Fifty Years of Shit Robots

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 OG. The mother of the franchise, the 1979 movie, ALIEN. The robot in question is ASH, played by Ian Holm, who can't be any worse than David, can he? Can he? Or can he?

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