00:00I can make my world come true, all my dreams will see me through, doesn't matter what may come my way, believe me now, I will win someday.
00:20Today we are profiling the life of Obadiah Johnson. He was a highly successful secret agent, well known for his skills as a deadly poisoner. He worked with an accomplice known only as Cyanide Sue. Their favourite method was to slip poison into their victim's soup.
00:39Why does it keep on crashing?
00:40It was in my room, on my bed!
00:43No, give it back!
00:44Chantelle, give it!
00:45Can I please have some peace and quiet?
00:50I'm trying to get this recipe right for Jane, and I can't even hear myself think!
00:54Too late, she's just arrived. And, er, out! Come on, out!
01:00I don't know why you're making such a fuss over her anyway.
01:02Her family's from the same island as my family, so I'm preparing this local speciality for her.
01:07Oh.
01:08Knock-em-dead soup.
01:09Knock-em-dead?
01:10It's not just soup, it's a way of life. When I get it right, this stuff's lethal.
01:20Hey everyone, I'd like you to meet Jane, she's a student care worker, she's going to be with us for a few days.
01:27Hello!
01:28Hey, Norwich City, you like football?
01:31Then again, if you're a Norwich City fan, maybe you don't.
01:35Oh, that's love. And this is his brother, Bouncer.
01:41Bouncer? You alright?
01:44OK, boss, Duke here. Knock-em-dead. That's right. I need to know now.
02:06I know it's a secret.
02:08Look, spill the beans before it's too late.
02:12Gotta go. Too many people around.
02:31Jane, you are to me what Norwich City would to me be if I went to sea every Saturday.
02:41Bouncer!
02:46Sorry, um...
02:50Oh dear.
02:52It's not what you think.
02:54Alright, it is. It's a poem for Jane. But it's useless. I can't get rid of this rubbish.
03:01A letter would be more romantic. I could write it for you.
03:07No, no. Just go away. I need to be alone.
03:11OK.
03:16Do you really think a letter might work?
03:18You've got to deliver this to Jane's house. And don't open it. It's from Bouncer.
03:25OK. Where does she live?
03:28You'll have to find out. Be cunning. You've got to be really, really clever, Marco. You can't let her suspect a thing.
03:36WHISTLING
03:46OK. That's far enough.
03:49Give us the letter.
03:52Such a loyal little postman. But Bouncer isn't going to thank you when he's to visit you in hospital.
03:58Think about it. You know it makes sense.
04:06MUSIC
04:12This stuff will keep you all quiet when it's finished.
04:16Try this.
04:20It's alright.
04:24It's still not right. There's something missing.
04:28Knock them dead.
04:30Hi, Duke. Anything luck with our little problem?
04:34I called the boss, but I was interrupted. I still don't know what the secret ingredient is.
04:40The stuff is to die for.
04:43Yeah, but it's still not quite right.
04:46Hayley, you try it.
04:49MUSIC
05:04LAUGHTER
05:09Jane, find the right words to say how I feel for you.
05:13It's like looking for the purple ones in a pick-and-mix line.
05:17What's up?
05:19You were like the light in the fridge, always on, even in the cold and dark.
05:24What?
05:25Wouldn't it be cool if we wrote back?
05:28Why?
05:30We don't like Bouncer.
05:33What if we write to him and he thinks it's Jane?
05:36And Jane asks for presents?
05:40Get with the programme, Rio. We write, he gives, we get. I like it.
05:46Pen, paper, now!
05:56What's the matter?
05:58I don't know. Bad stomach. Must have been something I ate.
06:03Not condemned soup. This stuff's lethal, lethal, lethal.
06:12Bouncer! She's written back!
06:26Well, what did she say?
06:29Eleven man in yellow shorts.
06:31What?
06:34Hi, Jane.
06:36Hi, love.
06:38You look like a fruit salad.
06:40To impress Jane.
06:42Listen, I'm impressing her by doing a scorpion kick.
06:45A scorpion kick?
06:47Ready, love?
06:51Ready?
06:52Bouncer, seriously?
06:54Love, check it out!
06:56Ah, ah, ah!
06:58Ah, ah!
07:03Bouncer! Are you OK?
07:10Yeah, I'm fine.
07:13Just give me two minutes, OK?
07:24Jane! Jane!
07:28I've got it!
07:33Brilliant! Well, ladies, fingers, that's what we need.
07:39Come on.
07:52Best wishes, Bouncer.
07:59I'm not taking it. I'm on strike.
