Title: Quatermass and the Pit
Post by Mikej on Oct 15^th, 2010, 2:05pm

Just found the whole of the 1955/6 original here http://www.archive.org/

Brings back so many memories of being (or not) allowed to watch these in my very young(ish) years.

Superb qulaity. Not sure where they were sourced from as It must have been pre-VT and no sign of FR scratches etc.

Was this made at Riverside? I keep trying to see difference in location shots but can't see any joins.

A bit OT but this is brilliant as well http://www.archive.org/details/journey_by_a_london_bus_TNA

Off to watch some more and remember the Goon Show parody of Quatermass where they found the cylinder and when it opened, there was a train guard saying "minador" (mind the doors!)
