00:00It's okay, it's alright, there's a magic here tonight, so all you gotta do is make a wish.
00:29Anything you want, I can make your dreams come true, make a wish.
00:35And there she is again, ladies and gentlemen, a unanimous decision, judges and audience alike.
00:40Melody Parker, our Catch-Up Rising Star All-Comers All-Star Champion!
00:45Melody, Melody, Melody, what can I say?
00:49Um, excuse me?
00:50Max, Max Mitford, GMM Global Music Management, you've heard of us I'm sure, we're global.
00:56I, uh, yes, I think.
00:59Two words, star and quality, that's it, and presents.
01:04You have presents, buckets of it Mel, coming out your ears.
01:07Oh, well, thank you.
01:09From now on your life's gonna be champagne and roses, that's for the moment all I'm gonna say.
01:14Fame, luxury, champagne and roses.
01:25Done it!
01:33I have really done it.
01:36I knew it.
01:37I've just given up my day job.
01:39You've done what?
01:41Yes, I told you.
01:42From now on I'm a professional full-time inventor.
01:45Gregory, professional usually means some sort of job which involves making money.
01:52Open up.
01:54Come on, open the door.
01:58Look, you cannot avoid paying me my rent by going and hiding behind the curtain every week.
02:04I know you're in there, I saw you come up.
02:06Okay, this is your last warning.
02:08I'll be back.
02:09No payment and you lot are out.
02:15You can't suddenly give up your job, that's not gonna help.
02:20We owe £695 in rent.
02:23It is, it is gonna help.
02:26Why do you think I couldn't come and see you perform last night?
02:28I've been working.
02:30Come here, come on.
02:33Come on.
02:35The Home Treasure Nappy Valley Auto Changer.
02:38Super sanitised biological baby changer.
02:42From pooey to powder in under 30 seconds.
02:45Come on Treasure, let's show her.
02:46What are you doing?
02:47You can't put her in that thing.
02:49That's it, she's done all the test runs, haven't you sweetie?
02:52Here we go.
03:06Ta-da.
03:07That is incredible, Gregory, you've done it.
03:11This is a million dollar invention.
03:20The waste water is back up.
03:27Look at that phone, Gregory.
03:29That just about sums up our current situation.
03:45Melody Parker.
03:46Melody.
03:47Melody, yeah, it's me, Matt Smithford.
03:50I'm here at my offices at GMM right now.
03:53Miss Peabody, pass me the Melody Parker file, will you?
03:59I have a file?
04:00Oh yeah, yeah.
04:02Right, now, we at GMM think that you have a huge future.
04:07That's all I'm gonna say at the moment.
04:09Right, I see you're collecting gold discs, dating movie stars.
04:13You name it, the perfect young, free and single pop star.
04:17Single? Dating?
04:19Well, that's not a problem, is it?
04:21I mean, you don't have a boyfriend or anything, do you?
04:23A boyfriend? No, no.
04:26Great, great, because at GMM all we ask for is total commitment.
04:30No distractions, no ties, the complete cool pop singer image.
04:34And in return, we make you into a star.
04:38Yeah, how about I come straight over?
04:41Um, that might be a bit...
04:43Say one o'clock? Fabulous, fabulous.
04:47That's all I'm gonna say.
04:49Lovely.
04:53Ta-da! It's us!
04:55Sam, Sophie, Pansy, Pirate!
04:57Your newly adopted stepsisters.
04:59But you're not due until Tuesday.
05:01It is Tuesday, Doofy.
05:03And we're here!
05:04For the whole of summer.
05:05Why didn't you remind me?
05:06Why didn't you remind me?
05:08Nice welcome.
05:09Makes me wish I'd gone with Arthur and Audrey in harmony on the ancient Inca tour of South America.
05:13No, no, no, it's fantastic to see.
05:15Sorry, sorry, I'm just a bit preoccupied.
05:18More children! Fantastic.
05:21Hey, I know.
05:22Why don't you all dump the bags and then go off and explore the area?
05:25Melody, they just got here.
05:27Come on, you lot. Let's go and find some lunch.
05:30Yeah, I'm starving!
05:33Oh, where's Teddy?
05:40Hi, Frank.
05:41Frank Hughes?
05:42Your neighbour.
05:43Oh, yes, hi.
