00:00Do you know my mum, Tracey Vicar?
00:06Morning!
00:08You'll know her, if you live on the Duke Estates.
00:18How's it going Tracey?
00:20Everyone knows Tracey Vicar from Marlborough House.
00:23Respect, respect.
00:26She even gets respect at Devonshire House.
00:29Come on, Jess.
00:31Come on, Jess.
00:33Come on, Mum, this way.
00:35You are speedy today, young lady.
00:37Come on, Jess, keep on.
00:39Hi.
00:41Oh, this way. Hang on.
00:43Why are you twisting me all up?
00:45There we go.
00:47Two said walking dogs was easy.
00:49Let's go.
00:51Come on.
00:53Hi.
00:55No, not in there.
00:57No, not in there.
00:59We'll get chicken later.
01:01Hang red.
01:03Come on.
01:05My mum knows everyone and she's done everything.
01:07Hi, Babs.
01:09Come on.
01:10She was a care worker, she sold cars, she did gardening, she ran a wine bar and everyone called it Tracey's.
01:17Even though that wasn't its name.
01:19It's just a bit grey in here, Fred. You could just take a special colour.
01:21Think about it.
01:23It's fine, Tracey.
01:25Now she's a dog walker and a waitress and loads of other things too.
01:29You're welcome.
01:31White or brown.
01:33Come on, dude.
01:35That's it.
01:36She's always doing at least three jobs at once.
01:38You're welcome.
01:39Come on, Fred.
01:40I'll be mate, Fred.
01:41It's very reasonable.
01:42We don't need redecorating.
01:46She'll have to move.
01:47If there's paying customers, I know.
01:50You are tighter than two clicks of paint, Fred.
01:53There you go.
01:55Come on, Fred.
01:56How about a blue?
01:58Orange.
01:59Me and Mum, we're a team.
02:02We do everything together.
02:14Some people think old stuff is just rubbish, but Mum taught me how to find hidden gems.
02:21Careful with those.
02:23Jess knows what she's doing.
02:24We're in here all the time, aren't we, Babs?
02:26Looking for priceless treasures to make our fortune.
02:34Mum, look.
02:38How much?
02:39Seeing as it's you two.
02:47When Mum was my age, she lived in a children's home.
02:50It had a proper name, but she only ever called it The Dumping Ground.
02:56All she wanted was to live with her mum in their own home.
03:00So I'm living my mum's dream.
03:03But my mum's story had a happy ending when she was adopted by my granny, Camilla Lawson,
03:09who's a real published writer.
03:11How do I know all this?
03:13Because my mum became a writer too.
03:15She wrote her own life story.
03:17But I was determined to win, and nothing was going to stop me.
03:21Swallowing the worm was easy, but keeping it down was impossible.
03:26I threw up with the force of a volcano!
03:28What happened to the worm?
03:31Oh, it was fine.
03:32I saw it in a patch of vomit and it just wriggled away.
03:35And that is how I won the dare game.
03:39So I said to Justine Littlewood, you can just...
03:41BOGGER!
03:42I love helping my mum mop the dogs.
03:51So long.
03:53Bye dear.
03:54Have a good day!
03:56Love you!
03:58Love you!
04:00We're not allowed to keep a dog in our flat, but mum says one day we'll buy our own house.
04:04And then we'll get a dog who can live with us forever.
04:08I believe her, because she always keeps her promises.
04:13She's strong and brave.
04:16She never ever cries.
04:18She only gets hay fever sometimes.
04:21But best of all, she's kind.
04:26And that's why my mum, Tracy Beaker, is the person I most admire.
04:32Thank you, Jess. Excellent work.
04:38It's great to see you building up your confidence.
04:42Yeah, but miss, she cheated.
04:45I didn't.
04:46You just wrote about your mum. Anyone could do that.
04:49You couldn't.
04:50Tyrone, the people we admire don't have to be famous.
