Description
UFOs and alien abductions: Serious defence and national security issues at stake, or intriguing phenomena with their roots in psychology and belief?
Professor Chris French and Nick Pope square up to each other in a head-to-head debate with a difference. Because we like to be a little bit controversial (and we thought it would be fun), we have them swap roles and argue each other’s case. Will Chris French convince you that ET really is visiting us on a regular basis? Or will Nick Pope persuade you that psychological factors can account for such claims?
