00:00And then, you had the warm, oozing, melted chocolate, stirring gently.
00:26Not allowed to bake on Sunday.
00:28Like you. Good as your shoes. Carry on.
00:33Pour the chocolate-buttery mix into a baking tin and lick the bowl.
00:38Stop! It's torture!
00:41Bake in a hot oven until the smell of hot chocolate brownies drives you mad!
00:46I want chocolate brownies!
00:47Wait a minute. I know how we can persuade Juke to let us bake.
00:48I'm a chef.
00:49And I have to make stuff.
01:00Isn't he cute?
01:01What are you gonna make, Marco?
01:03He can help me make sounds just for lunch.
01:05I want to make chocolate brownies!
01:07Well, hold on. Nice try, boys.
01:10But no baking on Sundays.
01:12Ouch!
01:13Marco, get off!
01:14I've looked in the laundry basket and the dryer.
01:19Dad and Carrie will be here any minute.
01:20You've got plenty of other jeans you can wear.
01:21Carrie bought me those. I want to look special.
01:22You don't need to impress Carrie. She already thinks a lot of you.
01:23They've just got to ask me soon to come home for good.
01:24Hello?
01:25It's your dad.
01:26OK, why are you late?
01:27I've got to go.

04:21Bye.
04:22Bye.
04:23Sorry everybody!
04:24I almost pooped myself.
04:30He said give it to him.
04:37Everybody, except Tracy, Justine and Jackie, out of the kitchen now.
05:01Get on with it then, you haven't got much time.
05:19So you approve of cooking now, do you?
05:22Touch one of these and you're history.
05:25There for Justine's stepmother.
05:31Stick them up.
05:34Get lost, Marco.
05:36Tell them they have to.
05:38Go on, I can't stand to see a cowboy cry.
05:45Oi, Marco!
05:47Come back here.
05:49Hey.
05:51I've touched it now.
05:57Mmm, delicious.
05:59Thank you. If I say so myself, they're my best yet.
06:03We did all the work, you just bossed.
06:06And now it's time for your best clean-up.
06:09It's not my mess.
06:11Like she said, I was just supervising.
06:14I have to get ready.
06:29What Justine made for you.
06:43Thank you, lovely.
06:45Sit down.
06:48Let's go to your room, there's something I want to tell you.
06:51No.
06:53I mean, not until you have your tea first.
06:58Have one, they're delicious.
07:00I'm not very hungry.
07:02We'll have one.
07:04I made them specially, you have to have one.
07:14Please, take them away, they're making me sick.
07:17My cooking makes you sick.
07:19No, I didn't mean that, it's...
07:22No!
07:34I'm sorry, I couldn't help it, it's chocolate.
07:37I can't stand the taste or the smell of it.
07:40Chocolate makes you sick?
07:42That's seriously weird.
07:45I haven't been feeling well.
07:47I know why you came round here.
07:49Why don't you just tell the truth?
07:58I came here because I wanted to tell you myself.
08:02I...
08:04We, your dad and me...
08:08We're going to have a baby.
08:20Yeah!
08:28Don't you dare tell me everything will be alright!
08:31Because I know it won't!
08:34It might be.
08:36Didn't you hear her?
08:38She's having a baby of her own, she won't want me getting in the way.
08:41But your dad...
08:43He'll just do what Carrie wants, she doesn't want me.
08:46You don't know that.
08:48What happened to Tracy Beaker when her foster parents found out they were having a new baby?
08:52She got dumped back in the dumping ground!
09:00Sorry, I didn't mean it, it's just...
09:03No, you're right.
09:06Babies suck.
09:09I'm going to talk to her.
09:11Give her a few minutes.
09:13I'll make you some tea.
09:15I can't stomach tea either, or coffee.
09:18My sister-in-law was like that.
09:20She could only eat olives and crackers.
09:24Craved them.
09:25Ice cream, me.
09:26Could eat it by the gallon.
09:28Ah, ice cream.
09:30No problem.
09:32I've got to go.
09:35How could you do such a terrible thing to Justine?
09:37I don't know what you're talking about.
09:39How dumb do you have to be?
09:41That's enough, Tracy!
09:42No, it's alright.
09:44What exactly is it that I'm supposed to have done?
09:46You've made her dream!
09:48Stupid dreams about going home.
09:50Now you're going to dump her for a new baby.
09:53Is that what she thinks?
09:55That's what will happen.
09:57Everyone knows it.
