A series of real-life reported UFO sightings in Britain near an air base used by the U.S. Air Force will be the basis of a new drama series, “Rendlesham.” London-based producer Eleventh Hour Film will make the series and Sony’s international TV production arm has come on board. The studio is backing the development of the project and will handle international distribution. There is not yet a broadcaster or platform attached.

Playing out against the backdrop of the Cold War, the series will utilize a dual timeline structure: one set during the initial 1980 sighting; and the other in 2020, during the 40th anniversary of the incident. The focus of the story will be a local family; and how both the incident and the ramifications from it impacted them on perfect levels for decades.

I love what I've read of Vonnegut, but I'm not widely read and didn't know that!
Re Forsyth, I think you are right. I'm not sure what you mean about Bloodhounds? Could you explain, please?

In terms of the other things, I'll recap if that's helpful as my posts on it are spread out. Also, apologies as it's an obscure reference I guess, unless this information is useful to someone else, I think it's a dead end in my research.
It comes back to Nick Cook's book 'The Hunt For Zero Point' - he was a the senior aerospace editor at Jane's Defence, tracking down the F19 (117a) before it was unveiled. In the 1990s - whilst on the track of Aurora, he met with a mysterious whistleblower, scientist and alledged BAE engineer at RAF Bawdsey.
Dr David Marckus is claimed to be an alias of a scientist who worked at Bawdsey and a local University, who was a whistleblower for Nick Cook's book on Anti Gravity ' The Hunt For Zero Point. I initially thought that Dr Marckus was the author of Condign, as he talks of many of the same things. I did consider he might be fictional until recently. You can also find Dr Marckus in the writings of UK Environmentalist, Middle East Specialist and former Guardian Newspaper journalist Nafeez Ahmed.
He is also likely known to Graham Ennis, a popular UK Ufologist who organised events on Anti Gravity that Marcus likely attended in the early 2000s and a contact of Cooks (according to acknowledgements in 'Hunt For Zero Point').
Apart from those three people, you can't find out anything about him.
However, after David Clarke's revelations about the Condign author it is clear that Dr David Marckus is not the Condign author. I'm also not sure that Nafeez' Dr Marckus is the same as Nick Cook's Marckus although on his blog and in his books he seems to believe so.
