HISTORY™ goes in search of UFOs with Shaun Ryder

Former Happy Mondays front man, Shaun Ryder, is a fervent believer in extra-terrestrials. He claims to have seen a UFO at the age of 15 and has since attributed other out of body experiences to alien involvement.

In Shaun Ryder on UFOs he will explore the history of UFO sightings by travelling the world unpicking the fact from the fiction, and discovering just how close to our alien neighbours we actually are.

A road trip of epic proportions, Shaun’s quest for truth will lead him all over the globe, starting in the wormhole (a "shortcut" through space-time) in his Manchester back garden. He will visit the US, where over 4 million citizens believe they have been abducted by aliens, the Mayan ruins of Peru and Chile, explore aboriginal cave paintings of extra-terrestrials in Australia and much more.

“I’m delighted to be making this series! Once they see you, they keep an eye on you…”

The series is currently in production and will come to HISTORY later this year.
