I remember watching on TV seeing something big and grey landing at an airport near you on the return leg to the U.K.
The aircraft touched down and as it slowed down a pair of legs appeared from the belly of it and then some body parts at which point the feed made contact with the ground and started pedaling and when the grey thing finally slowed right down the rest of the body appeared and did an "exit stage left" and from memory jumped onto a motor bike and was gone. I remember thinking, I hope they've got their timing sorted out.........