04:54Sometimes they're people we know.
04:57People who inspire us to live our best life.
05:00So who inspires you the most?
05:01Little mushy!
05:03Thank you, Charlie. Very inspirational.
05:06Now, who's next?
05:07Hey, geeky-beeky. What are you reading?
05:11Nothing. Get off.
05:12Justine Littlewood was the meanest girl in the dumping ground.
05:13Stop it!
05:14Is this your mum's book?
05:15The one she wrote?
05:16Just give it back!
05:17Let go!
05:18Now look what you've done!
05:19Ow!
05:20Ow!
05:21My nose.
05:22Ow!
05:23Hey Geeky Beeky, what are you reading?
05:28Nothing, get off.
05:30Justine Littlewood was the meanest girl in the dumping ground.
05:34Stop it!
05:35Is this your mum's book?
05:36The one she wrote?
05:37Just give it back!
05:38Let go!
05:42Now look what you've done!
05:45Ow, my nose.
05:49Tyrone?
05:50There you go.
05:57Hello?
06:00What sort of accident?
06:02With who?
06:05How exactly?
06:20How could this happen?
06:21I thought this girl was supposed to have an anti-bullying policy.
06:23Tyrone wasn't bullying Jess.
06:24If anything he came off worse.
06:25Don't you dare blame this on Jess.
06:26This happened on your watch and I hold you fully responsible.
06:27It was just a nosebleed.
06:28It was all in the accident.
06:29He fainted!
06:30Poor Jess was terrified!
06:31You won't tell anyone, will you?
06:32You don't tell anyone my mum yelled at the teacher.
06:33Why not?
06:34I wish my mum would.
06:35I never liked it here anyway.
06:36I can't believe I trusted you in my daughter.
06:37I want a full investigation and someone should be sacked for this.
06:39Jess go and wait outside.
06:40Please, it was Miss Oliver's fault.
06:41You don't have to stand up for it.
06:42I didn't have to stand up for it.
06:43You didn't have to stand up for it.
06:44He came off worse.
06:45Don't you dare blame this on Jess.
06:46This happened on your watch and I hold you fully responsible.
06:47It was just a nosebleed.
06:48It was just a nosebleed.
06:49It's all in the accident.
06:50No, I wish my mum would.
06:52I never liked it here anyway.
06:53And I can't believe I trusted you and my daughter.
06:55I want a full investigation and someone should be sacked for this.
06:58Jess, go and wait outside.
06:59Please, it wasn't Miss Oliver's fault.
07:01You don't have to stand up for her.
07:03I want to.
07:05She's nice, not like Miss Vomit Bagley.
07:08Who?
07:09My old school teacher.
07:11Look, if I'm being honest, me and school, we're never really gone.
07:15I just wanted things to be different for Jess.
07:17They are.
07:18Jess is a delightful student.
07:20It's a privilege to teach her.
07:24I'm sorry for kicking off.
07:26You know, if you really want to work on your anger issues...
07:30Excuse me, I do not have anger issues.
07:32We all need to blow off steam sometimes.
07:35You know what I find helpful?
07:37Knitting?
07:38Kickboxing.
07:40Kickboxing?
07:41It's extremely cathartic.
07:43And good exercise.
07:44I can recommend a beginner's class if you're interested.
07:48Kickboxing.
07:49Excuse me, madam?
08:16Madam?
08:17Come on, ma'am.
08:19Come on, ma'am.
08:20Come on, Jess.
08:22Come on, ma'am.
08:29Mum, this place is really poor.
08:32It's all right.
08:33Seemed better.
08:34Can I help you, madam?
08:35I'm here for kickboxing lessons.
08:37You'll have to join first.
08:39Okay.
08:40Oh, here goes him, millionaires.
08:43Tracy Beaker.
08:46I'm sorry, do I know you?
08:48That's Sean Good to be the footballer.
08:50Retired footballer.
08:51Done money in a few years back.
