The Alien Autopsy Scandal (Sky Documentaries, 9pm) – 12th June

n 1995, 18 minutes of grainy film shocked the world and sparked one of the most compelling mysteries of our time.

The footage became an international sensation, captivating film experts, military analysts, and even the Secret Service. But the question remained: was it genuine, or an elaborate hoax? The truth is far from straight forward. From director John Dower (My Scientology Movie and the BAFTA award winning Lockerbie), this stranger-than-fiction documentary series follows members of an ambitious group of filmmakers who found themselves at the centre of an unprecedented media storm after re-creating a landmark alien encounter in a North London apartment, with some still insisting it was based on a genuine film recorded by the US military.
