Welcome to Decomposed Radio 093. Here at Techno Towers, we're still reeling from the amazing "galloWay fEST" up in the Scottish Borders which  was an incredible display of the talent and creativity that we're lucky enough to be surrounded by, which was the original inspiration to creating the podcast, to give it all a platform. With that in mind welcome another new artist to the Decomposed Radio Roster... Funkness Device. Also known as Steve Cox he's a "lifer" climber now living out in Spain, but still with firm roots in the Peak District. The set we're featuring today was recorded at "Tribe of Frog" in Spain where it went down an absolue storm. For those of you not in the know... Tribe of Frog are the UK's legendary psychadelic party producers originating in Bristol that specialise in spectacular decor, cutting edge techno, psy-trance and more. It still runs regularly down in Bristol, while the original owners Chris and Donna Rana continue to put on nights out in the Costa Blanca, featuring sun, sea, cervezas, psy-trance and techno...... which all sounds pretty good to me! As a DJ, Funkness Device likes to take the crowd on a journey, which is definitely what it's all about and as such his mix is a bit of a marathon mission through nu disco, breakbeats, tech house, dark deep acid techno and psy-trance.... so definitely something for everyone!! So settle yourselves in and get lost in the music. This is Decomposed Radi show 093, with Funkness Device........

You're back with Decomposed Radio! For show 92 we're heading back to 1992, and the release date of one of my favourite albums... "Experience" by the Prodigy. It's high time to flip the cassette and check out side 2 of "Sam's Piano Tape" that I know alot of people have been waiting for. We've had some incredible feedback and psyche from Side 1 on Show 91 and it seems everyone's really enjoyed turning the clock back to a simpler time with great vibes and great sounds! Piano house, happy hardcore and bouncy techno are what it's all about, and smiling faces at wild warehouse raves are clearly the order of the day. I'll keep it brief, as those of you that have listened to show 91 are fully clued up by now, but I just want to do a big shout out and thanks to Sam Townsend for providing the psyche and energy to get these two amazing mixes onto the show.If you enjoy both sides of Sam's Piano Tape as much as everyone seems to be then it's worth rewinding the Decomposed Radio clock and checking out show number 12 all the way back in 2016. The "Back 2 Skool Mix" featured on that show should definitely hit some of the same notes! We're rapidly hurtling towards our one hundredth show, so expect something very special for that, not to mention some mixes from Decomposed Radio favourites over the next few months. In the meantime however, here's what you've all been waiting for......... Sam's Piano Tape side 2.....for Decomposed Radio show 092. Get those hands right back in the air!!!!!

For Decomposed Radio show 091 we're rewinding back to the early 90's. The dole and Stoney Dale scene of the 80's has given way to bolts in Chee Dale and sport climbing trips to Buoux or Ceuse, whilst the gritstone lies asleep, waiting for the release of Hard Grit a few years later to re-awaken the psyche. Bouldering is in it's infancy, and nobody has even heard of a crash pad, however...... there is another new and growing scene reaching fever pitch around Hunter's Bar... RAVING!! Dance music has yet to really split into it's sub genres, but by far the most fun and main focus for the time was "happy hardcore" and "bouncy techno." If there didn't happen to be on the infamous "Foundry parties" happening, gags of climbers could be seen piling ito 205 GTI's, giddy with excitement and heading off for all nighters such as the BYO in Doncaster, or Vibalite in Mansfield. Pre instgram, facebook, CDJ's and Traktor, one take vinyl mixes were carefully and lovingly recorded on C90 cassettes. Sam Townsend, and student in Manchester at the time had brought such a mixtape back home to Hathersage where it resided at his holiday job behind the counter at Outside. Simply known as "Sam's Piano Tape" it became a massive favourite with the crew there and before long, it seemed that half the Sheffield climbing scene had a copy! Despite the kudos Sam earned, he guiltily admits it wasn't his wizardry behind the decks, but that of his mate Sunil's with whom he's long since lost tough. (If you're out there listening Sunil.. RESPECT!!!) Luckily the tape survived despite hundreds of plays, and Sam's managed to get it digitised and cleaned up.  So here it is for your listening pleasure.... get your white gloves out, crack out the glow sticks, shout out to the whistle posse and get your hands in the air... for Sam's Piano Tape side 1, on Decomposed Radio #091........

SIX FEET UNDER guitarist Jack Owen joins us this week on The Loaded Radio Podcast to discus theband's new album "Killing For Revenge" plus much more From the opening moments of "Know-Nothing Ingrate," which kicks off "Killing for Revenge", it's immediately clear that SIX FEET UNDER focused their energies into something that's as brutal, lyrically visceral and musically dazzling as one would hope for from the ground-breaking Tampa-bred death metal lineup on their 14th studio album. "Killing for Revenge", a gnarly beast of a record that's not for the faint-hearted, dishes up nightmare-inducing imagery courtesy of frontman Chris Barnes via the vocalist's trademark guttural vocals. Both the album title and darkly detailed red-hued album cover by artist Vince Locke are perfect containers for the brutality within. "Killing for Revenge" marks the second album that Barnes and guitarist Jack Owen (both ex-CANNIBAL CORPSE) have created together since reuniting for 2020's "Nightmares of the Decomposed", an album one critic praised an "often slow-ish and doomy yet crushing death metal" which offered an "uncompromising show of strength." Owen also produced "Killing for Revenge", with Barnes as production assistant. SIX FEET UNDER was initially formed as a side project for Barnes during his final years with the band that he co-founded, CANNIBAL CORPSE. It became the frontman's sole focus in 1995, coinciding with the release of their debut, "Haunted". Only Barnes remains from the original SFU band, but the quality has remained remarkably consistent. The current lineup of Barnes, guitarists Owen and Ray Suhy, bassist Jeff Hughell, and drummer Marco Pitruzzella make for a devastating unit. Jack Owen: A Shredding Force in Death Metal But let's get into Jack himself. Jack Owen, a name synonymous with brutal riffs and pummeling grooves, has carved a legendary path through the world of death metal. Born in December 1967 in Akron, New York, Owen's musical journey began with a love for blues and country, influenced by his father's guitar playing. This diverse background would later add unexpected depth to his ferocious metal creations. CANNIBAL CORPSE and Early Success (1988-2004): Owen's foray into extreme metal began in 1988 when he co-founded the band that would define his early career: CANNIBAL CORPSE. Alongside vocalist Chris Barnes, Owen became a driving force behind the band's signature sound, characterized by technical proficiency, unrelenting aggression, and lyrics that reveled in the macabre. Albums like "Tomb of the Mutilated" and "Butchered At Birth" cemented CANNIBAL CORPSE's status as death metal pioneers, and Owen's shredding guitar work became a hallmark of the genre. DEICIDE, SIX FEET UNDER and Beyond (2004-Present): In 2004, Owen left CANNIBAL CORPSE to pursue other musical endeavors. These endeavors would turn out to be DEICIDE, replacing the Hoffman brothers, where he remained a member of the brutal band until 2016. The following year, he joined his former CORPSE bandmate Chris Barnes in SIX FEET UNDER where he not only remains, but also plays such a massive part of in the way of production, writing and performing. The reunion proved fruitful, with Owen's songwriting partnership with Barnes breathing new life into SIX FEET UNDER. They've released a string of critically acclaimed albums together, including their latest effort "Killing for Revenge" which showcases Owen's relentless ferocity remains undiminished. Beyond Death Metal: Despite his association with death metal, Owen's musical tastes are eclectic. He has expressed admiration for blues and country legends, and even filled in for a short period with the band ADRIFT, showcasing his versatility as a guitarist. A Legacy of Brutal Brilliance: Jack Owen's impact on death metal is undeniable. His innovative riffs, technical prowess, and songwriting skills have influenced countless musicians. During this episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, Jack sits down with Loaded Radio's Scott Penfold and discusses everything from the latest SIX FEET UNDER album, the history and evolution of death metal, his love for animals, his relationship with Barnes, the early days of CANNIBAL CORPSE and also whether he believes that a tour featuring both bands will ever happen.

