A video of strange orange lights in the skies above Shropshire and Mid Wales has become a hot topic on YouTube.


The video entitled “Orange UFO on the Shropshire/Wales border” was filmed on May 1 and appears to have been shot in the early evening.


Phil Hoyle, from the Shrewsbury-based UFO Investigation and Research Unit, says the lights did not appear to be Chinese lanterns and claimed they could not be explained.
