title: The Ghosts

overview: Uncovered, they discover that the interior of the object is empty, and a symbol consisting of five intersecting circles, which Roney identifies as the occult pentagram, is found etched on an interior wall which appears to hide an inner chamber.

title: The Ghosts

title: The Ghosts (Los Fantasmas)

overview: El coronel Breen cree que el proyectil es una bomba: es frío al tacto, ligeramente radiactivo y está hecho de una sustancia desconocida. Mientras tanto, la asistente de Roney, Barbara Judd, descubre que la zona tiene una historia de eventos sobrenaturales, y un aterrorizado soldado West afirma haber visto un demonio que "¡Pasó por la pared!"

title: The Ghosts

overview: L'étrange capsule est sortie de terre, et Breen annonce qu'il s'agit d'une fusée V Allemande. Elle est constitué d'une substance inconnue, faiblement radioactive et froide au toucher. L'aide de Roney, Barbara Judd, découvre une histoire concernant des évènements surnaturels qui se seraient produits à Hobbs Lane. Celle-ci intéresse grandement le Professeur Quatermass. Un homme qui travaille dans la capsule, est terrifié par l'apparition d'un fantôme ressemblant à un diablotin, qu'il dit avoir vu.

title: Imp & Demons

overview:
The shell of the object is so hard that even a borazon drill makes no impression, and when the attempt is made, strange vibrations cause severe distress in the people around the object. Quatermass interviews the local residents and discovers that sightings of ghosts and other poltergeist activity have been common in the area for decades. Meanwhile, a soldier is carried out of the object in hysterics — he claims to have seen a dwarf-like apparition walk through the wall of the artefact, a description which matches a 1927 newspaper account of a ghost sighting.

Following the drilling attempt, a hole has somehow opened up in the wall which allows Quatermass and the others access to the interior chamber.

title: Imp & Demons

title: Imp & Demons (Diablillos y Demonios)

overview: El periodista James Fullalove ayuda a Quatermass a investigar la historia de Hobbs Lane, encontrando que su nombre deriva de Hob - el diablo. Mientras tanto, el técnico Sladden logra abrir un compartimento sellado en la cápsula, que aloja tres insectos alienígenas petrificados.

character: James Fullalove

character: Sladden

character: News Editor

title: The Enchanted

overview: Following the drilling attempt, a hole has somehow opened up in the wall which allows Quatermass and the others access to the interior chamber. There they find the remains of insect-like aliens resembling giant three-legged locusts, with stubby antennae on their heads giving the impression of horns. As Quatermass and Roney examine the remains, they theorise that the aliens might have come from a nearby planet which was habitable five million years ago — Mars.

title: The Enchanted

title: The Encahnted (El Embrujo)

overview: Roney y Quatermass elaboran una teoría sobre la visita de los marcianos a la Tierra, sosteniendo que al llegar a nuestro planeta ellos inculcaron su esencia en los ancestros del hombre.  Y Sladden, solo en la fosa, debe huir aterrorizado cuando extrañas fuerzas se conjuran…

title: The Enchanted

overview: Roney et Quatermass émettent la théorie que les aliens étaient des Martiens qui eurent kidnappé des humains pour réaliser des expériences, et qui se sont écrasés en les ramenant sur Terre. Cette nuit-là Sladden travaille seul dans le puit et d'étranges forces se réveillent, le terrorisant et l'obligeant à s'enfuir de peur.

character: Private Secretary

character: Minister

character: Vicar

title: The Wild Hunt

overview: Quatermass plans to use an invention of Roney's, an "optic-encephalogram", to see these visions. The device will record impressions from the optical centres of the brain, in effect showing whatever the subject is seeing, hallucinatory or not. He wears the device and goes into the craft, but it is Roney's assistant, Barbara Judd, who is affected most. Placing the device on her, they record what she "sees"—a violent, bloody purge of the Martian hive, to root out unwanted mutations.

title: The Wild Hunt

title: The Wild Hunt (La Cacería Salvaje)

overview: Un escáner cerebral revela, en la mente de Barbara Judd, las imágenes alienígenas de 'una caza salvaje' -una purga frenética en las colmenas marcianas. En la fosa, un técnico muere cuando la cápsula comienza a brillar.

title: The Wild Hunt

overview: En utilisant un scanner, des images des aliens sont aperçues dans l'esprit de Barbara alors qu'elle travaille dans la capsule. Breen prend ceci pour un canular et propose une télédiffusion du puit pour montrer l'inoffensive capsule. Un électricien est tué, et la capsule commence à bouger et à vivre.

