UFO S01E23 "The Sound of Silence"

An alien craft lands in woodland near the home of horseman Russell Stone. When Stone goes missing suspicion initially falls on Ben Culley, a tramp with whom Stone had recently argued over trespassing on his property. However, Culley is found dead and it seems likely that the green alien who killed him has captured Stone.The trail leads to a nearby lake where it seems likely that the alien is hiding. . . Michael Jayston stars as Russell Stone. Also starring Ed Bishop, Dolores Mantez, and Susan Jameson.

This used to be my Saturday morning viewing. Thanks for bringing back memories!

Loved this on a Thursday night (I think) as a kid in the 70s. I've still got the annual from 1970.

I loved watching this series as a teenager but this particular episode gave me nightmares

[@gregbelcher641]

Best episode of the series!

[@michellaboureur7651]

I remember watching this episode when a teenager, I can recall it from the scenes when the alien is lurking in the underwood and later when the vehicles muster around the pond to flush the spaceship out and destroy it. It gives a weird feeling thus being able to revisit one’s memories. By the way, they dealt rather rashly with hostage-taking in those days 😅. They weren’t quite used to it yet. Have we made progress ? Unfortunately we’ve had to….

Showing its age ! Streaker to female Skydiver crew member ; "How's about some of that Skydiver coffee" 😂 Like space 1999 this show had many different writers, script writers and directors. This made some episodes much better than others.. That said they all had just 45 minutes to build a plot and then wind it all up so a few holes here and there and some unlikely scenario's were inevitable .. A a kid I was glued to these shows when they first aired.. Great memories

It was used again on another actress in the Psychbombs episode. 😅

my eyes popped out, that leather? in public? in Britain??

[@grahamspragg7494]

​@roadgent7921 In the psychobombs, the dress was pink, and wasn't made of leather.

[@roadgent7921]

@grahamspragg7494 Seems to be the same dress, and red leather. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4u6mHqLbNyEhrcsi=6S152cfPE8_hU_g0

Brilliant!

[@while_coyote]

The plot of this show is just so weird, but I love it.

[@paulforder591]

One of the better episodes with a happy ending to it. The main reason why UFO failed after one season (1969-70) was because there were episodes that had potential to have their plots improved upon, or have background info on some of the leading characters, and the m.o. of the aliens, but released as they were, they left a lot to be desired. Nonetheless, some episodes still hold up well after 53 years. I used to watch this show back in the early 90s. Still gripping after all this time. 👽🛸🛸🛸

[@mumblesbadly7708]

SHADO would have been far more effective in thwarting the aliens if they have more attack craft. Only 3 moonbase intercept craft? And only 1 sub-and-jetcraft? Ridiculous given how those armorments need regular repair and maintenance!

[@Writ3r_Dude]

They were government-subsidized. Very low budget.

[@mumblesbadly7708]

@@Writ3r_Dude And because of the governments’ half-ass financial commitment to SHADO, we now have the majority of the Republican Party infected with the Trump/MAGA virus! Very SAD!

[@grahamspragg7494]

There was more than 1 sub-and-jet craft. In the episode "Ordeal", there is a mention of a "replacement Sky 1" when Colonel Foster is flying off in the regular Sky 1. Then there's "Psychobombs" which features a Sky 3, I think, and I'm sure there is a Sky 4 in one other episode.

[@mumblesbadly7708]

@@grahamspragg7494 But only a replacement in case the Sky 1 was out of commission. Any fighter pilot knows that 2 aircraft are way more effective in patrolling the sky and attacking enemy aircraft than a single one!

It is the only episode in which Barry Gray's soundtrack introduces a slow and disturbing guitar, it is also the episode that contains more location shots than the episode "the long sleep" filmed on a farm
