          2 EXT. DAY. STONEFIELD - THE GROUNDS. 2



Andy Cobb, early thirties, is digging an English garden in

the hot sun. He is lean, naked to the waist. It's hard to

tell which century he inhabits. Only when he stops to drink

from a plastic bottle do we realise he is of our time.
           TESS (V.O.)

           And love slipped the bonds of

restraint...

At a table under a willow tree sits Tess - early fifties,

funky specs - at a laptop. She pauses in her typing, staring

at Andy.
           TESS (V.O.)(CONT'D)

           His touch was like a cosmic `yes'.

Underneath a converted barn, cross-legged on a bench in a

bikini top, sits Eustacia. She is hunched over a note pad,

writing at tremendous speed, oblivious to all but her work.
           EUSTACIA (V.O.)
