And what did he says?

He ran off, screaming.

Wow.

And a few days later, walking

down the same street, in fact,

He was there with his dad, but

his dad was clearly devoid of

Any sense of humor, so, dosh!

Oh no!

Yeah.

I looked way more like that

kid than his dad anyway.

Do you ever want kids?

No.

No?

No.

That urge has never

really kicked in.

You?

Cue the violins.

Oh.

I, I can't have children.

Don't stop for god's sake.

I had an abortion when I

was 18, and there were some

Complications but...

you know, I was...

totally fine with it, so...

don't you dare tell

me you're sorry.

Oh, no, I wouldn't dream of it.

There are way too many people

in the world anyway, right?

Last thing we need's

another you running around.

But you know what I

realized the other day?

Time travel will

never be invented.

No?

Why?

Well, if it was going to be

invented at any point, then

We'd have met someone from the

future already, wouldn't we?

Not if they could

only travel forward.

Anyway, we might've met

people from the future.

Hmm.

Yeah, they've probably got

very strict guidelines

About what they can say.

Maybe.

Ahh!

What?

Just talk to me.

Hey.

Ahh!

How did you get out?

Go back.

You go back.

Shh, w-We need to keep quiet.

It's daytime.

What are they going to do?

Maya.

Hey!

Maya.

What are you going to do?

Maya be,

Come on, then, beam me up!

Keep quiet!

Shh, Maya!

Come on!

There's nothing in here.

We could've eaten that deer.

Not unless you like it with

green sh*t all over it.

What, you mean like pesto?

Do you think they regret

coming here all at once?

What do you mean?

Mm, they fly fifty billion

light years to get here, then

They can't cope with daylight.

It's like going on the Costa

del sol and realizing you were

Allergic to d*ckheads.

They're not on f***ing holiday.

Well how do you know?

Because when you go to the

Costa del sol you don't

Enslave and slaughter

all the locals.

You don't know that's what

they're doing up there.

For all they know, they could

be taking people somewhere

Better.

And maybe that's why

they haven't left yet.

They're not going to go until

they've rescued everyone.

The reason they haven't left,

Maya, is because they haven't

Killed us all yet.

Are you going to try and

convince yourself that's

Norwegian?

Tell me that doesn't

sound Scandinavian.

But you don't know

what they're saying.

It doesn't matter

what they're saying.

What matters is

people are there.

Well, it could just be a

recording put on a loop.

Well then, there'd need to

be someone there to keep the

Power going.

If people are there, that's

where we need to head.

Yeah, and what about in winter

when it's constant darkness?

Well, then we'll head south.

You haven't got a clue.

They won't disappear.

Can't just keep

running from them.

I'm trying my best in

extremely f***ing difficult

Circumstances.

Well, I'm sorry if the

circumstances are difficult

For you.

How do you think it's been

for me with you constantly

Shutting me out.

Sh-, I'm not shutting you out!

You're here, aren't you?

When did you decide

to give up on us?

Go, go!

Hey.

Can you believe it?

What?

Do you ever listen to the news?

No, what's going on?

They found bin laden yet?

Very funny.

They're saying the asteroid

might actually hit us.

You're kidding me.

Nope.

Washington made an

official statement.

They're saying a 20% chance.

What?

I know!

Holy f***ing sh*t.

Ugh, I've got to go.

I'll see you in an hour, right?

Yeah.

Love you.

Love you too.

Where do you want to

be when it hits us?

If it hits us.

I don't care, as

long as I'm with you.

Do you want to get married?

Yeah, sure.

I'm serious.

Well, so am i.

We might only have a year left

on the planet, so it's not

Exactly a lifetime commitment.

Yes it is.

I'm asking you to spend

the rest of time with me.

But what if it doesn't hit us?

What if it just passes us by?

Then we'll be stuck together.

What, you think I'm going to

dump you just 'cause the world

Hasn't ended?

Okay.

I will marry you on one

condition:

There's no ceremony, no

reception, no church.

We just agree from here on in

that we're officially married.

Agreed.

Okay, give me your left hand.

If we do this, then it's real.

There's no turning back.

For better or for worse.

In sickness and health.

You may now kiss the bride.

I love you.

No matter what.

No matter what.

Get down.

Ugh!

Maybe they were trying

to communicate with us.

Come on.

We're in a perfectly safe place.

It's daylight!

They're not going to get us.

Just calm down.

I won't calm down!

I haven't got a f***ing

clue where we are.

You took me off course.

Me?

Yes, you keep distracting me!

What?

I told you to stay put, but

you wouldn't listen, would

You, and now, as usual, I'm

the one who has to act like a

F***ing adult and protect

us while you piss about.

Piss about?

Yes.

And I'd appreciate it if you

would take our welfare, that's

Mine and your welfare just

a little bit more f***ing

Seriously.

There's no food here.

It's all gone.

I thought you'd

left this behind.

Put some new batteries

in it for you.

Said I'd be home

about half past three

I was heading south,

kicking through the leaves

And last weekend was

when the clocks went back

Summer's gone, but

it don't feel bad

You would've thought by now

that I'd have found my senses

Still I'm running

round, jumping fences

But it's a road I'm running

And it's the only

road that I have known

And still I can't

find my way home

I'll take...

The sun's fading.

We should bed down.

What time is it?

We're going to be late.

Can you just throw that away?

We're like, a few minutes late.

That's all, just relax.

We were supposed to be

in there at quarter to.

I was ready.

You were the one faffing around.

I was trying to find

the medical card.

The medical card you were

supposed to be looking after.

Did you lock up properly?

Yes.

I'll see you inside.

Do you even need me in there?

he was, of course, a rather

Controversial figure.
