So true how many times did we turn it on at home and say straight away he's dead because he was the newbie.

Has for real aliens being amongst us I would have to argue that if they were how come we have not even invented a spacecraft that can take humans to other worlds. I reckon if we ever did come upon aliens we would be proven the backward race and they would be the masters for obvious reasons.
Oh and please don't say what about man visiting the moon all those years ago. I think we all know by now it was a hoax .Otherwise how come we still have not advanced since then with humans being put on other worlds.

Yes but only in America.
I am surprised they didn't all get their guns out and start shooting at low flying aircraft..

Excellent, Rehab! Might I add the dim or nasty one who, like the fatted calf, is accidentally or intentionally knocked off, and whose death momentarily aligns both aliens and natives in relief or celebration.

Aliens among us? They can't do any worse to the planet than we have.

Hi

Nope, I would not.

I have met Diane Abbott.

If you can cope with that, Aliens are no problem.
