A new documentary focused on the royal family's interest in the paranormal and UFOs tells the story of how the Duke of Edinburgh - who died in 2021 aged 99 - was due to discuss "saving the planet" with an alleged other-worldly being, but it is now believed he would have actually sat down with a Russian spy if the meeting had gone ahead.
Information about 'The King Of UFOs' states: "The film looks at the interest that the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip had in UFOs and crop circles. It delves into an episode where Prince Phillip was due to meet an alleged alien called Janus at a flat in Chelsea.
"This Janus had already met with Phillip's equerry Sir Peter Horsley and he wanted to pass on information about saving the planet to Phillip.
"The meeting never took place and it is most likely that this Janus character was actually a Russian Spy."
And the documentary also sees historian Richard Felix speculate Philip's wife, the late Queen Elizabeth, wanted to study secret Vatican documents to find out more about UFOs.
Richard said: "The Queen has alleged to have requested documents from the Vatican Secret Archives. The Vatican headquarters of the Catholic church as a well-known secret archive where documents go back thousands of years possibly, detailing the origins of Christianity and such like. But also there's this allegations that they're holding the truth about the UFO phenomena.
"53 miles of corridors full of secret documents and items including skulls of extraterrestrials down in the cellars of the Vatican and various other things. In other words, they are into, although they believe the world to be 6,400 years old, they are into aliens. They've got an observatory in Arizona. They have an observatory at the Pope's Summer palace in Rome.
"The Vatican always had an interest in UFOs. It's got his own Cardinal and Monsignors appointed to deal with first contact with extraterrestrials. So it's always had an act of interest. So maybe that's because they know more.
"There is some speculation that they were privy to a UFO landing in Sicily in the Second World War and Mussolini recovered this. So some say they actually may have a UFO.
"And of course an orange saucer shaped ship craft has been seen on more than one occasion hovering over the Vatican. There is even talk that the pope is an alien. "
