The Rendlesham Forest UFO Case
There
was extensive media coverage of the 25th anniversary of the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, which occurred over the Christmas
period in 1980. This is the most compelling UFO encounter ever to have taken place in Britain and has generated a massive
amount of interest not just from UFO researchers but from the media and the public. There are several books on the incident,
the best known of which is You Can't Tell The People, authored by Hot Gossip Editor in Chief Georgina Bruni. The 25th anniversary
media coverage included a two page article that I was commissioned to write for the Daily Express, a major feature in The
Sun, national radio features on BBC Radio Five Live and Talk Sport, and a whole host of other regional newspaper and radio
coverage. I also did an outside broadcast live from the forest for the new Channel 4 breakfast show, Morning Glory.
Left At East Gate
The other well known book on the Rendlesham
Forest UFO incident is Left at East Gate, co-authored by Larry Warren and Peter Robbins. This book has recently been updated
and republished by Cosimo-on-Demand. Order through Amazon or all the other usual sites for books, making sure that you get
hold of the new, updated version. Peter Robbins spent much of December in the UK and gave a number of lectures about the Rendlesham
Forest incident to UFO groups around the country, and spent the 25th anniversary itself in the forest with Larry Warren and
die-hard UFO enthusiasts who braved sub-zero temperatures to mark the event.
Kittie
Klaw
I recently met up with one of the most extraordinary paranormal investigators
in the UK, the multi-talented Kittie Klaw. As well as being an expert on all matters paranormal and psychic, Kittie is involved
in a wide range of dancing, acting and modelling. One of her ventures is the Ministry of Burlesque, currently launching Battle
of Burlesque - a sort of Search for a Star for the world of glamorous cabaret performers. Check out www.ministryofburlesque.com for the details of this series of events and check out www.kittieklaw.com for more
information about this extraordinarily talented performer. Kittie and I decided that a little collaboration would be in order,
on various projects, so watch this space. Ministry of Defence meets Ministry of Burlesque. Interesting.
Britain's Roswell
OK,
this is yet another story about the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, but I make no apologies, because this has been a massive
story here in the UK over recent weeks. There are numerous documentaries on the subject, including the Sci-Fi Channel show
UFO Invasion at Rendlesham. Now The History Channel have a new show on the incident, featuring Charles Halt, James Penniston,
John Burroughs, Georgina Bruni, Peter Robbins, Larry Warren and myself, among others. The documentary was shown first last
month, but has been repeated several times. Check your TV schedules for details.
Dana
Centre
The Dana Centre at the Science Museum are holding another event that
will cover UFOs and aliens. Taking place from 6pm through to 11pm on Friday 17 February, the event is free, but booking is
essential. The Dana Centre is all about making science fun and making people think about contemporary scientific issues. This
is the third of these Science Museum events in which I have participated and I welcome the fact that they are prepared increasingly
to look at featuring discussions, debates and events on alien life, UFOs and abductions. It is a welcome sign that such subjects
are becoming more mainstream. At the last such event, the TV cameras turned up and I appeared live on London Tonight, so watch
this space. Check out www.danacentre.org.uk for details out the event and www.danacentre.org.uk for details of the Dana Centre
and some of their other events.
The World's Strangest UFO Stories
A new series looking at UFOs has started on the Discovery Channel here in the UK. The World's
Strangest UFO Stories started on 15 January and will run for several weeks on Sunday evenings, at 10pm, examining various
weird and wonderful UFO incidents. Stories featured include the incredible claims of jazz singer Pamela Stonebrook, who says
