Sound in Space battles Space Invaders again this week in the show’s first ever sequel as sequels always turn out better than the original…right? 

Under the microscope this week are  .. 

District 9 - Neil Blonkamp’s allegorical alien tale showed us a world where twenty years after arriving on earth visitors from another planet live in slum like conditions are about to be moved into direct provision. But do our trio think this is what would happen if aliens arrived tomorrow? Plus could a fuel actually change someone’s DNA? 

and 

 

 Mars Attacks! - In 1996 Tim Burton took on Independence Day in a battle of the invasions with one but two Jack Nicholson but how accurate is this zany Pierce Brosnan as a dog tale? Plus could alien invaders really be beaten by a number one hit? 

 

 Plus a reaction to the recent declassified files and the tricky fact of calling up an alien for a chat.