Nearly 200 Decomposed Bodies Unearthed at Colorado Funeral Home

Two Colorado funeral home owners are facing trial after allegedly abandoning nearly 200 bodies they were responsible for cremation or burying, storing the remains in a neglected building for extended periods. Judge William Moller ruled that Carie Hallford, co-owner of Return to Nature Funeral Home, can face trial on 260 counts, including corpse abuse, money laundering, forgery, and theft. The investigation into the funeral home's practices began in early October following reports of a foul odor emanating from the building. The Hallfords were subsequently arrested in Oklahoma around a month later. Jon Hallford, also a co-owner, was initially scheduled for a preliminary hearing on January 4. However, his defense counsel requested a continuance, citing the need to review over 7,000 pages of documents. His preliminary hearing has been rescheduled to February 8. Additionally, his bond was reduced from a $2 million cash-only bond to a $100,000 cash property or surety bond. Judge Moller, at the request of Carie Hallford's attorney, significantly reduced her bond from $2 million to $100,000, potentially allowing her release from jail while the trial is pending. He noted that the crimes attributed to the Hallfords were not violent in nature, and Carie Hallford had no prior criminal record. The judge remarked, "The behavior of the Hallfords was designed to prevent the discovery of the bodies." Leading up to the discovery in October, the Hallfords faced financial difficulties, missed tax payments, eviction from one of their properties, and legal action for unpaid bills from a crematory that had ceased doing business with them. While prosecutors have not detailed a motive for the Hallfords' actions, FBI agent Andrew Cohen testified about the horrific conditions at the Penrose, Colorado building where decomposing bodies were found. The bodies were stored at room temperature, stacked on top of each other, and infested with flies and maggots. Text messages between the Hallfords revealed growing financial pressures and fears of being caught for mishandling the bodies. Jon Hallford even suggested disposing of the bodies by burying them with other deceased individuals or treating them with lye or fire, according to the presented texts. Judge Moller observed that the evidence pointed to a "pattern of ongoing behavior" aimed at evading detection. The Hallfords also allegedly provided concrete mix to families instead of ashes. Carie Hallford's lawyer, Michael Stuzynski, argued that, apart from surveillance video from September 9 showing Jon Hallford moving some bodies, there was no evidence of intentional mistreatment of the remains, suggesting "passive neglect." As the case proceeds to trial, the shocking allegations surrounding the mishandling of these bodies have left many questions unanswered and have cast a spotlight on the need for stricter oversight and regulations within the funeral home industry.

Two Colorado funeral home owners are facing trial after allegedly abandoning nearly 200 bodies they were responsible for cremation or burying, storing the remains in a neglected building for extended periods. Judge William Moller ruled that Carie Hallford, co-owner of Return to Nature Funeral Home, can face trial on 260 counts, including corpse abuse, money laundering, forgery, and theft. The investigation into the funeral home's practices began in early October following reports of a foul odor emanating from the building. The Hallfords were subsequently arrested in Oklahoma around a month later. Jon Hallford, also a co-owner, was initially scheduled for a preliminary hearing on January 4. However, his defense counsel requested a continuance, citing the need to review over 7,000 pages of documents. His preliminary hearing has been rescheduled to February 8. Additionally, his bond was reduced from a $2 million cash-only bond to a $100,000 cash property or surety bond. Judge Moller, at the request of Carie Hallford's attorney, significantly reduced her bond from $2 million to $100,000, potentially allowing her release from jail while the trial is pending. He noted that the crimes attributed to the Hallfords were not violent in nature, and Carie Hallford had no prior criminal record. The judge remarked, "The behavior of the Hallfords was designed to prevent the discovery of the bodies." Leading up to the discovery in October, the Hallfords faced financial difficulties, missed tax payments, eviction from one of their properties, and legal action for unpaid bills from a crematory that had ceased doing business with them. While prosecutors have not detailed a motive for the Hallfords' actions, FBI agent Andrew Cohen testified about the horrific conditions at the Penrose, Colorado building where decomposing bodies were found. The bodies were stored at room temperature, stacked on top of each other, and infested with flies and maggots.

But Jaylen Griffin and his puppy never makes it home that evening. It seems as though Jaylen has vanished into thin air. Neighborhood searches, flyers, reward money, nothing helps bring the boy home. Three months after Jaylen goes missing his older brother is murdered, shot dead almost in front of their Buffalo, New York home. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years. In September 2023, Jaylen's mother dies,never knowing what happened to her 12-year-old son. Months after her passing, the decomposed remains of Jaylen Griffin are found in the attic of a house about 5-miles from where Jaylen lived in south Buffalo. The house was no stranger to law enforcement and many people wonder how it was possible the remains of a child could decompose in the attic of a house with many residents and nobody smelled or saw anything.

Funeral home owners face challenges such as lack of time, staff shortages, and inexperienced licensed personnel. Dealing with unique cases is a common occurrence in the funeral industry, with various conditions and circumstances presenting themselves. Managing the medical examiner contract involves being on call and ready to respond within a short timeframe. Transportation and time constraints can be challenging, especially when dealing with cases that require travel to distant locations. Funeral directors often encounter difficult and memorable removals and transfers, including decomposed bodies and challenging environments. Despite the challenges, many funeral directors find fulfillment and satisfaction in their work, driven by a genuine love for their profession and the opportunity to serve their community.

DoRA: Weight-Decomposed Low-Rank Adaptation

Among the widely used parameter-efficient finetuning (PEFT) methods, LoRA and its variants have gained considerable popularity because of avoiding additional inference costs. However, there still often exists an accuracy gap between these methods and full fine-tuning (FT). In this work, we first introduce a novel weight decomposition analysis to investigate the inherent differences between FT and LoRA. Aiming to resemble the learning capacity of FT from the findings, we propose Weight-Decomposed LowRank Adaptation (DoRA). DoRA decomposes the pre-trained weight into two components, magnitude and direction, for fine-tuning, specifically employing LoRA for directional updates to efficiently minimize the number of trainable parameters. By employing DoRA, we enhance both the learning capacity and training stability of LoRA while avoiding any additional inference overhead. DoRA consistently outperforms LoRA on fine-tuning LLaMA, LLaVA, and VL-BART on various downstream tasks, such as commonsense reasoning, visual instruction tuning, and image/video-text understanding. 2024: Shih-yang Liu, Chien-Yi Wang, Hongxu Yin, Pavlo Molchanov, Yu-Chiang Frank Wang, Kwang-Ting Cheng, Min-Hung Chen https://arxiv.org/pdf/2402.09353v1.pdf

