Anyone want to tell them that they're 947 years too late?

I suppose they've probably come to get their burgers back...

Yes a bit of horse trading could well occur

Ooh! No it isn't.

I don't know but I don't think so. It's supposed to be Dover but I understand it was actually filmed in Wales.

They picked here because of the readily available helicopter facilities....
