      Red alert. SID (the Space Intruder Detector) in orbit on the opposite side of the moon, has confirmed that a UFO is flying towards Earth. Three interceptors are immediately launched, then SID’s prediction, "UFO on collision course", is tragically followed by one of the interceptors being destroyed and the UFO getting through outer defences.

      Episode 21, "The Computer Affair": Can a computer identify love? The death of an astronaut when intercepting a UFO has strange implications ...
      Red alert. SID (the Space Intruder Detector) in orbit on the opposite side of the moon, has confirmed that a UFO is flying towards Earth. Three interceptors are immediately launched, then SID’s prediction, "UFO on collision course", is tragically followed by one of the interceptors being destroyed and the UFO getting through outer defences.
      Gay Ellis (Gabrielle Drake), of Moonbase Control, is suspected of having made a wrong judgement when issuing evasive instructions and is ordered to report to Commander Straker (Ed Bishop) at SHADO headquarters, together with the two surviving interceptor pilots, Mark Bradley (Harry Baird) and Lew Waterman (Gary Myers).
      They are psychoanalysed and the reports fed into a computer which comes up with the astonishing verdict that both Mark Bradley and Gay Ellis show abnormal emotional counts, and also that Gay is showing an ultra-excessive stress factor. The inference is that they’re in love and that Gay’s misjudgement was caused by worry over Mark’s safety.
      Neither Mark nor Gay will believe it, and Col. Freeman (George Sewell) tells them he can do nothing to help them unless they can disprove the computer’s findings. Meanwhile, they are to be given separate postings.
      Freeman is assigned to lead the search for the UFO, which is reported to have landed in Northern Canada. Gay goes with him in command of Mobile Control … and finds that she has to prove to herself, in dramatic circumstances, whether or not the computer’s findings have any basis in fact. It means risking Mark’s life. Knowing the truth, which only the computer has spotted, means that they have to work things out for themselves ...

      Out-of-this-world action and suspense in orbit as Earth's defence organisation comes under threat from aliens. At Moonbase Control, the defence team wages a spectacular battle with alien invaders, explores mysteries of the universe, discovers computer love affairs and encounters dying extra-terrestrials who need human organs for survival. One of the best of its genre, UFO combines the remarkable talents of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson with those of special effects director Derek Meddings. With a stellar cast including Ed Bishop, Michael Billington and George Sewell. ARD-alpha presents this british pioneer SciFi-Series in the original English version.
