Of course, I should have thought to look for other folks
who appeared in UFO...

Doug,
That's himself. He really does appear that way in person. I was very
surprised, especially since so many had said he was nice. But since he does
not wear his age well, it didn't really seem to me like Straker's aloofness.
In fact, I found nothing of Straker in him. But I've been told by a few
other fans that they caught glimpses. I thought him too much an ass to hang
around long enough to find out. Especially since the rest of the guests
were very convivial. Onstage, however, he was quite jovial. Has to make
you wonder if it's all an act, though. Or maybe he only feels comfortable
onstage. Who knows? In my opinion, his summation of his first impressions
is right on. Does that answer your question?
Yours,
Denise

Hm, sounds like Bill Shatner. A jerk off stage, jovial
on stage.

I didn't find him to be a jerk at all when I saw him
at Century 21. He seemed like he was being nice &
friendly with everyone. I think he must be moody
or something, because sometimes we hear good things
at one con, and then other times we had bad things
at another con.

Marc

It's really too bad that our hero in real life isn't that nice. or doesn't
seem to be. I'm always disappointed if people I admire turn out to be turds
(can I say that on this site?). I've heard tons of bad press about Shatner,
who has been, of late, trying to correct his public persona and even doing
movies based on spoofing himself. Altho I've never met Mike Billington in
person, his e-mails show a sense of humour and he answers them post-haste,
so I hope this means he's a nice fellow - anyone out there methim at a con
and can confirm this impression?

I just found a wonderfully provocative review of the first A$E box set (and
the series) on this site:

http://www.thefacer.net/viewcomment2.asp?SID=&FBID=140

"If you can put aside the two-dimensional characters, loopy treatment of
women, incessant second hand smoke and the occasional plot missteps, UFO is
a grand sci-fi treat. It blows Star Trek away in many ways (but not all),
and certainly presents an alternate view of the future from what we’re used
to being spoon-fed these days. The DVD set features superb quality,
although limited extra features. On my 100 inch, liquid-cooled, plasma
linear-duplex video screen, I could see the individual strands in Lt.
Ellis’ bra (not that I was looking.) Very impressive."

I think the previous poster was saying that perhaps
they were disappointed that Ed the man was not like Ed
the character that they watched on TV. That is the
problem in most convention situations; fans cannot
seperate the actors from the characters they play on
TV. They expect to really meet "Ed Straker" or
"Captain Kirk" or whomever. It's just a TV show, people.

Er.. correction... "some" 'fans cannot seem to seperate the actors from the
characters they play on TV' ;)

Yes, I meant "some"...not "all" as my previous post
alluded to.

Hi All :)

I met Ed at a Fanderson convention, and I found him a very pleasant, affable
person, and that was how he appeared to me even though I was the umpteenth
person in a very long queue waiting to meet him. S'truth, I take my hat off
to these actors; I think of myself as a fairly patient and hopefully not too
unpleasant person, but how I would react or seem to the x hundredth person
asking the same old questions, I would not dare to comment.

Best to all :)

Griff

S'truth! Which episode is he talking about? ...Griff, desperately shuffling
through his multiple sets of UFO DVD's with an extra large Sherlock Holmes
magnifying glass... ;-)

Honestly, Yuchy. These men. How they do carry on.

where a mole has been rumored to be sighted on a certain Commander's
backside, and we're not talking animal planet...)
