32 Hollywood Hitmen (Cover Story)
Black helicopters, underground bases, laser weapons, and the mysterious death of Arnold Schwarzenegger's screenwriter. Mathew Alford and Robbie Graham ask what really happened to Gary Devore.
44 All Fall Down
Thirty years ago, chaos interrupted the picture-postcard scene of a rural English fete. The mass collapse of nearly 300 young musicians at Hollinwell became one of the most controversial examples of 'mass hysteria' in Britain. Bob Rickard re-visits his clippings file of the event and its aftermath, and ventures - with hindsight - to reconstruct what really happened.
50 Return to the Lake of Seven Peaks
In 2009, Richard Freeman, as part of a team of intrepid adventurers, made his way back to the lake of Gunung Tuju in Sumatra in search of that elusive cryptid the orang-pendek - and this time, they saw one!
