For a county that 10 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: is home to the Westbury white Horse, the ancient feature 11 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: once etched into the side of an Iron Age hill fort, 12 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: and the ever mystical prehistoric monument of Stonehenge, it can 13 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: be hard to stand out in Wiltsha. Back in nineteen 14 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: sixty five, however, the town of Warminster gave it a 15 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: could try. Perhaps the lines of it being an unusual 16 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: place had always been there. It is said that Clay Hill, 17 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: for example, a prominent vantage point just to the west 18 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: of the town, was created by the devil after they 19 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: dug up a mound of earth to bury the nearby 20 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 1: town of Devizes. When the devil decided in the end 21 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: not to bother, the mound was left behind. Some also 22 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: say the Golden Ram of Satan, a supposed talisman that 23 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: once belonged to the devil, is located inside, and that 24 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: a triangular network of tunnels built for an unknown purpose 25 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: lead from the cellar of a nearby tavern directly into 26 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: the center of it. Once, as writer Steve Dewey notes 27 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: in his book in Alien Heat, prominent Warminster journalist Arthur 28 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: Shuttlewood wrote about the urban myth in a leading paper, 29 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: only for the owner of the pub in question, the 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: Royal Oak, to then contact him with a peculiar story 31 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: of his own. There was indeed a tunnel located under 32 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: the pub, he explained, but he'd never given it much 33 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: thought until then, when, not long after the article was published, 34 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: he was apparently visited by a mysterious stranger. When the tall, 35 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: thin man with fanatical dark eyes, as he described him, 36 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: asked to see the tunnels, the landlord kindly led him 37 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: to the basement to inspect them, at which point the 38 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: man requested permission to excavate behind a wall that led 39 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: to the tunnel. When the landlord asked why, the man 40 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: replied simply that he needed access to Clay Hill to 41 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: reclaim the golden ram that was buried underneath it. Upologist 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: John Cleary Baker had his own theory about the hill, 43 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: believing that somehow an alien species had injected a homing 44 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: beacon into it so their UFOs could be guided toward 45 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: the area. It was an idea borne out of the 46 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: extraordinary series of events that occurred in and around Wominster 47 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: in the mid nineteen sixties that, without a doubt, for 48 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: one of the most bizarre and comprehensive UFO flaps in 49 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: British history. You're listening to Unexplained, and I am Richard 50 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: McClean smith. It had just gone six am on the 51 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: morning of December twenty fifth, nineteen sixty five, when thirty 52 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: three year old Marjorie By stepped out of her front door, 53 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: her breath billowing about her in the chilly morning air. 54 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: A boundless sea of stars glimmered in the sky above 55 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: as she pulled her coat in and set off toward 56 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: the church, the heels of her shoes echoing along the quiet, 57 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: deserted streets as she went. When something caught her attention, 58 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: like a faint harm at first, it soon morphed into 59 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: an ominous crackling noise, coming from somewhere in the distance, 60 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: as if a lorry were spreading grit nearby only the 61 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: one vehicles on the road. In fact, Marjorie was completely 62 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: alone on those empty streets. But as the sound drew nearer, 63 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: she soon realized it wasn't coming from down the road. 64 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: It was coming from somewhere above. Marjorie looked up expectantly 65 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: as the sound moved closer, straining for a glimpse of 66 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: whatever was making the noise, but saw only the stars above. 