The classic version of 365 is on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard". This is good advice that works. 150 0

![[scene is SATURDAY KITCHEN, with the normal set of Saturday Kitchen, except it’s in a cave, and the guest chef is a kind of semi-human creature called MORLOCK, and the host is H G Wells]
1
H G WELLS:
Hello I’m HG Wells and welcome to Saturday Kitchen.
So with me today is Morlock!
MORLOCK
Helloo
H G WELLS:
Now tell me a bit about yourself, Morlock
MORLOCK:
Well I’m an future sub-branch of humanity that lives underground in the year 802,701.
HG WELLS:
Wonderful!
[Close up on what Morlock is cooking - a pale, veal-like steak in the frying pan]
MORLOCK:
And today I'm cooking Eloi, which is the my rival species of human, from above the ground.
[Wells makes a frozen face of realisation]
MORLOCK
Eloi are beautifully soft and easy to hunt
Because they’ve gone weak with over-reliance on technology!
HG WELLS:
Oh god. Did - did you -
MORLOCK:
It’s super local meat too - I bagged this one last night, just outside my lair.
[Cut to a scene above ground at night - Morlock emerges from his hole in the ground]
[He approaches an Eloi - a pale, weak-looking human - sat at a desk with a computer on it]
ELOI [talking to his computer]:
Hey Chat -
Write me an email to Jess in accounts about -
12
[Morlock grabs the Eloi]

[Cut back to HG Wells and Morlock at the Saturday Kitchen tasting table, tucking into the Eloi meat]
HG WELLS:
It’s kind of like veal!
