- "Yes, the Space People refer to me as Mental Channel Number One."
Former taxi driver George King is interviewed by psychiatrist Dr Stafford Clark.
George's extraordinary story began when he claimed he was spoken to by the voice of the Interplanetary Parliament one Saturday morning while doing the dishes. He further claims to have been visited by UFOs and become a conduit for a psychic alien from Venus.
He then enters a trance so that the Venusian Aetherius can give Dr Clark a warning about mankind's future. Also present are a Cambridge astronomer and another psychiatrist. You can judge the nature of their reactions for yourself.
Clip taken from Lifeline: Mars and Venus Speak to Earth, originally broadcast on BBC Television, Thursday 21 May, 1959.

As he put the sunglasses on, I was expecting him to play a piano.
Love the way the alien speaks with a BBC accent of the period.😃
It is the accent our planet was familiar with from BBC Worldwide broadcasts.
@@giulioluzzardi7632 if they'd tapped into a radio Newcastle phone in, it could have been a different story. 'div'nt gan start any wars like '.
Well yeah, that’s just an effect of their universal translator.
Seems legit
Lol
Their cover up has been very well planned lol 🤣😂
Talking to aliens is perfectly normal, but being a taxi driver? That is just crazy!
Uber drivers are mainly aliens.
Still find it more entertaining than anything on the BBC today.
That's not a very high bar!
Also more credible.
Bloody Space People, coming over here!
t'kin our jerbs!
Turn back the flying saucers.
😂genius
What's wrong with nuclear weapons and being irradiated?! Bloody Space People, comin' over 'ere, changing the culture!
Stewart Lee ❤
'Mental Channel Number One': seems about right.
Lol you said it. "No1 Mental across the channel " is how I would have phrased it.
Exactly 10 years later, the Martians invented Cadbury's Smash!
Coincidence? 🤔
Good one.
..... HAAAAA HAAAAAAA HAAAAAA HAAAAAAAA 🏴... "" ALL MASH MAKES SMASH "" 0:14
August 1958 : the US carries out the first explosion of a nuclear device in outer space
May 1959 : man claims to be channelling people from Venus worried that humans are going to have a nuclear accident
Coincidence? I think not
It would have been great when he was asked where are you speaking from he said Uranus.
I was thinking that too and I'm sure this bloke is sooo tempted to actually say that . Watch it again. 1:10
😀😀...I think that would’ve been the last straw.
Venus was a popular pose up to the 1960's. Simply using a frame of reference that could be easier to understand. As real as anything you've ever experienced. Real or not, you 'll never know for certain😊 No wonder they go insane😊
Was this guy DB Cooper?
Rubbish. We all know that men are from Mars, and women are from Venus.
😂
🤣
And he’s from your anus!
As Earth is inbetween the two, did they all come here to mate?
2024 - Men are from Mars and Women have a Penis 🙄
Patrick Moore asked him a question in Norwegian when he was channelling. Sadly the space people don't understand Norwegian.
Ouch lol
@@DeletedProgramming George King came from an unconventional religious background, and his claims are a mix of spiritualism and pop sci-fi. I went to an Aetherius society meeting in the late 1970s, and it was a materialist spin on mediumship basically.
Does anybody?
Null points.
That's on mental channel two.
Since humans have a huge propensity for violence, our galactic neighbours best avoid us.
lol, humans are not particularly violent...just look at what we have achieved, from nothing!
If you think humans are violent wait until you meet the aliens…
As much I believe in the exisitence of UFO's/UAP's, I find it hard to not consider this man a 'loony'.
'You can't tell me if you're in a spaceship, or your normal abode?'
'Uh, noo.' 🤣
I'll have a pint of whatever he was drinking! 😂
I think it was lsd
@@dandare1001There y’are mate, £75,000 please. And best give your missus the keys this evening there’s a good lad.
This is a revelation
That various aliens chose this man, with a very boring voice, to be a conduit for them, and that vegetarians are not from this planet
Mental Channel No.1 indeed
R U SIRIUS!?