67 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: Suddenly gripped by fear, Marjorie could only stand rooted to 68 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: the spot as the strange, menacing sound passed right over 69 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: her head, a thunderous rattling, as if the very air 70 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: above her was being ripped apart, until finally it was 71 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: gone and faded away into the night. With her legs trembling, 72 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: Marjorie finally managed to place one foot in front of 73 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: the other and hurried on to the church in desperate 74 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: need of shelter. But almost actly the same time, in 75 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: another part of the town, Roger Rump, the town's postmaster, 76 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: was sat having breakfast in his kitchen when he too 77 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: became aware of a low hum. Seconds later, he was 78 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: cowering in his own home when a terrifying clatter rang 79 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: out from somewhere above the house, sounding, as he said later, 80 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: as if the roof tiles were being rattled about and 81 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: plucked off by some tremendous force. It was followed moments 82 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: later by a strange scrambling sound, as if the same 83 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: tiles were then being hurriedly slammed back into place. When 84 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 1: the disturbance was over, Roger raced into the street, relieved 85 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: to find his house was still intact, but no sign 86 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: of whatever could have possibly caused such a racket. And 87 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: there he stood in the quiet of the early morning, 88 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: scratching his head, gazing up at the sky under the 89 00:05:53,720 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: soft light of all those many glimmering stars. Over the 90 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: next few months, down at the offices of the Warminster 91 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: Journal on a market place, the phone didn't stop ringing 92 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: as more and more residents called in to report being 93 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: terrorized by the strange, ominous noise. Most calls were directed 94 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: to Arthur Shuttlewood, a well known local journalist at the time. 95 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: Though originally from Essex, the forty four year old Arthur 96 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: had moved to Warminster in nineteen forty to start work 97 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: at the Wiltshire Times. Arthur moved to the Warminster Journal 98 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: ten years later, and having once served on the town's 99 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: Urban District Council, by nineteen sixty five he was well 100 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: established as a much liked and trusted member of the community. 101 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 1: Arthur was immediately intrigued by the reports and dedicated what 102 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: time he could to collating as much testimony as possible, 103 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: but as interesting as it all was, aside from the 104 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: frequency and similarity of the reports, there was very little 105 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: for him to sink his teeth into. But all that 106 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: was about to change. At some time around eleven p m. 107 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: On the night of March twenty eighth, local resident Eric 108 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: Payne left his girlfriend's house in Sutton Veni, a small 109 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: village about a mile to the south of Warminster, and 110 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: set off on the short walk back to town. Leaving 111 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: the pale sodium glow of the village street lights, Eric 112 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: stepped on into the dark country lane ahead as a 113 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: thick fog began to roll in, and before long it 114 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: had completely surrounded him, even blotting out the sky above. 115 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: As Eric plowed on, he could just make out the 116 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: hazy lights of the next village when he heard a 117 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: whistling noise that steadily grew into a loud buzzing like 118 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: the hum of electricity. Assuming it was coming from a 119 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: nearby telegraph pole, Eric moved over to inspect it when 120 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: he sensed a dimming of the moonlight. Looking up, he 121 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: could just make out a small shadow moved moving through 122 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: the fog. Above him, a vicious wind whipped across the road, 123 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: and then came the noise, like nuts and bolts rattling 124 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: around a tin can, he later said, swirling all about him. 125 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: Eric stood in terror as a strange sensation of heat 126 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: and pins and needles began to build all over his body, 127 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: followed by a strange pressure from above. Unable to resist it, 128 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: Eric was horrified to find himself being pushed to the 129 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: ground by an invisible force, onto his hands and knees. 130 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: With the shrill whine of that hideous noise buzzing in 131 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: his ears, it was all he could do to drag 132 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: himself to the side of the road and throw himself 133 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: down into the grass. And then as quickly as it 134 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: had begun, it was gone. A deeply shocked and rattled 135 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: Eric dragged himself to his feet and stood for a 136 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: moment in a daze, staring in amusement at the trees 137 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: by the side of the road. Their tops had been 138 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: completely flattened. It was Warminster resident Hilda Hebdage who finally 139 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: saw it first, a cigar shaped object in the sky 140 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: over the forest of Long Leap, just to the west 141 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: of Warminster, that winked vivid shades of gold and yellow. 