Last year news surfaced about Shaun Ryder's involvement in a new program titled Shaun Ryder on UFOs. The series, which airs on History next year, follows Ryder around the globe searching for UFOs, exploring the history of UFO sightings, and sorting out fact from fiction. According to a new interview with NME, Ryder has been interested in UFOs since childhood and was interested in participating in the show to help give UFOlogists somewhat of a better image:
"The thing is, right, a lot of UFOlogists, are fucking up it mate, they’re fucking proper, proper up it, and they give it a bad name," says Ryder. "You know, some are not UFOlogists, just fucking raving bonkers, you know, they’re just absolute knobheads. Then you’ve got some that are really smart and intellectual, and you’ve got real scientists as well."
Shaun Ryder on UFOs premieres on History in the U.K. in 2013 (premiere date TBA) and we HOPE this manages to get picked up in America. PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN! Read more about the program over at History.
“I’m delighted to be making this series! Once they see you, they keep an eye on you…” Shaun Ryder
