UFO lands in Suffolk and that's official, said the News of the World. But what really happened across two nights in December 1980 when US servicemen saw mysterious lights in Rendlesham Forest and claimed to have had a close encounter with an actual alien craft?
Encounters, a new podcast available exclusively on Wondery Plus, takes a deep dive into one of the most famous and still unresolved UFO encounters to ever take place in the UK. Featuring shocking testimony from first-hand witnesses, journalists and senior military personnel...
Hosts, journalist, podcaster and UFO researcher Andy Macmillan, that's me, and producer Elle Scott take us back to the nights in question and examine all of the evidence and conflicting theories about what was encountered in the middle of a snowy Suffolk forest 40 years ago.
I'm podcast producer Elle Scott and I've always been intrigued by that question. You know the one. Are we alone? The Rendlesham Forest encounter is often described as the UK's Roswell and does seem pretty unexplainable. But what actually happened back in 1980? If, like me, you're curious, come with us on this series and be prepared to question everything. Here's a preview of episode one.

Hello and welcome to Encounters. I'm Andy McGrillan.
And I'm Elle Scott. And this is a show that investigates that which is so frequently dismissed. I'm talking, of course, about UFOs.
UFOs indeed. And as the name suggests, we'll be deep diving into the most compelling UFO encounters history has to offer to figure out as best we can what it is we have been witnessing all these years.
But why are we doing this and why now? Well, whether you're new to ufology like me or more down the rabbit hole like Andy, we want you to be as clued up as you can be. And that way, if governments or agencies did ever feel the need to disclose what they know, well, we'll all be ready.