142 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: As was recounted to Arthur Shuttlewood, Hilda had apparently seen 143 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: the object three times before contacting a UFO group she knew, 144 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: who in turn passed on the information to Arthur, each 145 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: time hovering for a moment, she said before shooting off 146 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: into the blue. It was the beginning of Arthur's intense 147 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: association with the phenomenon, as he threw what weight he 148 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: had behind the reports. Then, on June third, nineteen sixty six, 149 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: three separate sightings from completely unrelated sources, the Philips family 150 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: in Haytesbury see a brightly cigar shaped object hanging in 151 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: the sky, while Dora and Harold Horlock, seeing it from 152 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: their home in Warminster, described it as being like two 153 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: red hot pokers hanging downwards, one on top of the other, 154 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: with a black space in between them. And At Sheer Water, 155 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: a human made lake about a mile south of Warminster, 156 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: resident Colinhampton was so distracted by the bizarre object he 157 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: saw that he fell into the water. He was just 158 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 1: one of seventeen individuals at the lake that day who 159 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: claimed to have seen it too. With the number of 160 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: sightings continuing to grow throughout the summer, it was clear 161 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: to Arthur that something very peculiar indeed was taking place 162 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: in the area, with what had first started out as 163 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: an ominous, unsettling sound now having solidified into something else entirely. 164 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: The locals had a name for it too, the Warminster Thing, 165 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: and perhaps with good reason, it was starting to worry them. 166 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: On the evening of August seventeenth, David Pinnell was at 167 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: home on the Boreham Field housing estate when a huge 168 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: explosion coming from the direction of Battlesbury to the north 169 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: sent him running from his property. With the ground shaking 170 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: beneath him. Pinnell got out just in time to see 171 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: what he described as a monstrous flame in the sky, 172 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: shaped like a light bulb, that bathed the hills below 173 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: in a soft orange light. Pinnell had watched, mesmerized as 174 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: this light faded to reveal another yellow light, surrounded by 175 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: a huge ball of smoke that floated down to the hills, 176 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: cracking and hissing as it came into contact with the ground. 177 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: Such occurrences weren't entirely irregular, since a British Army's school 178 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: of infantry was located only twenty miles away. Pinnell was adamant, however, 179 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: that not only did this come from a completely different direction, 180 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: but it was unlike anything he'd seen before. Keen to investigate, 181 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: Arthur Shuttlewood got in touch with all military installations within 182 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: the vicinity, and all denied it was anything to do 183 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: with them. By August nineteen sixty six, with local nerves 184 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: becoming increasingly frayed, Emlyn Rees, chairman of Warminster Urban District Council, 185 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: took the extraordinary move to call a town hall meeting 186 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: in the hope of getting to the bottom of it all. 187 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: But with news of the Warminster thing beginning to spread 188 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: far and wide, there was no sign of the phenomenon 189 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: abating anytime soon. On the day of the meeting, Reheese 190 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: arrived at the town hall staggered to find upwards of 191 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: three hundred people, many from out of town, trying to 192 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: cram inside the building, with many spilling out onto the streets. 193 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: The event was so oversubscribed that Reece could barely get 194 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: in himself. Inside, onlookers bustled for space alongside a dozen 195 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: or so journalists, including a TV crew from a national 196 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: news agency, as they all waited excitedly for the event 197 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: to begin. Finally, with wreaths in place, he welcomed up 198 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: the first of six eyewitnesses to give their accounts of 199 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: what they'd seen. Among them were Roger Rump, the town's postmaster, 200 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 1: and Rachel Atwell, another Warminster resident, who only a few 201 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: weeks before had been stirred from sleep in the early 202 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: hours of the morning by a deep, droning sound. When 203 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: she opened her eyes, she was shocked to find the 204 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: room was shaking. Following the sound to the window, she 205 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: looked out to see a bright, dome shaped object hanging 206 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: in the sky about two hundred yards away above a 207 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: range of hills. She watched it, she said, shaking like 208 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: a leaf for a good twenty five minutes before it 209 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: and the noise disappeared, leaving her with the feeling of 210 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 1: a tight band of steel around her forehead and a 211 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: pounding in her ears. The witnesses were joined by doctor 212 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: John Cleary Baker, evaluating officer of the British UFO Research Association, 213 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: and doctor E. R. Dole, chairman of the National UFO Association. 