0:00:05 > 0:00:07The Curious.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09They say he collects strange tales.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11HE DRUMS
0:00:11 > 0:00:13And if you ever hear his whistle,
0:00:13 > 0:00:17you know something creepy is about to unfold.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19No-one knows where he's from...
0:00:19 > 0:00:22..or where he's going to.
0:00:22 > 0:00:26But it's said that his happenings are connected somehow.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Just no-one knows how.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Being away from home is scary enough.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35But imagine if home was on the other side of the universe,
0:00:35 > 0:00:39and you had no idea how you ever going to get back.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Mum?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Boo!
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Oh, come on.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41You're not even a little scared?
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Nothing scary happens in the country, remember?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46That's why you moved us here.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48I saw you flinch.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50You definitely flinched.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53How was your first day?
0:01:53 > 0:01:55What's this?
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Oh, they paired me up with this kid called Spud to show me around,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00who ate like ten bags of crisps.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03And whenever he spoke, he just sprayed them everywhere.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Blah, blah, blah.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07- His name was Spud? - It's a nickname, Mum.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08Ah!
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Oh, well, forget about him. I found you a new friend.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- The neighbour's son. - We have neighbours?
0:02:14 > 0:02:15All the way out here?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Yep, I invited him over.- Mum!
0:02:18 > 0:02:19KNOCK ON DOOR
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Come on, what's the worst that could happen?
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Hi, and you must be Henry.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- MUFFLED: - But everybody calls me Spud.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Glynn Carnival, the kid that used to live in your house,
0:02:40 > 0:02:41had a fort up ahead.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43I guess it's yours now.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Did you have a fort in London?
0:02:44 > 0:02:45We didn't have a garden.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48You didn't have a garden?
0:02:48 > 0:02:49What did you play on?
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Xbox.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Glynn Carnival, he wouldn't shut up about this place.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Said a World War II bomb had exploded here.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10If it's all the same to you, I think I'll be heading back.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Oh, really?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14I'm on the final level of Battleworn.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Are you sure this is a bomb crater?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25It looks more like a...
0:03:26 > 0:03:27..landing site.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31What kind of landing site do you find in the middle of nowhere?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33A crash landing one!
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Come on!
0:03:56 > 0:03:58I should tell you,
0:03:58 > 0:04:00this body's built for comfort, not for speed.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03Look!
0:04:06 > 0:04:07Where's the rest of it?
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Planes break up on impact. Parts spread over miles.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I've never heard of any planes crashing round here.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17This is all overgrown.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19It must've happened years ago.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25There!
0:04:37 > 0:04:39I think this is the black box.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Hello, it's not black.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44It's a recording device that tells you what caused the crash.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55You, sir, are a geek.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57You can seriously fix it?
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Man, you're a total genius.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04My best mate, a total genius.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06I think I'll need a bit more room.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11If we can hook some power up to it,
0:05:11 > 0:05:13we might be able to get this thing working.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Is this going to take a while?
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Maybe I should sleep over.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Oh, look at that.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24It's done.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Well, go on, then.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Aren't you going to press it?
0:05:32 > 0:05:34We don't know what that symbol means.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36What if it means, don't press it?
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Well, why bother fixing it if you don't want to find out what it does?
0:05:55 > 0:05:57You're still a genius to me.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23MACHINE POWERS ON
0:06:25 > 0:06:26FAINT HUMMING
0:06:43 > 0:06:44It works.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Did you see it? Did you see it?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57What are you doing? It's the middle of the night!
0:06:57 > 0:07:00I've got to go find out what the purple light is.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01Come on.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03What? You scared?
0:07:03 > 0:07:04Yeah, I'm scared.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Where I come from, you don't go out in the middle of the night.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09We'll go look in the morning.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11It's a light.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13How are we going to see it in the morning?
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Did you see that movie where the plane crashed on the mountain?
0:07:24 > 0:07:28And the passengers had no food, except these chocolate bars.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32And when the chocolate bars ran out, they started eating each other.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34If it came to it, would you eat me?
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Only to shut you up!
0:07:46 > 0:07:48That's where it's coming from.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11THEY SCREAM
0:08:15 > 0:08:17- We can do this. - No, we can't.- Yeah, we can.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30It's a space suit.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36No...
0:08:38 > 0:08:39It's some kind of...
0:08:39 > 0:08:42..escape capsule.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44A life-support system.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Keeping him asleep until...
0:08:46 > 0:08:48No.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51There's no way it could stay powered up for this many years.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Unless the technology was...
0:08:54 > 0:08:56BEEPING
0:08:57 > 0:08:58..alien.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35- Mum, Mum!- Thomas?
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Outside, someone's chasing us.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38OK, all right. I'm coming.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46What on earth were you doing outside, anyway?
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Good question.
0:09:49 > 0:09:50There!

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Check out his suit!
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I have been separated from my home.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14I must return to them. But for that, I need your help.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16- I should get my mum.- No!
0:11:17 > 0:11:19She must not discover me.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20I can't lie to her.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22She'll call the police, Thomas.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24They'll take him away, and experiment on him.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32OK.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34So, your bogeyman was a cute, little kitty.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37I told you nothing scary ever happens in the country.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Why were you outside anyway?
0:11:42 > 0:11:44BEEPING
0:11:45 > 0:11:48It was a stupid dare.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49We got carried away.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53I'm really glad you're making friends, Thomas,
0:11:53 > 0:11:57but the next time you decide to have a sleepover, let me know, OK?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Now, go to bed.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- That's the best you could come up with?- What?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15It's the only thing my mum wouldn't miss.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17I wore it to my cousin's wedding.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19I can blend in, yes?
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Those symbols on your translator, is that your language?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Yes, it is not as sophisticated as yours.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19You, Thomas.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22You wish Spud's voicebox could be disabled.
0:13:25 > 0:13:30Spud, you are concerned Thomas will smell the gas you regularly emit
0:13:30 > 0:13:31from your body.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52So, where are you two adventurers going?

0:15:48 > 0:15:51No questions from you?

0:16:43 > 0:16:47How much further? I don't know how long he can last.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53We have arrived.