08:52Risk at a game.
08:54You really don't remember.
08:56I'm sorry, I'm not really into sport.
08:57Think back.
08:59Empty house, cardboard furniture.
09:02Oh, football.
09:04No way, you're football.
09:05Of all the gyms and all the towns and all the world.
09:08She walks into mine.
09:09Come on.
09:09You got that from a movie.
09:11She's a smart one.
09:12Chip off the old block.
09:13You never said she knew Sean Godfrey.
09:15I only knew him as football.
09:16We used to hang out.
09:17Yeah, skipping school.
09:19Which is very bad and you should never, never do it.
09:21I wouldn't want to.
09:22Oh, those years ago and I never knew your real name.
09:25Well, I never forgot yours, Tracy Beaker.
09:28Hope you haven't paid anything yet.
09:30Your money's no good here.
09:32Hold on one second.
09:33I need you to sort Tracy out of the compliment.
09:35Does he own this place?
09:36Looks like it.
09:38You can bring your daughter.
09:40Your husband.
09:42Lucky man.
09:43He would be, if he existed.
09:47What about a boyfriend?
09:49What about it?
09:53That's great.
09:55So, how do I look?
09:57Beautiful.
09:58Thanks, Pam.
09:59Are you sure you're okay to sort out Jess's dinner?
10:01Yeah.
10:01We're making muffins and then we're going to get fried chicken from the shop.
10:04Ooh, sounds lovely.
10:06Maybe I'll just stay here.
10:07No, this is our special time.
10:09Fine, your granny can spoil you rotten.
10:11But tomorrow, it's extra broccoli.
10:14See you later.
10:15Love you.
10:16Love you too.
10:17Have fun with Sean Godfrey.
10:19She won't.
10:21You've decided already, have you?
10:22He's not mum's type.
10:38Ignore them.
10:38It's just paps.
10:39Don't let go!
10:46Thank you guys.
10:48All right ladies.
10:49Have a good bye, Sean!
11:07Thank you!
11:11So what are you drinking?
11:13Cristal? Don't throw you on?
11:15That's chubby.
11:17I know. I used to manage a bar.
11:19I can't believe the price they are.
11:21Beer, please.
11:23I'll rest the cards tonight, seeing as it's you.
11:25So?
11:27Would you make of this place?
11:29I can't believe people queue up and pay good money to get in here.
11:33I don't.
11:35They'd pay me to drink in here if they had to.
11:37I got too many Premier League stars in here, you know.
11:39I thought you didn't play football anymore.
11:41Still, one knows who I am.
11:45Wish I did.
11:47It's that Mum.
11:57What did she say about Sean Godfrey?
11:59Sean Godfrey is a boring show-off with an ego the size of a football pitch.
12:05Oh dear.
12:0757 minutes. A new record.
12:09What about Tristan from the city?
12:111 hour 22.
12:13This is the fastest dumping yet.
12:17Bye bye.
12:18My mum has very high standards.
12:19No man has ever been able to meet them yet.
12:21Bye now.
12:23There was the bank car.
12:25The bike car.
12:27And Blue.
12:28The skateboarder.
12:29Please Tracy.
12:30I really thought we had something here.
12:31We did.
12:32And now we don't.
12:33Sorry.
12:34Bye.
12:35Bye now.
12:36Bye bye.
12:37Bye bye.
12:38Bye.
12:39I quite liked Blue.
12:40I even thought he might be the one.
12:41She doesn't need the one.
12:42She's got us.
12:43Absolutely.
12:44And cupcakes.
12:45Dag
13:04Tracy.
13:05You can't go yet.
13:06Leave it.
13:07I'm warning you.
13:08Tracy please.
13:09What do I do?
13:10Nothing.
13:11I just need to see my daughter.
13:12Okay.
13:13Another day then.
13:14Look, I've got a lot going on in my life.
13:16I don't really have time for whatever this is.
13:18Chase, it's me.