title: Hob

overview: Despite his warnings, the media event occurs, and the power cables that string into the craft fully activate it for the first time. Glowing and humming like a living thing, it starts drawing upon this energy source and awakening the ancient racial programming. Those people of London in whom the alien admixture remains strong fall under the ship's influence; they merge into a group mind and begin a telekinetic mass murder of those without the alien genes, an 'ethnic cleansing' of those that the alien race mind considers impure and weak.

title: Hob

title: Hob (El Diablo)

overview: El caos reina en la fosa cuando la herencia marciana, largo tiempo dormida, comienza a imponerse en muchas personas del lugar - incluyendo al propio Quatermass - llevándolas a cometer nueva purga racial, La cápsula se abre y una forma de energía se eleva sobre Londres.

Kōhaku Uta Gassen, more commonly known as simply Kōhaku, is an annual music show on New Year's Eve produced by Japanese public broadcaster NHK and broadcast on television and radio, nationally and internationally by NHK's networks and some overseas broadcasters which bought the program. The show ends shortly before midnight.

Literally "Red and White Song Battle," the program divides the most popular music artists of the year into competing teams of red and white. The "red" team or akagumi is composed of all female artists, while the "white" team or shirogumi is all male. The honor of performing on Kōhaku is strictly by invitation, so only the most successful singing acts in the Japanese entertainment industry can perform. In addition to the actual music performances, the costumes, hair-styles, makeup, dancing, and lighting are important. Even today, a performance on Kōhaku is said to be a big highlight in a singer's career because of the show's large reach.

overview: Big Cook, Little Cook is a t.v. series for nursery school-aged children broadcast on BBC television channels. The programme is set in the kitchen of a café, with two main characters, Big Cook Ben and Little Cook Small. Ben is a full-sized adult, but Small is only a few inches tall and flies on a wooden spoon. The format of a programme generally includes a visit to the café by a nursery rhyme or fairy tale character. Little Cook tells a story about the visitor in which he’s the real hero, and then they decide to cook the visitor a meal from Big Cook's recipe book. Little Cook will then fly away on his magic spoon to see where one of the ingredients is made. Activities within the kitchen, such as washing up and tidying up, are accompanied by catchy song and dance routines. Both cooks act in a way to encourage children to take an interest in cooking. Big Cook does most of the cooking and tells the viewers how to make the recipes; Little Cook does some preparation or sets the timer.

title: Marlo and the Magic Movie Machine

overview:
Marlo and the Magic Movie Machine was a children's television show originating from WFSB-TV in Hartford. The storyline involved Marlo Higgins who is a mustachioed and frizzy-haired computer programming genius working for the L. Dullo computer company. He was banished to the "sub-sub-basement" by his boss, Leo Dullo. By day Marlo works for L. Dullo. At night he builds, programs, and interacts with his Magic Movie Machine built using L. Dullo hardware. The waveform from a real-time audio oscilloscope was displayed on the Magic Movie Machine's screen whenever it talked and it played short clips. The two traded tips and quips.

Marlo sat at a console with a slight resemblance to master control consoles of the time. He would call up the various film clips featured on the show by entering codes using a numeric keypad with round, yellow number buttons and pressing an orange rectangular Start button to start the selected film. In earlier episodes, a split-flap display mounted on the console showed the code entered on the keypad. In later episodes, this was changed to an LED display, and the buttons were made to sound like the DTMF tones made by a touch-tone telephone as Marlo pressed them. Most of the time, Marlo used a small keypad consisting of two columns of buttons flanking a CRT, located in front of him when he was sitting at the console of the Magic Movie Machine. However, a similar but larger keypad located on the wall was sometimes used.

title: UK Uncovered

overview:
UK Uncovered is a British reality television show that was filmed on location as part of a national tour, visiting nearly every major town and city in the United Kingdom. Three series aired originally on the Men and Motors cable/satellite channel in the United Kingdom, operated by ITV plc, starting in December 2002. The first two series were fairly similar to each other, being that they allowed a previously unseen side of British character in a purely observational style, however the third series showed somewhat of a departure by intertwining deliberate comedy and fictional characters interacting with the public.

The series was unashamably aimed at exploiting the sexual preoccupations of young British clubbers, with copious nudity, bawdy situations and innuendo being contrived by the production crew. Despite taking what could be described as a somewhat sordid and juvenile glee at depicting flashes of nudity, the programme at least did not pretend that it was aiming to provide anything more profound or informative.

