I'm a double agent.

You're definitely double something...

OSP only chose this episode because Partick M was in it.

Is that all? I want more. It is too abrupt.

I like tv shows that leave you wanting more.

Well, you can interpret the ending two ways, which is great,

This amnesia drug...what sort fo timescale does it affect? Is she going to remember her husband's bringing her a pendant? Is Mr Fowler going to remember where he left the gun?

I love the fact that we're watching these out of order - like O(S)P's got a Random Episode Generator.

Well, they always ran the episodes out of order back in the day.

Yes, but... it is not fair!

You promised me an alien! All I got was a man in a stupid suit, who died before he'd had time to do anything alien-y.

How come the official order is different from the broadcast order?

Well, they always ran the episodes out of order back in the day.

What is the other way? I see her standing at her husband's grave, and then joined by Mr Slimeball.

You should have specified you wanted a MONSTER

You promised me an alien! All I got was a man in a stupid suit, who died before he'd had time to do anything alien-y.

Not necessary if the man-in-a-stupoid-siut alien has alien enough purposes when he gets the chance to do something other than fall over.

He was in Southern England. So there was no chance of anyone talking to him.

These are great rewatch material. Not quite up there with The Champions, but not far off.

Well, I made it to the end and confounded the critics. Are we done?

Are you sure it was her husband's grave? To be honest I may have switched it off too early...

It was a grave, and then she walks away and a man, who I think is Slimeball, joins her.

It was a grave, and then she walks away and a man, who I think is Slimeball, joins her. Of course, she could be mourning a dead child, or researching her family tree.

Join us next week for another UFO episode. Then if you fancy summat else,speak up.

V. happy to stick with UFO. When you’ve had enough, tho’, here’s something that’s probably been done before. Episode from each original core B7 cast member’s pre-Blake CV. E.g. could pick from:

Gareth T in Play for Today (‘Stocker’s Copper’) – not seen it tbh. Past my bedtime.
David J in Thriller (‘The Eyes Have It’) – glittering cast, hugely entertaining
Stephen Greif in Citizen Smith – essential viewing (loads of other stuff, if not available)
Jacqueline P in episode of The Edwardians – the one where Anthony Hopkins is Lloyd George and JP’s a countess
Sally K in episode of Who Pays the Ferryman? – entertainingly naff series
Paul D’s appearance in Special Branch & Michael K’s in Doomwatch – never seen those

Good way of lightly dipping into a range of classic old shows. Just an idea.
