What would you do if you woke up one morning and instead of blue skies there is a dark red mist which is just everywhere?
Add to that blaring alarms of a nearby apartment block. Through the speaker the robotic pre-taped voice of a man shouting “Evacuate. Please proceed as directed to the nearest evacuation location. Evacuate…”

Unfortunately it only lasted a couple of hours though…

Saw it on BBC. It’s like Total Recall! Though I’m with Ilse, would have had the same reaction. Drama queen seeks drama queen?
