Happy Christmas from Fifty Years of Shit Robots. This year, we're joining film-maker and friend of the show, Lesley-Ann Rose, on her traditional festive Alien franchise rewatch. We're going to watch them all in chronological order because what could be more Christmassy? Today we've watched David Fincher's Alien 3. The robot is BISHOP, well his head and arm, and he wants to be turned off forever. I know how he feels.

WARNING! The S**t-bomb is used but nothing more.

We're going to watch them all in chronological order because what could be more Christmassy? Today we've arrived at James Cameron's 1986 sequel, ALIENS. The robot is BISHOP, who is pretty handy with a knife.

Happy Christmas from Fifty Years of Shit Robots. This year, we're joining film-maker and friend of the show, Leslie-Ann Rose, on her traditional festive Alien franchise rewatch. We're going to watch them all in chronological order because what could be more Christmassy? Today we've arrived at the latest movie, ROMULUS, even though it's not the chronologically most recent. Confused? You will be. The robot in question is ANDY the android. Get it?

WARNING! The S**t-bomb is used but nothing more although the subject of male rape does come up.
