Back in the early 80's I saw a TV episode of what I think was Project UFO, but I have recently had reason to doubt this.
The episode involved a family or young couple seeing a massive UFO that was piloted by horse-headed beings. Investigations were launched into the evidence that included power lines being damaged, but nothing came of it as usual. But at the end of the episode, a workman on the power lines found an oval metal necklace. Engraved on the necklace was the head of a horse. But as he climbs down, it drops from his pocket, thereby losing the only real piece of evidence that a UFO had been there.
Does anyone know this episode, and is it from Project UFO? If not, which series is it from? This same series had a number of other fun episodes, including a huge shadowy UFO that emitted strange ticking noises.
Project UFO did have an episode with horse-headed aliens wearing medallions. It was the 25th ep: The Whitman Tower Incident Aired July 12, 1979.
There was also a short-lived TV series called The Lost Saucer that ran for a season in the mid-'70's. It had a character called a "Dorse" that was a horse-headed half dog half horse.
Thank you, Newt. I guess it has to be a Project UFO episode. I saw this many years ago on Australian TV, and only came across Project UFO when it was screened on Australian Foxtel pay tv in the 90's. I thought that it might not be Project UFO as the episodes I saw on Foxtel didn't match the 'feel' that I remembered from my childhood. But now I see that it was right at the end of the second season, which might explain the difference in feel.
Thank you for helping me solve a childhood mystery! I loved that show as a kid. :cheers:
