Thanks for the tip about the Neck And Neck album, I'll endeavour to seek it out sometime.
Returning to The Invaders, as far as I can recall the only WW2 plane featured in the show was the Douglas DC3 Dakota in THE IVY CURTAIN - another lovely old beast!
Where is Richard Ingram?
Buenos dias Turi
I sent him an e-mail last night. I'll let you all know if and when I receive his reply.
Buenos Días Phil
Your answer worries me. I hope that there is nothing wrong with his health or his family. Turi
Hi to Phil and everyone The car is a Mustang GT, probably a 68. It only appears at the beginning, and I located it via a scan of the episode parts on YouTube. I recommend to all who are in the US or have access to a good library the book-Ultimate Car Spotter's Guide 1946-1969 by Tad Burness. It has a good breakdown of models with production figures and prices. For people interested in the period of The Invaders and older American cars, it is well worth a look. It seems, however, that David Vincent tends to drive a larger Ford, such as a Galaxie or perhaps a Fairlane. Much more appealing for the times were the smaller Fords, the Falcon and the Mustang. Best wishes to all.
Hi,

Hi guys
I'm trying to identify a prop said to have been used in the series. Here is a link to the photo:
http://www.wackychimp.com/uploads/mysteryitem.jpg
It's about the size of a hand-held microphone with drilled holes in the clear acrylic tip to capture light from the hidden bulb inside (what could have been more effectively achieved with fiber optics a decade later, lol).
If anyone can help with episode information, a video clip, and of course a definitive ID of this prop (was it a weapon? scanner? probe? part of a larger device), I'd be very grateful!
Thanks,
Joey

Hi Joey
Sorry, I don't recognise it at all - certainly no resemblance to any of the aliens' hand-held weapons. Probably part of a larger device, though I'm not at all sure.
The only way I'd be able to help is to watch every episode while specifically looking-out for it - and I'm not about to do that. However, I'm sure one or two of our much more observant and eagle-eyed colleagues on this forum will be able to spot it...
Hi Joey,
Sorry, but ... it's a joke? Are you sure you're not in a wrong forum?
No, not a gag, I swear - just trying to solve a little mystery:

Thanks for the feedback - guess I'll have to watch all the YouTube episodes...
Cheers!
...hallo and thanks man.
What's going on with our chat?
... was burning up.
is possible ...
Was watching the 'mutation' episode earlier.
At the start you see David stumbling through the stifling hot Mexican desert sun, when he comes across the crippled alien ship. How did he get back to the town (Rosario), as he couldn't have gone much further at that point?
Did the aliens give him a lift back..... ;o)
Maybe seeing the alien saucer gave him superhuman strength to be able to make it back to town with a great determination! Lindsay.
I was really glad when they brought out the Invaders on DVD. I watched the original in 1967 & 1968. I had almost given up hope of ever seeing it again. I don't understand why it isn't replayed in the USA. But a lot of Quinn Martin things aren't replayed.
I keep hoping that one day a new series of The Invaders will be made.
David Vincent as a modern-day Edgar Scoville.
Hi Ian, also Lindsay
Having participated on this forum on and off for five years I'm sure Lindsay, Stan, MarkyMark, Jamie and others I recall from my earliest postings will agree with me that most recent topics have surfaced more than once during that time.
However, I cannot once recall any previous mention of Ian's observation regarding David Vincent's miraculous arrival in Rosario after being left for dead by the two robbers and happening-upon the disabled alien saucer. Well done Ian!
I can offer no explanation other than to concur with Lindsay, that seeing the saucer gave Vincent 'second wind'. Though utterly implausible of course, and definitely a glaring shortcoming in the plot...
Hi Ian
Nice thought - that sounds about the right role for Roy Thinnes, should the series make a comeback in his lifetime.
The last I heard a year or so ago was that James Finch was campaigning heavily for either a series revival or big-screen film spin-off. Though more in hope than anticipation, I may e-mail him sometime to find out if he's making any headway - watch this space...

Hi Phil,
I went to see spoof rockers 'Spinal Tap' on Tuesday and guess who their special guest was?...no,not Roy Thinnes...KEITH EMERSON!
Just thought you might like to know.
As far as a new series of The Invaders is concerned, well, i'd like one....very much....with Roy Thinnes in it....as David Vincent....again!
