Maddie is summoned to a dark and dingy warehouse by Professor Lance Graumann to see an alien skeleton that has come into his possession.

The US military turn up and steal the skeleton from him, but by the time they transport it back to their base it has disappeared into thin air.

Jonathan’s reputation as a mystery-solving genius leads to him being forced to help the army figure out what the hell has gone on.

The Omega Man was the third episode of series three of Jonathan Creek, airing on 11th December 1999.