05:44Look, a bit of an emergency.
05:46Partner's wife's got a serious medical problem and...
05:49Don't ask.
05:50And the car's on the blink, so I'm, you know, helping out.
05:53The thing is, could you take Jack for me?
05:55All right.
05:56A couple of hours, tops.
05:57What, now?
05:58Could you take Jack for me?
05:59All right.
06:00A couple of hours, tops.
06:01What, now?
06:02You'd be saving me absolute life.
06:04Of course we could.
06:06It's an emergency, no problem.
06:08Oh, nice one.
06:10There's no trouble. You be nice.
06:12Thanks so much. You've saved my life.
06:15I've really got to go.
06:19Nice gaff.
06:23Right, girls.
06:24Sam, Sophie, Pansy, this is Jack. He's from next door.
06:27Nice parrot. You want to sell it?
06:29No, I don't.
06:31We were just going to have a quick lunch.
06:43Cornflakes.
06:44Healthy, nutritional lunchtime treat for all the family.
06:48Oh, well, a banquet.
06:50Expecting royalty or something.
06:53Smells a bit dadless, this place.
06:55Where's that baby wee?
06:57My dad knows a geezer could sort your roof out for you.
06:59Are you always this rude?
07:01Wow, look at all the colours.
07:03These taste incredible. Try the blue ones.
07:06Blimey, look at that.
07:10Hey.
07:11And that is how you get the biggest bowl.
07:14Dear, oh, dear.
07:15Keep up, girls.
07:16Hold his trick in the book, that one.
07:19I've got an idea.
07:21A funfair.
07:22There's a funfair just set up on the old recreation grounds.
07:24Oh, yeah, I love fairs.
07:26Why don't I give you all, say, five pounds each to go and have a good time?
07:31Five quid?
07:32Come on, the sooner you leave, the sooner you'll get there.
07:35Melody, can I have a word?
07:43It's nice.
07:44It's back.
07:46More wishes, but why?
07:49Sam, are you coming?
07:51Help for people who lose their way.
07:54Bring those apart together someday.
07:57Come on, Sam, I'm going down there with Pansy.
07:59You have to catch us up.
08:01Wait, Sophie, Pansy, wait.
08:03Oh, you dipstick.
08:06Ow.
08:07Here, kids, cut through.
08:11Well, that's the result, isn't it?
08:13I suppose so.
08:15Here.
08:16Where do you think they're taking everything?
08:18It can't be our flat.
08:20Well, that only leaves mine.
08:26Twenty quid?
08:28One minute you're telling me how much money we owe,
08:30the next thing you're handing out free passes to the fair.
08:33Right, I'm going out to buy a new Contraflow vacuum extractor for the nappy change,
08:38and I shall not be back for some time.
08:40OK.
08:42Yes, can you take her?
08:51They are in my flat.
08:53How did they get in?
08:55I don't get it.
08:56Look, your dad's started collecting art.
08:58What can we do about it?
08:59Where can we go now?
09:00I've got to speak to Sophie and Pansy.
09:02Splash.
09:08Look, my favourite.
09:12Hello.
09:13Hello.
09:15Um, what's your name?
09:18Hello.
09:19Um, do you want a ticket?
09:21Oh.
09:22Oh, a ticket for the train.
09:24You are the ghost train man, aren't you?
09:26Yes, oh, yes.
09:28You're my first customers today.
09:31Well, today and yesterday, actually.
09:34Ah, there you are.
09:36Have a lovely ride, my dears.
09:38Lovely ride? I want to screw my socks off.
09:40Yeah, bring it on, baby, we can take it.
09:42Let's go.
09:48Ooh.
10:03I have to say, that was the worst ghost train I've ever been on.
10:06Yeah, I was more spooked going through Santa's Squatter down the mall last Christmas.
10:10I know, I know.
10:12But business is so bad I can barely afford a tub of grease from my torture rack.
10:16I've got the health and safety telling me I've got to spend fortunes making Army Chamber of Horrors safe.
10:22And now the boss is threatening to kick me out.
10:25Leave the fair after 34 years on the road.
10:29I tell you, the spook business is getting so bad, it's scary.
10:33Well, there must be something you can do. That was so rubbish.
10:36I mean, even we can make it more scary than that.
10:40Here you are, dears.
