He offers to walk with her from the formation of the Earth to the present, to see if they can find anything out that will change things. They take one great step back and then start walking forwards, from the clumping together of the material of the Earth, through the long ages of the evolution of bacteria. As they go, the Scientist explains to the Fool the scientific meaning of the wonders he is seeing. Best Mobile App award, Script nominated for Ted Hughes Award. | N/A | |