@@JJONNYREPP - Don't call me Sirius. 😄
@@analogueman123456787Comments on ‘1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive’ 1457pm 21.5.24 ok, i wont call you siris. wilhelm reich, neither... orgasms fending off and confusing aliens? now there's a thing... adios, old hag. p.s anyone been visited by an alien complaining about the number of orgasms - real or imagined, well met or half arsed - people are having due to a misguided belief they're not attractive enough to bed... ie: the great onan is on the march again...
This bloke is talking from Uranus 😁
@@misdangered4326 Comments on ‘1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive’ 0021am 23.5.24 he aint talking from any of my sphered of uranus...no sir. and how puerile is that cruddy jest? i enjoyed eccentrics, once over... now i find them a contrived chore... where once i saw liberty of thought and self expression.... i now see a gaping void desperately clinging on to some semblance of mystery... though there is no mystery, just large sun glasses and a clasping need to get laid or rooted..... he aint heavy he's just been spiked with too much bromide...
😀 I was at Glastonbury years ago one foggy night and me and my mate were on the Tor and we could hear all these people making "Baaa!" noises. I shouted out "You're not fooling us! We know your not real sheep." Five seconds later we were surrounded by a flock of sheep. OK, so I was wrong...
I was at Phoenix years ago, it was night. The Hari Krishnas were dancing and chanting 'Hari Krisna, Hari Krishna..'
Then they were surrounded by a bunch of pissed people chanting 'lager, lager, lager..'
@@mrstephenpariah "Baaa!"
This mans mind has shattered
10:04 Very impressed to discover our Alien overlords are still using imperial measurements and not that foreign ’metric’ rubbish! No doubt the bolts on their spaceships are inch and 5/8ths British Standard Whitworth thread which they purchase for the princely sum of four shillings and tuppence per box. 👌
As an American, I approve your message. Give me inches or give me death!
The guy that done similar on the Louis Theroux show was even better 😂😂😂
That's what I was thinking of 😂😂 he goes in with a level of commitment that can only be applauded.
Love everything about this - no doubt it will span many memes
This is brilliant.
I want those shades.
Aliens have arrived in flying cups. Their bases have already been established here.
1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive 0828am 21.5.24 he lost me at spiritual laws otherwise he was downright plausible in his "channeling"...
I envisage that more crockery will ensue !
@@lendus.adolla Comments on ‘1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive’ 1359pm 26.5.24 i had my crockery stolen and soem of my dvds and music. skant left... do you think you could send it my way...?
I had the same damn experience the other day
The most important part of this video is when Dr Stafford Clark starts speaking (11:27). What he says is profound and applicable to what's happening around us today.
Yes & I appreciate that this interview was conducted intelligently & without ridicule..
Given how religion has led to more destruction of human life and caused far more strife than science, I wonder if the anti-science, pro-religion message is really helpful.
He pronounced the “t” in rapport, indicating he reads words he may not say too often, especially to others, not himself. He talks to himself probably a little too much.
He was
working class , the interviewer was middle class. England had a rigid class system then.
Watching this in 1958: 😂
Watching this in 2024: 😳
As mad as a box of frogs!
I'm sure if he were alive today, he'd be adamant the Earth is flat and Elvis works down his chip shop. 😄
RIP Kirsty McColl.
He was a scientist.
Trippy.
Reminds me of the Zanfretta incident from Italy..
I would like to see all these accounts cobbled together as a tv series in either a documentary or a fictional show. I’m really fascinated by people who claim to have had visitations from extraterrestrial life.
1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive 0819am 21.5.24 i enjoy people with mases of whimsy to impart. this guy seems to have convinced himself that he has alien confidence to impart... i am hoping al my enemies are visited by these guys from venus to impart even more of their whimsy for me to listen to.... top notch stuff. was he stood on Todmorden moor when this happened?
Doctor Who
Star Trek.
@@user-hd9nc7zp1v Comments on ‘1959: SPOKESMAN for the SPACE PEOPLE | Lifeline | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive’ 0835am 21.5.24 looked like mr roper's brother dishing out the scouse jokes of butter and drumming........
