I've had this book a while now; I regret to say there is no more than
this one chapter on UFO and in the main it concerns Sylvia's lifelong
friendship with Mike Billington. There may well be some previously
unseen photographs throughout the book, although mainly of the crew at
work on various productions.

I agree, although this perhaps reflects the tone of this book,
essentially being Sylvia's memoirs of her life and career, of which she
naturally concentrates upon those aspects that showcase her successes
and therefore happier memories of working with Gerry, such as the
character of 'Lady P', with whom she has since become identified.
The effect of the personal side of her relationship with Gerry upon
their productions cannot be denied and, understandably as a result both
'UFO' and 'S:1999' are not dwelt upon in detail . Nevertheless, the book
is written with an enevitiable female perspective and is imho both
interesting and charming to read