214 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: Both were quick to put the crowd at ease, imploring 215 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: that they should not feel afraid, but rather privileged to 216 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: be at the center of such an extraordinary event. Both 217 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: men were convinced the town were dealing with, as Cleary 218 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: Baker put it, the manifestation of an advanced technology, undoubtedly 219 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: piloted by alien beings. At one point, Counselor Reese stopped 220 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: proceedings when he was given a telegram to read out 221 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: investigations completed. Stop invasion fears are unfounded. Stop. The message 222 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: had been sent by a doctor who One man who 223 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: didn't attend the meeting was local resident David Holton, an 224 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: amateur geologist. While carrying out his own investigations along five 225 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: Ash Lane, a narrow road that ran through a small 226 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: patch of woodland just south of Warminster, Halton discovered a 227 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: flock of dead pigeons scattered across the road. The birds, 228 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: according to Halton, had died at the same time as 229 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: one of the occurrences of the terrifying noise had been heard, 230 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: causing him to speculate but they'd been killed by the 231 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: sonic interference. Halton also claimed to have amassed evidence of 232 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: up to two hundred separate sightings and accounts of the 233 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: Warminster Thing, but later burnt the dossier to preserve the 234 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: identity of his sources. Councilorese's ultimate hope was that his 235 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: meeting might bring an end to the Warminster Thing. In reality, 236 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: it did anything, but not least because only two weeks 237 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: later someone finally got a picture of it. This year, 238 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm refocusing on what it means to take care of myself, 239 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: and it couldn't be easier than with Daily Harvest.

Arthur was 261 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: in the offices at work when he received the call. 262 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: It was a young man from Warminster in possession of 263 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 1: an incredible photograph. The man, Gordon Faulkner, was walking out 264 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: of his house a few days previously carrying a camera. 265 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: He was planning to give to his sister when he 266 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: spotted it what he first took to be a plane 267 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: shooting across the sky, but completely silent. Without thinking, he 268 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: grabbed a camera and started to shoot. It was only 269 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: when the photo was developed, however, that he saw clearly 270 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: it was in fact a sorcer shaped object. When Arthur 271 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: saw the picture for himself, he was in no doubt 272 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: as to what it was. Finally, there was irrefutable proof. 273 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: Without delay, he traveled immediately to the offices of national newspaper, 274 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,479 Speaker 1: The Daily Mirror. They published it the following day, along 275 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: with Arthur's supporting article, the biggest scoop of his career, 276 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: and then four days later something else. Around midnight, on 277 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: a quiet stretch of the A thirty eight road, thirty 278 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: two year old Kenneth Kimberly is driving home from Bristol 279 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: when he spots a patch of mist up ahead, approaching 280 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: at speed. The moment he enters it, the engine and 281 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: light cut out, suddenly bringing the car to a quick 282 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: stop by the side of the road. Sitting alone in 283 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: the pitch black of amused, Kenneth tries the engine again, 284 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: unsuccessfully for the third time. When the car is suddenly 285 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: bathed in light from above. Kenneth is trying to see 286 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: where the light is coming from when he's bombarded by 287 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: a terrifying, shrill and guttural roar like a jet engine. 288 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: With the back of the car now beginning to vibrate, 289 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: Kenneth pushes open the door and leaps out, but no sooner. 