Mission to the Unknown

Mission to the Unknown

We open on a loud and hostile sounding jungle.

The man from last time rises to his feet, pulls a gun out and repeats "I must kill!"

Meanwhile two men try to repair a crashed spaceship.

CORY: I hate to think what kind of an animal makes a noise like that.
LOWERY: Yeah, they're getting closer.
CORY: Yes, all the more reason to stop talking and get on with the job.
LOWERY: Just you listen to me, Cory. I know my orders were to let you have full reign, and you've certainly taken advantage of that, but as Captain of this expedition, my first responsibility is to get this ship off the ground. So just cut the chat. Some other time, hmm? Bring that wrench.

Worried captain Lowery and his passenger Marc Cory. It's Edward de Souza. Did you see him in Sapphire and Steel? Very good actor, very good at creepy. Just from the intonation alone you can tell Cory is a dangerous man to be around.

Galaxy 4 (part 1)

Oh eck, we're back in the world of recons.

The TARDIS lands on a planet. We get a snippet of a great camera shot tracking from the console to a worried Doctor. Who directed this? Derek Martinus! Oh hell, this would have looked sublime, he was a great visual director.

The Doctor worries about the atmosphere. Somethings up.

DOCTOR: Well, the atmospheric pressure's quite normal. Oxygen, temperature, radiation. It's all quite normal. I wonder. Hmm. I wonder if it's possible to have a planet so obviously conducive to life and yet without any?

That'll be it!

Steven offers to go for a swim, and the Doctor tells him off for not being scientific minded, which suggests this is written by someone who isn't a regular viewer of Dr Who.
