I even had the glow in the dark alien mothership model. It was quite popular in Texas when I saw it as a teenager. I even had the glow in the dark alien mothership model.

Nightflight/Kithra: Many thanks for the info re where it has been playing. Craig: Yeah it was one of Anderson's better ones. Frankly, I always thought those puppet shows he made we kind of odd. The "Angels" on "Captain Scarlet" were quite appealing though... :) Nightflight: Your comment re UK TV and smoking and drinking etc is interesting. In 2006, my wife and I moved back to the UK and she was quite amused to see how open UK TV is compared with the US - nudity, the F word on mainstream channels, "Page 3" girls in the national daily newspapers (you'll have to Google it if you aren't conversant with this). Much of UK TV is VERY different to US TV. RPJ:

It is usually shown once or twice a day on channel 9486 Dish network HD. Tonight its coming on at 10pm eastern. They sure do a lot of smoking and drinking on the show (must have been allowed in GB in the sixties) and when I see the 66 Olds Toronado that was modified to make it look futuristic, I cringe. I personally love the show and have watched every episode that has been shown. This network also shows Thunderbirds and Flipper.

I remember the excitement I felt seeing the notice in the newspaper when I was twelve. Smiles Lewis showed me a 'compilation film' (basicly the first two episodes edited into a single film ) not long ago, and he has a couple of the novelizations from the series as well. Loopy in a lot of ways, it was still one of Gerry Anderson's better efforts. UFO was a lot of fun.It did run in the states, Nick. I remember the excitement

I recall that it was on one of the local indie LA stations or the PBS affiliate KCET. It wasn't a show I easily forgot (for obvious reasons). I loved the idea that SHADO (the secret org) had disguised itself as a movie production studio. UFO did air in the States in the early 70s.

It's listed on ITV4 at 7:00 pm on a Sunday night. Unfortunately I remember it from the first time around :) If that’s the same series called UFO, with a character called Straker in it, then it’s being shown on Freeview Digital TV here in the UK.
