Ed mentioned on BBC Radio 2

keith costello
Hi,

While driving home yesterday listening to Steve Wright on Radio 2 (UK) Ed
Bishop and UFO had a mention during the radio show.

It came about when a quiz contestant on the show was asked about where he
worked. (after he lost the daily quiz competition) His reply was a double
barreled company name ending in Straker which then prompted Steve Wright to
remember the show and of course Ed Bishop.


Regards
Keith

I heard that as well, but actually UFO wasn't mentioned! Old Wrighty
somehow remembered that Ed Bishop was in Space 1999. Steve and his
sidekick also commented that Ed was first choice for American accent
voiceover work in England for many years.

Hi,

Yes, 1999 was the first show mentioned in error with Ed in it but it was
then clarified and changed to UFO.
