Recorded it and watching now. The Kerr testimony about the definite Radar contact is interesting. David Clarke talking about the witnesses becoming "Part of the UFO industry", without a hint of irony made me laugh. Yes Dave, cos you're not part of it at all are you? Nick Pope seems to be morphing into Bamber Gascoigne.

I was going to say "as long as this doesn't feature Rendlesham I'll give it a watch", but alas, the most cliched UK ufo documentary subject is afoot. Yes, it's a very interesting case, but Christ, it's covered in so many documentaries I find it extremely boring now every time it gets covered again.

Second episode was more interesting. The Jose Francisco Rodrigues case with his Dormier and the contemporaneous loss of power at the HEP station is most fascinating given the case in Uruguay Karl12 recently posted about.

Just watching the first episode. If you missed it you can catch it at 9pm (on Nat Geo +1)
Repeats across the week on the above link.
Just seen a rather tame telling of the Rendlesham case. Although Nick Pope has gone a little hairier in his old age.
Anyway a heads up for anyone interested in the UK and Ireland.
Followed by Chasing UFOs which got panned by most people in the States.

Just watched the episode featuring the crash of William Shaffner's Lightning. Sadly totally and utterly inaccurate and actually quite insulting to the intelligence. The story did not come to light in 1992. I had been known for several years prior to that and was first published in July 1988 as part of Arrrgh! Bruce Barrymore Halpenny's second book, The whole "fake tape" was concocted years later and tonight's episode didn't even mention that it was an audio tape not just a written document.
The MOD admitted, although this was only reported in one newspaper, that, the fake tape, "Must have been made in house". Even having admitted the tape must have been faked by military personnel they then did absolutely nothing to ascertain quite who had done it.
The fact is, Halpenny was far far better connected than either Nick Pope or David Clark and he actually spoke directly to some of those involved in the incident. Halpenny's account has been, in effect, deliberately side lined and ignored as it shoots the MOD's official explanation to pieces. That doesn't make it an alien ship, if simply means they are lying about the details of what actually happened.
