Quatermass and the Pit (BBC, 1958, 540p, soft Eng subs)
Andre Morell stars as Professor Quatermass in this classic sci-fi series, written by Nigel Kneale. Originally broadcast live by the BBC in 1958, the series made a big impression on the creators of Doctor Who, and has been cited as a major influence by author Stephen King and film director John Carpenter.
E01. The Halfmen
During excavation work at a building site in Hobbs Lane, London, workmen discover a skull and other fossilised bones. But are they really remains from a five million-year-old skeleton as claimed by Dr Roney, or something altogether more sinister? Meanwhile, Professor Quatermass, head of The Rocket Group, is resisting government plans to install missiles on the Moon, in a menacing project known as the Dead Man’s Deterrent.
E02. The Ghosts
Excavation work at a building site in Hobbs Lane, London, unearths fossilised bones and a strange projectile. Colonel Breen believes the projectile to be a bomb, but then terrifying manifestations begin.
E03. Imps and Demons
When Quatermass investigates the history of Hobbs Lane in Knightsbridge, he finds accounts dating back to medieval times about devils and ghosts, all centred on incidents where the ground was disturbed. Meanwhile, the team succeeds in opening a sealed compartment in the capsule.
E04. The Enchanted
Dr Roney and Quatermass develop their theory about the Martians' visit to Earth, whilst in the pit strange forces are conjured up.
E05. The Wild Hunt
A brain scanner reveals alien pictures in Barbara Judd's mind of 'the Wild Hunt' - the frenetic purging of the Martian hives. In the pit, a technician is killed as the capsule starts to glow.
E06. Hob
Chaos reigns in the pit and the long-dormant Martian inheritance begins to assert itself in many people in the area - including Quatermass himself - driving them to a new racial purge.
First broadcast: December 1958-January 1959