08:02Postman only strike at Christmas time.
08:04It's more romantic if you deliver it to her house.
08:07There's something not right about this.
08:09She told me she's got a boyfriend.
08:11The point is, she's not married, is she?
08:13So I'm still in with a chance.
08:15Look at this letter. The handwriting's terrible.
08:17Bad handwriting's a sign of intelligence.
08:20It's totally unprofessional.
08:22Well, romance is dangerous.
08:28Ah!
08:34Let's not do anything rash now, Posty.
08:37Just hand it over nice and slow.
08:43They're trying to poison us with that soup.
08:48They've found special ingredients.
08:51It's fingers.
08:55They're trying to poison us.
09:06I've got a letter, a love letter.
09:09Jane, I've got a letter, a love letter.
09:12Jane, Jane, I've got a letter.
09:16If she loves me, I love her.
09:21Dear...
09:26Rabbit.
09:29Chocolate.
09:34Dearest Jane, just a note to say
09:37that Mr Sniffles the rabbit is on his way
09:40with lots of chocs in a beautiful box
09:43for you to eat today.
09:51Marco! Marco!
10:01Taylor!
10:04Poisoner, you tried to poison Crash
10:07with this soup.
10:09I didn't try to poison Crash.
10:12Do you know how much chocolate he ate yesterday?
10:16Well, you tried to put a sword to sleep
10:19and I heard you talking on the phone to the boss.
10:23Oh, the boss.
10:25Don't tell Sid, but that's my auntie from the Caribbean.
10:28Keep it quiet, though.
10:30I'm not supposed to make international calls from the office.
10:33But you put ladies' fingers in the soup.
10:38Ladies' fingers.
10:40Okra, the secret ingredient.
10:43This soup's not poisoned. It's ambrosia.
10:46Watch.
10:49Mmm.
11:04Sorry.
11:11Thank you, Poosty.
11:13I'll take the chocolates.
11:15And I'll take Mr Sniffles.
11:20Give it back!
11:22Give it here!
11:24Give it back!
11:30Where'd you get them from?
11:32Sniffles, I believe is his name.
11:34Oh, dear.
11:36OK, Bounce.
11:38Nobody's perfect. You, me, Layla.
11:41We've all made mistakes.
11:43Sometimes it's better to raise both hands and say,
11:45OK, guys, I goofed.
11:47Humiliation is a part of growing up.
11:50What are you talking about?
11:52Hold up for this.
11:54Chantal, Roxy and Rio wrote Jane's letters.
11:57They'd be making a fool out of you.
11:59You what?
12:01Jane never even got your letters.
12:04So I'm still not worth a chance, then?
12:06Bounce, er...
12:08You think you're mad.
12:10Anyway, I'm not writing any more.
12:13Rise above the situation, Bounce.
12:16Be a man.
12:20Oi, that's my rabbit.
12:23I got the ears to prove it.
12:26Here, take him.
12:28But remember, he's more of a rabbit than you'll ever be.
12:35And we'll have these.
12:40Mmm, knock-em-dead soup.
12:43Oh, nice.
12:45Octopus, is it?
12:47Snail? Mouse?
12:49No, no, I can't say.
12:51It's a secret family recipe.
12:57Erm, Jane.
12:59We bought these for you.
13:01We've eaten half of them, but there's plenty left.
13:03We've really enjoyed having you here.
13:05I suppose I'd better practice my scorpion kicks, then.
13:13I'm proud of you, bro.
13:15You see, you can do it.
13:17She's just a chick.
13:19Hi, I'm Frances.
13:21I'm the new student.
13:23Is this a good time to interrupt?
13:25Yeah, come here and have some soup.
13:27Lol.
13:29Lol, are you all right?
13:31Yeah.
13:33Lol.
13:35Bye.
13:37No flipping.
13:39There's plenty more action coming now.
13:43Oh, no.
13:55Argh!
13:59Marco.
14:01It's the middle of the night.
14:03Come quick, the aliens have landed.
14:05Come on!
14:13What's up?
14:15Marco's found aliens in the cupboard.
14:17Again? What happened?
14:19They got lost on their way to Venus?
14:21Who knows?
14:23Aha!
14:25They've gone.
14:27But they must be coming back.
14:29They left their communication device behind.
14:43Hi, I'm back.
14:45Did you miss me?
14:47Medusa's song was fantastic.
14:51I saw a lamb being born.
14:53Blood and everything.
14:55I've got something to tell you.
14:57What?
