I'm quite interested to read this comment! I don't think I
could say the same myself, much as I love UFO it doesn't
have a lot of bearing on real life for me, at least not that
I'm conscious of. I'd love to have a secret underground base
under my house though, but I can't afford one ;)

If you mean that the Russian submarine disaster made you
think of Subsmash, and gave an added sense of the
claustrophobia and panic that must have set in, I think I
understand what you mean, though as we now know, sadly,
what those poor sailors on the Kursk suffered was far worse
than Straker and the Skydiver crew experienced. Freezing
cold, and the submarine slowly flooding completely with
seawater while they were helpless to escape. A bit like
something from Thunderbirds, but with no TB4 turning up in
the nick of time. Makes me shudder to think about it.
