Mind The Gap, Professor Quatermass! (episode 52)
Manage episode 472471787 series 2923864
Discovery of a buried skull turns a London building site into a palaeontological dig. Until, in a geological layer that's five million years old, a bomb is found. Send for Professor Quatermass!
Quatermass and the Pit (1967) - aka Five Million Years to Earth in the US (1968) - is the best and most successful of the British science-fiction horror film series, based in turn on a TV series from a decade before. Colin and Phil examine it from all angles to see what makes it tick.
We also have a fiendish Q-uiz, and our usual round up of past, present and future SF recommendations.