The presenters Richard Alexander and his sometime sidekick Syd took a self-deprecating approach that was steeped in Northern values: sardonic, cheeky, endearing and ever ready to play the fool. A harder edged "laddish" approach would have likely made the series one dimensional and more overtly sexist.

overview: Summer camp. Summer school. Summer love. First jobs. Re-inventions. Endless skateboarding, band practice, television watching. All this plus a visit to Disneyland. Is there anything in life as perfect as summer vacation? SPF wasn't the sun level - rather it was Sexy Playing Females with bikinis and sand and tanning...and maybe then you got burned. Was it by the sun, or a summer lover is what we wanna know. Were you stuck in school, a summer job, or just hanging out listening to your summer mixed music tape? No sleepin' in here. It's a classic high school essay, "What I did on my summer vacation." This time you don't have to pick up a pen, come dictate it to us and we'll guarantee you get the "A."

title: The Metalheads

overview: If you ever teased your hair, wore studded leather, or decorated the back of your denim jacket with a ballpoint-penned Maiden logo, you're probably qualified to preach the metal lifestyle. Rock and Roll, smoke a bowl! Maybe not always the last part, but being a Metal Head gave you permission for Mayhem, Music, and an image that said "don't f**k with me."

title: The Metalheads

title: The Geeks

overview: Nobody gets through high school without feeling like a total loser now and again. But God help you if you were unusually intelligent, gifted in something other than sports, or a little more shy than normal. Remember holding your purse or suitcase a little tighter because you think you might still get booked? Nerd, Geek, Dweeb, there was abuse and there was revenge, but chances are you've won the battle as of today. Most people today want to tell millions they were a geek. We're looking for the TOTAL geek. Locker luggage, Wedgies, Noogies. You name it, we want to hear about it. So, celebrate your high school trauma with us, as all those Jock losers watch from their homes.

title: The Geeks

Grab your Birks, find your tie-dye, and maybe wash up (?), before you tell us about those high school days as a Hippie. You missed Woodstock by twenty years, but that didn't stop you from taking in a tour with the Dead. So how did the haze of dancing bears and dread locks, stand up to the reality of high school hierarchy and your folks? Grab some munchies, cause it time to scrape the resin of your memory man...ya dig?

The best thing about this show, EVERYBODY had it happen to them at some point. So come join the crowd and recall that First game of "tonsil hockey" you played with that First love, at that First Place, at that First Time

title: Jocks & Cheerleaders

overview: The only kids who hated sports were the ones with no game. You may have hated the laps, the drills, the early AM practices, and the coach -- but you loved the game. And the fringe benefits (parties, power, popularity) weren't too shabby either. If those glory days were yours, we're listening... Pep was your drug of choice. The Hallways were your red carpet. Every winning game on the field was a story that would go down in your town and school's history. Basically you guys created the kingdom known as high school, and we want in on the rules and regulations that kept you in the "in." You had a play book and you had the practices, but the fact is as a Jock or Cheerleader, you didn't need either. On or off the field, you were the stories that people told over and over. "Guess who so and so is dating"..."Did you see what so and so was wearing"...you were usually setting the trends and creating the drama for others...you were: The Jocks & Cheerleaders.

title: Jocks & Cheerleaders

And if they didn't like it, just let them say it to your face! Bad girls, you know who you are. It's time to tell all. What's the best way I should fight that girl spreading rumors about me? What's that excuse I should tell my parents, so I can stay out all night, again? Which animal (zebra, leopard, panther) spandex, makes me look the hottest? Come hang out in the back seat of your teen years and let us in on the secrets. Don't worry, we'll write you a hall pass!

title: B-Boys & B-Girls

title: Rich Kids

overview: It's not your fault your parents were loaded and gave you all those things every other kid secretly lusted after (clothes, cars, exotic vacations.) The envy is too much for the rest of us to bear: please tell us rich teen life wasn't as fabulous as it looked! Yeah, your wallet or purse had a little extra weight to it, and we know it wasn't a condom or can of hairspray, it was the green and plastic stuff. The point is, you couldn't buy your way out of the pressures of high school...or could you? Set the record straight and don't be modest about it. Rich or poor, a teens a teen. So, come cash in on your teen years.

Everything is quintessentially British: a magnificent house and boating lake, model dairy and tea room, croquet and tennis in the garden, a stable full of horses and carriages - and a group of people utterly divided and ruled by class.
