but it's the only

possibility right now.

How do you not have tickets?

There are people waiting in line.

What are all these people doing?

Yeah, the people are

just waiting to go through the land.

What do you mean,

by land?

These people are going

through the infected zone.

As you can see there,

the infected zone is very risky.

If you've got the money,

you go by ferry.

If you don't have

the money,

you take the risk.

Oh, no no no.

She doesn't need to go through the zone.

I want to put her

- See you tomorrow.

Don't you go spending

that all in one place.

- Okay, I feel very happy about that.

- Mm-hmm.

What a joke.

If he owns the hotels

I could have a shower.

A shower?

Yeah, well,

I have to say

thanks to you I'm stuck

by the zone tonight.

So if I don't get any award-winning

photographs here,

then I'm gonna make you get me

five shots of tequila...

five shots.

It's the only way to go.

Are you kidding?

Nope, it's the safest way...

five shots of tequila.

Eh, I'll pay you two.

No, the price is five.

Okay, three.

That's my final offer.

Looks like they gave you

the honeymoon suite.

Okay.

Gareth Edwards

Sir Gareth Owen Edwards, CBE (born 12 July 1947) is a Welsh former rugby union player who played scrum-half and has been described by the BBC as "arguably the greatest player ever to don a Welsh jersey".In 2003, in a poll of international rugby players conducted by Rugby World magazine, Edwards was declared the greatest player of all time. In 2007, former England captain Will Carling published his list of the '50 Greatest Rugby players' in The Daily Telegraph, and ranked Edwards the greatest player ever, stating; "He was a supreme athlete with supreme skills, the complete package. He played in the 1970s, but, if he played now, he would still be the best. He was outstanding at running, passing, kicking and reading the game. He sits astride the whole of rugby as the ultimate athlete on the pitch".Edwards was prominent in the Welsh national team that was to the fore in European rugby in the '60s and '70s. He is one of a small group of Welsh players to have won three Grand Slams including Ryan Jones, Adam Jones, Gethin Jenkins, Gerald Davies and J. P. R. Williams.In the 2007 New Year Honours, Edwards became a CBE for services to sport. He was knighted in the Queen's Birthday Honours of 2015, for services to sport and for charitable services. more…
