0:00:02 > 0:00:04- I brought you these. - Mr Romantic.

0:00:04 > 0:00:05I'm glad you're here.

0:00:05 > 0:00:07Hang on, you think me and Tyler...

0:00:07 > 0:00:10I saw you. All touchy-feely, giggly, wink-wink.

0:00:10 > 0:00:14Alli, are you calling him because he feels bad or you do?

0:00:14 > 0:00:16Having a boyfriend is meant to be fun.

0:00:17 > 0:00:18This isn't fun.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53'How to find my soul mate.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56'I'll know he's my soul mate because he'll give me flowers,

0:00:56 > 0:00:58'protect me from danger

0:00:58 > 0:01:00'and say stuff that makes me go gooey inside.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03'He will probably be the best-looking boy on the island,

0:01:03 > 0:01:06'though this is less important because

0:01:06 > 0:01:08'I'm not going to be that shallow.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10'He will always be there for me

0:01:10 > 0:01:13'but he will never stop me from hanging out with my friends.

0:01:14 > 0:01:15'My many cool friends.'

0:01:17 > 0:01:18SHE SIGHS

0:01:18 > 0:01:20I've got news for you, Alli Boulsworth,

0:01:20 > 0:01:22age eight and three quarters...

0:01:22 > 0:01:25- SHE SNIFFS - ..none of this works out.

0:01:26 > 0:01:27Alli.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Alli!

0:01:32 > 0:01:35I'm heading into the village. Do you want to come and hang out?

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Since when do we hang out?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Since we both don't have no-one else to hang out with.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- I've got people to hang out with. - Name one.

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Not Charlie the horse.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52I don't need mates right now. I need to concentrate on my work,

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Get my life back on track.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Someone should have told me when I wrote this,

0:01:58 > 0:02:00your love life comes second and studies first.

0:02:00 > 0:02:01What's that?

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Probably a seal.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Didn't look like a seal.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10What did it look like?

0:02:11 > 0:02:14For a minute, I thought it was a person.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20Seal.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21Person.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Seal.

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Person.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28What's going on?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31She saw someone like a mile out at sea.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36It's probably just a seal.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38It didn't look like a seal.

0:02:50 > 0:02:56We didn't find anyone and nobody has been reported missing.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Sorry.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00It's so choppy out there, we nearly capsized three times.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Really, really sorry.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06What are you talking about? It was fantastic!

0:03:07 > 0:03:10We'll buy you a hot chocolate when you dry out, if you want.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13I've got to be somewhere.

0:03:20 > 0:03:21It was not a seal.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Will you stop going on about it?

0:03:25 > 0:03:27But it wasn't, I'm sure.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31What you saw was probably a selkie -

0:03:31 > 0:03:33a mysterious sea creature.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37In the water, it takes the form of a seal.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39Seal.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43But when it gets near land, it takes human form.

0:03:43 > 0:03:44Aha.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47A selkie only comes when a lost and lonely girl cries

0:03:47 > 0:03:50her tears into the sea.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52Then it offers her three gifts.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58And if she accepts, it will meet her at the cliffs,

0:03:58 > 0:04:00where she will hear the selkie song

0:04:00 > 0:04:04and he will become her soul mate forever.

0:04:04 > 0:04:05Soul mate?

0:04:07 > 0:04:09You cried into the sea, I saw you.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Maybe it was a seal AND a person.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Maybe you called a selkie.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21What do you reckon a hottie from the sea even looks like?

0:04:21 > 0:04:24Who cares? That's not the point.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Weirdo.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29There's more to life than having a boyfriend.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32You know people only say that when they don't have one.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37An ordinary £1 coin.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39I could spend it on chocolate,

0:04:39 > 0:04:41I could spend it on crisps,

0:04:41 > 0:04:42I could...

0:04:44 > 0:04:45..throw it over my shoulder.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49Am I that mad? I must be.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51I just did it, didn't I?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Except...

0:04:53 > 0:04:54What's this?

0:04:57 > 0:05:00Bradley, you had it all the time.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02BRADLEY OINKS

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Yes, I am amazing, thank you.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Izzy, stop messing before Dad sees you.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12You do not want to get him any more wound up.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15I've been practising this all night.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16This is so cool.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Let me show you.

0:05:18 > 0:05:19Izzy.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Are you mucking out that pig?

0:05:22 > 0:05:23No autographs, fans.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Must've asked her about five times.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31She's improving. It was seven yesterday.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Yeah. Here, I've got a job for you.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Mum's eternity ring. I want you to take it into Ferry Head

0:05:41 > 0:05:42and get it polished up.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Oh, Dad, you smoothie.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Well, you know how much that means to us,

0:05:46 > 0:05:48- so be careful.- Leave it to me.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Do you really think I'm weird because I haven't had a boyfriend?

