Doctor Who: The Ark in Space (1975)

> Homo sapiens! What an inventive, invincible species! It's only been a few million years since they crawled up out of the mud and learned to walk. Puny, defenseless bipeds. They've survived flood, famine and plague. They've survived cosmic wars and holocausts. And now, here they are, out among the stars, waiting to begin a new life. Ready to outsit eternity. They're indomitable... indomitable. Very good, you can clearly see Riddley Scott was inspired by this to create "Alien". This story also proves that with a great script and great perfomances, the terrible special effects can be ignored. Watched Aug 20, 2015
