Nice car lights...

Some great comments by the family:

'Ritchie's daughter Cara, 27, said: "It was really scary, I’m actually still scared just in case something happens; like the alien invasion in Mars Attacks.'

Love the fact they use Mars Attacks as a point of reference, as if it was a documentary.

If you look close enough you can kinda see the outline/shape of a disk. It has a very very slight red tinge on my monitor.
Can anyone enhance the video colours a bit and post a clearer version?

The Internet is playing with my emotions today. First I see people giving penguins that suffered the consequences of an oil spill little coats for warmth since their feathers were drenched which increased my faith in humanity.. now I see a 27 year old referencing "Mars Attack" like it's legitimate which has now diminished my faith. God dammit.

Civil Aviation Authority spokesman Richard Taylor, who has not seen the video, said: "We have no way of knowing what aircrafts were around that area at that time."  I SUPPOSE THAT MEANS COME-ON IN EVERYONE ALL ARE WELCOME !

I wonder why she kept going to back to bed. Cara's boyfriend sounds like a real winner hiding behind the door to grab a smoke.

Are there mountains in the direction of the lights?  Could the lights have been from vehicles, torches, fires etc on those mountains?

Amazing how many people confuse snide comments with thoughtful replies. Boneheads abound.

Mars Attacks was technically incorrect. The Aliens should have been grey. Apart from that quite accurate.

They are Department of Works and Pension drones.  Looking for benefits cheats out partying.

5 hours in the sky and no calls to the police?  Seems like they made this up.  Why wouldn't you call the police unless you wanted to cover up your hoax.