14:59Well...
15:01Good morning, girls.
15:03Come on, Hayley, get up.
15:05It's time to go to bed.
15:07Good night.
15:09Good night.
15:11Come on, Hayley, get a move on.
15:13Big day today, remember?
15:15Mark and Helen will be here in a few hours.
15:18You're going out with Mark and Helen?
15:22I'm going to breakfast.
15:24You coming?
15:28Hi, everyone.
15:30What's happening?
15:32Did you miss me?
15:34How was Medusa's song?
15:36It was fantastic.
15:38We had pancakes every day for breakfast.
15:42Good doggy.
15:46Next time we can go together.
15:52Hayley?
15:54She's nervous.
15:56Stop it, boys.
15:58Come on.
16:00Marco, come on, give.
16:02Good boy, come on.
16:04Marco, the people who were taking you out this morning
16:06Don't get washed.
16:08Hot doggy.
16:10Hot dog, don't get in your bucket.
16:12I'll be in the garden, mate.
16:14I need to chat.
16:20Hello.
16:22This is Marco.
16:24That's enough barking.
16:26Marco, thank you.
16:28He's very excited to meet you, as you can see.
16:32And very fond of animals.
16:35No, Martin's allergic.
16:45Thank you, Leila.
16:47It's okay.
16:49Don't worry.
16:51You can always go and visit.
16:53Go and visit? What?
16:55Hayley.
16:57Lucky girl.
16:59Just think, if it all works out with her new family
17:01She'll never have to eat my cooking again.
17:04Why?
17:06Well, she's leaving today.
17:23I'm sorry, Leila.
17:25I thought she told you.
17:27She said she would do as soon as you got back.
17:29Well, she didn't.
17:33Well done, Duke, my son.
17:35You made a real mess of that.
17:47Thanks for telling me.
17:50I really wanted to.
17:52But every time I tried, I just couldn't.
17:56You'll always be my best friend.
17:59Best friends don't have secrets.
18:02I know. I'm sorry.
18:04I'm really going to miss you.
18:07Mark and Helen are really nice.
18:09They said you can come and visit any time.
18:11And I can come back here.
18:13Hayley! Mark and Helen are here.
18:17Hey, Batman. Lost the rest of your bat mates?
18:20Go away.
18:22It speaks.
18:24You want to learn how to get down?
18:27There are other things I could be doing.
18:30You know, if you hang upside down too long
18:32The blood drains out of your face.
18:34And you can't breathe.
18:36And you can't breathe.
18:38And you can't breathe.
18:40And you can't breathe.
18:42And you can't breathe.
18:44And if you hang upside down too long
18:46The blood drains out of your feet into your brain
18:48And your eyes pop out.
18:50Yeah, it can be very messy. Blood all over the place.
18:53I was coming down anyway.
19:02You're right, Layla.
19:11Hayley told you she's leaving?
19:13She didn't have the guts.
19:15I had to find out for myself.
19:18We've known hundreds of kids to get fostered over the years.
19:21Haven't we, bro?
19:22Yeah, hundreds.
19:24You'll be next. You watch.
19:27Sometimes.
19:29I bet you're a fiver.
19:31When there's all those perfect Barbie doll kids out there.
19:36Get lost. Families have little cute kids like you.
19:39Circly Bruce like bouncing all at once.
19:43Hayley just got there first, that's all.
19:51Bad day, huh?
19:53No one's ever going to foster me, are they?
19:55Course they are.
19:57Little kids like you are the first to be snapped up.
19:59Yeah, if you're cute like Hayley.
20:01But you're cute.
20:05In your own way.
20:07I'm never going to get fostered.
20:09I'm just too weird.
20:12You know what you have to do?
20:14What?
20:15Just be a muggle for a bit.
20:17A muggle?
20:18Someone ordinary, boring.
20:20Then when you get fostered, you can do what you want.
20:22Hey, what's going on?
20:23Marco wants to be normal.
20:25Ha! Marco. Normal.
20:27Don't hold your breath.
20:28Oi.
20:30Don't worry. We'll show her.
20:32It can't be that difficult.
20:41Shh.
21:00Look, I need help.
21:02I've got six hours to make Marco normal.
21:04Many have tried and failed.
21:06A family are coming round this afternoon.
21:09We can just get rid of the nutty bits.
21:10They might want to take him out.
21:12But it's the nutty bits that make Marco...
21:14Marco?
21:15But Marco with nutty bits stays hanging from a tree all day
21:17pretending to be a bat.
