The story so far
Everything you need before watchingOn the way home Steve names what matters most: that his children are healthy, that he is healthy, more than any award. He would throw the trophies in a river, not the sea, so scuba divers could still retrieve them. At his father Bernard's house there is a conservatory, tea for the troops, and a warning: no politics, thank you.