An Alabama couple, Michael Shane Halstead, 44, and Karen Tysinger Halstead, 43, have been arrested and charged with one count each of abuse of a corpse after the severely decomposed body of their 19-year-old son, Logan Michael Halstead, was allegedly found stuffed in a freezer behind their recently vacated home. The grisly discovery unfolded on October 29 when the new owners of the property, who had plans to dispose of the freezer in the yard, found it too heavy to load onto a trailer. Upon attempting to clean it, they were met with a horrifying sight—a hand inside the overturned freezer. Promptly contacting authorities, deputies arrived at the scene at 11:37 a.m. Sheriff Eric Blankenship of Henry County confirmed the arrests and hinted at the possibility of additional charges, including murder, as the investigation is in its early stages. "We're only on day one of the investigation, so other potential charges could still be pending," Sheriff Blankenship stated. The Halsteads were located in Jack, Alabama, approximately 50 miles west of the home, several hours after the discovery. They were transported back to Henry County, where detectives interviewed them. The couple was subsequently booked into Henry County Jail. Authorities believe that Logan Halstead's body had been in the freezer since late August. Shockingly, Michael had confessed to placing his son's remains in a non-working freezer weeks before the gruesome discovery. The confession occurred on October 11, following the couple's departure from the Headland property. However, during a prior police inspection of the freezer, the body was not found. Logan, who had spina bifida and various medical issues, was described in court testimony as having been wrapped in tarps and blankets and placed inside a cardboard box. Michael claimed to have suffered a manic episode, unable to recall the circumstances leading to his son's placement in the freezer. In a bizarre twist, on the same day as Michael's alleged confession, he was arrested by Dothan Police for failing to appear in court on domestic violence charges, spending ten days in jail. The Halsteads, who had been renting the property, moved away without paying rent sometime after August 2023. The landlord subsequently sold the home to its current owners, who made the shocking discovery while cleaning their newly acquired property. Logan Halstead's body has been transported to the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences for an autopsy. They made their first court appearance on Monday afternoon, with a bond of $175,000 each.

In a shocking development, investigators have unearthed the remains of nearly 200 people from a funeral home in Penrose, Colorado. The authorities were alerted to the Return to Nature Funeral Home weeks ago, following complaints about an "abhorrent smell" that turned out to be the decaying bodies of more than a hundred individuals.    According to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, the grim discovery comprises at least 189 bodies, which have since been relocated to the El Paso County Coroner's Office for further examination. The funeral home, positioned about 100 miles south of Denver, came under scrutiny earlier this month when initial reports revealed 115 human remains improperly stored on the property.    Jon Hallford, the owner of the establishment, has been accused of attempting to hide the maltreatment of the remains. In a letter dated October 5th, officials highlighted that state regulators suspended the license of the Colorado Springs-based funeral home after these revelations. Hallford confessed to the regulators, admitting to a "problem" at the property and mentioning his practice of taxidermy there.    Describing the situation, Fremont County Sheriff Allen Cooper termed the inside of the facility, which is approximately 2,500 square feet, as "horrific". Cooper's comments underscore the severity of the discovery, especially when considering the adverse reaction of a paramedic on the scene who developed a rash and needed medical assessment.    While this investigation is ongoing, Sheriff Cooper emphasized that the focus is also on the affected families. "We want to do all we can to provide the families the support they need as we shift to the next phase in this process," Cooper stated.    The tedious task of confirming identities and informing surviving family members has begun, with DNA testing anticipated to span several months. "We are conducting extensive coordination efforts as we focus on the identification of the decedents," expressed Fremont County Coroner Randy Keller, aiming to prevent further trauma for the grieving families.    Currently, it's uncertain if the funeral home operator will face criminal charges. Sheriff Cooper has previously noted that no arrests or charges had been made and that Hallford, whose name was initially withheld, was cooperating with the investigation.    This incident brings to light Colorado's notably lax oversight laws regarding funeral homes. As reported by the Colorado Springs Gazette, Colorado stands as the only state without mandates on minimal education and training for licensing funeral homes. Even more alarming is the revelation that state regulators possibly failed to inspect or even contact Return to Nature for nearly a year after its registration expired.    Regrettably, this isn't the first instance of malpractice related to funeral homes in Colorado. Megan Hess, ex-owner of Sunset Mesa funeral home, was sentenced to two decades of imprisonment earlier this year for her involvement in stealing and selling bodies or body parts.    Jon Hallford isn't a novice in the funeral business. He established his green burial service in Colorado Springs in 2017, after gaining experience in Oklahoma at his family's funeral home. Notably, he made headlines in 2006, due to a misdemeanor gun charge related to a misguided prank.    Green burials, a method that allows natural decomposition, is legally permitted in Colorado. This eco-friendly alternative, however, demands that any body not interred within a day be adequately refrigerated, as per the state code.    Return to Nature Funeral Home previously advertised green burials for $1,895, not inclusive of a casket or burial plot. Additionally, they offered cremation services for $1,290, which were discontinued last July.    Residents living nearby recounted the odorous stench emanating from the funeral home weeks prior to the investigation. "We just assumed it was a dead animal," shared Joyce Pavetti, a 73-year-old local.    The FBI is actively seeking information from individuals who suspect the wrongful storage of their loved one's remains at this funeral home. The bureau encourages these individuals to fill out an online survey to aid their investigation. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a letter dated October 5th, officials highlighted that state regulators suspended the license of the Colorado Springs-based funeral home after these revelations. Hallford confessed to the regulators, admitting to a "problem" at the property and mentioning his practice of taxidermy there.    Describing the situation, Fremont County Sheriff Allen Cooper termed the inside of the facility, which is approximately 2,500 square feet, as "horrific". Cooper's comments underscore the severity of the discovery, especially when considering the adverse reaction of a paramedic on the scene who developed a rash and needed medical assessment.    While this investigation is ongoing, Sheriff Cooper emphasized that the focus is also on the affected families. "We want to do all we can to provide the families the support they need as we shift to the next phase in this process," Cooper stated.    The tedious task of confirming identities and informing surviving family members has begun, with DNA testing anticipated to span several months. "We are conducting extensive coordination efforts as we focus on the identification of the decedents," expressed Fremont County Coroner Randy Keller, aiming to prevent further trauma for the grieving families.    Currently, it's uncertain if the funeral home operator will face criminal charges. Sheriff Cooper has previously noted that no arrests or charges had been made and that Hallford, whose name was initially withheld, was cooperating with the investigation.    This incident brings to light Colorado's notably lax oversight laws regarding funeral homes. As reported by the Colorado Springs Gazette, Colorado stands as the only state without mandates on minimal education and training for licensing funeral homes. Even more alarming is the revelation that state regulators possibly failed to inspect or even contact Return to Nature for nearly a year after its registration expired.    Regrettably, this isn't the first instance of malpractice related to funeral homes in Colorado. Megan Hess, ex-owner of Sunset Mesa funeral home, was sentenced to two decades of imprisonment earlier this year for her involvement in stealing and selling bodies or body parts.    Jon Hallford isn't a novice in the funeral business. He established his green burial service in Colorado Springs in 2017, after gaining experience in Oklahoma at his family's funeral home. Notably, he made headlines in 2006, due to a misdemeanor gun charge related to a misguided prank.    Green burials, a method that allows natural decomposition, is legally permitted in Colorado. This eco-friendly alternative, however, demands that any body not interred within a day be adequately refrigerated, as per the state code.    Return to Nature Funeral Home previously advertised green burials for $1,895, not inclusive of a casket or burial plot. Additionally, they offered cremation services for $1,290, which were discontinued last July.    Residents living nearby recounted the odorous stench emanating from the funeral home weeks prior to the investigation. "We just assumed it was a dead animal," shared Joyce Pavetti, a 73-year-old local.    The FBI is actively seeking information from individuals who suspect the wrongful storage of their loved one's remains at this funeral home. The bureau encourages these individuals to fill out an online survey to aid their investigation. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In August of 2000, Gerry McGinley disappeared from his home near Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh. His wife Julie said he had packed up a plastic bag and had taken off. The police investigation came up with numerous leads. Had Gerry fallen foul of the Real IRA? Or maybe he'd crossed drug dealers? Was his former lover - or indeed her husband - enraged enough to make him run, or worse? It also seemed likely Gerry had been blackmailing local men with videos they'd rather not exist... Or perhaps the answer was much closer to home, and to be found in the newly re-decorated master bedroom of the McGinley's bungalow...

