- 00:02This programme contains strong language.
- 00:20All right? You ain't going to believe this.
- 00:22What? Mr Perkins.
- 00:24What about him?
- 00:26He's dead.
- 00:27He's dead?
- 00:30Are you joking?
- 00:32No.
- 00:35Way!
- 00:37BOTH: Way!
- 00:39Way!
- 00:40# He's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead!
- 00:44# He's dead! He is dead!
- 00:48# He's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead!
- 00:51# He's dead! He is dead! #
- 00:59Basically, Mr Perkins was our old woodwork teacher
- 01:02and he was a massive prick.
- 01:04Yeah. He used to be just plain nasty, wasn't he, Kurts?
- 01:07Yeah. He always used to say, "Oh, Kerry and Kurtan,
- 01:09"you'll do..." "Nothing with your lives."
- 01:12Which is a bit rich, to be honest, coming from him, who's now dead.
- 01:15Yeah.
- 01:16# He's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead! #
- 01:18I think it's disgusting, what yous is doing, celebrating a man's death.
- 01:22Shut up, Len, you're boring.
- 01:24Yeah, well, I think it's disgusting you not celebrating the man's death.
- 01:27Charming. Hogwarts is that way, Dumbledore.
- 01:31Idiot man.
- 01:33He used to call us...
- 01:36Ren and Stimpy, didn't he?
- 01:37Yeah. Tweedledum and Tweedledee.
- 01:39Pinky and Perky.
- 01:41Asterix and Obelix.
- 01:42Noel Edmonds and Mr Blobby.
- 01:44The Neville brothers.
- 01:45He used to say I looked like the puppet off the Dolmio advert.
- 01:50It's just, I...I knew this day would come, but I just,
- 01:53I actually can't believe it's here, do you know what I mean?
- 01:56All right, Mand? No, I'm not all right,
- 01:58some little old blind man with a guide dog walked into a bin
- 02:01outside my house.
- 02:02Shit, is he all right?
- 02:03He won't be when I've got my hands on him.
- 02:05Poor Tyson was so scared, he's run up a tree and ate a bird's nest.
- 02:08So I'm going to find him and break his legs for him.
- 02:11See how he likes it.
- 02:12You see him, you send him my way, yeah?
- 02:15All right, you fucking psychopath.
- 02:16Who's a psychopath?
- 02:19Er...
- 02:20The blind man.
- 02:24Yeah, I know. Poor little baby birds
- 02:26got their guts sucked out their arseholes cos of him.
- 02:28Evil bastard.
- 02:31Fucking weirdo.
- 02:32Who's a weirdo?
- 02:36Er...Kurtan.
- 02:42Yeah, I know.
- 02:44Come on, Tyson, you fucking prick.
- 02:47How the fuck did she hear all that?
- 02:48Erm...
- 02:51She's like a fucking bat.
- 02:53People are scared of Mandy, but I ain't.
- 02:56Because we're both on the same level of hardness.
- 02:58It's, like, Kane isn't scared of The Undertaker
- 03:01because they're both Brothers of Destruction.
- 03:04There's a kid crying over there.
- 03:06Do you want me to...? I can tell him to shut the fuck up if you want?
- 03:09She belongs in a nuthouse, mate.
- 03:10She is fucking nuts.
- 03:13A very bad egg.
- 03:16I like Kerry. Her mum's...
- 03:17Mum's a good fighter, her mum, down the pub and that.
- 03:21If you was in trouble, you can always rely on her mum.
- 03:23Kerry's all right. Kurtan's a...
- 03:25He's a fucking moron.
- 03:40SHE GASPS
- 03:41Our old prom photo, yeah?
- 03:44Ten minutes after that was taken,
- 03:45Kurtan vommed all the way down his ivory tie.
- 03:48Yeah, only cos I kept spiking my own drinks. Yeah.
- 03:51Oh, Kerr, our old detention cards from Mr Perkins.
- 03:55"Kerry and Kurtan, lunchtime detention
- 03:57"for making crass song in woodwork class."
