Alien Nation a sure hit with sci-fi fans

Sci-fi fans will be rushing out to buy Alien Nation (Fox, €59.49), a six-disc set bringing together the original TV movie and the complete 21 episodes of the series in which the Tenctonese, an alien slave race, attempt to co-exist with humans when their space ship crashes on earth.

Tenctonese police officer George Francisco and earthling Matt Sikes combine to fight crime involving both life-forms in a fascinating series which deserved a longer lease of life.
