Before telling the invading "big lamp" known as The Network to eff off during Edgar Wright's final Cornetto Trilogy flick known as The World's End, said alien entity lets Gary King know that they've helped connect the planet through technology over the last 23 years - confirming they'd been on Earth for over two decades.

But that was actually already secretly revealed very early on in the picture, during the beer-soaked opening scene.

That sequence, which focuses on King and his pals attempting to complete the Golden Mile - a 12-pub crawl in the town of Newton Haven - as youngsters, ends with Gary sat on a hill watching the sunrise after a hell of a night out. And it's during that moment you can actually spot a quite insane visual detail if you're looking closely enough.

Basil mentions later in the movie that, when a shooting star shot across the sky on the night of the gang's original pub crawl, that was actually The Network arriving on their planet.

Keep an eye on the top left part of the sky as Gary sits on the hill here and you'll absolutely see that very same shooting star crashing down to the Earth for a second or two back in 1990 - 23 years before Gary meets The Network.

Basil called it!
