Description
On Saturday 26 November 1977 at around 5.10 pm the TV transmitter of the ITV Station Southern Television was hi-jacked for 6 minutes by someone who claimed to be an alien from Vrillon. Although this action, which is known as Southern Television broadcast interruption, was surely not a work of an alien, its origin was never cleared.