10:42Luminous paint, ghost sheets, assorted torture equipment, entrails, axes, skulls, severed heads and limbs.
10:52They're all in there. Never throw anything away, that's my motto.
10:56Now, I'll turn off for an hour.
10:58And if you can do anything with this lot to spook this place up a bit, I'll make it worth your while, alright?
11:03Yeah, yeah.
11:06Melody! Is it alright to leave the Mercedes in the street out there?
11:14Oh, I'm sure.
11:17Excuse all the covers, I've got an interior designer in.
11:22I'm getting the place remodelled, sort of post-modern, eclectic, Bijou penthouse look.
11:29Ah, electric Bijou, yeah, the gossip columns will love all that.
11:33He might pop back, actually, the designer. He's brilliant, but very eccentric.
11:38He sometimes even brings his baby with him.
11:41Oh, does he?
11:43So, Max.
11:45Yeah?
11:46You really think I've got what it takes to make it?
11:48Oh, Melody, you've got the voice, you've got the looks, the presence.
11:52And now, baby, you've got me.
11:55I want to be your manager, Melody.
11:57All I need is your individual attention, your total dedication, and we can't fail.
12:02I can't believe it!
12:04I see you as a top ten solo recording artist, dating the movie stars, touring the world.
12:09Every boy's pin-up girlfriend.
12:11And I want you to sign this contract right now.
12:17This is the big one, Mel. This is where your life changes forever.
12:22I've often thought about running away to the fair.
12:24You know, spend all day hanging off the back of dodging flicking coin.
12:27Now that's a great career, huh?
12:29Run away? What about your mum and dad?
12:31My dad wouldn't care. He hardly even notices I'm around or not, anyway.
12:35But your mum?
12:37She left us when I was six. She was just griefed, Dad says, anyway.
12:41I don't know where my mum is, either.
12:44Yeah?
12:45Yeah.
12:49I was sure they'd be here. This is always Paddy's favourite.
12:53There you are. I've got to talk to you quick. Come on.
13:02Always like my stars to drink the best vintage champagne, Melody.
13:06That's all I'm going to say at the moment.
13:08Treasure's still asleep, so, er...
13:10Gregory, this is Max Mitford from the Professional Global Artist Management.
13:16Max, this is Gregory. I told you about him.
13:19Oh, yeah. The interior designer.
13:21Max saw me win the competition last night.
13:24He thinks I can make it in the music business.
13:26He wants to be my manager.
13:28He wants to be my manager.
13:30Does he? Wow.
13:33Champagne. Lovely.
13:38And, er, this is the contract, is it?
13:41Yes. Isn't it fantastic?
13:43Let's have a look, then. Well, hold on, hold on. What's he got to do with you?
13:46Oh, let's let him have a look, can't we?
13:49He is rather good at all the legal contract authority stuff.
13:53Is he?
13:55Oh, it is. It really is. Queen's nose.
13:58It's back. Ten more wishes.
14:00Oh, great. Let's go and get Kate.
14:02Yeah, but no. Look, it's obviously appeared again for a reason.
14:06There was this message about helping people and bringing people together.
14:09I think it's come back because it wants us to help someone.
14:12Melody and Gregory, did you see the way they were together?
14:15Yeah, and having to eat cornflakes for lunch. Can you believe that?
14:18Maybe they're the ones.
14:20Maybe they're the ones.
14:24Hey! Hey!
14:27Knock it off now.
14:31Poor Jack. But Bert's so sweet. He's already about to lose his job and become closed down.
14:36He doesn't need all this.
14:38Well, we can help him if you want to. The message said we should help people.
14:42Yeah? Yeah.
14:43OK. We wish that this guest train was really, really successful for Bert.
14:51Come on, Grandad. How about you give us a ride on this thing?
14:57Well, that's not going to be good for business.
14:59No, no. Come on.
15:20Ah!
15:23Ah!
15:49Come on, boys.
15:52Ah!
16:09Someone call 9-1-1!
16:11Ah!
16:21We did it!
16:32That's interesting.
16:34Seems to be a variation on the old highwayman thing.
16:37Your money and your life.
16:39Yes, yes, but I'm going to be a pop star, Gregory.
16:43Listen, pal, I really don't think that concerns you.
16:46Oh, it does concern me. I'm very concerned.
