Yes, but did you check the credits on my "UFO Cast Information" page? :-)

Ed is definitely in Saturn 3, but you're right -- I don't think you
can *see* him in this movie, only *hear* him. One of his favorite
convention stories concerns this movie. He practiced his lines,
rehearsed the scene, and then much to his surprise someone came out
and put a giant helmet over his head so that you couldn't see his
face -- and then the director yelled "Action!".

:-(

Well that will be interesting!

Although, if this explanation contradicts our previous
information about Lew Grade, we have a problem in that
the original information came from an interview with
Gerry Anderson -- *which* Gerry Anderson interview
are we expected to believe in this case???

Oh, PE-LEASE don't mention Saturn 3, I saw Ed B listed as appearing in it
years ago (pre-Internet days) and there was no sign of him. Nor of his
voice. May have something to do with the movie being shown on a French
channel back then, therefore dubbed in French :-)
His name appearing as an actor in that movie was a mystery, which was
solved one day by joining this list and reading his voice appeared, not him...

CU

Lieve

He's the shuttle pilot under the big helmet that says something about
"reemerging from SHADOW" - always thought that was amusing ...