0:05:56 > 0:05:59I think you are weird for lots of reasons.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02It's not my fault. None of the losers around here ever talk to me.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05You could be a little less aggressive.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07What are you talking about? Aggressive?

0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Say that again, I dare you! - All right!

0:06:10 > 0:06:11I'd fix you up on a blind date

0:06:11 > 0:06:14but I can't think of a boy I'd want to be that cruel to.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19Then again, there is someone.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Hang on, I never said that...

0:06:22 > 0:06:27He's tall, funny. He's got tonnes of unique qualities, actually.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30He is perfect for you.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32There is no way you're going to say no to this.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39SEAGULLS CRY

0:06:44 > 0:06:46"Alli"?

0:06:46 > 0:06:48SEAGULLS CRY

0:07:06 > 0:07:07A map?

0:07:08 > 0:07:1150 paces east.

0:07:12 > 0:07:13The wish cave.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44'Make sure soul mate knows my favourite flower.'

0:08:03 > 0:08:05What?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Hey, wait!

0:08:20 > 0:08:21Did you do this?

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Wait!

0:08:28 > 0:08:30I said, "Unsinkable?

0:08:30 > 0:08:32- HE LAUGHS - "I don't think so.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36"One iceberg would tear right through that thing."

0:08:36 > 0:08:38And I ripped my ticket up.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43We were talking about selkies, not the Titanic.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46Ah, yes, must have got sidetracked.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49What was the question again?

0:08:49 > 0:08:53A selkie couldn't know something without asking, could it?

0:08:53 > 0:08:55I mean, in your story?

0:08:56 > 0:08:59They are not a story,

0:08:59 > 0:09:02they're genuine, mythical creatures,

0:09:02 > 0:09:06and yes, a selkie would know your heart's desire.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Are you sure you don't make this stuff up as you go along?

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Well, Alli Boulsworth...

0:09:12 > 0:09:15..it's for you to decide what you believe.

0:09:15 > 0:09:19But think, when you cried those tears into the sea,

0:09:19 > 0:09:20what were they for?

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Maybe you already believed.

0:09:26 > 0:09:31But, if my stories are not wanted, I shall go for my lunch.

0:09:31 > 0:09:36Hang on, I need you to translate this map, my Welsh is rubbish.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Any further questions, take them up with my executive assistant.

0:09:42 > 0:09:43Who?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52You work here?

0:09:53 > 0:09:55I thought I might make some extra money.

0:09:55 > 0:09:56I'm finished with exams.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01What's that?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05You can read Welsh.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Help me follow this map and I'll help you with the most boring

0:10:08 > 0:10:09job in the store, you name it.

0:10:13 > 0:10:14Deal.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Where is it supposed to lead to?

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Maybe something I've been looking for, for a really long time.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34Where you been?

0:10:34 > 0:10:37We were supposed to be in Ferry Head an hour ago.

0:10:37 > 0:10:43My mum - "Stack the dishwasher", she says, so I stacked the dishwasher.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45"Not like that", she says.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Then she takes it all out and she stacks it again.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52Whaa... Every day, this has happened.

0:10:52 > 0:10:53Why ask me in the first...

0:10:53 > 0:10:58Roll up, roll up for the finest display of magic

0:10:58 > 0:10:59this side of the cow shed.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02That is Mum's eternity ring, give that back.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06One shiny ring. I can let you take it to Ferry Head...

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Izzy?- ..or I could...

0:11:09 > 0:11:11..throw it over my shoulder.

0:11:11 > 0:11:12Am I that mad?

0:11:12 > 0:11:16I must be, I just did it, didn't I?

0:11:16 > 0:11:17Except...

0:11:20 > 0:11:21- What's this?- It's a coin.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25That's not right.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Izzy, stop messing about.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29I'm not messing about.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39You idiot.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Where did you say you got this again?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46I don't know his name.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48What does he look like?

0:11:48 > 0:11:49About our age.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Nice eyes, lovely cheekbones.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58Just keep counting, OK.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07You realise this is the first time we spoke since we broke up?

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Well, things got a bit weird.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14If your dad was dating the headteacher, you'd act funny too.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19But you got so possessive and little tip for the future,

0:12:19 > 0:12:21romance is not a two-for-one pizza voucher.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24It can be, it depends who it's with.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31What's your big idea of romance anyway?

0:12:33 > 0:12:35I don't know.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37Something unexpected.

0:12:38 > 0:12:39This.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44You'd never have come up with this in a million years.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47Well I'm not Mr Cheekbones, am I?

0:12:47 > 0:12:51It now says, 50 paces...

0:12:52 > 0:12:54..that way.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56Is that a boat?

0:13:01 > 0:13:03No, it's too far.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06I've got my 50 metres.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10What you even think is out there?

0:13:10 > 0:13:12My heart's desire, part two, I guess.

