00:00I can make my world come true. All my dreams will see me through. Doesn't matter what may
00:12come my way. Believe me now, I will win some day.
00:18Celebrity's falling over! Celebrity's falling over!
00:22Alright, alright, keep your wigs on.
00:24Celebrity's falling over! Celebrity's falling over!
00:27Oh, so did you see?
00:29Sorry mate, I promised I'd sit with Bounce there.
00:34Celebrity's falling over! Celebrity's falling over!
00:37Celebrity's falling over!
00:38And we're away.
00:40Hurry up Bounce, we're missing the show.
00:42It's not my fault, someone deleted all the settings.
00:44I bet it was Justine, she's always messing with the remote.
00:47I'll mess with your head if you don't watch it.
00:50Can you fix it Bounce?
00:52I'll try.
00:53Oh, you're a genius.
00:55Er, it may take a while.
00:57But we'll miss the programme.
00:59You know, if we had a digital plasma screen.
01:02Ooh, get you!
01:03Youse look like a bit more bling are you Wolfie?
01:05Don't be stupid, I was just saying.
01:12Bit of a loner, ain't he?
01:13I'm off for a rainy day.
01:23Aahhh!
01:34We're supposed to be doing a homework boxy, not messing about.
01:37You're becoming right good at two-shoes, you are real well had.
01:40No, I'm not, but if Mike catches us playing with this
01:42is playing with this we'll be growing to a 50. Quick, put it in reverse!
01:47It's sick! Go on and get it! Why me? This is your idea!
01:52Fine, I'll go in. At least I'll be away from the smell of chicken.
01:56Ch-ch-ch-ch-chicken! Wolfie, could you come over to the office for a moment please?
02:04Roxy!
02:07Quick, hide!
02:12Right. I thought you should know, another one of these came for you today.
02:20Don't want it.
02:21There's plenty of kids here who would give their right arm for something like this.
02:25Just put it in the drawer with the others.
02:28Okay. Your call.
02:33Boy, that was close. What are you doing?
02:36Looking through the drawers, stupid.
02:38Roxy, that's private.
02:39So?
02:41They might come back.
02:42Loading egg yet, chicken boy?
02:45What is it?
02:49Over a thousand pounds, all in cheques, made out to Wolfie. His parents must be loaded.
02:54And he obviously doesn't want it, all the money for us.
02:57You're not going to steal it?
02:58There's more than one way to skin a wolf for you. We could be his new best friends.
03:02You mean, make him like us so much that he gives us the money?
03:05Exactly.
03:06But, pretending to be made to him, just to get something, isn't that a bit mean?
03:11Over a thousand pounds, Rio. Think about it.
03:14We could take a holiday. You, me and Chantelle.
03:18For well odds. Back together again.
03:37Finally, the well odds are in the money.
03:41What money?
03:42Mind your own business.
03:44Oh, Mike. Rio and Roxy are plotting something.
04:07Love, fancy a game of footy?
04:09Sure, if I can be my Chloe.
04:13Bouncer, where'd you come from?
04:15A quiet farm, a wobbly banister. Someone could have had an accident.
04:19Never noticed that.
04:21How about we fix it, together?
04:23Oh, can't Mike do it?
04:25Cutbacks. He's rusted up his feet.
04:27Come on, Barry. It's dead simple.
04:29Don't call me simple, Paul.
04:31Not you, Barry. The banister.
04:33Come on, let's go get the screwdriver.
04:35Screwdriver. Come on, then.
04:36Let's go.
04:37Screwdriver.
04:38Well, maybe we can have that game of footy later.
04:44Right. Time to move in for the kill.
04:48Wait.
04:50None of us have really been that friendly with one another.
04:53I know.
04:55Wait.
04:57None of us have really been that friendly with Wolfie before.
05:00He might get suspicious.
05:03What do you suggest, Einstein?
05:06We need a beard.
05:07A beard? Mike, then?
05:09No, idiot.
05:11A person who acts as a disguise for us.
05:14Someone sweet and friendly.
05:16We're already split in the cash-free ways.
05:18Don't want anyone else muscling in.
05:20So we don't tell them the real reason.
05:22We just need to find the right person.
05:29Hey.
05:30Anyone fancy making some sock puppets?
05:38See Wolfie?
05:39He's in the games room, I think.
05:41Why?
05:42Got a present for him.
05:43Only his birthday, is it?
05:45No. His aura's been quite dark lately.
05:48We just wanted to cheer him up.
05:50Who's we?
05:51Me, Rebecca and the Wailards.
05:54Those guys are so thoughtful, aren't they?
06:01But I don't understand.
06:03It's nothing.
06:04Just a gesture to show how much we care.
06:07And that we want to be friends.
06:09Don't know what to say.
06:11No one's ever done anything like this for me before.
