The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has appealed for calm after a UFO was spotted over Woodford Green.
Two residents have contacted the Guardian saying they saw a strange object flying through the sky last weekend above the Winston Churchill statue on Woodford Green.
MoD spokeswoman Susan Coulthard said: "It's certainly common that people see something they don't understand.
"There are many possible explanantions for such sightings, whether it is aircraft, ballons or other similar objects."
She added: "Do people living in Woodford need to be worried? No they do not."
But construction worker Darrell Greenway, 19, told the Guardian he is convinced by what he saw, and said he fears it could indicate an alien invasion is about to happen.

..."Darrell Greenway... fears it could indicate an alien invasion is about to happen."
As for the MoD guy..."There are many possible explanantions for such sightings, whether it is aircraft, ballons or other similar objects..."
Well yeah, they're craft and they're certainly in the air. Balloons that can maneuvre better than jets? Hmm, methinks the MoD is talking through his a**!