290 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: As he stepped into the road, the lights and noise 291 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: completely disappear, leaving him standing alone and trembling in the dark, 292 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:23,959 Speaker 1: silent night. On September twenty sixth, Arthur Shuttlewood was at 293 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: home when he received a phone call from a mystery 294 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: caller wanting to discuss the sightings with him directly. When 295 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: Arthur suggested they meet at the office of the Warminster Journal, 296 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: the caller declined, saying they needed to see him right away. 297 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: The caller's name, a Shuttlewoo would later claim was carn 298 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: and they had come here from the planet Ainstria. Assuming it, 299 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: of course to be a hoax, Shuttlewood joked that if 300 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: they were really who they said they were, he would 301 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: like to meet them in person. So it was with 302 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: huge surprise when only moments later there was a loud 303 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: knock at the door opening it, Arthur was greeted by 304 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: the apparent Khn, who, although bearing a striking resemblance to 305 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: a human being, none the less, had unusually small pupils 306 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: and oddly bluish cheeks and lips. As Shuttlewood later wrote, 307 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: the supposed visitor came with a warning that he wished 308 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: Arthur to relay to the human race that if humanity 309 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: didn't change its ways immediately, it would cause irreversible destruction 310 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: to itself and the planet. When the visitor made their 311 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: good byes after ten minutes, Shuttlewood claimed he traced the 312 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 1: original call back to a location near bore and Field, 313 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: close to a nearby army barracks. According to Shuttlewood, he 314 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: continued to field calls from a number of representatives of 315 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: the planet of Ainstria throughout September and October of nineteen 316 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: sixty five, never entirely sure if it had been a 317 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: hoax or not. But what Shuttlewood wanted more than anything 318 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: else was to see the thing for himself, and he 319 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: wouldn't have long to wait. On the afternoon of September eighteenth, 320 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: Arthur was at home finishing an article about famed lion 321 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: tamer Mary Chippenfield when he went upstairs to grab a 322 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: notebook from his office. Stepping into the room, he was 323 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: distracted by something outside the window, hovering under the clouds, 324 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: a white cigar shaped object with a slight domed protrusion 325 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: the color of burned amber. Arthur called down to his 326 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: wife to bring up his film camera, only to remember 327 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 1: he was alone in the house at the time. Returning 328 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: to the room moments later with camera in hand, relieved 329 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 1: to find the object was still there, he quickly flipped 330 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: off the lens cap and proceeded to film it. But 331 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: as soon as he pressed record, as Arthur would later recall, 332 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: the camera began stuttering and jumping about in his hands. 333 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: Then a sharp pain gripped the entire left side of 334 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: his body, shooting up his arm and face. When he 335 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: was finally able to try again, the object had gone. 336 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: Opening the camera up, he found the film uselessly coiled 337 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: up inside, hoping you might have caught something. Nonetheless, he 338 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: sent it away to be processed. Just over twenty four 339 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: feet of it was untouched, while the other eight or 340 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: so inches were completely overexposed. In the weeks following this 341 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: apparent sighting, Shuttlewood claimed he suffered from a partial paralysis 342 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: at the less side of his body and a weeping 343 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: eye that lasted two months. A few miles away, on 344 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,919 Speaker 1: the night of October seventh, Annabel Randall, a confidential clerk 345 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: for the War Department, was driving with her fiance John Plowman, 346 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: towards Stockton from Warminster. It had just gone eleven thirty pm. 347 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: A couple rounded the curve onto a railway bridge when 348 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: Annabel gasped at the sight of what looked like a 349 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: man slumped against the pavement with his legs dangling into 350 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: the road. Pressing hard on the brakes, Annabel brought the 351 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: car to a screeching halt as she took a moment 352 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: to collect herself. John jumped out and sprinted back to 353 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: the bridge, only to find it completely deserted. Having made 354 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: a quick search of the area and finding nothing untoward, 355 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: a greatly relieved John returned to the car and the 356 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: couple continued on their way, returning later from the opposite direction. 