wants a slide show for the parents' evening.
Do you have any photographs to add? Give me a minute.
I thought you'd like to help since you've got an interest in the field.
A slide show? Films, photographs, the media.
Thank you.
I'm not going to do it for you.
Do what? If you want to finish with me, be mature enough to say the words.
Oh.
Well? Maybe we should you know You're pathetic.
Do you know that? RUSTLING Hello? 'Football vs Rugby - Discuss' GASPS You can tell me, Jac.
I lost my dinner money.
Have you argued with anyone? What about the boys in your class? Hey.
Hi.
Well? I was starving.
That's no excuse for stealing.
Don't do it again.
Thanks.
Is it true that you're leaving? No no.
You had no right to go into my desk.
One of the boys found it.
You had no right to read it.
Give it here! Now! How could you do this? Natasha.
Nadine.
Don't speak like that.
I should call your mother.
My mother's dead.
It was a misunderstanding, Mr Elis.
Is that for me? Well, yes but Can I have a word, Miss Harries? Haven't you got a lesson to go to? Finally! You asked me to set this up not do it on my own.
Sorry, I've lost my phone.
When did you last have it? In the staffroom, before I found Jac.
Talk to the Head if you suspect him.
Aren't you worried about him? I'm a teacher and he's a pupil.
He's your brother.
I don't want to confuse him.
It's easier this way.
It's easier for you.
It doesn't concern you.
It concerns us all if it affects Jac's behaviour.
Jac is alright.
How would you know? SCHOOL BELL I'm telling you, Beca.
It's mass Alright? Have you got anything for me to sign? Oh yes, or you won't get paid.
I hear you've been hiding your talent.
It's massive, according to Gemma.
I remembered where I'd seen you before.
That film about the wedding? SHE HUMS THE BRIDAL MARCH You know what they say, "If you've got it " Exactly, Mr Reed.
And if there's any more work? I'll put in a good word for you.
You're an angel.
Look, I'm sorry about earlier.
Is anything wrong? Don't worry.
I'll phone his mother.
Can I have your attention? The good name of the school has been tarnished recently .
.
and we need to regain the parents' confidence in us.
I want a lot of positive energy and enthusiasm tonight.
Thank you.
There you go.
You must have left it on the table.
It was in my locker.
Did you take it? What did you want with it? Did you want to read my messages? You don't have any messages.
For some reason, you've deleted them.
You had no right to take my phone.
I know what's going on.
I'm glad you do because I don't know what you're talking about.
You're seeing someone else.
What makes you think that? Are you denying the fact that you have feelings for him? Yes for who? I know you're sleeping with him behind my back, Grug.
This is the new plasma screen .
.
purchased by the Parent-Teacher Association.
We're grateful for their generosity.

You look very familiar.
Are you sure we haven't? It's my mistake Sorry.
Right, Mr and Mrs Francis.
Millie's football skills have improved.
Branwen is conscientious and she's very keen.
But she's only going to get a B.
There is still time before the exam.
With a lot of revision, I'm sure Branwen can do much better.
Not if she's chasing after boys.
You know what teenagers are like.
If you sneak out again, I'll track him down and break both his legs.
Thanks for everything you're doing for Branwen.
Yeah, cheers.
Come on then.
Her homework is good, but Bethany could try harder in class.
It's obvious that her mind is somewhere else.
This is my phone number .
.
if you want to discuss Bethany's education over a glass of wine.
Do you see why I hate him so much? I'm sure he's not that bad.
I can't live under the same roof as him any more please? I'm old enough to move out.
No.
Why not? You can't move in with me, Branwen.
This was just meant to be a bit of fun.
I thought you liked me.
Not enough to endanger my career.
Move in? Which planet are you living on? Wyn? Look I wanted to apologize.
You're not pathetic.
I'm not so sure about that.
No, I was just disappointed, that's all.
Are you alright? You look as if you're miles away.
The others are going for a drink.
Are you going? No, I need to go to Seren.
Are you? No.
Feet up, the TV, pizza and a bottle of beer, is it? Something like that.

No, not for me.
I'm going home.
It's not like you to leave early.

What's wrong? Sorry, miss.

He's left his best friend on his own.
Leave him alone, I like him.
Of course you like him.
All the women like him.
I'm not surprised he didn't get an interview for the job .
.
because the Head has seen right through him.
He didn't try.
What? He didn't try for the job, Simon.
That's why he didn't get an interview.
Hey, taxi! Come on, girls.
You're a hit.
Are you coming to sit down? What's going on, Wyn? I've been stupid.

Thank you.
Daniel James? We spoke on the phone.
Did you know your mother was in hospital? Is she still in? There were complications.

Nobody knew that Jac was home alone.
He got locked out and tried to break in.
Thankfully, a neighbour called the police.
Did you notice anything was wrong? I've only got to know him recently.
Would you prefer it if he stayed with foster parents tonight? # THE WAY YOU MOVE # Outkast I'm going to the toilet.

It might look like that to you, but something like this I'm your big brother.
Yes, and you're rubbish.
Yes, I know.
I'll try harder.
OK? OK? I'm Sara.
I know your husband.
Could you tell him that I appreciate his gift but I can't keep it? Who is it? One of your friends.
As I said to your wife thanks, but no thanks.
You were right.
It's very heavy, isn't it? Please, let me explain.
There's nothing going on.
I mentioned a job in the gallery to Sara Are you sure you don't want to stay? It's tempting, but no.
I want to do things properly from now on.
I remember our first kiss.
Aww.
I had to fight you off.
Yes, I only wanted you for your body.
Were you using me? Mmm.
So um I'll call you to arrange a date.
Yes, that would be nice.
Goodnight.
Thank you.
Hey, Beca! # To come and wash my sins # # It is she # That my heart loves # Living here # Far from her # And it is longing # To see her # That makes me # Fall pale # Wealth is nothing but vanity # Beauty will not last # But faithful love # Endures like steel # So long as # Two remain # # When I was a year or two younger # And I was a red-cheeked, innocent young lad # I'd go to school like every good little boy # Through fog and rain in the winter and the summer # At school, I had # History lessons, Geography lessons # And English lessons all the time # And one or two lessons in Welsh, fair play # Because I was a little Welshman #
