Okay! That's the first question. I'm creating a file which I'm
going to store all questions in, just in case there's an opportunity
to ask them at Century 21.

Anyone got any more questions for the UFO guest stars
appearing at Century 21? Here's who's coming:

* Gerry Anderson (co-creator, director of IDENTIFIED)
* Ed Bishop (Cmdr. Ed Straker)
* Gabrielle Drake (Lt. Gay Ellis)
* Dolores Mantez (Lt. Nina Barry)
* Peter Gordeno (Capt. Peter Carlin)
* Harry Baird (Interceptor Pilot Mark Bradley)
* Alan Perry (director of SURVIVAL, THE DALOTEK AFFAIR, THE RESPONSIBILITY
SEAT, CLOSE UP, KILL STRAKER)
* Ken Turner (director of FLIGHT PATH, CONFLICT, ORDEAL, ESP, DESTRUCTION,
MINDBENDER)
* Mike Trim (designer of SHADO mobile, SID, moon mobiles, moonbase)

Here's one from me for Ken Turner:

- in the episode ORDEAL, the original script purposely called for
everything to become more & more outrageous, so that you could
tell that something's not quite right. Yet,
in the finished episode these scenes are all played straight. Do you
remember why this change was made?

And another:

- I heard once heard a rumor that ORDEAL started filming with a different
director, but that this director was replaced when they'd gone
through several days of shooting & all they had to show for it
were party scenes. Is this true?
