Exploring Space: 1999 by John Kenneth Muir Pdf

Starring internationally renowned actors Martin Landau, Barbara Bain, Barry Morse and Catherine Schell, the British–made Space: 1999 was the only truly original space adventure of the mid–1970s. Sandwiched between the demise of the original Star Trek and the opening of the Stars Wars series on the big screen, Space: 1999 featured a richly-visualized world where space was terrifying and mysterious, where not all problems were solvable by technology and the space travelers were very human. From the science fiction show’s conception in 1973 to its cancellation in 1977, this reference work covers each of the 48 episodes in depth, including a full plot synopsis, writer, director, guest star credits, and critical commentary that examines both the episode and other shows that have used similar plotlines. The popularity of Space: 1999 memorabilia and its many fan clubs are fully discussed, along with the possibility of a future movie or reunion show that would tie up the loose ends caused by the show’s abrupt cancellation.

The British Television Pilot Episodes Research Guide 1936-2015 by Christopher Perry Pdf

A new idea can become an expensive flop for TV executives. So from the earliest days of television, the concept of a pilot episode seemed like a good idea. Trying out new actors; new situations and new concepts before making a series was good economical sense. It was also tax deductible. Sometimes these pilots were shown on television; sometimes they were so awful they were hidden from sight in archives; and sometimes they were excellent one-offs, but a series seemed elusive and never materialised. Chris Perry has always been fascinated by the pilot episode. So many pilots are made annually, but never seen by audiences. Only a handful appear on screen. It's a hidden world of comedy, variety, drama and factual programming. This volume attempts to lift the lid on the world of the TV pilot by revealing the many transmitted and untransmitted episodes made through the decades.

Gerry Anderson's UFO by Chris Bentley Pdf

Meticulous research and painstaking attention to detail have gone into these multiangle views and cutaways. Skydiver, the futuristic gull-wing cars, the SHADO interceptors, the Space Intruder Detector, and installations such as SHADO's Moonbase complex have never looked so exciting or so realistic. Nick Foreman's CGI illustrations--the first time this technique has been used in an official Gerry Anderson book--are accompanied by detailed notes on design, specification, and performance. Following in the footsteps of "The Complete Book of Gerry Anderson's UFO," this book will be a must-have purchase for all true Anderson fans.
