Doomsday is a story based in Great Britain, 2007. A deadly plague, known as the "Reaper Virus", has broken out, killing hundreds of thousands in its wake. In desperation, the British Government evacuates as many survivors as it can out of the infected area, and then builds a wall, preventing the remainder from escaping. Thirty years later, with the wall still up and the victims all but forgotten, the virus breaks out again. The Government decides to send a crack team of operatives, led by Major Eden Sinclair, into the hot zone to investigate the possibility of a cure.

Asterix and the Vikings is an animated movie about the chief of the Vikings Timandahaf who misunderstands the explanation of his advisor Cryptograf that "fear gives wings to the dwellers" and believes that fear actually makes the villagers fly and decides to chase the champion of fear in Gaul to learn how to fly and make the villagers invincible warriors. In the end Asterix realizes that it is not fear that gives wings, it is love.

The only problem is that they are now quite bored so they jump at the chance to deliver a precious gem which the UK government is returning to China. Evie's brother Jonathan is now running a nightclub in Shanghai and they are surprised to also find their son Alex who is supposed to be at university but has on an archaeological dig with an old friend, Professor Roger Wilson.