- 04:00Wait...I'll get it.
- 04:00KEYBOARD PLAYS TUNE

- 04:37Listen to this.
- 04:39"Kerry and Kurtan, lunchtime detention
- 04:41"for making Robert Robinson
- 04:42"ask the teacher what rimming is."
- 04:44Who's Rob Robinson?
- 04:46You don't remember Robert Robinson?
- 04:48No.
- 04:49He was in our class in Year 6
- 04:51for, like, two terms and he just vanished.
- 04:53No-one ever heard of him again.
- 04:57He had... Instead of a rucksack, yeah,
- 04:59he had a suitcase on wheels.
- 05:01And you started his nickname, which was Terminal Three.
- 05:04You started that. That was brilliant.
- 05:07You don't remember that?
- 05:08Robert Robinson.
- 05:10You don't remember?
- 05:18Year 6 camping trip, he brought in an old army camp bed
- 05:21and it had blood on it.
- 05:23No.
- 05:25We used to bog-wash him so much,
- 05:26the bleach in the toilet actually turned his hair white.
- 05:29No. Oh, my God!
- 05:31He had about three unruly deaf brothers, yeah?
- 05:34And he used to get picked up after school in a dirty old Land Rover
- 05:36full of flailing arms. No.
- 05:38You don't remember that?
- 05:39No. He used to write everything out in that calculator font
- 05:42cos he thought it was really cool.
- 05:45No. We made him eat a fucking bark sandwich, for fuck's sake.
- 05:49No. You don't remember that?
- 05:51No. Nothing? Nothing.
- 05:53Fuck.
- 05:57Right, I'm going to get Slugs over, he was in our class, he'll remember.
- 06:00Please don't get Slugs over. Yes, I am! He'll never leave.
- 06:03Me and Kurtan have known Slugs since school
- 06:05and I've never met anyone who outstays their welcome
- 06:07more than him.
- 06:08Like, you'll say, "Sorry, Slugs,
- 06:09"I can't stop and chat I've got to go and have my dinner."
- 06:12And he'll go, "What we having?"
- 06:14Robert Robinson, yeah?
- 06:15He had a fat woman's arse and tiny, short little legs like a troll.
- 06:18Yeah, you sure you're not talking about Slugs?
- 06:20Positive. He genuinely looked like a Moomin.
- 06:22Yeah, so does Slugs.
- 06:23I know, but it ain't Slugs.
- 06:25His school jumper, yeah,
- 06:26was the most faded out of everyone's.
- 06:28He used to chew his sleeves into threads.
- 06:31No. He brought in a bit of meteorite once, yeah, for show and tell,
- 06:35and Darren Lacy called him Apollo 13.
- 06:37No. Oh, my God.
- 06:39He was obsessed with salamanders, yeah?
- 06:42And we saw him at the school fete
- 06:43and he was carrying around a little bank bag full of coppers
- 06:46and his face was painted like a salamander
- 06:48and he was hissing at dogs.
- 06:52How do you not remember Robert fucking Robinson?
- 06:55Oh, my God, there's this website
- 06:56that allows you to watch a loaf of bread slowly going stale.
- 07:00Fucking hell, man!
- 07:03Stop it.
- 07:05What's it called? Loaf of bread cam.
- 07:09Seriously?
- 07:16He's not on Facebook.
- 07:18How can he not be on Facebook?
- 07:20Everyone's on Facebook.
- 07:21That doesn't make any sense.
- 07:23Maybe he changed his name cos he got married.
- 07:26What? Maybe he's not on Facebook because he doesn't exist.
- 07:30What about that tea towel?
- 07:35Where is it?
- 07:38HE GASPS
- 07:41This is it. Got it.
- 07:42I've got it. This is it.
- 07:45There.
- 07:47That's him. Let me see. He's here.
- 07:48Rob Robinson. I got it.
- 07:51You see? Right there.
- 07:53Rob Robinson.
- 07:55And that was him. And I was...
- 07:57I knew it, didn't I?
- 07:59And that looks like him, as well.
- 08:00That looks exactly like him.
