Here's the opening number
Barnaby May
was born today.
A genetic defect means he's growing at a phenomenal rate.
He’ll be out of nappies within the hour.
He'll be hitting puberty come lunch.
By the time the evening news begins,
he’ll be more grey-haired than the anchorman - and twice as arthritic.
And by midnight, he'll have died of old age.
With no known cure, doctors want to use Barnaby for vital research.
But his mother is defiant:
“If my son’s got only a day to live, he’s not spending it
in some Dettol-drenched laboratory!”
She vows to give Barnaby the fullest life possible
in the time he's been given.
On a rainy Sunday.
In the centre of the universe.