NOBODY IS LISTENING TO THIS MUSIC PODCAST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncFy1zRA9HM 28 DAYS LATER Written by Alex Garland CLOSE ON A MONITOR SCREEN: Images of stunning violence. Looped. Soldiers in a foreign war shoot an unarmed civilian at point- blank range; a man is set on by a frenzied crowd wielding clubs and machetes; a woman is necklaced while her killers cheer and howl. Pull back to reveal that we are seeing one of many screens in a bank of monitors, all showing similar images... Then revealing that the monitors are in a... INT. SURGICAL CHAMBER - NIGHT ...surgical chamber. And watching the screens is a... ...chimp, strapped to an operating table, with its skull dissected open, webbed in wires and monitoring devices, muzzled with a transparent guard. Alive. Behind the surgical chamber, through the wide doorframe, we can see a larger laboratory beyond. INT. BRIGHT CORRIDOR - NIGHT A group of black-clad ALF Activists, all wearing balaclavas, move down a corridor. They carry various gear - bag, bolt cutters. As they move, one Activist reaches up to a security camera and sprays it black with an aerosol paint can. INT. LABORATORY - NIGHT The Activists enter the laboratory. CHIEF ACTIVIST Fucking hell... The Chief Activist takes his camera off his shoulder and starts taking photos. The room is huge and long, and darkened except for specific pools of light. Partially illuminated are rows of cages with clear perspex doors. They run down either side of the room. In the cages are chimpanzees. 2. Most are in a state of rabid agitation, banging and clawing against the perspex, baring teeth through foam-flecked mouths. They reach the far end of the lab, where on a huge steel operating table they see the dissected chimp. FEMALE ACTIVIST Oh God... The dissected chimp's eyes flick to the Activists. Blood wells from around the exposed brain tissue. Tears starts to roll down the Female Activist's cheeks. CHIEF ACTIVIST (to Female Activist) Keep your shit together. If we're going to get them out of here... The Finnish Activist is checking the perspex cages. FINNISH ACTIVIST I can pop these, no problem. CHIEF ACTIVIST So get to it. The Finnish Activist raises his crowbar and sticks it around the edge of one of the doors - about to prise it open. At the moment, the doors to the laboratory bang open. The Activists all turn. Standing at the entrance is the Scientist. A pause. The Scientist jumps to a telephone handset on the wall and shouts into the receiver. SCIENTIST Security! We have a break-in! Get to sector... A hand slams down the disconnect button. SCIENTIST ...nine. The Chief Activist plucks the receiver from the Scientist's hands, and then rips the telephone from the wall. A beat. 3. SCIENTIST I know who you are, I know what you think you're doing, but you have to listen to me. You can't release these animals. CHIEF ACTIVIST If you don't want to get hurt, shut your mouth, and don't move a fucking muscle. SCIENTIST (BLURTS) The chimps are infected! The Activists hesitate, exchanging a glance. SCIENTIST (continuing; stumbling, FLUSTERED) These animals are highly contagious. They've been given an inhibitor. CHIEF ACTIVIST Infected with what? SCIENTIST Chemically restricted, locked down to a... a single impulse that... CHIEF ACTIVIST Infected with what? The Scientist hesitates before answering. SCIENTIST Rage. Behind the Activists, the bank of monitors show the faces of the machete-wielding crowd. SCIENTIST (desperately trying to EXPLAIN) In order to cure, you must first understand. Just imagine: to have power over all the things we feel we can't control. Anger, violence... FINNISH ACTIVIST What the fuck is he talking about? 4. CHIEF ACTIVIST We don't have time for this shit! Get the cages open! SCIENTIST No! CHIEF ACTIVIST We're going, you sick bastard, and we're taking your torture victims with us. SCIENTIST NO! You must listen! The animals are contagious! The infection is in their blood and saliva! One bite and... FEMALE ACTIVIST They won't bite me. The Female Activist crouches down to face the wild eyes of the infected chimp behind the perspex. SCIENTIST STOP! You have no idea! The Scientist makes a desperate lunge towards her, but the Chief Activist grabs him. FEMALE ACTIVIST Good boy. You don't want to bite me, do you? The Female Activist gives a final benign smile, then the Finnish Activist pops open the door. SCIENTIST NO! Like a bullet from a gun, the infected chimp leaps out at the Female Activist - and sinks its teeth into her neck. She reels back as the chimp claws and bites with extraordinary viciousness. At the same moment, a deafening alarm begins to sound. FEMALE ACTIVIST (SHRIEKING) Get it off! Get if off! The Finnish Activist rips the ape off and throws it on to the floor. The infected chimp immediately bites into the man's leg. He yells with pain, and tries to kick it off. 5. Behind him, the Female Activist has started to scream. She doubles up, clutching the side of her head. FEMALE ACTIVIST I'm burning! Jesus! Help me! SCIENTIST We have to kill her! FEMALE ACTIVIST I'm burning! I'm burning! CHIEF ACTIVIST What's... SCIENTIST We have to kill her NOW! Meanwhile, the Female Activist's cries have become an unwavering howl of pain - and she is joined by the Finnish Activist, whose hands have also flown to the side of his head, gripping his temples as if trying to keep his skull from exploding. CHIEF ACTIVIST What's wrong with them? The Scientist grabs a desk-lamp base and starts running towards the screaming Female Activist... ...who has ripped off her balaclava - revealing her face - the face of an Infected. She turns to the Scientist. SCIENTIST Oh God. She leaps at him. He screams as they go tumbling to the ground. The Chief Activist watches in immobile horror as she attacks the Scientist with amazing ferocity. INT. CORRIDOR - NIGHT Another ACTIVIST makes his way down the corridor towards the lab. ACTIVIST (HISSES) Terry? Jemma? 6. No answer. ACTIVIST Mika? Where are you? He reaches the door to the lab, which is closed - and... ...as he opens it, we realize the door is also soundproofed. A wall of screaming hits him. He stands in the doorway - stunned by the noise, and then the sight. Blood, death, and his colleagues, all Infected. ACTIVIST Bloody hell. The Infected rush him. FADE TO BLACK. TITLE: 28 DAYS LATER INT. HOSPITAL ROOM - LATE AFTERNOON Close up of Jim, a young man in his twenties, wearing pale green hospital pyjamas. He has a month's beard, is dishevelled, and asleep. We pull back to see that Jim is lying on a hospital bed, in a private room. Connected to his arms are multiple drips, a full row of four or five on each side of his bed. Most of the bags are empty. Jim's eyes open. He looks around with an expression of confusion. Then he sits up. He is weak, but he swings his legs off the bed and stands. The attached drips are pulled with him and clatter to the floor. Jim winces, and pulls the taped needles from his arm. JIM Ow... His voice is hoarse, his mouth dry. Massaging his throat, he walks to the door. 7. INT. COMA WARD - LATE AFTERNOON The door to Jim's hospital room is locked. The key is on the floor. He picks it up and opens the door. Jim exits into a corridor. At the far end, a sign read: COMA WARD. There is no sign of life or movement. Jim walks down the corridor. One of the doors is half-open. From inside, there is the sound of buzzing flies. INT. HOSPITAL WARDS - LATE AFTERNOON Jim moves as quickly as he can through the hospital, still weak, but now driven by adrenaline. All the wards and corridors are deserted. Medical notes and equipment lie strewn over the floors, trolleys are upended, glass partition doors are smashed. In a couple of places, splashes of dried blood arc up the walls. He reaches A&E. On one wall is a row of public pay phones. He lifts a receiver, and the line is dead. He goes down the line, trying them all. In the corner of the A&E reception is a smashed soft-drinks machine, with a few cans collected at the base. Jim grabs one, rips off the ring-pull and downs it in one go. Then he grabs another, and heads for the main doors. EXT. HOSPITAL - LATE AFTERNOON Jim exits and walks out into the bright daylight of the forecourt. The camera begins to pull away from him. JIM Hello? Aside from a quiet rush of wind, there is silence. No traffic, no engines, no movement. Not even birdsong. EXT. LONDON - SUNDOWN Jim walks through the empty city, from St. Thomas's Hospital, over Westminster Bridge, past the Houses of Parliament, down Whitehall, to Trafalgar Square. 