Of course, quite so, 'bon anniversaire' and the like.

Perhaps the beeb just translated lazily, heaven forbid they'd do such a thing.

Tis a pretty planet though.

Yeah, I'm planning a tour if I win the gazillions on the Euro lottery. You're all invited if you have a spare few years 8-)

It's tricky making a hyperdrive when all you have to work with is an old washing machine and some sound effects.
