Sinead Lynch/Sorika Reilly

This episode is a deep dive into one of Sinead's favourite childhood films, horror classic The Omen. Is Damien truly the literal spawn of Satan, or is he a relatively normal kid who just happens to have terrible adoptive parents? Is there a doomsday cult manipulating circumstances around this poor child because they took an ancient arcane text far too seriously? Just how hairy does a child have to be for you to miss a great big 666 birthmark on their scalp, and why does it look like it was drawn there in biro?