13:21One of your oldest friends.
13:22If you say so.
13:23I can't believe you don't remember.
13:24I remember a kid called Football.
13:25He had a rough life.
13:26He was pretty rough himself.
13:28But at least he was real.
13:29So I'm not real now.
13:30Sean Goffrey's not real.
13:32He's just this big fake costume.
13:34But underneath that, somewhere, there's the same scared little boy.
13:38I just hope he's okay.
13:41Chasey!
13:43Look.
13:44You're right.
13:46I was being fake.
13:49I see it all the time.
13:52People try to impress me because I'm a footballer.
13:55I did the same thing to you because you're...
13:59Tracy Beaker.
14:03I've always wanted you to like me, but I just never knew how.
14:09Please.
14:11Now go home.
14:12Let's try again.
14:13And if I get to choose where we go.
14:19Sure.
14:19Sure.
14:20I don't know.
14:28Let's try again.
14:29Let's try again.
14:29Let's try again.
14:30Let's try again.
14:35Let's try again.
14:41What?
14:42You're felt, huh?
14:49Just me.
14:56This is your name?
14:58My name is.
15:02That won't jump.
15:12Why did you kiss him?
15:14What?
15:15I saw you from the balcony with Sean Godfrey.
15:17Well, you should have been in bed asleep.
15:19So should you, you said you hated him.
15:21I never said that.
15:22I mean, Sean's a bit of a show-off, but he's okay.
15:24I think you'll really like him.
15:26You're going to see him again?
15:28If that's okay with you.
15:30Mum, he's not the one, is he?
15:32Don't ask me, what do I know?
15:34I thought your dad was the one.
15:36Sorry, you'd always have a girlfriend.
15:38I know.
15:40Just be careful.
15:41I don't want you to get hurt.
15:43Why is that funny?
15:45Because I'm the mum.
15:47I'm supposed to look after you, okay?
15:49Remember, nobody hurts the beaker girls.
15:57That's it.
15:59Good girl, Tracy.
16:01Keep your focus.
16:05Would it want to be that guy?
16:07Four.
16:09Sure you don't want to go?
16:13You can imagine it's my face.
16:15No, thank you.
16:21What are you playing?
16:23It's not a game.
16:24That is the dog's phone.
16:25You girls thinking of getting a dog?
16:27One day.
16:29I'm just looking.
16:31Which one's your favourite?
16:33Dogs aren't toys.
16:35They're a very serious commitment.
16:37It's Alfie.
16:38Alfie is her favourite.
16:39Jess, show him.
16:41Okay.
16:43That's Alfie.
16:45He's a cute little fella.
16:47Says he's good with children.
16:49Yes, but we're not all our dogs in our flat.
17:01Can't we just go say it counts?
17:03Not this time.
17:05Sean really wants to show you this house.
17:07But this is not another boring fancy restaurant.
17:09Jess Beaker.
17:10Sean has paid for all these really lovely expensive meals.
17:13At the very least you could just try to make an effort.
17:15Okay?
17:17Hey gorgeous girl.
17:18Hey Jess.
17:19Hello Sean Godfrey.
17:21Can you show us how to do those tricks?
17:23It takes a lot of practice and training.
17:25You know I have a youth coaching session at my gym.
17:27How much does that cost?
17:29Free.
17:30It's a friend to Jess.
17:31Yep.
17:32That's me.
17:33My best mate.
17:34Can I have a selfie for my mum?
17:35You were her favourite.
17:36Was I?
17:37And me.
17:38I want one for my dad.
17:39Okay.
17:40Come on.
17:41Let's go over here.
17:42Let's go over here.
17:43Okay.
17:44Who's first?
17:45Me.
17:46Me.
17:47Okay.
17:48Go on.
17:49He's next.
17:50Let's go.
17:52No worries.
17:53You alright?
17:54You tell me you think as we're best mates, you liar.
17:56I didn't lie.
