Humans started predicting the end of the world around 5,000 years ago, but while prophets have warned of impending doom, today scientists are anxious about the possibility of global Armageddon, and it's a subject that fascinates many - frequently tackled in blockbuster films.

From Bruce Willis nuking an asteroid to John Cusack outrunning a super-eruption, End of the World Night explores Hollywood's most spectacular doomsday scenes, reveals the facts behind the science fiction, and counts down 10 of the most likely outcomes.