- 08:09There's a massive pond in the back of there
- 08:11and two summers ago, it got really bad algae.
- 08:1432 grand's worth of Koi carp just dead in a day.
- 08:17And the algae was thick, like a pint of cheese.
- 08:21And down there is karate club.
- 08:23On my first day of karate club, karate master goes to me, "Kerry,
- 08:26"I don't know why you're here because I can't teach you anything."
- 08:28"If anything, you should be teaching me."
- 08:30And just gave me his black belt.
- 08:35All right, Mand?
- 08:36No, I'm not all right. You know that little old blind man?
- 08:39Yeah. Yeah, when I was punching him in his face,
- 08:41the lens from his glasses broke and cut my knuckle.
- 08:44Oh, right.
- 08:46Do you want a tattoo, by the way?
- 08:48Why's that? Oh, I'm a qualified tattoo artist now,
- 08:50I've got my certificate this morning.
- 08:52Nice one.
- 08:54Do you want one, then? Well, yeah, I've always wanted one
- 08:57but I've just got no money.
- 08:58I've been saving up. No, no, I'd do it for free.
- 09:01Are you serious?
- 09:02Yeah, helps me build up my portfolio and that. Oh!
- 09:04Why don't you come round tomorrow afternoon, then?
- 09:07That'd be amazing.
- 09:08All right. Aw, nice one, Mand, cheers.
- 09:10I'll see you later.
- 09:12Tyson, fuck off!
- 09:14So, there's a house over there
- 09:16that we used to cherry knock at all the time.
- 09:19But since Graham's wife died, we don't do it any more
- 09:21cos we don't take the piss.
- 09:27I'm going to do whatever it takes to find out what happened
- 09:30to Robert Robinson.
- 09:32My theory is...is that he died but they just kept it from us
- 09:36cos we was just little, innocent children.
- 09:39This is where Robert Robinson lived.
- 09:45I can see him, I can just see him now,
- 09:47just playing in the garden.
- 09:51Summer evening, having so much fun and laughter.
- 09:56Cos he loved life.
- 09:59And then his mum comes out, "Robert, dinner's ready."
- 10:02And he's like, "Mum, I don't want to eat,
- 10:05"I'm having too much fun playing."
- 10:07She goes, "You have to eat something, Robert."
- 10:09And he goes, "No, seriously, I'm fine."
- 10:11She goes, "Right, that's it."
- 10:14So she grabs him by the neck, like this, pulls him in,
- 10:18and he's crying,
- 10:20and he's putting his heels in but she's kicking him.
- 10:24Thumping him on the back.
- 10:26And so he gets sent up to his bedroom without any tea.
- 10:30Kurtan? Cos he did have abusive parents.
- 10:32What? There's a pair of old Spider-Man pants here
- 10:34with some skidders in them.
- 10:37Yeah. Those will be his.
- 10:42It's just like one day he was here, and then the next, he was gone.
- 10:48I can se... I can feel, I can feel, Kerr, I can feel him here.
- 10:52I'm getting this weird feeling, I swear to God.
- 11:02You all right, Kurts?
- 11:04Can you just give me a minute?
- 11:07He's loving this.
- 11:09He gets very much too obsessive with things -
- 11:12like, last week he was obsessed with finding out what happened
- 11:15to the cast of The Queen's Nose.
- 11:17It's, like, an old kids' programme that was on TV.
- 11:22And a lot of them are still acting, actually.
- 11:25And then he got obsessed with the...the Fuse bar.
- 11:29He had to write a letter to Cadbury's
- 11:31asking what happened to the Fuse bar.
- 11:33And they wrote back saying, "The sales weren't great
- 11:36"but thank you so much for taking the time to write in."
- 11:49Thanks again so much for this, Mand, honestly, I can't believe it.
- 11:53So, do you know what you want, then?
- 11:54SHE SIGHS I just can't decide at the moment.
- 11:57Why don't you have a look through one of these books, then?
- 12:00Choose something from there. Cheers, Mand.
- 12:05So, what's that one?
- 12:07That's a pig.
