There was a lot of irrelevant information about another video (the NASA footage taken four years earlier). It is not connected to this case, except in original research about the possible similarities between the objects. Furthermore, the second half of the article seems to contain unverified claims and original research - I was tempted to remove it, but I'll leave it with OR tags. Anyone got a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.65.138 (talk) 13:52, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
There is an article about the Bonsall UFO in the August 2001 edition of Fortean Times. It says the film is six and a half minutes long. The UFO is described thus: - ' The giant disc with a "bite" taken out of the bottom seemed to be expanding and contracting and made no sound. It had yellow, orange and blue lights, along with intricate markings and a dark circle in the centre. "It was huge and through the lens it looked as if it was going to hit me", said Mrs Rowlands. Towards the end of the tape, the craft moves to the right and emits pulses of light. It then flips over, showing two bright lights in the missing "bite" of the disc before disappearing in a red flash.'
The article goes on to claim that the footage was bought for £20,000 by Kiviat Productions.
The article lists the following sources: Matlock (Derbyshire) Mercury, 12+19 Oct 200, 25 Jan, 1+15 Feb, 19+26 April, 17 May; D.Mail, 9 Feb; Derby Eve. telegraph, 31 May; national dailies, 1 June 2001
