Across the pond (and then some), and down under.

I have nothing but love and respect for you, Delta darling, but don't you know that cell phones exist?

Not to make a clearly sentimental storyline (of former Westlife member Brian McFadden and Aussie songstress Delta Goodrem's duet video Almost Here) trivial, but the video treatment needed to have been brought into the twenty-first century.

McFadden enters an airport (or is a train station? I'm not familiar with UK transport), seemingly prepping to pick up his former love, played by Goodrem. They look, but cannot find each other. Like every sappy and cliched love story goes, McFadden passes her without realizing it. By the time he sees her, she is too far ahead and she climbs into a taxi and drives away. Poor, poor beautiful people.

The only excuse I can think of is bad reception.