21:19Marco without nutty bits goes out of a nice, normal family to have fun.
21:22What do you reckon, Crash? You in?
21:24Sure. Be a laugh.
21:26For who?
21:27Look, it might be a big joke to you, Tracy Beaker,
21:29but you're fostered. You're OK.
21:31Exactly my point.
21:32If I can get fostered, anyone can.
21:34This is Marco we're talking about here.
21:37What would you like for breakfast?
21:38Cornflakes and lemonade.
21:39And if there's none of that, I'd have bread and gravy.
21:42Good choice.
21:44From now on, it's toast and jam, OK?
21:46What's your favourite sport?
21:48Crown green bowling.
21:50Football from now on.
21:51David Beckham's your hero, OK?
21:53But Uri Geller's my hero.
21:55No. Repeat after me.
21:56David Beckham.
21:58David Beckham.
22:00Right, that's his hobbies and eating habits.
22:02Now his clothes.
22:04There is nothing wrong with my clothes.
22:08Hey, Lee. Time to go.
22:19Come on, Marco. She'll be leaving in a minute.
22:23When's she coming back?
22:24In a minute. She's waiting.
22:35You'll be next. You watch.
22:39I'm going to miss you, kidder.
22:41You ever want peanut cookies, you know where they are.
22:45You haven't seen Leila, have you, Duke?
22:47Um, I'm sure she won't be long.
22:50Yeah, maybe the toilet door's got stuck again.
22:53Thanks.
22:55But I don't think she wants to be my friend any more.
22:58Of course she does.
23:00She'll write to you, I'm sure.
23:03So, here it is.
23:05Wide world. Are you OK?
23:08That's my girl. Come on.
23:10It might seem a little bit strange for the first couple of days,
23:12but you can give me a ring any time.
23:14Beat me with a big stick, I'm on a roll.
23:17I've even found the perfect family for Marco Maloney.
23:19And if they don't want him as soon as they see him,
23:21I'll eat my box file.
23:35I love you.
24:06I forgot to give you this.
24:09Sorry.
24:11Me too.
24:13Come back and visit.
24:15Of course I will.
24:17I thought you might like it. For when we're pop stars.
24:24See you.
24:28Don't forget me!
24:36This way, Marco.
24:38Remember, nice and normal.
24:43Hello, my name is Marco Maloney.
24:45Have you done something different to your hair?
24:49Marco, meet the boxers.
24:55Yes, so there's nothing I like better than watching TV
24:58and hoping to see my hero, Derek Bebham.
25:01That is, of course, after I've eaten my toast and jam.
25:04Sorry to butt in,
25:06but life with the boxers might be a bit on the spooky side for you.
25:10We like to stay up all night looking for UFOs,
25:13eating crazy stuff.
25:15My wife collects false teeth from the rich and famous.
25:18This is from the first Dracula film.
25:23Maybe you'd like a family that was a bit more...
25:26What's the word we don't use? Lotus flower?
25:29Normal?
25:32Maybe you'd like a family that's a bit more...
25:35like that.
25:37I hate you! I hate you all! We're right on a hill!
25:40Are we supposed to know they just landed from Planet Zog?
25:45Well, what did I say? Dare to be different.
25:47You know, for once, you might be right.
25:49So, we tried it your way, now it's time for the beak treatment.
25:52Crash, you can come with me.
25:54Jackie, your recorder. Bouncer, go get Marco in his Sunday best.
26:02Yes, well, I do understand.
26:04Thank you, thank you.
26:07Bye, then.
26:12Bye.
26:14Whoa! Hold on the drive!
26:19Oh, no, not again, Marco!
26:21Please excuse my friend here. He often goes off like this.
26:24I mean, we try and tell him it's not real, but he just doesn't listen.
26:28Maybe there's more to this boy than meets the eye.
26:31What are you doing, kid?
26:33I'm communing with the snake spirit of Nefertiti.
26:36Maybe you could be our sort of guy after all.
26:39I'm sorry, but I have a meeting with the leprechauns,
26:41and they don't like it when I'm late.
26:43Don't let us stop you.
26:45But any time you want to join us flamenco dancing,
26:47you get your boss here to give us a ring.
26:49I will. Olé!
26:51I can make my world come true
26:54All my dreams you see me through
26:56And the sun won't get me down
26:58My dreams will turn things all around
27:00With a smile upon my face
27:02I can see a better place
27:04Doesn't matter what may come my way
27:07Believe me now, I'll win someday
