UFO TV Series
So, as we're entering a new year, I've been watching this again from the 70's on the Forces TV channel, & it always amuses me how the writers envisioned life in the future. Everyone wearing silver suits, flower power hairstyles, phones with cables attached, not a mobile or laptop in sight.
Using pens to write with, computers still with spools & flashing large buttons. If only they knew:D:D Really it's because of the lovely Gabrielle Drake :drool4::drool4::drool4: |
Never missed an episode Ronnie, fantastic series.

Was on Sunday lunchtimes when I watched it. Had a Dinky S.H.A.D.O.W. 2 :heart: |

Great fun.
Loved the re-runs on Forces TV. Not sure the PC brigade appreciate the clothing styles - but I do :icon_lol:. Weren't they done by Sylvia Anderson :icon_question: Forgotten about Space 1999 - Wonder if that'll be coming on soon? Andy. |
Gabrielle (in shiney suite and purple hair) is the wallpaper on my phone. So it should be for you too.

Here you go, and the UFO headquarters building that the car pulls up to is actually Neptune House in Elstree, once the ATV studios reception, now owned by the BBC and the same building that doubled for Grange Hill school and Holby City Hospital :cool:
