I saw that first you cheeky bastard!

Hello, Nigel.

Oh, lovely catch, that's a beauty.

Oh I'm so proud, I'm so proud.

And you got them all, well done son!

Oh. - I got it, I got it.

Tims, altims, fourteen.

Ow, watch it!

Watch it gramps.

Figure it should only be a minute.

Owww, it had bloody better be.

Give it a rest dad.

Don't you start, both of you put a sock in it.

- Owwww! - That's what I'm saying

I'm on your side.

For once could I just have

a bit of peace and quiet?

Helmet off when

you're in the house.

What's up with you?

What?

You've got a look about you.

- What look? - That look.

It's that smitten with a girl look.

The boy's a romantic just like his grandpa.

It takes one to know one.

That girl.

Nigel, we've been through this.

Is she fit?

She's spinning round the Earth the wrong way, tell him!

All your mother means is, there's no point in wanting

something you can't have.

It will only get you hurt.

No, I appreciate that, just I want more.

Well, eat what you've got first, I haven't fed the sheep yet.

That's not what I mean.

More what love?

There's plenty of geosynchronous girls around.

The Robinson's daughter, three pods down.

She's half my age.

So, wait 'til she isn't.

Be patient.

Be safe.

Like us.

I don't want to be...

Like you.

I'm sorry.

I just

I want more than just safety.

I've spent my whole life in here, just going round

and round and nothing ever happens,

nothing ever changes.

And nobody seems to mind.

I would give a whole lifetime of safety for just

10 seconds with her, just

10 seconds of actually feeling alive!

She must have amazing pods.

Bloody gravity.

Always on the bloody blink.

♪ All my life I have been waiting ♪

Oh ho ho ho!

- Nigel. - Son.

- Son. - Don't crowd him.

Take that off.

Nigel son, Nigel.

Grandson.

- Oh, thank God. - Are you all right?

Are you all right?

Hello son.

Welcome back.

Alright, just relax.

Everything's fine, you're safe.

She threw it and I, I almost caught it.

I think the sun got in my eye, or something, I don't know

but I was so close.

Well that doesn't matter, that doesn't matter.

What's important is that she was trying to get

in touch with me.

She wants to communicate with me and

and I missed it.

And now it's lost.

Girls

are

terrible throwers.

They're one of lifes great enigmas.

Like

what are my nipples for, or

is there life on Earth?

Here you go love.

Lovely.

Some for you son.

What's up with you?

What, nothing.

You've got that look about you.

- What look? - That look.

It's that hiding something from your son look.

My old missus was a bit conniving in her day.

A right trickster.

Hiding what?

What, you're gonna start listening to him

all of a sudden?

Don't be daft.

What?!

So I found the thing that the girl threw.

And I didn't tell you about it because I knew you'd

just get upset.

Up... upset?

That's great!

Where is it?

Mum, where is it?

It's in the soup!

It's a message.

Look, it's a message for me, she wants me to jump.

Oh it's madness.

Tell him!

We almost lost you today son, best be safe.

I told you I don't care about safety.

She's gonna catch me on the next path.

I'm gonna miss her.

No!

No,

no.

Nigel.

You're throwing your life away!

I can make it, she'll catch me.

Stop him!

It's not worth it son.

How would you know?

Nigel, Nigel!

Nigel, Nigel!

Nigel turn around now.

Nigel! - Nigel turn around now!

Nigel!

Nigel, Nigel.

- Nigel! - Nigel!

This is your fault.

You're useless, you let him go.

You could have grabbed him.

And you let him go it's your fault.

That's enough!

You shouldn't have destroyed his note.

That wasn't fair.

Ooh ooh ooh ooh.

Ooh ooh ooh ooh.

Ooh ooh

ohhh

ho.

I tell you what my dear, this isn't one of your best.

It's a piece of the message.

You.

The girl was meant to jump.

Nigel!

Nigel! - Nigel!
