Meteorite crashes in Peru, people nearby get sick. Familiar, isn’t it? It’s odd, as only last night I had a dream about an alien invasion, although that one was spearheaded by Simon Pegg and Alun Armstrong, not space rocks.

I was thinking The Color Out of Time but you’re right, Andromeda Strain is closer. Of course there’s no evidence at time of writing that it was a meteorite and not a swamp gas explosion – that accounts neatly for all the reported facts: "bright light, bad smell, people get sick". Mass hysteria only really accounts for "people get sick and all report a lot of other gobbledegook". So far my money’s on swamp gas, though I reserve the right to change my opinion when more facts emerge, or just at whim.
You’re probably right, the BBC are currently reporting someone at the Natural History Museum as saying it’s probably marsh gas.
Don’t be silly. They only thing they’re talking about at the Natural History Museum is shoes and handbags. Has London Fashion Week completely passed you by daaahling?