17:57You know you did.
17:58We're not friends.
17:59Well, I want to be friends.
18:02With me or with stupid Sean Godfrey?
18:04Yeah, that's good.
18:06Nice man.
18:07No.
18:08Why not?
18:09He talks about football all the time and he's always making his go for meals and stupid
18:14days out.
18:15Like a family.
18:16Nightmare.
18:17Somebody call the feds.
18:18There you go.
18:19Thank you so much.
18:20Thank you so much.
18:22No problem.
18:23No problem.
18:24There you go.
18:25Come on Jess, come over.
18:26There you go.
18:27Alright.
18:28No worries.
18:29Thanks so much.
18:30What does Cameron say to you?
18:31We were just talking.
18:32It's okay, my mate.
18:33Thanks.
18:34Thanks.
18:35Is this your house?
18:36Yeah.
18:37Come on in.
18:38Come on in.
18:39It's so big.
18:40Empty.
18:41Empty.
18:42The house was always a mess.
18:43when I was a kid.
18:44I like it like this.
18:45It's minimalist.
18:46very classy.
18:47Very classy.
18:48Is this your house?
18:55Yeah.
18:56Come on in.
19:05It's so...
19:07Big.
19:09Empty.
19:10The house was always a mess when I was a kid.
19:12I like it like this.
19:14It's minimalist.
19:15Very classy.
19:18Where's all your stuff?
19:20Watch out.
19:21Boss lady's here.
19:22That's right.
19:22Don't you forget it.
19:24Hello, Jess.
19:25I'm Rosalie.
19:25I'm the housekeeper.
19:27Don't you keep your own house?
19:29I'd like to see that.
19:30No, I just live here.
19:32Rosalie's in charge of this place, including me.
19:34Afternoon tea will be served at 4pm sharp.
19:36Don't let my scones go cold.
19:37Thanks, Rosalie.
19:39I've got a bit of work to do, so...
19:41Do you week of girls want to chill out in the pool?
19:43You've got a pool?
19:45We didn't bring our costumes.
19:46I did.
19:48Oh, my God.
20:09The shanglet is real lucky.
20:12So are we.
20:13Look at us.
20:13We're living the dream.
20:15Yeah.
20:15Imagine if we could stay here always, and we never had to go back to that pokey little
20:19flat.
20:20But it's our home.
20:22Mum, we are going home, aren't we?
20:24Tell me we're going home.
20:26Mum.
20:29When I was your age, I spent my whole life moving around.
20:33I've always tried to protect you from that.
20:35So, why do you want to move now?
20:37Well, things have changed.
20:39Because of Sean Godfrey.
20:41Well, yes, but it's not all about him.
20:43It's about what's the best for us.
20:45You.
20:46I mean, don't you want to live in a mansion?
20:47Mum.
20:48Mum.
20:49Mum.
20:50Mum.
20:51Mum.
20:51Mum.
20:54Hello.
20:55I didn't know you had a dog.
20:57Yeah, you recognise her?
20:58Alfie!
20:59It's official.
21:00Bassey checked everything out and said that Alfie can live here with Sean.
21:03And if you'd like, so can we.
21:07We thought you'd be pleased.
21:09Alfie's going to love it here.
21:10He's got this huge garden.
21:11He can go out running with Sean every day.
21:13Your mum's always said you've wanted a dog.
21:14Stop telling me what I want!
21:17Jess!
21:17Jess!
21:18Jess!
21:33Thanks.
21:41We shouldn't have sprung it on you like that.
21:44We just wanted it to be a wonderful surprise.
21:48Alfie was a wonderful surprise.
21:50It's just everything else.
21:53The mansion, the pool, the home cinema.
21:57I mean, Sean Godfrey.
21:58I know.
22:00He's OK, really, you know, Jess.
22:02You really like him.
22:06Don't you, Mum?
22:09Yeah, I really do.
22:11Just wish you did.