357 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: Annabell was approaching the bridge for a second time that 358 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: night when she was distracted by the glow of a 359 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: large orange ball shaped object to her right, moving close 360 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: to where the rail tracks trailed off. Just then her 361 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: car engine began to sputter As the headlights flickered and dimmed. 362 00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: With the light growing brighter, Annabell realized with horror that 363 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: it was now moving quickly toward her. Squinting through the glare, 364 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 1: she fought hard to stop the car from careening off 365 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: the road when another object up ahead spun suddenly into 366 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: her path, But as she braced for impact, the car's 367 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: engine cut out altogether, slowing the car down just in time. 368 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: Annabel could only watch in complete disbelief as the second 369 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: object flew off quickly to the right, shooting red and 370 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: blue sparks as it went, and leaving in its wake 371 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: what appeared to be two people standing still in the 372 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: middle of the road. As she recounted later, they seemed 373 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: to be dressed in dark, tight fitting clothes like scuba divers. 374 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: Finding her engine was then working properly again, Annabel was 375 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: just able to avoid hitting the figures as she sped 376 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: off back into the night, relieved to put the bizarre 377 00:24:53,440 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: episode behind her. Over the next few years, Warminster's reputation 378 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: as a hotbed of UFO activity, championed by the likes 379 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,640 Speaker 1: of Arthur Shuttlewood, only continued to grow with no let 380 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: up in the rate of sightings. In May nineteen sixty seven, 381 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: Shuttlewood published a book, The Warminster Mystery, Astounding UFO Sightings, 382 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: which provided a comprehensive list of all known sightings up 383 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: to that point. By then, the town had become inundated, 384 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: with skywatchers eager to catch a glimpse of the thing, 385 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: often camping out at the top of Cradle and Clay 386 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: Hills for days on end. On one night in nineteen 387 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: sixty six, a team of enthusiasts led by doctor John 388 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: Cleary Baker even attempted to contact the apparent visitors using 389 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: storm lanterns in the shape of a triangle in an 390 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 1: effort to help guide them toward the area. The sightings 391 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: were so extensive that in nineteen seventy one, local UFO 392 00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: enthusiast Ken Rogers began publishing Warminster's very own UFO newsletter. 393 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: This was followed in late nineteen seventy five by the 394 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: opening of a dedicated UFO research center run by wife 395 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: and husband team Jane and Peter Paget, called the Fountain Center, 396 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: which also published its own newsletter. But as the years 397 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: went by, eventually the sightings would start to dwindle, and 398 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: with them, so too did the town's enthusiasm for any 399 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: talk at the Warminster Thing, and before long it was 400 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 1: little more than a bizarre footnote in the memories of 401 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: those who were there at the time. Shuttlewood published two 402 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: further books on the subject and joined the editorial team 403 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: of the Fountain Center's newsletter for a short time in 404 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy six, before leaving shortly after. He died in 405 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 1: Warminster in nineteen ninety six. Back in nineteen sixty five, 406 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: Roger Houghton twenty three at the time was a print 407 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: worker employed by the same printing press that published the 408 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: Warminster Journal. Twenty nine years later, in nineteen ninety four, 409 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: he finally came clean. The apparent photo of the UFO, 410 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 1: taken by Gordon Faulkner, so heralded by Arthur Shuttleworth and 411 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: one that turned a minor local story into intense national news, 412 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: was a fake. He and his friend Gordon, who had 413 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: made it as a practical joke that too quickly got 414 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: out of hand after seeing it published in a national newspaper. 415 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: He and Gordon had just been too scared at the 416 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: time to admit the truth. Then, in two thousand and five, 417 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: amateur geologist David Holton also came clean. His story about 418 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: pigeons mysteriously killed by sonic interference had also been fabricated, 419 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: and yet there remained so many events and sightings even 420 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: before Gordon Faulkner's photograph was published. One individual who was 421 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: there at the time, Kevin Goodman, maintains a fantastic archive 422 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: relating to the period, which you can find at UFO 423 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: hyphen Warminster dot co dot UK.
