If I had to look at how badly Ufology in the UK treats CE3K cases then, excluding the books by British "New Ufologists" who have really contributed nothing in almost 40 years, then there are reports such as:
the 1954 Jessie Roestenberg case which is the earliest recorded and credible observation and thanks to John Hanson and the Haunted Skies project we at least have more than was originally knopwn AND we have video footage of Mrs Roestenberg -which should be getting used in UFO documentaries.
Hanson also interviewed the observers of the entity from Bradford, 1955?
There are a good few other reports that were basic book filler then dump the percipients. The Shamrock Cafe (1983) case -another that is basically ignored.
New Ufology decided from the outset that the whole business was to debunk but appear scientific and make various claims for why accounts were not real but psychological. We see cases where other percipients are ignored while one who has a history of possible "waking dreams" is concentrated on as that proves it was not real (yeah, those other percipients did not want to undergo hypnosis out of fear of what it might reveal so stuff them, right?).
The July, 1994 Silbury Hill CE3K has a numkber of elements that would see it tagged as High Strangeness yet what happened to Paul, Sonya and Rob that morning has only been covered to an extent in Andrew Collins' book Light Quest (2012).
The 1978 Elsie Oakensen encounter which, although there was only one percipient there was independent back up of UFOs at the same time. Hanson has interviewed Oakensen and it is interesting that, again, the only thing Ufologists could come up with was that it was "a hoax" even though they can produce no evidence of this.
We have High Strangeness cases in the UK that are mainly unknown to people in Ufology in the UK let alone outside of it. This is why these cases have to be recorded and John Hanson has done a great deal to achieve this.
Perhaps it needs an independent documentary company to do a series of short films?
