The Quatermass Experiment (BBC, 1953)
"One morning, two hours after dawn, the first manned rocket in the history of the world takes off from the Tarooma range, Australia. The three observers see on their scanning screens a quickly receding Earth. The rocket is guided from the ground by remote control as they rise through the ozone layer, the stratosphere, the ionosphere, beyond the air. They are to reach a height of 1,500 miles above the Earth and there learn...what is to be learnt.
For an experiment is an operation designed to discover some unknown truth. It is also a risk..."

Join the Grue-Crew for a very special episode featuring a review of the 1954 BBC TV presentation of Nineteen Eighty-Four (originally an episode of BBC Sunday-Night Theatre) starring Peter Cushing in a break-out role alongside André Morell, Yvonne Mitchell, and Donald Pleasence. The original presentation on December 12, 1954, was controversial and unrecorded. Thankfully for genre fans and Peter Cushing fans alike, BBC programmed a second live show on December 16 which was recorded and remains available today. Check out what the Grue-Crew have to say about this slice of British television history. Let’s just say they were gobsmacked.
At the time of this writing, Nineteen Eighty-Four is available to stream from the Classic Sci-Fi Movie Channel and is available as a Blu-ray disc (Playback Region B/2) from BFI.
Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror: The Classic Era records a new episode every two weeks.

Quatermass II (BBC, 1955)
"Enemy territory ahead. Hard, unwinking stars. No atmosphere to deceive us. We're seeing them as they really are. And somewhere ahead... an object. Constructed, if it is constructed, by creatures whose very existence makes us fools. Somewhere. Boneless creatures able to make energy at will by changing their mass; able to transmit experience; to maintain power over other creatures."

QUILL&PAD: The Sense And Non-Sense Of Watches In Movies Starring Cartier, Seiko, Bremont, Omega, And More
There was a time when viewers didn’t consciously pay that much attention to what kind of wristwatch movie characters wore.
This often meant that actors wore their personal watches on set, sometimes even when it didn’t suit the movie. Rudolph Valentino refused to take off his beloved Cartier Tank even when he played the title role in The Sheik, a movie set in a time before the wristwatch even existed!