There's a brilliant radio talk show from the 50s with several crackpots claiming to be aliens, from the future, etc. I added it to a playlist for when I play "Fallout". I'm going to add this video to it too!
@@primalconvoy there's one with Sir Patrick Moore and a guy who speaks Plutonian.
Groovy music at the end 😳
The astronomer and the two psychiatrists did not intervene at any point.
He’s the original David Icke
... Mr. D Icke
But can he play in goal…?
nigel Farage"s dad
David Icke’s dad.
What heard early on the contacts were authentic
Pass the pop corn ...
He Got the Title Right " Mental channel 1"
I am not sure but I really expected the voice would start of by saying, "Oh Miss Jones!, Miss Jones !" lol.
See also: Everything you know is wrong / Firesign Theatre (1975). Available on UA-cam.
Lemme put on my Outer Space Shades...
I find it difficult to believe that he was doing the dishes for a start.
7:20 " Ak ak ak ak ak " 🤣🤣🤣
Every Village has one 😂
Whew!
Remind me - this was _before_ LSD was illegal in the UK right?
Wow, I can't believe how believable this is 😂
Nothing revelled at all to suggest it’s genuine listening 60 odd years later.
I like how he says they came from Venus , just as we would say No 8 Blake Road.
and this is why i never do the washing up. I have no desire to be some extraterrestrial's personal conduit.
I’ll try that excuse too 😁
Right! Dammit I'm going to stop washing dishes right now! 😅
where can i get me some of those groovy sunglasses daddio 😎
ace .
He'd need a strong body to live on Venus!
Ever since I witnessed what Parkinson's and Lewy bodies dementia can do to the brain (hallucinations and delusions) I would never believe anybody to be anything but totally sincere in relating what they claim they can see and experience when I personally can not see anything. Not saying that this chap had either of those diseases but simply knowing what the brain is susceptible to and how capable it is of making us believe all sorts to be true has made me sympathetic to people like this gentleman even though I don't believe a word of it. He's certainly a source of fascination to me. He rarely stumbled over his words, maybe he was just an extremely good actor. Whatever he really was and really believed you can't get over the fact that he had got a point (although it's a shame religion had to raise it's ugly head)...'be nice to each other or Earth and mankind are buggered' Nuff said.
I think you mean Charles Bonnet syndrome. My late mother suffered this, hallucinations of people and animals roaming around the house. Doctors thought it could be associated with cataracts and dehydration. She was 88 when she passed.
It's just the usual psy-op nonsense. This was when the CIA went full re---- with the UFO schtick to cover up Cold War provocations.
My late father in law had Parkinson's and possibly Lewy bodies both of which can cause hallucinations and delusions. Looks like Charles Bonnet can happen with deterioration of sight and is not due to dementia. I'm no expert but George King doesn't look to be suffering from sight loss or dementia. Who knows what this man may have been suffering from. I don't believe he really experienced the things he talks about but he himself obviously believed it and what's more wanted to talk about it on TV. I have to say, the first thing I did was check the date of transmission in case it was an elaborate April fool! Turns out it was transmitted 9 days before I was born! Wonder if my mum watched it😉
Certainly a well spoken gentleman if he was delusional, but perhaps that was a result of the education and culture of the era.
Well, there's no disputing that.😉
He was chosen because his nostrils are meticulously cleaned every-day..as you can plainly see the messages for Mental channel no1 enter via the Nostrils.
The Truth is out there!
Quite possibly, just not with the geezer in this film clip! 😄
Yeah, happens quite bit.
Och it’s just sad to see this man who needs help.
I believe George King.
Sounds like a reverse avatar!
The only contact he made that day was with Uranus
It is likely the gentleman from Saturn is actually from one of the moons as it is a gas giant and the creature would not be able to swan about between planets
There was a rash of this type at the time....
One however, was taken seriously (for some reason) and Lord Hill Norton got involved .
Can't remember what made this one taken seriously, but it was something he shdntve known.
I read a transcript in one of Timothy Goods books.
This bloke though!?!
I wasn't convinced, until he got the goggles out!!
Magic mushrooms 💯🌝😁🌚🧝🧟💆👽👽👽👽👽👽
Was this the same guy trapped with Alan Partridge and those Irish showrunners.
