Season 3 (or maybe 4?) begins as we reach episode 201 and start a classic remake double bill. This week, it's the 1951 original The Day The Earth Stood Still. Listen as we discuss what olden days people thought about UFOs, how most tropes are older than we think, and the ethics around Alex moving into Sam's caravan park whilst owning a gun.
Next week, we see how Keanu Reeves gets on as Klaatu 2 in the 2008 remake!