16:50Melody, he's going to take more than half of any money you're going to earn until you get your pension.
16:55You can't sign this!
16:57Gregory, you don't understand. I was just showing you the contract.
17:02I've already signed it.
17:09Look at all this slot. I don't know what you did in there, but it certainly worked.
17:13Well, we just wanted to help. We have to go now because it's key time.
17:16No, wait. Wait there.
17:1815% of my earnings for this afternoon.
17:21We can't take this.
17:23Oh, absolutely. Insist, my dears.
17:25Oh, this is because of you. I will not take no for an answer.
17:28I'll have it. Thank you, Bert.
17:30Martin, that bag isn't strong enough. It's starting to break.
17:32Hold on. Hold on. I'll get something.
17:35There you are. That should do it.
17:40Stay beautiful.
17:44I can't believe you did that.
17:46Oh, lighten up, Gregory.
17:48Max says I'm going to be rich and famous.
17:52All of our troubles are over.
17:54Oh, no, they're not.
17:56I was really scared.
17:59I was really scared.
18:09We have a baby. Dependents.
18:12You have had numerous warnings, written and verbal.
18:15I'm well within my rights to begin eviction proceedings.
18:21Gregory, what's happening?
18:23Sam, this is the landlord. He wants to throw us out onto the street.
18:27I'll give you full and fair warning, Mr Parker-Woods.
18:30You owe me £695, I've told you.
18:34No cash by the end of today or you're out.
18:37Cash? But we can solve all this.
18:39Sit down, would you, please? Thank you.
18:42I'm sure this could all be sorted out.
18:44Gregory, Melody, can I have a word in private?
18:58Where did you get all this?
19:00It's a long, scary story. Start counting.
19:03Okay, count quite fair. You do the 20 piece and we'll do the 10.
19:27No!
19:57Oh, no!
20:22Right, Mr...
20:24Hello?
20:26Okay, now, we've got £78.42 here in cash.
20:32We know it's not all the rent money,
20:34but we want to ask you if you'll please accept this as a sort of first-down payment.
20:39And we promise absolutely...
20:41Yes, anything. Fine, fine.
20:43Look, just pay me anything you want, whenever you can.
20:48I've got to get out of here. Just let me go.
20:57Yeah!
20:59And he gave you 15% of the takings.
21:02That's brilliant.
21:04Maybe you should get into the ghost train business.
21:06I'm in the music business, Gregory.
21:08Oh, yeah? I believe that when I see it.
21:10But what did you actually do to the ghost trains? I can't...
21:13Oh, never mind. There's a cloth over there in the cupboard.
21:27Sophie, Pansy, have you got a moment?
21:38Do something! Do something!
21:41They can't stay in there because we have to live here!
21:44You mean another wish?
21:46Yes, yes! Get rid of them!
21:48Sam!
21:49Can't you find the cloth?
21:50Oh, don't worry. I'll get it.
21:52Quick, quick! Do it!
21:54OK, I wish that all the ghosts go back to the ghost trains,
21:57stay there and never get out.
22:03There we are!
22:05It's horrible!
22:08A spider!
22:10Look! Oh, it must be nearly an inch long!
22:16Like I said, I think it's come back because it wants us to help people.
22:19Yeah, that thing about people apart coming together.
22:22Gregory and Melody don't seem very together.
22:24Yeah, but we helped Bert too, didn't we? That's my idea.
22:27What is?
22:28Well, we're here all summer. We've got the Queen's Nose.
22:30We can do anything, help anyone.
22:31Like an agency?
22:33Exactly! We advertise, we take on jobs.
22:35Like, Bert needed a hand and it's fun.
22:37And maybe we'll get a bit of cash to help pay the bills here.
22:40Yeah, a sort of helping hand thing.
22:42The helper hand gang, yeah!
22:45That's a really good way to use the coin.
22:47Yeah, if you get selfish with the Queen's Nose, things can tend to get a bit tricky.
22:51But this way, what could go wrong?
23:02I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's only six months' rent we owe.
23:05We are going to pay the rest, honestly, we really are!
23:07Right, you, out!
23:15Tell me, this is flat one Delamere Buildings, isn't it?
23:18Um, no, this is flat two, actually.
23:30What are they doing?
23:32This is mad, there's no one in there!
23:38Dad?
23:48Dad?