22:13And I could give you a proper start in life.
22:14What do you mean we've got the best life?
22:17We know that.
22:18It's the way people talk about this estate.
22:20I just want you to do better than I did.
22:32Sean, your guests are here.
22:33How long do I have to stay here?
22:35We agreed.
22:36One dinner, one film.
22:37And you promised to give Sean a chance.
22:38Girls!
22:39Come through.
22:40We're having steak and chips.
22:41My favourite.
22:42Mmm.
22:44Don't.
22:47Alfie!
22:49Alfie!
22:50Come on, Jess, eat up.
23:11Mine's not cooked, it's bleeding.
23:13That's because it's rare.
23:14Shall I just pop it back in the pan for a bit?
23:16And lose all the flavour.
23:18Looks like I need to teach you girls
23:20the finer things in life.
23:21And if you don't like it, just eat the chips.
23:24Chips.
23:25That's all I ever got to eat when I was a kid.
23:27I would have killed for a big, fat, juicy steak
23:29just like that.
23:30Try it.
23:31Just one bite.
23:32Yeah, just one bite, Jess.
23:33It's not a lot to ask.
23:34So, how did training go today?
23:36Is Tyrone still your biggest fan?
23:46Are you feeding my prime fillet steak to the dog?
23:48I don't like it while I cut Alfie, have it?
23:50You didn't even try it.
23:54Get down!
23:55Stop that!
23:57You didn't hurt him!
23:57Yes, you did, you grey big stupid bully!
24:00Do not speak to me like that!
24:01You don't get to tell me what to do!
24:02Are you going to let her get away with that?
24:07Yes, I am.
24:09She's right.
24:11No one gets to tell the Beaker girls what to do.
24:13Come on, Jess.
24:14Sean's not a bad man.
24:25He just loses his temper sometimes.
24:27Yeah, that's not all he's lost.
24:28Shall I call you a taxi?
24:29No, it's okay.
24:31We'll walk.
24:44I can't believe you've done this.
25:00Isn't that the pink Cadillac Granny Carly used to drive?
25:03She never actually had one.
25:05It was all in my imagination.
25:06Well, this one's yours.
25:07Well, I don't want it.
25:08Well, of course I want it, but I need you to respect me and my daughter.
25:13I do respect you.
25:14Then stop trying to buy us!
25:16I'm not.
25:17I just wanted to give you a present.
25:19Because I love you.
25:20I love you.
25:28Can we go now?
25:29Stay.
25:30I'm begging you.
25:31Sean, stop.
25:32I wanted to surprise you.
25:34Look.
25:36Trace.
25:36Jess.
25:38I'm sorry it all went wrong.
25:40It's all my fault.
25:42Stop it, you idiot.
25:43You're going to get all muddy.
25:44I deserve it.
25:45I'm a clumsy idiot.
25:46But I want to be better.
25:49You make me better.
25:50Only you can do that, Sean.
25:51I'm trying.
25:53Please, if you'll let me.
25:56Okay, just get up before you ruin your trousers.
26:03Tracey Beaker.
26:06No way.
26:07You have got to be joking.
26:08Mum.
26:09I've never been more serious about anything in my life.
26:11Tracey, I know I've made a lot of mistakes.
26:17And I know I don't deserve you.
26:20But if there's one thing I'm sure of, Tracey,
26:22it's that I love you more than anything in the world.
26:26I'd do anything for you, Trace.
26:29Anything.
26:32So.
26:36Tracey Beaker.
26:37Will you marry me?
26:46Like I said, me and my mum, Tracey Beaker, are a team.
26:51We look after each other, and we don't need anyone else.
26:54And we definitely don't need Sean Godfrey.
26:58I can make my world come true.
27:01All my dreams will see me through.
27:04And the sight won't get me down.
27:07My dreams will turn things all around.
27:09Cause I don't want to come my way.
27:12But leave me now, I don't win some way.
