Made In Britain Page #6

Synopsis: Trevor is a 16 year old, sometimes-violent skinhead with no regard for authority, and would rather spend his time stealing cars than sitting in the detention centre to which he is sent. His social worker, Harry Parker, tries to do his best, but Trevor is only interested when there's something that he can get out of it. The authorities within the centre try to make Trevor conform to the norms of society, but he takes no notice, and would rather speak in a torrent of four-letter words and racial abuse.

I dumped him in the Transit

at the police station. I turned him in.

- Is that all?

- Yeah. Ah... no.

I pissed on my files in the centre.

Errol sh*t on his.

I'm turning myself in to you, as you're

my mate. You can collect the reward!

Where did you leave Errol

and the Transit?

What police station?

- One near Bradley Street School.

- Crapping on your own doorstep!

- We'll let them deal with it.

- They'll stand on me, Harry.

They don't like me there.

I've been there before.

They'll roll me in a mattress

and boot me.

What's that to a brick shithouse like you?

I smashed a police car with the Transit.

Send me to another nick.

Your sh*t. You roll in it!

You're an arsehole, Trevor.

You're not worth a piss!

Right.

Like my file!

Take your finger off that bleeding buzzer!

- What do you want?

- Can you flush the toilet? I done a crap!

Now, I told you to keep

your hand off that buzzer!

I'm a juvenile offender.

You can't keep me in a cell.

I know you.

Do ya?

I've been charged.

You can't keep me in the cell.

- You got to send me back to the centre.

- Shut your mouth, will you? Just shut it.

You got to look after me!

Gimme something to eat.

You see this?

Sit down and shut your f***in' rabbit.

- PC Anson.

- Shut it!

You're straight into court Monday.

And you ain't going back

to no assessment centre.

You're going straight

to a detention centre. Or borstal.

And when you come out, we're gonna be

waiting outside the gate for you...

...and we're gonna put you in a car

and bring you straight back down here.

And we're gonna take your fingerprints.

We can't do that now, juvenile offender...

...but once you've been to a DC or borstal,

we can screw you - and we will.

We got you now.

Once we have your prints, we'll do you for

every unsolved taking and driving away...

...in this district, stretching back

over months - and that's a lot of cars!

And you'll go down and you'll stay down

for years. We'll see to that.

Sounds great!

You think you're hard, don't you?

A lot of verbals.

There's two things you're going to learn!

At home, at school...

...at work, in the street...

...you will respect authority and you will

obey the rules, just like everybody else!

That's discipline!

Most kids know that

by the time they reach your age.

Shut it!

And keep it shut!
