SHADOGUESTS

Here's some of the guests that will be hopefully attending Shado con next month.

 Director Alan Perry who is always entertaining.


Here he is in full flow at Cosford, with focus puller, Robin MacDonald laughing in the background.


The charming and amiable Shane Rimmer is attending. He's best known to Anderson fans as the voice of Scott Tracy of course, but he does have his UFO connections.



Ayshea Brough  who played Operative Ayshea Johnson throughout  the series will be there. I'm happy to say I've met Ayshea a couple of times now and she's still a lovely lady.



Here she is on stage with fellow UFO actors, Georgina Moon and Jeremy Wilkin.


Keith Alexander, who played Keith Ford in the series will not unfortunately be attending in person but organisers are hoping to set up a live Skype link from his home in Australia. Sounds like something that would happen in UFO!

Susan Jameson and Michael Jayston, who appeared together in the episode 'The Sound of Silence' will be attending.

Gary Raymond, who played Col. John Grey in the episode,' The Man Who Came Back' will be there.
He appeared along with cult TV star Derren Nesbitt in that episode.

Plus yet another guest has just been announced  - Alan Harris, who appeared in UFO in several episodes, in particular as the Skydiver sonar operator in the episode, 'Destruction'.

So, a great UFO line up for whats shaping up to be a great one day event.

Scriptwriter, Ruric Powell who was going to attend, sadly passed away earlier this year. Our condolences to his family.