06:14Coffee cream's my favourite.
06:16We want to know all your favourite things, Wolfie.
06:18Well, I love hulling globetrotters,
06:23building dens,
06:27hunting for toads.
06:28Hunting for toads? That's our favourite thing too.
06:30Yeah, totally.
06:34Come on.
06:35Let's go make a nice padded box for the toads.
06:38I'll go get my wellies.
06:42Talk about a piece of cake.
06:45Talk about a piece of cake.
06:47This time next week he'll like us so much,
06:49he'll be begging us to take his money.
06:51A thousand pounds. We'll be rolling in it.
07:14Four more.
07:30How come Wolfie never said he was rich?
07:32Because he knew some unscrupulous slimeballs would take advantage.
07:34He'll be gutted when he finds out.
07:36That's the only reason that lot are sucking up to him.
07:38We need to tell him.
07:39Yeah. If he wants to hide his cash away, that's his business.
07:43Seems like an awful waste though.
07:45Imagine what you could buy with that kind of cash.
08:08Justine's right. We can't let Wolfie waste all that dosh.
08:11So what do we do?
08:12Play those snakes at their own game.
08:14You mean we suck up to Wolfie too?
08:16It won't be sucking up.
08:17More like doing him a favour. Protecting him.
08:20Right. Showing him who his real mates are.
08:22And if he wants to feign cuss before he has the cash later,
08:24that's entirely up to him.
08:26Exactly. Come on, we've got work to do.
08:28And remember, this isn't for us. It's for Wolfie.
08:34I can't believe it.
08:35The whole hour searching and not one toad.
08:37Still had fun though, didn't we?
08:40Best day of my life.
08:41Me too. Thanks, guys.
08:44Wolfie, just the person we wanted to see.
08:46Little Birdie told us you like the Harlem Globetrotters.
08:48So, why don't we go shoot some hoops?
08:50What? Me and you guys?
08:52Who else? Come on.
08:57I do believe we have a contest on our hands.
09:01I suppose I'd better be getting back then.
09:04What is that?
09:05My gloves are late.
09:07Mike.
09:08I think a letter would have been more personal.
09:10Oh, ha, ha.
09:12This is somebody's idea of a joke.
09:14It's probably some of the kids from the village.
09:16We'll clean it up for you.
09:19Thanks, lads.
09:22We will, will we?
09:25Come on, bruv.
09:26Another job for the Chuckle Brothers, eh?
09:32I don't do cleaning.
09:33Yes, come on.
09:35That's all.
09:36Cut, Wolf?
09:37Yeah.
09:38You're casual.
09:42All hail to King Wolfie.
09:45You've won the dumping ground competition.
09:47King for a day.
09:49Since when has there been a King?
09:51Since this morning, brainiac.
09:54You get to do whatever you like.
09:56Borrow people's stuff, wear people's clothes,
09:58eat whatever you want.
10:03But...
10:05Why me?
10:06We didn't pick you, Wolfie.
10:08The universe did.
10:09Because it knows when you need a friend.
10:13King for a day.
10:14Can't tell that.
10:35Surprise!
10:38For me?
10:39Well, we knew how much you liked building dens.
10:41Cheers, guys.
10:43You're best mates ever.
10:47I think it's time we had a little chat.
10:49Don't you?
10:51I know you again, Justin Littlewood.
10:53Well, we saw Wolfie first and he's ours.
10:55You can't own people, Roxy.
10:57You can't pretend to like them just because you want their money.
10:59You're no different.
11:00You never bothered Wolfie before you knew he was loaded.
11:02I never bothered Wolfie before you knew he was loaded.
11:04What?
11:05So you've lied to me?
11:07You said that this was to cheer him up, not to take his money.
11:10Mikey, you're right.
11:12You lot have been competing for Wolfie's friendship
11:14just because you've already got a few quid.
11:17Because if you have...
11:18You're exactly like my parents.
11:26They were always trying to buy me off with presents
11:28to make up for what they did to me.
11:30I thought you lot cared about me.
11:33But it turns out you're exactly the same.
11:38Wolfie!
11:42Wolfie?
11:43Wolfie, wait!
11:45Wolfie! Not in there, it's not safe!
11:56Quick, get him out! Wolfie!
11:59You all right there, mate?
12:00Yeah, I think so.
12:02Come on, come on.
12:03All right, all right, give me some air.
12:05There's no harm done.
12:06You scared us to death.
12:07Yeah, we were really worried.
12:10Honestly?
12:11Honestly.
12:13Someone's taken all the screws out.
12:14What kind of an idiot would do something like that?
12:17Me.
12:18What?
12:20I don't understand.
12:22Well, it was just...
12:23When I fixed the TV for everyone the other day,
12:25it felt like I was home again.
