That's better.
:21:19
I found I can hardly speak
these mornings until I've had a cup of tea.

:21:26
Happy birthday, son.
:21:36
Put it there.
:21:46
I wanted to buy you something,
but I couldn't get out to the shops.

:21:53
Thanks, mum.
:22:00
Your father would have been
very proud of you.

:22:05
I think in his heart
he loved you best

:22:08
even though he found it
very hard to show his feelings.

:22:13
Then that's where
you take after him, isn't it?

:22:31
It had been a long day.
:22:33
Eighteen dawns, seventeen sunsets,
:22:36
and yet Commander Hunt
had still not had his breakfast.

:22:39
Hunt knew the Major
did not approve of his maverick ways.

:22:43
'People should just take me as I am'
:22:46
mused Hunt, as he strode
along his Space Station corridor,

:22:49
his faithful dog Cosmo
close to his heels.

:22:52
'Sit down,' said the Major.
:22:54
Cosmo curled up at his master's feet
:22:56
as the Major proceeded
to brief Hunt on his mission...

:22:59
It appeared that minute,
life bearing spores
