Dear Stephen - hope this e-mail means you're doing well health-wise again!
While Capt Scarlett could be of interest to $ men, I think UFO has an even
stronger premise and I'd more inclined to "push" that idea. I did e-mail Mr.
Anderson (at his fanderson site) and the other gentleman who'd attempted the
1996 UFO reunion program. I've been telling my friends here in Canada that
UFO was a "precursor" of sorts to certain aspects of the X-Files, trying to
get them interested in accessing the web sites devoted to the show, and I'm
hoping to get the Space Channel here in Canada as a Xmas gift from my hubby
so that if they start re-running UFO I'll be all ready for it.

Please don't apologize for being a "romantic"!! I feel that those who love
and respect the original UFO series would cheer to see UFO resurrected, and
I agree - Ed Bishop could still play Straker with a very commanding
presence! I saw film captures of him from a Highlander program a couple of
years ago and he still looks "the part." If William Shatner and Leonard
Nimoy could play Kirk and Spock respectively in advancing age (and wisdom),
I'm sure Mr. Bishop and Mr. Billington could do so.

I have a personal question to ask Stephen - what is your take on UFO slash?
I find it appalling, but some UFO fans seem to adore it. Any feedback?

Thanks, Pam McCaughey
