Manuela Battistelli has posted a video on YouTube about her trip to the "Project Ford / UFOria 3" convention!

I've added a page for the "Project Ford" UFO convention last weekend here!

Here is a YouTube video with video from last weekend's "Project Ford" convention, featuring some of the UFO filming locations and the model room.

Mike Burrows has a new blog post with thoughts and photos about the "Project Ford" UFO convention this past weekend!

UPDATE!  IMDB was incorrectly reporting that Deborah Grant (Linda Simmons in the UFO episode THE PSYCHOBOMBS) had passed away. This is not true (confirmed by two sources), and this has now been corrected on IMDB.

Project Ford this weekend!!! Hopefully people will take lots of photos / videos (and hopefully I can add some of these here -- feel free to contribute anything, contact me via email at marc@ufoseries.com, I can setup a file dropbox if needed)

This month's Infinity magazine special issue is a Gerry Anderson Special, so it's bound to contain some UFO content!

In December, Via Vision / Imprint Television is releasing a "standard edition" of their UFO Blu-ray set.  Differences from the original limited edition version are no outer hardbox and with multiple inner disc cases, no booklet, and no 8th disc with Invasion: UFO.  Pre-order here!

Century 21 Films is releasing a new book featuring vintage interviews with Ed Bishop, Gerry Anderson, Sylvia Anderson, Bob Bell, and more! The book is titled "Future Memories", and is due out soon!

Today is the 55th anniversary of the first UK broadcast of UFO! (although I'm told that it aired in Canada two days prior)

I see that there are 16 spots left for the upcoming "Project Ford" event, along with a new "mystery guest"!  Announced guests include Keith Alexander and Ayshea Brough.

The Australian (ViaVision / Imprint) limited edition UFO Blu-ray is now listed as out of stock! (that was quick)

Some sad news - actor Stanley McGeagh, who played a SHADO security guard in the UFO episodes "E.S.P." and "Mindbender" has passed away, at age 85.

There is an upcoming UFO 55th Anniversary Celebration and Location Tour at the end of October near London called "Project Ford", with in-person special guest Keith Alexander!

"The Gerry Anderson Podcast" has posted an interview with Georgina Moon (Skydiver operative) on YouTube!

Century 21 Films has put up a new video on YouTube -- "Gerry and Sylvia Anderson Remember UFO"!

The Digital Bits has published their review of the new Imprint UFO Blu-ray set!

It's now been 20 years since UFO stars Ed Bishop and Michael Billington passed away within a week of each other. Ed Bishop passed away on June 8, 2005 and Michael Billington passed away on June 3, 2005.

Added a page with screen captures showing differences between the video quality on the Australia / UK / Japan UFO Blu-ray sets!

Also, please note that my comment earlier about the CONFETTI CHECK A-OK opening sequence still being there only applies for when you are ripping an episode from disc to a file. On a regular Blu-ray player, it skips over that (as it should).

OK, I've received my new Imprint UFO Blu-ray set! With regard to the new grading/fixes, I would say that this is mostly the same as the Japan/German Blu-rays, in that it does not have the excessive noise reduction or brightness or washed out colors that the UK set had. 18 of the episodes appear to be the same as the Japan/German set, while 8 of the episodes have some fixes. These fixes include things like corrected day-for-night scenes (so things look like night now instead of day), correcting bland/washed out/tinted colors, fixing the 16:9 aspect ratio error on ORDEAL, and adding sepia tint for THE LONG SLEEP. Oddly they did not remove the standard opening credits that should not be part of CONFETTI CHECK A-OK.

The updated episodes (compared to the Japan Blu-ray) are FLIGHT PATH, ORDEAL, THE CAT WITH TEN LIVES, THE SOUND OF SILENCE, THE PSYCHOBOMBS, REFLECTIONS IN THE WATER, TIMELASH, and THE LONG SLEEP.

If you are in the USA, the new Imprint UFO Blu-ray set is now in-stock at Orbit DVD! (now out of stock, but presumably will be back in stock at some point, and that's the cheapest price I've seen in the USA)

The music video for UFO from the Power Themes 90 album has now been redone in high definition!

I've seen some reports of Imprint UFO Blu-ray sets being delivered to customers in Australia, otherwise these are still in transit or haven't yet shipped. Initial comments indicate the picture quality is great and people are happy with the set!

It looks like my copy won't be arriving until April 30th, and then I can start updating my page on this.

In the USA, the free streaming service "Pluto TV" now has UFO available... although I'm only seeing 18 of the 26 episodes available!

I'm hearing about people receiving shipping notices for the new UFO Blu-ray box set from Imprint!

Some sad news - Jean Marsh, who played Janna Wade in the UFO episode "Exposed", has passed away at age 90.

Digital downloads of "UFO Comic Anthology" are now available for purchase from the Gerry Anderson Store! (Volume 1, Volume 2)

The USA Amazon.com has the upcoming Imprint Television UFO Blu-ray set available with a release date of May 9th (compared to April 23rd if ordered from Imprint).

Just received notice that the upcoming UFO Blu-ray from Via Vision / Imprint Television has been delayed 4 weeks.  Now expected 23 April 2025.

Added a new publicity photo of Straker posing in the Moonbase sleep sphere!

Added a new publicity photo of Paul Foster from the episode SUB-SMASH.

Created a new page for the upcoming UFO Blu-ray set from Imprint Television (due to be released in late March)

I've just created a Facebook page for my UFO Series Home Page, which will be a way to see what's new on the site, and also cover any major UFO news. Sort of a "what's new" page but on Facebook. So not extremely busy like some of the UFO pages/groups on Facebook, and probably more focused on things you may have never seen before.  

The Official Gerry Anderson store has a new UFO T-Shirt now available for purchase!

The Italian Section of SHADO (ISOSHADO) has updated its website with membership information for 2025!

For those of you who never bought the UK/Network UFO Blu-rays, one of the lengthier special features is now available on YouTube -- From the Earth to the Moon / Making of UFO Documentary.

For those of you who remember Jeff Smart's "The Future Was Fantastic" video but didn't get it when it was briefly made available years ago, Jeff now briefly has it available again!  This features a "whatever happened to" various props, models, locations and vehicles from various Gerry Anderson series, was narrated by Ed Bishop, and in its current incarnation spans 2 DVDs and runs a bit over 4 hours long!  If you are interested in ordering this, do it quick, using these instructions here!

In Australia, ViaVision/Imprint has just announced that they will be releasing an 8-disc Blu-ray set for UFO, due March 2025!  Note this bullet: "Grading work and updates have been applied to select episodes, correcting specific flaws in the original restoration".  Also includes brand new commentary tracks, other new special features, and a 120-page booklet!