10:00I'm having a baby too!
10:05You're right!
10:09There's a baby in the big tough cowboy's tummy.
10:13I have to have lots of ice cream.
10:15Now!
10:17I'm going to have a baby too.
10:19I'm going to have a baby too.
10:21I'm going to have a baby too.
10:23I'm going to have a baby too.
10:25I'm going to have a baby too.
10:27Now!
10:29Now why didn't I see that one coming?
10:34Go away.
10:36I don't want to hear your stupid excuses.
10:39I just wanted to show you something.
10:47The ultrasound picture.
10:50You're showing it off already?
10:52How gross is that?
10:55This isn't any old baby.
10:58It's Justine Littlewood's little brother or sister.
11:15This baby connects us all.
11:18You, your dad, me.
11:21It makes us a family.
11:24And as soon as we get things properly organised,
11:28we want you to come home and stay with us for good.
11:32That's what I really came to tell you.
11:52Right.
11:54Chocolate brownies.
11:56Double quantities.
11:58Told you there was nothing to worry about.
12:02It looks like an alien.
12:04That's normal.
12:06I thought it was going to look like you.
12:08Thanks.
12:10It's not every day I get to have a face like a baby's bum.
12:13You've done Goldilocks.
12:15You've seen Cinderella.
12:17You've done Goldilocks.
12:19You've seen Cinderella.
12:21But there's no-one quite like Pika.
12:25Stop it.
12:27Stop what?
12:31Well?
12:35My book with my name on the cover.
12:38My dream come true.
12:40How cool is this?
12:41It's mine.
12:42Says who?
12:43You'll all get your copies at the book launch tomorrow.
12:45Personally signed by the author, of course.
12:47Ooh, get her.
12:49Want to hear my other news?
12:50Yeah.
12:51Local TV are coming here to film it.
12:53No way!
12:54Really?
12:55Yeah.
12:56Where are you going?
12:57Well, I've got to read this before tomorrow.
12:59Why?
13:00Keep up, Cam.
13:01They're telling people they want to interview me.
13:04OK, well, just remember, it's fiction, not your life story.
13:08How is she going to read 300 pages before her bedtime?
13:11Just watch me.
13:45OK.
14:45Oh!
15:02No!
15:12Open up, Dustin!
15:15I don't know what you're talking about. When I woke up this morning, my bed was pumped
15:22with that bug water you call perfume. New hair, and even more lip gloss than usual.
15:28So, you're off to hug in the limelight. You know what TV's like. They'll be looking for
15:34one of the more gorgeous kids to interview. C'est moi.
15:45Think again, Spewbrain. Thou be interviewing me. I am the star, Trudy. Says who? Um, sorry,
16:01what letters does the name begin with? T? And R? Like, uh, Tracy? Is that the best you
16:07can do? Trudy's a tough, no-nonsense kid who's the queen of the scammers. Who else can it
16:12be, even in the last chapter? Course. You should have gone straight to the end like
16:19I always do. It saves time. Because if you had, you'd have known. So you did nick my
16:23book! OK, let's have something set up downstairs to start with, and then later on today we'll
16:37have the shot of the outside building. OK, looks great. It's him! Oh, yeah? Who? The
16:45bloke who interviewed Paula Radcliffe on the telly. So? He met Paula, the champion runner.
16:52I haven't met her. He has. He actually met her. He was in... You made your point. Cuckoo,
17:00cuckoo. You missed breakfast. Um, I overslept.
17:29This book is about me? Maybe a little. Definitely a lottle. You haven't read it. I know this
17:34is exciting, and everyone's hyped up, but this is Cam's day, so no muscling in. Ah,
17:40me? Oh, fantastic equipment. Hi, I wondered if you were my... Oi, fingers off! Oh, sorry.
17:57I don't know where to run the camera. Can I be your assistant today? Too busy, Sonny.
18:02Sonny, listen. Charlie Keen has work to do. Now run along, kids. Sonny? Meet the guy
18:10who put the pee in patronising. I'm Cam and I'm confident I will not give in to nerves.
18:18I'm Cam and I'm confident I will not give in to nerves. Might I suggest some lip gloss?
18:26What? Absolutely essential if you're on camera. Cam, why has your face gone a funny colour?
18:32Because all the blood's in her body has drained to her feet. She's clearly crippled with nerves.
