St. George is the patron saint of England and so it marks him.  However no real
holiday just business as usual.  Most odd.

Wales has their own patron saint, Rob and he's called St. David, not St. George.  :)

      Hi Kathy,



St George is the patron saint of England and it's our National Day.  Unfortunately our government (shamefully) doesn't see fit to give us a public/bank holiday like the Irish (St. Patricks day) and Scots (St. Andrews day) get!

However, Wales doesn't get a day off on their National Day (St. Georges day) either.



Cheers,

--

Rob

Thank you, for the super mini history lesson. Right now I can't think of any days like that here in the US.

Anouska Hempel's UFO character

Marc Martin
Administrator
In reply to this post by Tafkar
Hi all,

If I might interrupt the conversion on "St George's Day", which
I initially thought might have had something to do with George
Sewell... :-)

Not too long ago, I was obsessing on the character name that
someone had given to Andrea Allan's UFO moonbase operative
character...

Well yesterday, I saw a post on Facebook that claimed that
Anouska Hempel's UFO character name was "Catherine Scott".
Since that was news to me, I thought I'd investigate.

First off, OFFICIALLY, Anouska's character has no name, as nobody
ever called her by name in the series, and in the end credits
it was always pretty generic ("Skydiver Operative", "SHADO Radio
Operator").

However, I did see that the SHADO Library and THE COMPLETE
BOOK OF UFO gave her the name "Catherine Scott", while IMDB
gave her the name "Tamara Paulson" (!)

So I went looking through my UFO scripts -- both those that have
been transcribed and posted online, and those that haven't.
What I found was this:

  -- in the original script for REFLECTIONS IN THE WATER,
     Anouska's character was named SYLVIA HOWELL, indicating
     that this part was meant for Georgina Moon (as she had
     always played the part named Sylvia Howell in the scripts).
     However, in the change pages (updates) of that script,
     the name was changed to "Catherine Scott".  So that would
     appear to be the origin of the one name.

  -- in the script for THE MAN WHO CAME BACK, her part is
     identified as "Girl Operator"

  -- in the script for MINDBENDER, her part is named "Pauline".

  -- in the original script for THE LONG SLEEP, her character
     isn't in the script at all, but in the change pages her
     part is identified as "Operative".

So there's one mystery solved.  I think I'll just stick to
considering her character as having no name, since there
are no two scripts that agree on a single name.

Hi Marc,

Wow, that's a dedicated piece of detective work... That's what I love about UFO - even with what 44 years since the start - we're still discovering new things about it. But, that has always been one of UFO's greatest strengths... what was never explained, it leaves so much room for the imagination.

Thanks for the heads up!

My suspicion is that the Tamara Paulson name is from a piece of Fanfiction -
in fact I'm 99.9% sure of that. (Which would merely prove that IMDB doesn't
do their homework when adding things.) I vaguely recall changing the
character's name in the Library to Catharine Scott after seeing the
character's name as that in the UFO book.  (Of course, that then begs the
question of where Chris Bentley got it.)

Chris had access to all 26 UFO scripts, so I think he just took it
from the REFLECTIONS IN THE WATER script.

IMDB is a fan supported website.  There is no organization behind it that verifies information on their website.  Anyone can add information, even false information, and no one will know the difference.  I found a error and reported it, and they fixed it.  I believe the group owner, Marc, is responsible for the UFO info on IMDB.

For the most part, IMDB is a good reference, but like the saying goes, you cant believe everything you read on the web.

Really?  I have had absolutely nothing to do with the UFO info on IMDB,
or Wikipedia.  However, I am responsible for what you read on ufoseries.com  :-)

Actually, my e-mail address WAS [hidden email], way back in the
mid 1990's!  But I never posted that Ed Bishop bio on IMDB.  It
looks like someone took some biographical information from
my ufoseries.com site and posted it to IMDB, then credited me as
the author...

Re: Anouska Hempel's UFO character

Sometimes when you write a email, the mood of the email can be mis-understood.  My original email was meant to be a little light hearted, reading it, it didn’t sound like it should have.  I apologized to Marc privately and felt a need to do it publicly too.  I am sorry.

As far as one website stealing content from another, even though credit is given, without the author giving permission. It is still wrong.  I know if content from my website found its way to another, which I have no control over, I would not be very happy.

Glad I was able to bring this to your attention.

Yes, thanks!  Although at this point, I'm used to seeing stuff from
ufoseries.com appearing elsewhere without anyone asking for
permission.  I see it on a daily basis on Facebook... it's not really
a problem, as it's mostly UFO publicity photos that I don't own
the copyright to anyway...

Speaking of which, over the past couple months I've added some
new UFO publicity photos to ufoseries.com, so if you haven't checked
this out lately, you might want to take a look at the new stuff
(all the new stuff is at the top):
