Synopsis:

Professor Quatermass became one of television's first heroes and the serials themselves earned a place in small-screen history.

The Quatermass Experiment (1953): The plan was to pilot a manned rocket some 1500 miles above the earth for observation purposes and then to return. The project looked very reasonable in theory, but in practice...

Quatermass II (1955): Professor Quatermass is testing prototypes of a second space rocket but has a crushing setback. With his research at a standstill, there is a curious interruption.

Quatermass & The Pit (1958): Professor Quatermass is resisting the planners of a rocket-project known as the Dead Man's Deterrent. Meanwhile excavation is going on at Hobbs Lane, long the site of reported imps and devils...
