Via SHADO Moonbase UFO

Ran 1970-1971, set in 1980. Silver was the rage a la Edie Sedgwick. . .

And, for a bit of totally useless trivia, the actress who played the moonbase girl in this clip from UFO was Gabrielle Drake, sister of Nick Drake, the semi-obscure but very cool and influental guitarist who died of an antidepressant overdose in 1974. (He's the guy that did the "Pink Moon" song in the famous Volkswagen commercial...)

I had a Viewmaster of this show but didn't get to see it until it re-ran on The Sci Fi Channel in the '90s. It's frightening how long ago that was.

That's too good to be true. Pre-empted the Betty Boo circa 1990 look by 20 years...
