Will
I had to squint twice.
I thought I was looking at a ghost.
- How are ya?
- It must be me North Sea tan. I'm good.
You're soaked. Nancy!
Look who's 'ere.
You're a sight for sore eyes.
Gareth Brennan.
- Hey. Nance.
- Good to see you.
You too. love.
- How are you?
- Well. Midlands are brave.
- Is that it?
- Yeah. I travel light.
We'll clear it up
for you tomorrow.
Move stuff around if you like.
It's yours now.
Thanks. mate.
Actually. I've been saving for a flat.
Our own place.
Ah. a member of the
land-owning classes.
Next thing you know, you'll be fox hunting
and blowing a trumpet out your arse.
Ain't that the dream?
How's the boy?
Dunno yet.
- You stayed in touch?
- Oh. yeah.
I sent him presents for his
birthday and Christmas.
Got him some posters and
football magazines.
Well. you're here now.
That's what matters.
- Welcome back. mate.
- Thanks. Davey.
Be a pint on the bar
when you're ready.
Did you see the new
images from the Hubble telescope?
No.
They're getting some brilliant
photos of supernovas.
- Super what?
- A supernova.
Never heard of it.
When a star explodes in an incredible
burst of light and energy.
Do you ever think that me and you and the
rest of the lot here are recyclable?
What do you mean?
I dunno like we're coke bottles
to be melted down and turned
into shopping bags or key rings.
Key rings?
Yeah. you know.
Something cheap and rubbish.
Matter can neither be
created nor destroyed.
- That was Einstein's big idea.
- What's he got to do with rubbish?
Well. Einstein taught us that even things
that are rubbish someday turn into stars.
And that eventually those
stars will explode.
Sending streaks of light
across the night sky
and maybe on a faraway planet.
Someone will see our light
shining down from the heavens...
We'll be supernovas...
Steven Gerrard's a supernova.
Isn't he?
He moves like a tornado on fire.
Twisting in all directions at once.
And always has his
eye on the goal.
The ball is the moon
and he is the earth.
And whatever he wishes
his legs make so.
He's a football supernova.
with his parents.
If they fulfil all their responsibilities.
Mr Brennan.
- And I just want to protect Will.
- So do I.
We are the only family that he has
known for the last three years.
If you leave again.
It will devastate him.
When I leave.
My son is coming with me.
Where.
To an oil rig in the North Sea?
Home.
- And where's that now. Mr Brennan?
- Liverpool.
And if you tire of
your parental duties
and return him to us in a week.
A month. a year?
That won't happen.
You left him with
us for three years.
Now. I understand that it was
a difficult time for you.
Difficult time"?
When Tracy died.
Look...
I know there's no excuse
for what I did to Will.
But the good Lord carried
me through it. Sister.
I just want to be with my son.
"The Eye of God" is
probably the most famous image
the Hubble Telescope
has ever taken.
Of course.
It's not actually God's eye.
Leading astronomers describe it
as "a trillion-milelong
tunnel of glowing gases".
Fart and give us a clue.
But my personal favourite
is Eta Carinae.
One of the biggest
stars in the Milky Way
powerful than our sun.
She. "Heaven's Altar".
Hello. Will.
What are you doing here?
Is there a law that says a man
can't visit his one and only son?
Will. your father has travelled
a long way to see you.
Yeah.
It's been quite the journey.
My legs need a
little stretching.
