Marc and the rest of SHADO,

I was glad to have found this group, thanks for the welcome message. My name is George and I was looking for a source of UFO videos in the internet and one of the sites lead me to this group.

I was living in the UK (station there in the military) in 1970/71 when this program was originally televised. So I had the good fortune to see it in its first run. Since then I've seen some of the episodes back here in the US.

I belong to a Dr Who group that meets to view that show once a month. We sometimes use other Sci Fi stories as fillers when the Dr Who show is not too long. I felt that this group would appreciate seeing UFO and so explains my search for UFO videos. Any help in this area would be appreciated!

I personally also would like to see UFO again and I'm sure I haven't seen every episode.

I am now retired from the military living and working in Northern Virginia. Where do most of this groups members live? Do you have any kind of a library of programming and is it in the NTSC format? I have found the amazon.com source, but that seems to be limited to only a few stories, are there any other sources of this program?

Look at some of the program synopsis, I now realize that this show was truly ahead of its time. Several ideas presented in the show are now a reality.

Sincerely,
George May

I think the US SHADO fan club may have videos members can borrow - is
that right, Marc? Do they still do that? But the DVDs are coming out
soon - we've been talking about that a lot lately.

List members come from all over. Right now, I'm in Texas <ptooey>

That's why so many people still love the show today.

If you can wait until the summer, A&E Video will be releasing the
first half of the series on DVD... and possibly VHS (?). If you
can't, there are only 8 episodes available in America.

Also, all 26 episodes will be available on DVD in the UK by June, but
that would require you to have a special DVD player to view them
(although apparently these can be purchased for less than $100)

And of course, there always seems to be 10 people selling VHS copies
made from the Japanese laserdiscs on eBay...
