Scrappers

The documentary about straight-talking scrap yard owner Terry Walker and glamorous wife Lyndsay returns. Having had a difficult year due to financial difficulties and a serious accident, they hope her 50th birthday will be a new beginning. Now it is their last chance to get the yard running right so they can hand it on to the kids. Terry is trying to drum health and safety into the lads and has decided to lose a day's takings and put them in a training session on cutting tools

Following the highs and lows of life at Bolton's Metro Salvage scrapyard continues as stressed owner Terry Walker faces a battle at home following a yard-based accident in which his son Jon dropped a car from a forklift. A furious Terry sacked Jon on the spot, upsetting his wife Lyndsay, who is not best pleased with the way her husband humiliated their son, and refuses to talk to him. However, a clash with his formidable other half is only one of Terry's problems. He's currently working on dragging his enterprise into the 21st century, a task that is easier said than done when his sales office staff are making critical errors.

Terry is so fed up he hasn't been to work for a week, so he and Lyndsay decide to try a role swap. However, before long safety issues are testing her patience, and she finds her `softly, softly' approach isn't working. He struggles with making bank payments, and Lyndsay realises the problems are bigger than just Terry's temper, so she persuades him they need a management consultant to help them make fundamental changes

It's date night, and the Walkers plan a shopping trip to Italy to look at a car shredder, an expensive machine that could turn their fortunes around. Terry tells sales manager Lee the target while he's away is four grand a day, but things unravel on the first morning. Half the lads don't turn up, there are no customers and everyone mucks about. Nobody listens to Lee, and his own little brother Dean is one of the worst. Lee only does a grand and dreads telling Terry. At the shredder factory, it's love at first sight for Terry as he wants to sell his house to buy the half-a-million-pound shredder. Lyndsay's not convinced. When Terry calls the yard, the news about low takings knocks his good mood. Next day, Lee doesn't turn up for work. A tearful Gemma discovers he's gone to hospital with chest pains. Lee's had a hernia, exacerbated by stress

Terry's back from Italy, inspired and dreaming of buying a £500,000 car shredding machine. At the hairdressers, Lyndsay reveals to daughter Jemma that she also wants to get the shredder. But there's no point unless the yard runs properly. Terry wants it like a production line, so Lyndsay's agreed to spend £20,000 installing concrete bays for specific parts.
