    Season 1 trailer I have just finished watching this fantastic French TV show. Set in 1978, rocket scientist Didier Mathure is banished to head GEPAN after the failure and explosion on launch of his 10 year rocket project. While this is a comedy, the storyline is actually quite enthralling...

    Object passing ISS at high speed

    High All, The ISS was passing over my home time soon after sunset tonight (Sunday 3rd July 2016). I went outside to observe it as it rose in the North-West and proceeded to rise in the clear sky. Just before it was right above me, I noticed a second fainter point of light travelling parallel to...

    Can't Remember The Name Of A Film...

    I have a memory of a rather strange horror film, possibly made in the 70's or early 80's. As far as I can recall it is set in a village in Britain that is rather isolated having been bypassed by a new motorway, essentially no one visits this place anymore. The villain is a faded 60's rock star...

    Favourite series of New Doctor Who

    Always much debate over the best Doctor, best Companion etc, and there seems to be a bit of a split between RTD fans and SM fans (including Cryptomundo.com, which is weird). So which series since the 2005 relaunch has been the best in your opinion?

    Hamas leader assassinated in Dubai

    I'm just wondering why it took 26 agents to kill one man, and if they were Mossad, why would they need to steal people's identities? Surely they have the skills to produce completely fake passports?

    iPad App for Fortean Times

    Probably a decision to be made in the higher echelons of Dennis Publishing, but with the launch of the Apple iPad, I was wondering whether there are any plans to do a tablet computer version of Fortean Times Magazine? I thought of lots of different poll questions I could include, but in the end...

    NY Times & Wikipedia conceal journalist kidnapping

    Whilst I can understand to a certain degree why this was done, you'd wonder what the journalists would do if it wasn't one of their own involved. Also does nothing for the credibility of Wikipedia as an accurate source of information (if it had any). Sydney Morning Herald

    Contactees: What was it all about?

    I was watching that fascinating documentary from 1977 "Out of this World", thanks to GNCXX posting the link. The section on the Aetherius society and George King really got me thinking. What did the contactee movement mean? What link did it really have to the rest of the UFO phenomena? Does it...

    On Friday night I had just visited a friend in the maternity ward of our local hospital. I was standing in the carpark talking to another friend who had visited when I saw a large and very bright meteor. It was as bright as Venus, but twice the size and yellow. On Sunday night i had a dream...

    Doune Castle

    Is anyone aware of a ghost tradition at Doune Castle in Scotland? While there in late April this year, I was coming down the stairs into the main hall after climbing up to the roof. Just as I got to the hall I got an impression of a man in checked trousers and a brown fur cloak. When I turned to...
