…so superbly done…if this film doesn't win an award, I am afraid there is no justice.
EVENING NEWS

Congratulations on the best piece of creative television I have ever seen.
TONY FISH presenter - BBC RADIO LONDON

…this is the most exciting television idea of the year. An ingenious piece of work, one of the best sci-fi offerings since 'Quartermass'
DAILY MAIL

….a brilliant spoof…Ambrose and Miles have achieved the rare feat of giving television drama an extra dimension with 'Alternative 3'.
DAILY EXPRESS

…..thoroughly convincing piece of work, certainly the most polished and satisfying production that has come my way from Anglia.
DAILY TELEGRAPH

David Ambrose and Christopher Miles who wrote and directed this deft and engaging hoax are very fine con-artists indeed. The essence of a great hoax is that it should offer plausible answers to hitherto unanswerable questions, and 'Alternative 3' fulfilled that perfectly.
THE TIMES

…an ingenious, and nicely po-faced, never boringly deceitful exercise.
SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

Little Anglia came up with the most dramatic 'survival' story of all….but there was one thing which disturbed me, an alternative is one of two possibilities, so I don't think there is such a thing as a third alternative.
THE GUARDIAN

…full marks to Anglia for an elaborate and brilliantly conceived hoax, the best since Richard Dimbleby's spaghetti harvest spoof of the Sixties… …stimulating and plausible way to make us think about the world's problems today……the message was in the madness.
