Apocalypse is when the family joins for Christmas. So my bet is 24th 10 pm your time!

But then I am living a dream.

I probably lived through the Apocalypse already.

Don't worry, it's not really the end of the world for us - he does indeed come out of retirement for another season.

Well, we've got about 33 minutes left. Anybody coming for a swift pint or 10 ? Those busy pushing lawyers off cliffs are excused - the last minute effort for humanity is much appreciated - we shall toast your health.