0:13:15 > 0:13:20You can achieve anything you want in life, I mean, if you want it badly.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23SHE YELLS

0:13:23 > 0:13:25- SHE GASPS - It's freezing!

0:13:32 > 0:13:34You'd never make a lifeguard.

0:13:36 > 0:13:37But you would.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42I don't know who is more mad, you or me?

0:13:47 > 0:13:48Be careful, OK?

0:14:03 > 0:14:04Hey, wait!

0:14:13 > 0:14:15That is not fair.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Why won't you just come and talk to me?

0:14:27 > 0:14:30You were supposed to throw the 10p coin and keep the ring in hand.

0:14:30 > 0:14:34So I got it the wrong way, I've only been doing it a day.

0:14:35 > 0:14:39Izzy, that's why I like you, you totally take all the heat off me.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43I tell you not to annoy Dad and you do the most annoying thing possible.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47Do you want to be the last foster kid we ever take in?

0:14:47 > 0:14:49It was an accident.

0:14:58 > 0:14:59Lucas.

0:15:01 > 0:15:02Lucas!

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Here.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13Is this all there was?

0:15:13 > 0:15:15What happened to my heart's desire?

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Unbelievable.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21That is the second time today I've risked life and limb for you.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Lucas, that's it.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Protect me from danger.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28The second wish of my life plan.

0:15:28 > 0:15:32I think I was meant to swim out and he was meant to rescue me.

0:15:35 > 0:15:39Lucas, I can't translate myself.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41Lucas, I need you.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48- I look like a Shetland pony. - Just remember,

0:15:48 > 0:15:52always laugh at his jokes, even when they're not funny.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Who is he?- If I told you that then it wouldn't be a blind date.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Izzy, this is not the time for practice.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12I'm trying to recreate the mistake.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15It looks like a lot like your stuffing your face.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Get down in the mud and... METAL DETECTOR BEEPS

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Ha-ha, yes!

0:16:28 > 0:16:31The tipper mobile.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33I lost this about four years ago.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37This is like looking for a ring in a mud bath.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40You're right - it's pointless.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42- I'll see you later. - Where are you going?

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Ferry Head.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Where are you going?

0:16:50 > 0:16:53- To own up.- No, look, we've still got time.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56We'll still be looking next week.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59So-so I'll say I did it.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02I did it - I pay the price.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06DOG BARKS

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Why do I get the feeling that Izzy is about to be in big trouble?

0:17:13 > 0:17:14What?

0:17:30 > 0:17:31DOG GROWLS

0:17:44 > 0:17:45DOOR BANGS

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Ah, Izzy. You sorted that pig out?

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Yeah.- Oh, OK.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Right.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Well, I'm sorry if I had a go.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00I can see that you're trying.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05Why don't we make this a new start between us, eh?

0:18:05 > 0:18:09Could we do the new start after I tell you that...

0:18:11 > 0:18:13..I've lost Sarah's ring?

0:18:15 > 0:18:17I'll pay you back.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20It should only take me 10 or 15 years.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22FRONT DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS

0:18:24 > 0:18:25I know where it is.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28It's inside Wayne II.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41See Lucas Summer,

0:18:41 > 0:18:43he does have nice cheekbones.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- You do know you look like a Shetland...- Yeah, I do, thanks.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Do you mind going somewhere else?

0:19:08 > 0:19:12- I'm waiting for someone.- I'm waiting for someone myself, actually.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18- No...- Way.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- Well, that's great. - Wait-wait a minute.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27There's this party and I've told everyone I'm bringing my girlfriend.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29So what?

0:19:29 > 0:19:30So, you're out now

0:19:30 > 0:19:34and you've made some effort to look halfway presentable.

0:19:34 > 0:19:35See you.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38To look nice!

0:19:38 > 0:19:40Er, very nice, actually.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44So, why not come?

0:19:44 > 0:19:47You don't even have to speak to me and...there will be snacks.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54..19, 20.

0:19:56 > 0:19:57OK.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Stuff that would make me go gooey inside.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30- SHE SIGHS - More Welsh. Oh, come on.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Have you, er, seen any of the Expendables movies?

0:20:35 > 0:20:36No.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02HOOTERS BLARE AND CHILDREN SHOUT

0:21:03 > 0:21:04Ah, we're here.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09It's a little kids' party.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12They're mature for their age.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14It's those brats who follow you round and their Year 7 mates.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17A party is a party is...

0:21:17 > 0:21:18a party.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23You're going to tell people about this, aren't you?

0:21:23 > 0:21:26You have made me feel a whole lot less weird.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Stay for one round of Pass The Parcel.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37You seriously expect me to read this?

0:21:37 > 0:21:38Come on, please.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42I know it sounds stupid but I think someone...

