Previous Episode

Prometheus

This week - excitement at the return of Ridley Scott as our Alien adventure takes us up to 2012’s origin story, Prometheus. Can it live up to Scott’s spectacular original? Or is it actually quite a lot like Alien Vs Predator? To paraphrase Lawrence of Arabia, "Certainly it's bad... the trick is not minding that it's bad".
