An extended interview with forester Vince Thurkettle on Country Tracks on April 1 (don't read anything into that!), walking a reporter through Rendlesham Forest at night to give them some idea of what it would have been like for the US airmen stalking the UFO: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00l7vc8/Country_Tracks_Suffolk_Coast/The Rendlesham bit starts at 17:30 in. Probably not available to our friends outside the UK, alas. Ian My original report from 1983, with Vince, can still be seen here www.ianridpath.com/ufo/rendlesham1c.htmAttachments:

The day after this was broadcast, Vimce sent me an email which included the following: "Communication is so odd nowadays – everybody now has a voice, even those who know nothing but want to be heard! I've seen comment that 'I'm not very convincing' etc. I'm not trying to be 'convincing' – like some salesman – I'm just saying they were looking into the bright beam of a lighthouse, we foresters marked the trees etc. I now think there is no point in trying to explain rationally and honestly. Nobody wants to believe there is a simple explanation, so why give them one."
