Tharg mentioned that the Space Girls were returning.
How can this be? Why would he do this to us?

SACCHARINE ANECDOTE: I take my wee boy walking with me in the hills of a weekend, and in one of the forests we go to there's a rather fine megalithic tomb hidden in the trees (Kilmashogue Wedge Tomb, for the locals here). It bears a striking resemblance to cuddly stone-polisher Makka Pakka's underground house in ITNG, so we'd often stop there for a snack and a climb and we'd make believe that that's where we were. Now he's nearly four, and I've dragged him to numerous sites and monuments, on our most recent visit I decided to talk to him about what it really was. "You know this isn't really Makka Pakka's house?", I said. "It's actually a tomb built by the first people in Ireland who used metal axes and daggers, four thousand years ago. When people died back then, their friends would put them in this stone tomb, along with weapons and clay pots and jewellery, to show how important they were and so they'd be remembered for years and years".
He thought about this for a moment, furrowed brow and all, and then asked: "Is Makka Pakka dead?".