8. A bright overhead sun bleaches the streets. A light drifts litter and refuse. Cars lie abandoned, shops looted. Jim is still wearing his hospital pyjamas, and carries a plastic bag full of soft-drink cans. EXT. CENTRAL LONDON ROAD/CHURCH - NIGHT Jim walks. Night has fallen. He needs to find a place to rest... He pauses. Down a narrow side street is a church. He walks towards it. The front doors are open. INT. CHURCH - NIGHT Jim walks inside, moving with the respectful quietness that people adopt when entering a church. The doors ahead to the main chamber are closed. Pushing them, gently trying the handle, it is obvious they are locked. But another open door is to his left. He goes through it. INT. CHURCH - STAIRWELL - NIGHT Jim moves up a stairwell. Written large on the wall is a single line of graffiti: REPENT. THE END IS EXTREMELY FUCKING NIGH INT. CHURCH - GALLERY LEVEL - NIGHT Jim moves into the gallery level, and sees, through the dust and rot, ornate but faded splendor. At the far end, a stained- glass window is illuminated by the moonlight. Jim pads in, stands at the gallery, facing the stained-glass window for a moment before looking down... Beneath are hundreds of dead bodies. Layered over the floor, jammed into the pews, spilling over the altar. The scene of an unimaginable massacre. Jim stands, stunned. Then sees, standing motionless at different positions facing away from him, four people. Their postures and stillness make their status unclear. Jim hesitates before speaking. 9. JIM ...Hello? Immediately, the four heads flick around. Infected. And the next moment, there is the powerful thump of a door at the far end of the gallery. Jim whirls to the source as the Infected below start to move. The door thumps again - another stunningly powerful blow, the noise echoing around the chamber. Confused, fist closing around his bag of soft drinks, Jim steps onto the gallery, facing the door... ...and it smashes open. Revealing an Infected Priest - who locks sight on Jim, and starts to sprint. JIM Father? The Priest is half way across the gallery JIM Father, what are you... And now the moonlight catches the Priest's face. Showing clearly: the eyes. The blood smeared and collected around his nose, ears, and mouth. Darkened and crusted, accumulated over days and weeks. Fresh blood glistening. JIM Jesus! In a movement of pure instinct, Jim swings the bag just as the Priest is about to reach him - and connects squarely with the man's head. JIM Oh, that, was bad, that was bad... I shouldn't have done that... He breaks into a run... INT. CHURCH - STAIRWELL - NIGHT Down the stairwell... 10. INT. CHURCH - NIGHT ...into the front entrance, where the locked door now strains under the blows of the Infected inside. JIM Shit. EXT. CHURCH - NIGHT Jim sprints down the stone steps. As he reaches the bottom the doors are broken open, and the Infected give chase. EXT. CENTRAL LONDON ROAD - NIGHT Jim runs - the Infected have almost reached him. A hand fires up a Zippo lighter, and lights the rag of a Molotov cocktail. As Jim runs, something flies past his head, and the Infected closest to him explodes in a ball of flame. Jim turns, and sees as another Molotov cocktail explodes, engulfing two in the fireball. He whirls, now completely bewildered. WOMAN'S VOICE HERE! Another Molotov cocktail explodes. The Infected stagger from the blaze, on fire. WOMAN'S VOICE OVER HERE! Jim whirls again, and sees, further down the road... ...Selena, a black woman, also in her twenties. She wears a small backpack, a machete is stuck into her belt - and she holds a lit Molotov cocktail in her hand. ...Mark, a tall, good-looking man - throwing another bottle. It smashes on the head of the last Infected, bathing it in flame... The burning Infected bumps blindly into a car. Falls. Gets up again. 11. Blindly, it staggers off the road, into a petrol station - where an abandoned car has run over on the pumps. The ground beneath it suddenly ignites, and the petrol station explodes. EXT. SIDE STREET - NIGHT Selena and Mark lead Jim into a side street. JIM (DAZED) Those people! Who were... who... MARK This way! Move it! Jim allows himself to be hurried along. EXT. SHOP - NIGHT Selena stops outside a newsagent's shop. The shop's door and windows are covered with a metal security grill, but the grill over the door lock has been prised away enough for Selena to slip her hand through to the latch. INT. SHOP - NIGHT Inside, most of the shelves have been emptied of confectionery. Newspapers and magazines litter the floor. The magazine covers of beautiful girls and sports cars have become instant anachronisms. At the back of the shop, a makeshift bed of sheets and sleeping bag is nestled. This has obviously been Selena and Mark's home for the last few days. INT. NEWSAGENT - NIGHT Jim, Mark and Selena enter the newsagent's and pull down the grill. MARK A man walks into a bar with a giraffe. They each get pissed. The giraffe falls over. The man goes to leave and the barman says, you can't leave that lying there. The man says, it's not a lion. It's a giraffe. 12. Silence. Mark pulls off his mask and turns to Selena. MARK He's completely humorless. You two will get along like a house on fire. Selena, who has already taken off her mask, ignores Mark. SELENA Who are you? You've come from a hospital. MARK Are you a doctor? SELENA He's not a doctor. He's a patient. JIM I'm a bicycle courier. I was riding a package from Farringdon to Shaftesbury Avenue. A car cut across me... and then I wake up in hospital, today... I wake up and I'm hallucinating, or... MARK What's your name? JIM Jim. MARK I'm Mark. This is Selena. (BEAT) Okay, Jim. We've got some bad news. Selena starts to tell her story, and as the story unfolds we see the images she describes. SELENA It began as rioting. And right from the beginning, you knew something bad was going on because the rioters were killing people. And then it wasn't on the TV anymore. It was in the street outside. It was coming through your windows. We all guessed it was a virus. An infection. You didn't need a doctor to tell you that. It was the blood. 13. Something in the blood. By the time they tried to evacuate the cities, it was already too late. The infection was everywhere. The army blockades were overrun. And that was when the exodus started. The day before the radio and TV stopped broadcasting there were reports of infection in Paris and New York. We didn't hear anything more after that. JIM Where are your families? MARK They're dead. SELENA Yours will be dead too. JIM No... No! I'm going to find them. They live in Greenwich. I can walk. (heading for the exit) I'm going to... to go and... SELENA You'll go and come back. JIM (pulling at the grill) Yes! I'll go and come back. MARK Rules of survival. Lesson one - you never go anywhere alone, unless you've got no choice. Lesson two - you only move during daylight, unless you've got no choice. We'll take you tomorrow. Then we'll all go and find your dead parents. Okay? EXT. TRAIN TRACKS - DAY Jim, Selena and Mark walk along the Docklands Light Railway in single file. Ahead is a train. Behind the train, as if spilled in its wake, are abandoned bags, suitcases, backpacks. Mark drops pace to let Jim catch up. 14. MARK How's your head? Fucked? No reply. MARK (gesturing at the city) I know where your head is. You're looking at these windows, these millions of windows, and you're thinking - there's no way this many people are dead. It's just too many windows. Mark picks up a handbag from the tracks. MARK The person who owned this bag. Can't be dead. Mark reaches in and starts to pull things out as they walk, discarding the personal possessions. MARK A woman - (car keys) - who drove a Nissan Micra - (teddy) - and had a little teddy bear - (condoms) - and carried protection, just in case. Marks tosses the condoms behind him. MARK (DRY) Believe me, we won't need them anymore than she will. He hands the bag to Jim and walks ahead. Jim pulls out a mobile phone. He switches it on. It reads: SEARCHING FOR NETWORK. The message blinks a couple of times. Then the screen goes blank. Jim looks left. He is now alongside the train. The inside of the windows are smeared with dried blood. Pressed against the glass is the face of a dead man. 15. Jim drops the phone and breaks into a run - running past Mark and Selena. MARK (HISSING) Hey! EXT. GREENWICH COMMON - DAY Jim, Selena and Mark jog across Greenwich Common. Jim gestures towards one of the streets on the far side of the green. JIM (LOW VOICE) Down there. Westlink Street. Second on the left. EXT. WESTLINK STREET - DAY The street is modest red-brick semi-detached houses. They stand outside Number 43. Jim waits while Selena scans the dark facade. SELENA If there's anyone in there who isn't human... JIM I understand. SELENA Anyone. JIM I understand. Selena shoots a glance at Jim. Jim is gazing at the house. MARK Okay. EXT. BACK GARDEN - DAY Jim uses the key under the flowerpot to open the back door. INT. HOUSE - DAY Jim, Selena and Mark move quietly through the kitchen and the downstairs of the house. 