We Come in Peace! Series Trailer

Some of them came to warn us. Some of them just wanted to go home.

We Come in Peace is a new series from Journey Through Sci-Fi, tracing the friendly alien across a century of film and television. We start in the earliest days of visitors from other worlds and work our way to the present, asking how and why that image kept changing.

Along the way: The Day the Earth Stood Still, It Came from Outer Space, Warning from Space, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., Starman, Cocoon, Alien Nation, Coneheads, Men in Black, The Iron Giant, Arrival and plenty more.

Episode one arrives (in peace) on 10 September, with new episodes every other week.

Journey Through Sci-Fi is part of the EOH network. Hosted by James Payne and Matt Willcock.
