Skint - S01E03 - Episode 3.mp4
Plot Summary: The final episode follows 37-year-old Dean, his wife Claire and their seven children and step-children as the local pub – The Desert Rat – re-opens. Three months ago, The Rat was attracting so many problems with customers that it was shut down. Now Claire’s cousin Denise is taking it on and wants to make it a success, without the previous unwanted attention. For Dean and Claire this is a rare night off from the children to go to the opening night.
Just outside the pub is ‘The Wall’ where people congregate – often when they have nothing better to do. The Wall regulars are sure that the pub re-opening spells trouble with the draw of daytime drinking.
The film features some of The Wall regulars. Thirty-five-year-old Kieron used to shoplift to feed his drug habit until it he was banned from Scunthorpe town centre with an ASBO. Kieron is now trying to go straight, volunteering at a local church drop-in centre, but his road to recovery is bumpy. He is made homeless, sending him to the streets in an anxious and upset state.
Meanwhile Dean, his family and some friends are heading off on holiday. As six adults and 11 kids squeeze into a caravan in Skegness, tensions begin to brew between Dean and his step-son James. Of Dean and Claire’s brood of seven, James is the first to finish school and is thinking about going into the army. But when his GCSE results come in all he gets is one ‘D’, Dean and Claire are worried that James will end up as one of The Wall’s regulars.
Frustrated with the lack of work in the area, is Shane – who used to be Dean’s son-in-law and has been out of work for nine months. Shane had been working in Abu Dhabi with his dad, but came back to be with Dean’s step-daughter. With work scarce however, their relationship has hit the rocks. Shane’s dad is now moving to India to find a job, but Shane decides to stick it out in Scunthorpe to be near and provide for his daughter. Wanting to avoid a path that many friends in the area have taken, and with Dean and Claire’s support, Shane tries to channel his anger into a career and launch himself as a cage fighter.
