Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I never thought the sight of somebody applying suncream could be quite so... disturbing.

ita, what was your reading of Nathan's seeing dead people? Wikipedia suggests that it too was a side-effect of the pill, but I took it as being part and parcel of his power. He still saw Jamie way after the effects has worn off for everyone else.

I think it made more sense as part of his power than as a pill thing. It seened pretty clear everyone was down by the time he visited his father. I guess he only saw Jamie because of some sort of proximity-to the death, familial, or both.
What has the guy playing their father been in, again?

Ah, Dexter Fletcher. I first remember him as Baby Face in "Bugsy Malone", but that's a wee while ago now. Also Press Gang, Hotel Babylon, Band of Brothers, and Lock, Stock....
I was amused to find, when watching HP7a yesterday evening, that Nathan's mum is also Hermione's. Talk about moving up in the world.

Hotel Babylon! That's what I'm remembering him from.

Misfits!!
I had very nearly given up on this one, but this last episode reeled me in hard.
Simon. No kidding. Could not have seen that one coming in a million years.
I have to confess that Nathan was my favorite character in the first few episodes of Season 1, but now, I'm okay with seeing far less of him. Last weeks lotion-motion nearly put me off my feed.
The new twist, however, will have me on the edge of my seat for the rest of the series.

Completely seconded, bonny. I rarely have the urge to rewatch an episode of anything as soon as it is finished but I did this time. I laughed a lot too.
I wonder if Future!HiroSimon has an agenda. I mean, other than getting into Alisha's pants.
It's all become very, very interesting.

I've been thinking the same. Like maybe it isn't really, truly Simon. But I hope that isn't it.
Rewatch? Four times so far for me!

My current theory:
Aliesha dies as a result of something one of the 5 do in the future, or fame turns the 5 into ego monsters and she dies by someone else's . As a result, Simon has to come back to manipulate events...thus the clocks...to keep her alive . He as much as says so," I came back for you ".
I'm wondering who Simon's first time is with, if not her. He looked so sad when he said it was someone else .