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Someone really special sent me this.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53It's by some old, local poet.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55It's called The Cliffs Of Derglemore.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00# Meet me On the cliffs of Derglemore

0:22:00 > 0:22:03# And we will remember The days of yore

0:22:03 > 0:22:05# When you and I were an island All our own

0:22:05 > 0:22:08# Paradise then Now lost and overgrown

0:22:09 > 0:22:13# From the Ballybungy shores We hear the seal sing

0:22:13 > 0:22:15# I would again Be your everything

0:22:16 > 0:22:19# So meet me On the cliffs of Derglemore

0:22:19 > 0:22:22# And we will be happy For evermore. #

0:22:30 > 0:22:31It's him.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34What?

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Got to be the cliffs.

0:22:54 > 0:22:55Awesome chips.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59- I'm sorry I didn't bring any money. - Forget it.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03I was in a rush and I left it all in my other trousers.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05That's pretty basic,

0:23:05 > 0:23:07making sure you've got money on a date.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11- HE SNEEZES - Oh, sorry, erm, it's these flowers.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13My allergies.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18How many dates have you actually been on?

0:23:18 > 0:23:20Oh, too many to count.

0:23:22 > 0:23:23Well, a few.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27None.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29So why do you have to big yourself up all the time?

0:23:29 > 0:23:30I don't know.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34Cos people think there's something wrong with you,

0:23:34 > 0:23:35which there isn't, obviously.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40I do ask girls out.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43What, girls like Madison who you know are going to knock you back?

0:23:43 > 0:23:45Well, I wouldn't say that.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48So there's no danger in having to actually be with one.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53You think that's weird?

0:23:53 > 0:23:54No, I don't.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59If you are not ready yet, then you are not ready.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02It's OK to wait until the time comes

0:24:02 > 0:24:03and the time never comes.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05That's OK, too.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15SEAL BARKS

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Seals.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20OK.

0:24:20 > 0:24:21I know what you are.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I know that you're a seal who turns into a boy

0:24:26 > 0:24:28and I love all this.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32The flowers and the boat and the poem...

0:24:32 > 0:24:34- SEAL BARKS - ..and the fun we had.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37The fun we had finding it all.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45You're ruining my reporting here.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49The seals.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Oh, you are studying them?

0:24:53 > 0:24:57I come here to see them in their natural habitat.

0:24:57 > 0:25:01I learn one thing for sure, a seal does not turn into a person.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04You know this, yes?

0:25:04 > 0:25:05It's not possible.

0:25:16 > 0:25:17Watch out.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24- Oh, my gosh, I'm such an idiot. - What?

0:25:24 > 0:25:25My perfect boy.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Someone who lives in the sea.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32Good basis to start a relationship, Alli(!)

0:25:32 > 0:25:36And anyway, do I really want to be stuck with my soul mate right now?

0:25:37 > 0:25:40I've got research to do.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43Fun to have, more important stuff.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46Mythical beasts do not do romantic things.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48No.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51People do.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56You?

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Lucas, why?

0:26:00 > 0:26:02I was working in the back of the store and I heard the oldest man

0:26:02 > 0:26:05telling you all that selkie rubbish. I thought...

0:26:07 > 0:26:09I thought maybe I could be your selkie.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Shower you with gifts, protect you, make you go all gooey inside.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17I didn't know you were going to give that guy all the credit.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18You read my life plan.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Tyler read your life plan but he told it to me

0:26:21 > 0:26:23and anyone else who'd listen.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Look, Alli, I messed things up between us, I know I did,

0:26:26 > 0:26:29but it felt like you didn't even want me around any more.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31What can I do to prove that we...

0:26:33 > 0:26:35What?

0:26:35 > 0:26:38I was going to say soul mates until a minute ago.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43I don't need a soul mate yet.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47I need something better.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49A friend.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00Oh, yeah, who's this, then?

0:27:01 > 0:27:03Someone I made up.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05Way back.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Hey, you, how was your date?

0:27:11 > 0:27:12It was...

0:27:13 > 0:27:14..not weird.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17Not weird at all.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23Come on, Wayne II, please.

0:27:23 > 0:27:24Do you know what?

0:27:24 > 0:27:27Some people think that love's about fancy words

0:27:27 > 0:27:30and big, extravagant gestures.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33But it's not.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38You've got to wait until you find someone who will do that for you.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42DOG BARKS

0:27:42 > 0:27:46It's a postbox that allows you to correspond with anyone from history.

0:27:46 > 0:27:47Just imagine if it really worked.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50Brandon started writing to his mum and he reckons he is getting replies.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53This is a letter that I got from the mountain post

0:27:53 > 0:27:55and this is the one that I got from me mum when she was still alive.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57The handwriting is exactly the same.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59The Knot looks after us when we haven't got anyone else.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02- You have now. - The mountain post works, it works.
