The Companion for Sci-Fi

The Companion brings you exclusive deep-dives, long reads and untold stories from creators, experts and journalists. Part magazine, part 'making of' companion, part DVD extras. We also include podcasts and documentaries, all packaged in a premium app experience.

The Companion offers members the chance to go further into their favourite TV shows and films. No click-bait. No ads. Instead, you can dive into long-reads, podcasts and video documentaries created by a team that shares your passion for these landmark game-changers and cult classics.

Sci-fi is more popular than ever and its fans deserve a premium quality home for behind the scenes tales, expert analysis and never before seen material. Our contributors are showrunners, authors, scientists and an incredible line-up of journalists, all given the chance to tell the story they’ve been dying to tell. With genuine passion combined by expert writing and contributions from the people who were there, The Companion isn’t here to supplement the experience, we’re here to enhance the experience.

There are comprehensive production histories, interviews with cast and crew, and new perspectives, but The Companion is more than a home for writers looking back, it’s about keeping these stories alive.