12:26And I figured,
12:27as long as there was things for me to fix, then...
12:29You had reason to stay.
12:31So, the banister, the graffiti,
12:34that was you too?
12:37Wolfie could have been really hurt.
12:38I know, it was stupid.
12:40I'm so sorry.
12:41Look, show's over.
12:42Bouncer, looks like you have a real job to do now.
12:44You reckon you can fix that?
12:45Sure can.
12:47Wolfie, I'm so sorry.
12:50We convinced ourselves we were doing this for you,
12:53but it was partly about the cash.
12:55It's you we really care about.
12:57Money's not important.
12:59Money in itself isn't bad, guys.
13:00It depends on what you do with it.
13:01I know.
13:03And I've been thinking,
13:04it's time I spent my cash wisely.
13:09You know what, Paddy?
13:10I reckon this best pinball machine ain't country.
13:13You're right there, brother.
13:14Lucky our mate had a few bob to pay for it.
13:17Someone mentioned my name?
13:25Oh, you, stick around.
13:26There's more Beaker to come.
13:39This is so unfit.
13:40We were only having a laugh.
13:42Come on, Elaine.
13:43Where's your sense of humour?
13:44I'm sick of being the target of your practical jokes.
13:47You?
13:48The target?
13:49Whatever gave you that idea?
13:51Left a bit.
13:52No, no, no.
13:53Right a bit.
13:56This way.
13:58Steady.
14:00Fire!
14:09Chill, Elaine.
14:10Egg looks supposed to be really good for your hair.
14:12This is not odd.
14:13I've had enough of you in a...
14:18Wait.
14:19What happened?
14:21Rio was being helpful.
14:23You asked me to put the bins out.
14:24Out the bedroom window?
14:41You kids have no respect whatsoever for us.
14:44Mike's right.
14:45You're going to have to stay here for an hour and reflect on your behaviour.
14:48Ooh.
14:49You're so strict, Elaine.
14:50Which is a good thing.
14:51Strictness is necessary in your line of work.
14:53Pity we can't hang around to admire it.
14:55Wait, where do you think you're going?
14:57We'd love to stay, but we've made other plans.
14:59Busy, busy.
15:00The...
15:08Shelley!
15:09What a nice surprise.
15:12All the usual suspects, I see.
15:14Plus a new face.
15:16You must be Rio Wellard.
15:18And you are?
15:19I'm Shelley Appleton.
15:20I'm your temporary head care worker.
15:22Hi, Shelley.
15:24Sorry, Mike Milligan.
15:25I'm your temporary care worker, Cook.
15:27And General, Mr Fixit.
15:29Well, mister, fix this.
15:31Are you two responsible for this?
15:34Who?
15:35Us!
15:53Right, I'm in charge now, and I'm going to start by upping punishment times.
15:57Excellent idea.
15:59Let's see, there are five of you, so five hours sounds about right.
16:03But that's all day.
16:04Yep.
16:05What are we supposed to do for that long?
16:07You'll have to amuse yourselves.
16:13Shouldn't be too hard.
16:15Easy.
16:23I'm something beginning with B.
16:27Bored.
16:29Give me a B.
16:30A.
16:32Give me an O.
16:33O.
16:34Oh, forget it.
16:35I can't believe you idiots like Shelley.
16:37Stop moaning.
16:38Could be worse.
16:39Like how, exactly?
16:41Shelley could have made us taste her cooking.
16:43What's so bad about that?
16:45Trust me, you never have.
16:48What's so bad about that?
16:50Trust me, you never want to go near her spaghetti bolognese.
16:57I realised as soon as I saw it.
16:59Her sauce was part of an evil plot.
17:01That stuff could be dangerous in the wrong hands.
17:03And something told me Shelley's were the wrong hands.
17:08This sauce would spell disaster for kids everywhere.
17:11One drop of the stuff and your childhood was gone.
17:15It was an age accelerator.
17:17The whole planet had just 15 minutes left.
17:20A gas marker.
17:23We were up against an evil genius.
17:26A plan to make the universe an adult-only zone.
17:30All adults were beamed up to Shelley's spaceship before they turned grey and wrinkly.
17:34The kids of planet Earth were doomed.
17:39There was only one chance.
17:42Build their own spaceship and fight back.
17:47A few tweaks.
17:50And it was ready.
17:57OK, time to lock and load.
17:59Everyone wanted to pilot the beast, but there was only one guy up to the job.
18:04Fasten your seatbelts.
18:07Operation Spag Bollies.
18:13Go!
18:35Go!
18:46Shelley thought her plan was foolproof.
18:48Yeah, right.
18:57They sent their best fighters to wipe us out.
18:59But with the fate of the world's children resting on our shoulders, nothing could stop us.
19:05Yeah!
19:09It looked like an impossible task.