- 12:08All right.
- 12:10Sorry, who's that?
- 12:11That's Friends.
- 12:13And that one? Harry Styles.
- 12:15Tasmanian.
- 12:17That's Justin Bieber.
- 12:19Fred Flintstone. Spock.
- 12:21Stig of the Dump.
- 12:23All right. Who did these?
- 12:25Me. Oh, right.
- 12:29They're really good.
- 12:31I know.
- 12:35Who's that one?
- 12:37That's Grant from EastEnders
- 12:38but also it could be that bloke off MasterChef.
- 12:42Oh, right. If you put glasses on it.
- 12:46Do you know what? I think I'm going to have to just
- 12:50go home and just have a think about it.
- 12:52Why?
- 12:53Cos...well, they're just so good, I can't choose which one.
- 12:59So, you're wasting my time?
- 13:01Cos I've booked the whole afternoon off for this.
- 13:04And I'm giving you one for free.
- 13:06No, I... You're taking the piss, aren't you?
- 13:07I do really want one, it's just, I...
- 13:10I do, yeah, I do really want one, yeah. What?
- 13:12I just don't know which one to have yet, that's the only thing.
- 13:17Do you do, like, really small ones?
- 13:20Like I literally just want, like, a K.
- 13:22I don't do small ones, I only do massive ones.
- 13:25Right.
- 13:26You wanted one? Nah.
- 13:40Do you know what? I am going to go home and think about it, Mand.
- 13:44Mand...
- 13:45Mandy?
- 13:47Mandy?
- 13:50Brilliant, she's dead.
- 13:52MANDY SNORES
- 13:54No, she's sleeping.
- 13:56Oh, what the fuck... What, with her eyes open?
- 13:59Yeah, my nan does it, it's like a weird condition or something.
- 14:03Look, watch this. Mandy?
- 14:06Your tattoos are shit.
- 14:09Oi.
- 14:12That's the whole day away.
- 14:14She's sleep talking.
- 14:17Oh.
- 14:18(Fuck this, I'm getting out of here.)
- 14:27(Go, let's get out.)
- 14:41Oh, my God.
- 14:43She's going to be so livid that we just, like, legged it.
- 14:46Well, yeah, but... Oh...
- 14:48You'd rather get a punch in the face, yeah,
- 14:49than a giant tattoo for the rest of your life, so, just... Oh, my God.
- 14:54Oh, for fuck's sake.
- 14:54DISTANT SHOUTING
- 14:57Oh, well, don't stop, let's keep walking.
- 14:59All right. Pretend we haven't seen him.
- 15:02Kerr, wait!
- 15:04What is it?
- 15:07God!
- 15:09Look at him, he's waddling like he's shat himself.
- 15:11What is it, mate?
- 15:19Well, what is it?
- 15:23Kerr, come on, let's just go.
- 15:27What? What?
- 15:29Rob Robinson? Well, what about him?
- 15:32What? What is it?
- 15:35No, what about him? What is it? Rob Robinson?
- 15:38What is it?
- 15:40He's alive? How do you know?
- 15:45Yeah?
- 15:46Oh, yeah!
- 15:48Seriously?
- 15:50Seriously?
- 15:52Kerr, this is...this is... This is serious now.
- 15:55That is amazing.
- 15:57Thanks for that, mate.
- 15:59Thank the Lord for Slugs.
- 16:02That's brilliant, that.
- 16:04Come on. I can't believe it, that is...
- 16:07That's great news. The plot thickens, Kerr.
- 16:16Mum, what's for tea?
- 16:20What?
- 16:27Can I have a word, Kerr?
- 16:30(She's going to fucking kill us.)
- 16:31(Not me, I'm going home.)
- 16:33(You're coming in with me.)
- 16:36(She'll fucking....)
- 16:38(Don't you fucking dare.)
- 16:49All right, Mand?
- 16:51Look, I'm sorry about earlier.
- 16:53I don't want you to think I sleep on the job or nothing.
