Black Sheep Page #5

Synopsis: Growing up on the family sheep farm was idyllic for smart, sensitive Harry Olfield, except for some knavish mischief from cocky brother Angus, until their dad has a fatal accident. Fifteen years later, Harry has finished sheep-phobia therapy and his ICT schooling and returns. Angus buys him out, all ready to present the genetically engineered Oldfield sheep he bred with a ruthless team. When environmentalist Grant steals a discarded embryo, which has sharp teeth, he gets bitten by it, and thus the first to be infected with predatory hunger and a mechanism that turns any mammal into a werewolf version. Running for the farm men, Grant's mate, student Experience, gets teamed up with Harry and his boorish but gentle pastoral youth friend Tucker. They must survive both the bloodthirsty sheep and their creators, who didn't realize this yet but dispose of an antidote.

Tucker,

show them your foot.

Foot?

Henry, I simply won't allow

you to disrupt things today.

What are you going to

do about it, eh?

Whatever I have to.

Angus, are you nuts?

There's a lot riding

on this, Henry. I told you,

it's gonna be

very profitable.

Henry, get out of here. Do something!

Get out of here!

- What?

- Move your ass!

Henry, come on!

Stop!

This way!

In there!

Oh, what's down here?

Look at them, Angus!

Look at you.

The fifth generation farmer's son

who's scared of a few sheep.

You do need therapy.

Ah!

There's no deal, Angus.

We have a contract, Henry.

It's done.

Not with all this

going on.

- Ah!

- Henry!

Help me!

Help me, Angus!

Angus!

I'm your brother!

That's the thing

about farms, Henry,

accidents happen.

- Let me go.

- No. No.

Oh my God!

- Are you okay?

- I'll never be okay ever again.

- What's that?

- Geranium...

aroma therapy for uplift

and hormonal balance.

Do your hormones

really need balancing?

Considering I've been

attacked

by genetically-

engineered monsters,

jumped off a moving vehicle,

been chased across a paddock,

dragged into a torture chamber, pulled

into a mountain of rotting flesh...

yes, my hormones

need f***ing balancing.

- Working yet?

- Uplifting at any moment.

- Where are you going?

- There are caves near the woolshed.

If this is part

of the same system,

we can walk

right under the sheep.

Right.

All he had to do

was leave.

Why wouldn't he

do that?

What happened to those idiots

I sent to collect you?

That looks...

anomalous.

What it looks like

is the spontaneous cellular

transferral

we've been trying to

achieve for months.

Or possibly not

so spontaneous.

- What's going on?

- Nothing.

He'll be out

for a while.

Where's your brother

and that girl?

Oh, don't worry.

They're gone.

Well, I don't know what

they're on about.

The sheep?

Really.

There's too many people

running around here today.

One of those greenies

bit me on my way up the hill.

- Bit you?

- Yeah.

Looked like he hadn't

bathed for months.

Hm, you may

need a shot.

Well.

I want this place secured.

Yeah, I have something

I need to observe here,

but I'll be down

presently.

No. Stay here.

Stay here?

I need to present my work.

Look, the last thing I need is someone

with your reputation

prancing about

the place.

Oh, my reputation didn't

seem to bother you

when you needed someone

to kick-start this venture.

Or when you

wanted to pursue

some personal interests.

I was just coming up with solutions

that you hadn't thought of.

Now I'll send someone

up for the animal.

You lock this place down

and stay out of the way.

What about that shot?

Jonathan King

Jonathan King (born Kenneth George King, 6 December 1944) is an English singer-songwriter, record producer, music entrepreneur, and former television and radio presenter. King first came to prominence in 1965 when "Everyone's Gone to the Moon", a song which he wrote and sang whilst he was still an undergraduate, had chart success in Britain and the United States. The Guardian reported in 2002 that he had sold over 40 million records in his career. As an independent producer, he discovered and named Genesis in 1967, and produced their first album From Genesis to Revelation. He founded his own label, UK Records in 1972. He released and produced songs for 10cc and the Bay City Rollers. In the 1970s King became known for hits that he performed and produced under different names, including "Johnny Reggae", "Loop di Love", "Hooked On A Feeling" and "Una Paloma Blanca"; between September 1971 and 1972 alone he produced 10 top 30 singles in the UK. Rod Liddle described him as someone who could "storm the pop charts at will, under a hundred different disguises".While living in New York in the 1980s, King continued to appear on radio and television in the UK, including on the BBC's Top of the Pops and Entertainment USA. In the early 1990s he produced the Brit Awards, and from 1995 he selected and produced the British entries for the Eurovision Song Contest, including the winning entry in 1997, "Love Shine A Light" by Katrina and the Waves.In September 2001, King was convicted of child sexual abuse and sentenced to seven years in prison, for having sexually assaulted five boys, aged 14 and 15, in the 1980s. In November 2001 he was acquitted of 22 similar charges. He was released on parole in March 2005. In May 2017, he was again charged with historical sexual offences. more…
