S2. EP4: Flight BA5061

The Inspectre team take their first steps into the world of UFOs and investigate the 30 year case of Flight BA5061 - an inbound British Airways flight that had a very close call with a unidentified flying object - high above the Pennine Mountain range, one dark evening in January 1995.

This episode also explores some of the other rather strange sightings seen around Manchester Airport over the years - including the rise of one unforgettable shaped object in particular - the floating "Christmas Tree".

Joining Tom this week and providing their opinions and expertise are Ufologist Ash Ellis, Chief Sceptic Tom Paech and Resident Historian Eli Lycett The Local Mythstorian.