- 16:55I'm a professional. No, honestly, you're fine,
- 16:58I reckon what we should do
- 16:59is just forget about the whole thing, to be honest.
- 17:02No, I brought all my tattooing stuff round now.
- 17:08Yeah, but you're really tired, though, aren't you?
- 17:11No.
- 17:13Erm...
- 17:15But I don't really know...what I want to have done yet,
- 17:20that's the thing.
- 17:21That's all right, I'll make it up as I go along.
- 17:24Sit down.
- 17:26Yeah, I could have said "no" to Mandy, but...
- 17:29I want to support a local business, don't I?
- 17:31Because that's who I am.
- 17:35And when a tattoo removal company starts up round here,
- 17:38I'll be supporting that, as well.
- 17:41Take your top off. Yeah.
- 17:43TATTOO GUN BUZZES
- 17:51So, we're just outside the village.
- 17:53It's been years since I've come up here.
- 17:55Like, it's a long walk from my house,
- 17:57but I think it's all going to be worth it
- 17:59because I'm seeing Robert Robinson.
- 18:03Slugs found out that he works in this garage
- 18:05just outside the village.
- 18:06I don't know what's going to happen. Like, anything could happen.
- 18:09He might not want to see me.
- 18:10He might just punch me in the face, and if he does,
- 18:12I'm just going to stand there and take it
- 18:14cos that is the least he deserves.
- 18:17He might not even be the same lad I once knew, like...
- 18:21He might not even be into salamanders any more.
- 18:25But one thing I do know is that I lost him once
- 18:27and I ain't ever going to lose him again.
- 18:33I think that's him.
- 18:34I am pretty sure, yeah, that is Robert fucking Robinson.
- 18:40Right there.
- 18:58Robert? Yeah?
- 19:03You are...you are exactly how I remembered, it's so weird.
- 19:07All right.
- 19:08It's me, Kurtan.
- 19:10OK.
- 19:15Like, no-one else remembers who you were, right?
- 19:17But I never forgot who you were, Robert.
- 19:21Sorry...sorry, who are you?
- 19:23Kurtan.
- 19:25You were in my class, yeah, in Year 6 for, like, two terms,
- 19:27I bullied you relentlessly.
- 19:29Right. You don't remember...?
- 19:33What happened to you?
- 19:35Well, I moved schools.
- 19:37Right. And now I work here.
- 19:42Why aren't you on Facebook?
- 19:44I am on Facebook.
- 19:47I changed my name to Salamander.
- 19:51Of course.
- 19:53I should... That is so you, as well.
- 19:58What time do you finish here?
- 20:00Ten minutes. Why?
- 20:06I don't know.
- 20:12What sort of broom is that?
- 20:14I don't know.
- 20:27All right, well, look after yourself, yeah?
- 20:44Absolute waste of time.
- 20:47So fucking boring. Jesus.
- 20:49Nothing about him.
- 20:53How are we going to get home from here, as well?
- 20:57I've got to walk through this fucking shit.
- 21:00Some things are just best left in the past, where they belong.
- 21:03You've just got to live in the moment
- 21:05and appreciate what's around you.
- 21:06Because while you're pining for Noel Edmond's House Party,
- 21:09you're missing out on Alan Carr's Chatty Man.
- 21:11It's just shits and roundabouts.
- 21:27Let's see it, then.
- 21:28No. Come on, please.
- 21:30No, I ain't showing you. Please, Kerr, come on.
- 21:32Oh. Yeah, fine, but don't touch it.
- 21:34I won't touch it. Cos it's still really painful.
- 21:38SHE WINCES
- 21:42That looks like a dog sniffing a bumhole.
- 21:44Piss off! It's a wolf howling at a moon, thanks.
- 21:48Oh... Dick. ..this'll cheer you up, yeah?
- 21:50I spoke to Mr Perkins' grieving wife earlier...
- 21:53Oh, yeah. And he's definitely still dead.
- 21:55SHE GASPS
- 21:55I know.
- 21:58SHE BLOWS WHISTLE
- 22:01He's dead!
- 22:04He's dead!
- 22:06The bastard's dead.
