UFO series Follies

 

This page is dedicated to the old British series UFO created by Sylvia and Gerry Anderson. To know more about the show, see my links .

This is not a serious page, it's just for fun! And, don't take me wrong, I don't intend to make fun of the characters created by the Andersons. I love the show and I thought, why not add a little bit of humor in it.

Since I'm not able to make serious stories (some people already do a far better job then I could see my links) I decided to make some kind of funny stories (I hope they are funny anyway!!). I made them in the form of cartoons or soap opera. And I call them the "what could have happened in UFO" stories.

I also made my own version of the frequently ask questions (FAQ). Completely goofy!

I also have a section where I talk about my favorite episodes and quotes. And at the end of this page is a section where you can listen to your favorite characters speaking... in French! Aren't you at least a little bit curious to hear what voices they have in French?

So let's go and I hope you will enjoy!!

What's new??

on 22th of April 99, I update some improved image by Anthony Appleyard.

I've added a new section of image tricks made by other people.

In Characters speak French, listen to Miss Simons in Psychobombs and hear the difference in her voice in French (very manly) and in English (very feminine)

Why women only wear purple wigs on Moonbase? Answer

Why the interceptors have only one missile? Answer

   Most of the images come from Lisa Williams's web site UFO image library

My favorite episodes and quotes (with some wav file).

Court martial:

 When Straker says to Jackson: "not in the sense you mean!" he shows him that his little game is not gonna work with him. Quote (26k)
 When Ford starts to explain in details how the transmission device works. Very funny. Quote (76k)
 When Jackson says to Foster: "Perhaps a little nervous now, Foster". I just love that guy!!! Quote (60k)
 And of course, the scene with the recording pen and the famous: "I like it ... I like it" Seeing Jackson laughing was also funny. Quote (60k)

Exposed

 When Jackson tell Foster: "Then we shouldn't be meeting again for another couple of years". Isn't he sarcastic? Quote (62k)
 When Straker tell Foster: "Look, I'm not trying to sell you anything, Boy!" He clearly wants to intimidate Foster and he succeeded. Just after that, Foster addresses him as Sir. Quote (53k)
 When Straker says: Hold it right there! with the gun pointing at Foster. He tries to make Foster uncomfortable. Very funny! Quote (27k)

Conflict

 When Straker tell Foster: "Don't let my delight at your survival blind you to the fact that we have a few matters to discuss" I wish I could have seen that discussion...
 When Foster shouts to Henderson: "Yes, I say" This guy is very bold. I also like the little nod that Straker does to order him to sit down. Quote (38K)
 After Henderson said that the HQ might be destroyed if Straker is right, Straker opens the door and say: "still time for you to leave" Straker gives him a taste of his own medicine! Quote (33k)
 When Freeman says: "Straker that sly old ..." and Harrington finishes: "fox?" I find that very funny. It's also good to see Harrington smile. She has a very nice smile. Quote (60k)

Image tricks by other people

Images from Anthony Appleyard:

 

Want to hear your favorite characters speak French?

  •  Straker angry (66K) and giving orders (35K)
  •  Foster: (80K) Not bad either, but I miss his accent.

     Freeman: Not bad, but doesn't look like him! (52K)

     Lt. Elis not much different, but without her nice accent here is a sample of her voice saying: "intercepteurs, parés à lancer" which means: "interceptors, immediate launch" (57k)

     Cl. Lake , good voice too! (55k)

     General Henderson: Not enough punch! (36k)

     Dr Jackson: Poor guy, he looses all his.... "charm" !! Here he says: "certaines sections du cerveau semblaient manquer" which means: "certain sections of the brain seemed to be missing" (38k) Here he says: Leur forme de vie lymphatiques en quelque sorte est très troublante, dur à imaginer" which is a very bad translation of: "The form of live they take, I... I can't begin to imagine" (72k)

     Lt. Nina Barry: Strangely, It seems she had two different voices. See what I mean: (56k) (42k)