16. Surprisingly, everything is neat and tidy. Washed plates are stacked by the sink, newspapers on the table are neatly piled. The headline on the top paper reads simply: CONTAINMENT FAILS. They reach the bottom of the stairs. Selena gestures upwards, and Jim nods. They start to ascend. At the top of the stairs, Selena sniffs the air, and recoils. Jim has noticed it too. His eyes widen in alarm. MARK (WHISPERS) Wait. But Jim pushes past and advances along the top landing, until he reaches a door. By now the smell is so bad that he is having to cover his nose and mouth with the sleeve of one arm. Jim pushes open the door. Inside, two decomposed bodies lie side by side on the bed, intertwined. On the bedside table are an empty bottle of sleeping pills and a bottle of red wine. Mark appears behind him. Jim stares at his parents for a couple of moments, then Mark closes the door. INT. BATHROOM - DAY Jim sits on the toilet, alone. He is crying. In his hand is a piece of paper: "Jim - with endless love, we left you sleeping. Now we're sleeping with you. Don't wake up." The paper crumples in his fist. INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY Jim, Selena and Mark sit in the living room, on the two sofas. Jim looks dazed, uncomprehending. Selena watches Jim, her expression neutral. SELENA They died peacefully. You should be grateful. JIM I'm not grateful. Jim's words hang a moment. Then Mark talks, simply, unemotionally, matter-of-fact throughout. 17. MARK The roads out were all jammed. So we went to Paddington Station. Hoping: maybe we could get to Heathrow, maybe buy our way on a plane. My dad had all this cash, even though cash was already useless, and Mum had her jewellery. But twenty thousand other people had the same idea. (A MOMENT) The crowd was surging, and I lost my grip on my sister's hand. I remember realizing the ground was soft. I looked down, and I was standing on people. Like a carpet, people who had fallen, and... somewhere in the crowd there were infected. It spread fast, no one could run, all you could do was climb. Over more people. So I did that. I got up, somehow, on top of a kiosk. (A MOMENT) Looking down, you couldn't tell which faces were infected and which weren't. With the blood, the screaming, they all looked the same. And I saw my dad. Not my mum or my sister. But I saw my dad. His face. A short silence. MARK Selena's right. You should be grateful. SELENA We don't have time to get back to the shop before dark. We should stay here tonight. Jim nods. He isn't sure what he wants to say. JIM My old room was at the end of the landing. You two take it. I'll sleep down here. SELENA We'll sleep in the same room. It's safer. 18. EXT. LONDON - DAY TO NIGHT The red orb of the sun goes down; the light fades. As night falls, London vanishes into blackness, with no electric light to be seen. Then the moon appears from behind the cloud layer, and the dark city is revealed. INT. HOUSE - NIGHT Jim is on the sofa. In the moonlight, we can see that his eyes are open, wide awake. Selena is curled on the other sofa, and Mark is on the floor - both asleep. The house is silent. Jim watches Selena sleeping for a couple of moments. Then, quietly, he gets off the sofa and pads out of the living room, down the hall to the kitchen. INT. KITCHEN - NIGHT Jim enters, standing just inside the doorway. He looks around the room. On one wall, a faded kid's drawing of a car is framed. Above the counter, on a shelf of cookery books, an album has a handwritten label on the spine: "Mum's Favorite Recipes". Jim walks to the fridge. Stuck to the door is a photo of Jim with his parents, arm in arm, smiling at the camera. Jim is on his mountain bike, wearing his courier bag. FLASH CUT TO: Jim, sitting at the kitchen table as his Mum enters, carrying bags of shopping. Jim walks over to the bags and pulls out a carton of orange juice, which he pulls straight to his mouth and begins to gulp down. His Dad walks in from the garden. JIM'S DAD Give me a glass of that, would you? JIM (draining the carton, and giving it a shake) It's empty. CUT BACK TO: 19. Jim touches the photo, their faces, lightly. Jim is facing away from the back door, which has a large frosted-glass panel. Through the glass panel, unseen by Jim a dark silhouette looms against the diffused glow from the moonlight. Through the kitchen window, a second silhouette appears. Then there is a scratching noise from the back door. Jim freezes. Slowly, he turns his head, and sees the dark shapes behind the door and window. A beat - then the door is abruptly and powerfully smashed in. It flies open, and hangs loosely held by the bottom hinge. Standing in the doorframe is an Infected Man. Jim shouts with alarm as the Man lunges at him - and they both go tumbling to the floor. At the same moment, the figure behind the kitchen window smashes the glass, and an Infected Teenage Girl starts to clamber through the jagged frame. The Man gets on top of Jim, while Jim uses his arms to hold back the ferocious assault. A single strand of saliva flies from the Man's lips, and contacts Jim's cheek. JIM (SCREAMS) Help! Suddenly, Selena is there, holding her machete. The blade flashes down to the back of the Man's neck. Blood gushes. Jim rolls the Infected Man off, just in time to see... ...Mark dispatch the Girl half way through the kitchen window. The Girl is holding Mark, but her legs are caught on the broken glass. Mark jabs upwards into the Girl's torso - she stiffens, then slumps, and as Mark steps back we see he is holding a knife. Jim hyperventilates, staring at the corpse on the kitchen floor. JIM It's Mr. Bridges... Selena turns to Jim. She is hyperventilating too, but there is control and steel in her voice. 20. SELENA Were you bitten? JIM He lives four doors down... Jim turns to the Girl sprawled half way through the window. JIM That's his daughter... SELENA Were you bitten? Jim looks at her. Selena is still holding her machete at the ready. JIM No... No! I wasn't! SELENA Did any of the blood get in your mouth? JIM No! SELENA Mark? Jim turns to Mark. He is standing in the middle of the room. Stepped away from the window. The Girl's blood is on his arm - and he is wiping it away... ...off the skin... where a long scratch cut wells up fresh blood. A moment. Then Mark looks at Selena, as if slightly startled. MARK Wait. But Selena is swiping with her machete. Mark lifts his arm instinctively, defensively, and the blade sinks in. Selena immediately yanks it back. MARK DON'T! Selena swipes again - and the blade catches Mark hard in the side of the head. Mark falls. 21. Jim watches, scrabbling backwards on the floor away from them, as Selena brutally finishes Mark off. Selena looks at Mark's body for a couple of beats, then lowers the blade. She picks up a dishcloth from the sink counter and tosses it to Jim. SELENA Get that cleaned off. Jim picks up the rag and hurriedly starts to wipe the Infected's blood from around his neck. SELENA Do you have any clothes here? JIM (fazed, frightened of her) I... I don't know. I think so. SELENA Then get them. And get dressed. We have to leave, now. With practiced speed, Selena starts to open the kitchen cupboards, selecting packets of biscuits and cans from the shelves, and stuffing them into her backpack. SELENA More infected will be coming. They always do. EXT. HOUSE - NIGHT Jim and Selena exit the front door. Jim has changed out of his hospital gear into jeans and a sweatshirt. He also has a small backpack, and is carrying a baseball bat. EXT. LONDON ROAD - NIGHT Jim and Selena walk: fast, alert. But something is not being said between them... until Jim breaks the silence. JIM (QUIET) How did you know? Selena says nothing. Continues walking. JIM (INSISTENT) How did you know he was infected? 22. SELENA The blood. JIM The blood was everywhere. On me, on you, and... SELENA (CUTTING IN) I didn't know he was infected. Okay? I didn't know. He knew. I could see it in his face. (A MOMENT) You need to understand, if someone gets infected, you've got somewhere between ten and twenty seconds to kill them. They might be your brother or your sister or your oldest friend. It makes no difference Just so as you know, if it happens to you, I'll do it in a heartbeat. A moment. JIM How long had you known him? SELENA Five days. Or six. Does it matter? Jim says nothing. SELENA He was full of plans. Long-distance weapons, so they don't get close. A newsagent's with a metal grill, so you can sleep. Petrol bombs, so the blood doesn't splash. Selena looks at Jim dispassionately. SELENA Got a plan yet, Jim? You want us to find a cure and save the world? Or fall in love and fuck? Selena looks away again. SELENA Plans are pointless. Staying alive is as good as it gets. Silence. 