Ridiculously, it took me 10 minutes of manual searching to find a link
to the previous installments of this series. How hard is it to put a
link backwards on part four to parts 1-3?
Here it is, so no one else on the list needs to waste any time looking:

I believe this was in the UFO "writers guide", which
was published in an old issue of Fanderson's FAB
magazine.

But that article does need to be taken with a bit
of skepticism... for example, Ed Bishop did NOT
have his ankle broken while filming the episode
MINDBENDER. At least, Ed said he didn't.
