CUT TO:
HAPPY VALLEY. EPISODE TWO. BY SALLY WAINWRIGHT 9.
8 EXT. TURNPIKE STREET, ELLAND. DAY 5. 13.50 8
Just above Turnpike Street is a little grassed area with a
small children’s playground. There’s an ice cream van parked
right next to it, with an unusual number of customers, most
of them low-life and hoodies. There’s a few toddlers with
mums too, but they’re outnumbered.
Inside the van we glimpse close-up as one of two lads serving
ice-cream drops a wrap of dope into the bottom of a cone,
pulls a swirl of ice cream on top, and hands it over the
counter to a lad offering a tenner. The other lad inside the
van takes the tenner and pockets it (and obviously gives no
change). The next hoodie appears at the window, and asks the
lad for “two o’ them what he had”, and proffers a couple of
tenners.
Just then a patrol car and a traffic car appear from one end
of the street, and a second patrol car from the other. At
speed. They’ve got the blue lights flashing, but no sirens.
People start shouting “Feds!” “Pigs!” ”Bastard police!” etc,
whilst the two boys in the van are going, “Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!”
The boy who was collecting the cash jumps into the driver’s
seat and starts trying to turn the engine over, but it’s no
use:
one patrol car’s pulled up right in front, one rightbehind, whilst the traffic car’s boxed him in at the side.
Which obliges the lad to say “Sh*t!” again.
The clientele are all dispersing - fast. CATHERINE, KIRSTEN,
SHAFIQ, TWIGGY (a PC) and the other PC, plus the two TRAFFIC
COPS, all dive out of their vehicles. The two dope-sellers
come flying out of the ice-cream van window, one after the
other, and race off. Because some of the clients are running
off too, there’s some confusion about who’s who. Six of the
seven police officers grab who they can, whilst one of them
secures the ice cream van. One of the dope-sellers is grabbed
and floored and cuffed (by KIRSTEN and TWIGGY), but
CATHERINE’s got her eye on the other one, who’s legging it.
CATHERINE:
(at SHAFIQ)
THAT ONE!
SHAFIQ diverts from the one he’s after to join CATHERINE
racing after this one. CATHERINE gets close enough, then
rugby tackles him to the ground, but it’s messy, and he
manages to free one of his legs and boots her in the eye.
