Did a UFO crash in North Wales?
The tabloids dubbed it the Welsh roswell, or Roswelsh, but did an alien really lose his no claims bonus on a mountainside in north Wales? John swears he's well educated in all things alien, he’s seen at least 3 films on the subject matter and got a 10 out of 10 in a ‘How to tell if you’re an Alien’ quiz on facebook. The duo head out to investigate, test a Soviet geiger counter out in the rain, and all the stress ends up with Mike suffering a massive midlife crisis.

Are big cats on the loose in Britain?
Apparently the UK is over-run with lions, tigers, pumas and the like.

With permission from an eyewitness farmer in North Wales, the Unexplainers set up a big cat watch nerve centre, but will a trap set with offal and a trail camera reap rewards?