18:37I won't be surprised if they turn that camera on and Cam is completely struck dumb. Thanks,
18:44Crash. Yes? So? So? Well, what did you think? Loved every single word. Oh, great. That is
19:03a weight off my mind. And you're OK about the ending? Best part of the book? Oh, brilliant.
19:10Tell you the truth, I was worried you wouldn't like it. As if. But I'm hungry. In a minute.
19:17But... In a minute. My spag bols are life support. When are we sitting these kids down
19:25for lunch? Sorry, I didn't realise it took so long to set everything up. Or for Mr Bigshot
19:32to do his hair. Now, the TV crew are only interviewing Cam and I, but if you pay me
19:46the ridiculously small amount of 50p each, I'll make sure you get featured in the background.
19:51If I pay you a pound, can I go on twice? It's not even definite they're going to interview
19:55you. Nice hat, Justine. Still haven't read the last chapter then, Beaker. Yeah, nice.
20:02OK, clear it. Um, I suggest we do my interview first so Cam can see there's nothing to worry
20:09about. Your interview? Me being the inspiration of the book. Who are you exactly? Tracy. T-R-A-C-Y
20:17without an E. You might want to subtitle that underneath me. You're a riot. But I'm here
20:22to interview the writer, no one else. We'll have you and all the kids on camera for the
20:30book signing. I don't do walk-ons. Like the hat. You go first in the queue. Hey, Beaker,
20:37look who the main attraction is now. Mr Keane, how was Paula Radcliffe? What? When you interviewed
20:44her. Sorry, kids, Charlie Keane's working. Why don't you go to the back of the group?
20:52And action. This is the very place where my book, The Dumping Ground Kids, is set. Cut!
21:09Action. And action. OK, this care home and the children in it really inspired me to write
21:16my book. Cut, cut! Sorry, we try and limit her contact with humans. Please, bribe her,
21:26lock her in a cupboard, anything but keep her out of my hair. That's easier said than
21:31done. Tracy's very persistent. I'm running out of time. I may have to drop this item.
21:37Oh, don't do that. My publishers will go spare. An idea, just very quickly interview
21:44Tracy. Look, I don't need anything but a chat with you. The kids are just colour. You wouldn't
21:49have to run it. OK, deal. OK, Tracy, very briefly, what's the story behind the book?
22:04Well, why don't you tell them about the last chapter, Beaker? Cut! Justine! What's going
22:14on? Tracy hasn't even finished your book. You said you'd read it. I have. Nearly. I've
22:23just got the last chapter to finish. I know, give me ten minutes, I'll read it. Maybe that's
22:27not a great idea. No, no, the more I think about it, the kid's right. The book is based
22:31on her. You read it, good idea. Now, run along. OK, Cam, let's get this in the can.
22:45So, Cam, what are you planning to write next? Um, the sequel to The Dumping Ground Kids.
22:52Great. That's you done, and me. Shall I get Tracy? No, no, job done. Thanks for your help.
22:59What, you said you'd talk to her? And you said we didn't have to run it. I'm never going
23:04to speak to you again! Oh, sorry. You don't realise I'm going to sue? Tracy, please.
23:09I hate you! Your stupid book made me out to be some kind of laughing stock. That's just
23:13not true. This is juicy, keep rolling. Cut. It made me out to be some kind of lonely, desperate
23:25saddo. But that's Trudy. But Trudy's me! No, she's made up. Trudy's not real. And I
23:33need her still living in the kids' home so she can star in the next book. You've written
23:37about me? You think I'm going to be until I'm 16? No one's going to fuster me. Of course
23:43they will. So what you really mean is, now you've stolen my life story, you're off.
23:56Goodbye, Cam. Now you're nearly famous, you won't be coming back here. Have a nice life,
24:04Cam. Tracy. What happened to the spag bol? Sorry, mate. The spag bol gave up the ghost
24:16hours ago. It's mush. Mr Key? Can I have a chat with you about Paula? What is wrong
24:24with you? Just a picture would do. How many times do I have to say this? Charlie Keen's
24:29working. Oi! All she wants is a chat and a picture. How much can that hurt? Yeah, nearly
24:35finished. I'll be glad to get out of this mad house. Don't worry, Jackie. I'll get you
24:41a picture.
24:54Oi! Charlie!
25:18Gotcha!
25:25I can make my world come true. All my dreams will see me through. And this light won't
25:42get me down. My dreams will turn things all around. With a smile upon my face. I can see
25:50a better place. Doesn't matter what may come my way. Believe me now, I will win someday.