23. They walk. Jim following a few steps behind Selena. A few moments later, Jim lifts a hand, opens his mouth, about to say something - but Selena cuts him off without even looking round. SELENA Shhh. She has seen something... A line of tower blocks some distance away, standing against the night sky. In one of them, hanging in the window of one of the highest stories, colored fairy lights are lit up, blinking gently. INT. TOWER BLOCK - NIGHT Jim and Selena walk through the smashed glass doors of the tower block. It is extremely dark inside. Selena switches on a flashlight and illuminates the entrance hall. It is a mess. The floor is covered in broken glass and dried blood. The lift doors are jammed open, and inside is a dense bundle of rags - perhaps an old corpse, but impossible to tell, because the interior of the lift has been torched. It is black with carbon, and smoke-scarring runs up the outside wall. Selena moves the flashlight to the stairwell. There is a huge tangle of shopping trolleys running up the stairs. Selena gives one of the trolleys an exploratory tug. It shifts, but holds fast, meshed in with its neighbor. Then she puts a foot into one of the grates, and lifts herself up. Shining her light over the top of the tangle, she can see a gap along the top. JIM Let's hope we don't have to get out of here in a hurry. She begins to climb through. INT. TOWER BLOCK - NIGHT Jim and Selena move steadily and quietly up the stairwell, into the building. Reaching a next landing, they check around the corner before proceeding. Through a broken window, we can see that they are already high above most London buildings, and on the wall a sign reads: LEVEL 5. 24. SELENA Need a break? JIM (completely out of breath) No. You? SELENA No. They continue a few steps. JIM I do need a break, by the way. Selena nods. They stop on the stairs. Jim slips off his backpack and sits, pulling a face as he does so... SELENA What's up? JIM Nothing. She gives him a cut-the-crap expression. JIM I've got a headache. SELENA Bad? JIM Pretty bad. SELENA Why didn't you say something before? JIM Because I didn't think you'd give a shit. A moment, where it's unclear how Selena will react to this. Then she slips off her own backpack. SELENA (going through the bag) You've got no fat on you, and all you've had to eat is sugar. So you're crashing. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot we can do about that... 25. Selena starts to produce a wide selection of pills, looted from a chemist. SELENA ...except pump you full painkillers, and give you more sugar to eat. She holds up a bottle of codeine tablets, and passes it to Jim. SELENA As for the sugar: Lilt or Tango? JIM (CHEWING CODEINE) ...Do you have Sprite? SELENA Actually, I did have a can of Sprite, but... Suddenly there is a loud scream, coming from somewhere lower down the building. Jim and Selena both make a grab for their weapons. JIM Jesus! SELENA Quiet. The scream comes again. The noise is chilling, echoing up the empty stairwell. But there is something strange about it. The noise is human, but oddly autistic. It is held for slightly too long, and stops abruptly. SELENA That's an infected. Then, the sound of metal scraping, clattering the blockade. SELENA They're in. INT. SHOPPING TROLLEY BLOCKADE - NIGHT Two Infected, a Young Asian Guy and a Young White Guy, moving with amazing speed over the blockade. 26. INT. STAIRS - NIGHT Jim and Selena sprint up the stairs. Behind them, we can hear the Infected, giving chase, howling. They pass level eight, nine, ten... Jim is exhausted. SELENA Come on! JIM (out of breath, barely able to speak) I can't. Selena continues, and Jim looks over the edge of the stairwell, to the landing below... ...where the two Infected appear, tearing around the corner. INT. STAIRWELL - NIGHT Selena sprints up the stairs... and Jim sprints past her, in an amazing burst of energy and speed. They round another bend in the stairwell... ...then both Jim and Selena scream. Standing directly in front of them is a Man In Riot Cop Gear - helmet with full visor, gloves, a riot shield in one hand, and a length of lead pipe in the other. The Man lunges past both of them, barging past, where the Infected White Man has appeared at the stairwell. The Riot Gear Man swings his lead pipe and connects viciously with the White Man's head. The White Man falls backwards against the Asian Man. Both fall back down the stairs. The Riot Gear Man turns back to Jim and Selena. MAN Down the corridor! Flat 157! Jim and Selena are stunned, but start to run down the corridor. The Asian Man is coming back up the stairs. Jim looks back over his shoulder in time to see the Riot Gear Man deliver a massive blow to the Asian Man's head. 27. INT. CORRIDOR - NIGHT Jim and Selena run towards Flat 157. The door is open, but as they approach, it suddenly slams shut. JIM AND SELENA (hammering on the door) Let us in! GIRL (O.S.) Who is it? SELENA Let us in! The door opens a fraction, on the chain. The face of a girl appears. She is fourteen, pale, solemn-faced. GIRL Where's Dad? Jim looks back down the corridor. At the far end, the Man appears. He is holding the limp body of one of the Infected - and he tips it over the balcony, where it drops down the middle of the stairwell. MAN (CALLS BACK) It's okay, Hannah. Let them inside. The door closes, we hear the chain being slipped off, then it opens again. INT. FLAT - NIGHT Jim and Selena enter past the pale-faced girl. The flat is council, three-bed, sixteenth floor of the block. It has patterned wallpaper, and nice but boring furnishings. It is lit by candles. The entrance hall leads straight to the living room, which has French windows and a small balcony outside. On one wall, a framed photograph hangs, which shows the Man standing beside a black taxi cab. Next to him is a middle aged woman - presumably the Man's wife. Hannah sits at the cab's steering wheel, beaming. Another photo, beside, show Hannah sat in the seat of a go- kart. The Man follows Jim and Selena inside. 28. MAN Come in, come in. They follow the Man through to the living room, and Hannah recloses the front door, which has an impressive arrangement of locks and dead-bolts. INT. FLAT - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT In the living room, the fairy lights hang in the window, powered by a car battery. Lit by their glow, the Man goes through a careful ritual of shedding his gear, helped by Hannah. First, he lays down the riot shield. Then he puts the bloodsmeared lead pipe on a small white towel. Next, he removes his gloves - and places them beside the bar on the towel. Then he folds the towel over the weapon and gloves, and puts it beside the riot shield. Finally he removes the visored helmet. Jim and Selena watch him. They look pretty rattled, not really knowing what to expect. After the Man has finished shedding his gear, he turns. MAN So... I'm Frank, anyway. He extends his hand to Jim and Selena. Jim hesitates very briefly, then shakes it. JIM I'm Jim. SELENA Selena. Frank beams, and suddenly he seems much less frightening and imposing. If anything, he is just as nervous as Jim and Selena. FRANK Jim and Selena. Good to meet you. And this is my daughter, Hannah. (turning to Hannah) ...Come on, sweetheart. Say hello. Hannah takes a step into the room, but says nothing. FRANK So... so this is great. Just great. It calls for a celebration. 29. I'd say. Why don't you all sit down, and... Hannah, what have we got to offer? HANNAH (QUIETLY) We've got Mum's creme de menthe. An awkward beat. FRANK Yes, her creme de menthe. Great. Look, sit, please. Get comfortable. Sit tight while I get it. Frank exits. Selena, Jim and Hannah all stand, until Selena gestures at the sofa. SELENA Shall we? Jim and Selena take the sofa. Hannah stays standing. FRANK (O.S.) Where are the bloody glasses? HANNAH Middle cupboard. FRANK (O.S.) No! The good ones! This is a celebration! HANNAH Top cupboard. Another short, uncomfortable pause. Hannah looks at Jim and Selena from her position near the doorway. Her expression is blank and unreadable. JIM This is your place, then. Hannah nods. JIM It's nice. Hannah nods again. Frank re-enters. Frank is beaming, holding the creme de menthe, and four wine glasses. 30. FRANK There! I know it isn't much but... well, cheers! EXT. TOWER BLOCK - NIGHT The moon shines above the tower block. INT. FLAT - NIGHT Jim, Selena and Hannah all sit in the living room, sipping creme de menthe. Frank is disconnecting the fairy lights as he talks, and pulling the curtains closed, rather systematically checking for cracks along the edges. FRANK Normally we keep the windows covered at night, because the light attracts them. But when we saw your petrol station fire, we knew it had to be survivors... So we hooked up the Christmas tree lights. Like a beacon. Finished with the sofa, he sits on the armchair. SELENA We're grateful. FRANK Well, we're grateful you came. I was starting to really worry. Like I say, we haven't seen any sign of anyone normal for a while now. JIM There aren't any others in the building? Frank shakes his head. SELENA And you haven't seen any people outside? Frank's eyes flick to Hannah. FRANK We haven't left the block for more than two weeks. Stayed right here. Only sensible thing to do. Everyone who went out... 31. SELENA Didn't come back. FRANK And there's two hundred flats here. Most of them have a few cans of food, or cereal, or something. SELENA It's a good set-up. FRANK It isn't bad. He puts a hand on Hannah's shoulder, and gives it a squeeze. FRANK We've got by, haven't we? INT. BATHROOM - NIGHT

