Tonight I left work after completing my shift and caught some rather odd phenomena in the sky. I was walking down Lambeth Road towards Elephant &
Castle and captured this on video:
I was using my iPhone to record these strange lights and could not carry on filming because I had people walking up and down the road looking at me as
if I was completely nuts. Some of them did look up in the sky, most were tourists and they were also surprised.
Where I work I am able to see above most of London and when I went out for my last break to have a cigarette there were no strobe lighting shows.
Also, if any of these shows are taking place due to where I work and what I do we are always informed of everything to do with them shows.
I have no idea what this is but it freaked me out and when I stopped filming and walked on one of the lights appeared to go in a straight line further
down the road. If this was strobe lighting surely the lights would keep the same pattern.
Its a searchlight display, they have them on the top of nightclubs and at festivals etc. They reflect off the clouds and are usually computer
controlled to make nice interesting patterns.

A couple of years ago Eddie Izzard was doing a show in the Armadillo in Glasgow and I could see the searchlights in Denniston (good few miles away).
That's pretty much what it looked like. It made television and radio all over Scotland. Eddie Izzard left a comment on Radio Scotland's website
saying "I come in Peace" He has not been found to be a UFO to this day.