These people sit next to me on the bus most days 😉
His mother should have taken off her dirty shoes before stepping into the 'flying saucer'
What on earth was she thinking ?
Haha man man . George King the physical being on his own .
The Venusians came to live in Surrey to learn English .
only in Britain
"Yes, I can demonstrate contacting spacemen, but first I need to eat this funny mushroom"
Years ago there was a guy on TV who was able to speak Venusian. It sounded convincing even though it was sheer gobbledegook
Very strange as i saw a flying saucer in 1974 and another in 1977, as this is from 1959 and the man has no reason to lie im inclined to believe him.
How his he keeping a staight face.
'Life' is pure consciousness with no mass. The/a physical body is a/the method that enables an individual soul (consciousness) to communicate in this physical plane at this time/space here on this planet. Without the constraint of a physical body, distance, time and physical 'living' (that is being alive) has no meaning you simply exist and it is infinite! You could be a bird or an insect or a tree or plant or fish or another mammal or what you think is an alien if you happen to be in a human form at the moment. Some of us know and some (most) do not!
Your not his son by any chance are you?
No, but I knew a good friend of Patrick Moore (C A Cross) who drew the first maps of Mars for NASA and there is indeed a crater on Mars named after him! This man I knew was very intelligent and was involved with the likes of Carl Sagan and was a member of the Interplanetary Association. I was a young boy when I knew him though he never said anything to me I felt he knew a lot more than he let on. He died in his mid 50's!? I have a few of his papers and he was involved with Jodrell Bank and Bernard Lovel etc etc. The chap featured here is probably barking mad but may be trying to tell us things without actually saying it. Those that know are not allowed to tell. Watch some of professor Simon on this site especially his current stuff.
8:14 Niew. Definitely niew 😂😂😂😂
Should have gone to space savers!
Oh dear oh dear 🙄
The point is the message/warning this man claims to be delivering to humanity.
Knowing that his own concerns about the atom bomb wouldn't be listened to he invented a "higher authority."
Ufos have long been documented to take an interest in our nuclear capabilities. They're drawn to nuclear energy. What he said has been supported by decades of sightings by trained military observers from Rendelsham to Malmstrom to Holloman Air Force Base and many more.
"Dessine-moi un mouton!"
9:00 Is that the psychiatrist?
I think the aliens must have been watching the BBC as they seem to have developed the clipped RP English of that time... 🤔
I met a man with a green tint the other day . Maybe he was one of these people .
Thee eplenet avenus 👽.
In my opinion this was sincere, the history and species proliferation throughout are galaxy is huge and extensive and has been so for billions of years. We are the new kids on the block!
People from Saturn turned out to be gassy. The Venus people are hot.
😶
It was just tte Matrix is asking for him back. 😁
I clicked on this as I thought it was DB Cooper. This guy is awesome he is either pulling a massive wind up in which case he has balls of steel a couple of times he looks like he might start laughing. If he believes what he’s saying - then FairPlay, driving a taxi is probably really boring so why not make things more interesting - you only live once. Plus his sunglasses are super dope. Legend.
I drive a cab & it's far from dull believe me.
Na noo! na noo!
The 'man' he claims to have met had no pupils, was broad in stature, and had very small feet but very big hands. Sadly, he was so top-heavy and blind he could not stand. Given his mother had met these extraterrestrials, it's a shame DNA profiling wasn't available at the time of this interview (the interviewee clearly has pupils but, suspiciously, we gain only the briefest glimpse of his hands and not even a flash of his feet)! BTW, the alien 'Sirius' clearly learned English via the BBC World Service of the 1950s - he sounds more upper class than the Royal Family!
I think I met this guy before, yes he was there & I was here, Im supposed to say something.........everything that has a begnining has an end Neo. Wait that is not right.
This is quantum entanglement!
They're all from bloody Venus🤣👽
Of course he's making the whole thing up,body language doesn't lie.
Cretin
Sad little man.
Interesting that their planet Venus has the same name appointed to it by the earthlings. What a coinky dink! 👽🛸
Still more believable than bob lazar