19:13For a normal kid, that is.
19:17Time was running out.
19:19But he listened to the inner voice.
19:21Not let the source be with you.
19:23Oh, no!
19:28No!
19:29Shelley's source was about to explode.
19:31He had just seconds to escape.
19:33Bags of time.
19:41Mission Spag Boll is complete.
19:46Woo-hoo!
19:49And the staff never bothered us again.
19:55What do you want, Grandad?
19:57Oh, charming.
19:59I'll keep these for myself, then, shall I?
20:01No! Mike, no!
20:04Enjoy. But...
20:06don't tell Shelley.
20:08You're a star.
20:12You're a star?
20:14You think he's Mr Nice Guy, don't you?
20:18Think again.
20:21Mr Nice Guy's just a front.
20:25Really, he's mad, Mike.
20:32He's secretly out to destroy everything we kids love.
20:45And no-one's saved the dumping ground kids
20:47from the invincible Mad Mike.
20:53But wait, what's this?
20:55Is it a boy, or is it a spider?
20:58No, it's Tarantula Boy.
21:01There was a time when he was just an average K-Home kid.
21:04He was forced to work 30 hours a day,
21:06nine days a week.
21:08But no matter how spotless he made the place,
21:11Mad Mike always found some dirt somewhere.
21:17The poor little boy looked doomed.
21:27Tarantula Boy won, Big Hairy Monster's nil.
21:31Life was never quite the same after that.
21:36He'd found his true destiny.
21:44Tarantula Boy was born.
21:49Oi! No-one goes extra limbs and threatens me and my mates.
21:53What the?
21:56Take this!
21:58And that!
22:00Take this, you Big Hairy Monster!
22:06Oops.
22:14Tarantula Boy won.
22:16Big Hairy Monster's won.
22:18He needed help, but who?
22:20Who could he turn to?
22:26They knew exactly what to do.
22:31Was time running out for Tarantula Boy?
22:34Of course not.
22:45Poor Mad Mike.
22:47Not a leg to stand on.
22:49Tarantula Gang too.
22:51Big Hairy Monster's won.
22:53Finished.
22:54Oh, someone get the straitjacket.
22:56I was only trying to ease the boredom.
22:57Better than sitting and looking at the old wee mug.
22:59Don't start on me.
23:00It was you and your dustbin gag that got us here in the first place.
23:03What? And you should've been watered if I didn't?
23:05Don't start on her then!
23:09Will you keep the noise down?
23:10Why should we?
23:11This is barbaric.
23:12Social services will hear about this.
23:14I am social services.
23:19I am social services.
23:20Oh, she's such a pain.
23:21She's harmless.
23:22She's stupid, but she's harmless.
23:25She's not stupid if she makes out.
23:27Once, she ruled over an entire kingdom.
23:32A land where kids were locked up.
23:34Just for being kids.
23:44The evil, child-catching beasts that lived there hated all children.
23:48The streets weren't safe, and everyone kept themselves hidden.
23:51This was a creature so hideous, no one even dared to look at its face.
23:59The child-catcher could smell a victim several miles away.
24:02Don't be scared, my lovelies.
24:05Come and get your presents.
24:13Those two poor, unfortunate souls didn't stand a chance.
24:19They were locked up, and the key thrown away.
24:25They needed a brave hero to come to the rescue,
24:27but Tracey was fed up of always having to save the day.
24:31And so she left.
24:33No, come back, Tracey!
24:34We need you!
24:35Help us!
24:36Help us!
24:37Help us!
24:38Help us!
24:39Help us!
24:40Help us!
24:41Help us!
24:42Help us!
24:43Help us!
24:44Help us!
24:45Help us!
24:46Help us!
24:47Help us!
24:51So with Tracey gone, the inmates settled down to a lifetime of chore and housework horror.
25:05But being the unselfish, wonderful superhero she is,
25:08Tracey decided to drop some presents off to her old mates.
25:13But these weren't your usual soft, cuddly teddy bears.
25:19These were jumping round kids.
25:28The child catcher didn't give up easily.
25:34But I soon had her dancing to a different tune.
25:39Yay! Go Tracey!
25:41Yay!
25:48Sorted. Everyone rescued.
26:02Well, five hours are up.
26:03I think that lot will have definitely got in line by now, don't you?
26:07Definitely.
26:12What?
26:14What are you doing?
26:15We're amusing ourselves.
26:17Like you said.
26:18We found something that really makes us laugh.
26:20So really bargaining.
26:21Stupid.
26:22Mad.
26:23Oh? What's that?
26:24You!
26:27Freedom!
26:36Oh, it's good to be back.
26:41Oh, it's good to be back.
26:42Oh, it's good to be back.
26:43Oh, it's good to be back.
26:44Oh, it's good to be back.
