Aroview: The seminal serial (in six parts) by award-winning writer Nigel Kneale that laid the foundations of British Sci-Fi TV..

This first series sees professor Bernard Quatermass contending with his experimental spaceship returning to Earth with its sole surviving occupant contaminated by an alien virus. Successfully captivated a large audience by cleverly exploiting contemporary fears about space travel, while also breaking convention in terms of its 'realistic' live staging and special effects.

Only the first two episodes still exist..Scripts for the remaining four episodes are included as a special feature
