From the BBC comes another superb remake of a classic 'Lost' BBC SF series, A For Andromeda.

The remote monitoring station at Bouldershaw Fell is designed for covert surveillance and counterterrorism – the close-knit group of scientists who work there are shocked to instead receive a mysterious signal from the heart of the Andromeda galaxy. Working with mathematician Christine Jones (Kelly Reilly), Dr John Fleming (Tom Hardy) interprets the signal as the instructions to build a super-computer. Astrobiologist Professor Dawnay (Jane Asher) seizes upon the alien machine as an opportunity to create a benevolent new life form, while the Ministry of Defence and American Intelligence eye the project for more sinister purposes. The child of the computer is created in the image of Christine. John must come to terms with his feelings for the enigmatic ‘Andromeda’, while combating the threat she poses to mankind…

Based on the original scripts by Sir Fred Hoyle and John Elliot, Directed by John Strickland
