NICK POPE
Author, journalist and TV personality NICK POPE is a much talked about figure in Ufology.  He served for 21 years in
the UK Ministry of Defense and from 1991 to 1994 ran their UFO project.  Initially skeptical, his research and
investigation into the UFO phenomenon and access to classified government files on the subject soon convinced him
that the phenomenon raised important defense and national security issues, especially when the witnesses were police
officers, military personnel or pilots, or where UFO's were tracked on radar.

But in keeping with Spotlight, we wanted to get away from the carefully crafted biography and get an insight into the real
Nick Pope.  With this in mind, we asked him to tell us ten things about himself that weren't generally known.  This is his
response:
1.  My paternal grandfather was general manager of The Times, arguably
the most famous newspaper in the world.

2.  My father was Deputy Chief Scientific Advisor at the Ministry of Defense.

3.  I grew up in a village called Rowledge.

4.  I was once engaged to the daughter of a high-ranking official at the
Pentagon.

5.  I have been to Kosovo once and Iraq twice.

6.  I was once asked to star in a porn film (I declined).

7.  The historical figure who I most admire is Field Marshal Lord Alanbrooke.

8.  My favorite food is curry.

9.  I love soccer and support Arsenal FC.

10.  My dream date would be Amy Winehouse.
