246
Prime Minister? Sir?

247
-Ah, you made it? Bravo!
-Oh, I'm so sorry, sir.

248
-I was just--
-No, no. You did well to get here.

249
I gather
half the Downing Street staff didn't?

250
It wasn't easy. Just crossing the road
you take your life in your hands[A1] .

251
Well, then don't.
You are too important to all of us.

252
Hardly[A2] .

253
All I do is bring you things to sign.
Then take them away [A3] again.

254
And so the wheels keep turning,
and the business gets done,

255
and the country is governed.

256
But what's my personal contribution?

257
You improve the quality of life
for all [A4] that deal with you.

258
An ornament[A5] . A flower.

259
By comparison[A6] at my age
you were a published writer[A7] ,

260
and a cavalry[A8]  officer, posted to India,

261
fighting local tribesmen[A9] 
on the north west frontier[A10] .

262
Who told you that?

263
You asked me to engage in a relationship
with a young man, my own age.

264
So I have been reading
your autobiography.

265
[chuckles] Oh, yes.
That's not quite what I had in mind[A11] .

266
"Hear this, young men and women
everywhere, and proclaim it far and wide.

267
The earth is yours
and the fullness thereof.

268
Be kind but be fierce.

269
You are needed now
more than ever before.

270
-Take up the mantle of change...
-Stop.

271
...for this is your time."

272
You were 24.

273
All energy and hope
and passion and fire.

274
It's remarkable[A12] .

275
You found something you liked
in that young man?

276
I did.

277
[alarm clock rings]

278
[reporter] Good morning.

279
The time is eight o'clock on the 7th
of December, and here is the news.

280
The serious fog that brought much
of the capital to a standstill[A13] [A14] yesterday

281
continues this morning, with emergency
services [A15] struggling to cope[A16] 

282
and widespread[A17]  disruption[A18] 
reported across the nation.

283
Flares[A19]  are being used to guide motorists
in parts of the capital.

284
Trains are stopped
or running hours behind [A20] schedule

285
from major London railway stations[A21] .

286
-[church bell chimes[A22] ]
-The Prime Minister is facing criticism

287
for failure to deal
with the mounting crisis.

288
London Airport is closed again today,
with all flights grounded[A23] .

289
-Piss.
-The unmoving fog,

290
which has spread to over 30 miles wide,
is likely to cause complete darkness

291
by two o'clock this afternoon.