"What inclines even me to believe in Christ's resurrection? It is though I play with the thought of it – If he did not rise from the dead, then he decomposed in the grave like any other man. He Is Dead and Decomposed. In that case he is a teacher like any other and can no longer HELP; and once more we are orphaned and alone. So we have to content ourselves with wisdom and speculation. But if I am to be REALLY saved – what I need is…faith. And faith is faith in what is really needed by my heart, my soul, and not my speculative intelligence. For it is my soul with its passions, as it were with its flesh and blood, that has to be saved, and not my abstract mind. Perhaps we can say: Only LOVE can believe the Resurrection." -Ludwig Wittgenstein

Today on Boston Public Radio: We begin the show by asking listeners whether they're excited – or furious – over the return to the office. Shirley Leung talks about the life and legacy of former Fidelity Investments CEO Edward “Ned” Johnson III, and the North End restaurateurs fighting against $7,500 participation fees for outdoor dining. Leung is a business columnist for the Boston Globe.

Crossley hosts GBH's Under the Radar and Basic Black. Tiffani Faison and Irene Li join us to talk about the James Beard Awards, and how their businesses have fared over the course of the pandemic. Faison is an award-winning chef and the woman behind Sweet Cheeks, Orfano, Fool's Errand, and the recently-opened Tenderoni's, Dive Bar, and Bubble Bath at High Street Place. She's also a judge on Food Network's “Chopped,” and a competitor on “Tournament of Champions.” Li is the woman behind Mei Mei Dumplings, and just won the James Beard Award for Leadership. Jennifer Nawada and Mark McCullough answer listeners' questions and calls on all things related to landscaping and masonry. Nawada and McCollough are the landscaping and masonry experts, respectively, for PBS' longstanding home repair show “This Old House” and its spinoff, “Ask this Old House.” Jennifer also owns Nawada Landscape Design, and Mark owns MJM Masonry, both based out of Boston.
