Script To Screen


photo thanks to Mark Shaw - click for larger image (66k) At the start of November, 1976, Dorzak began filming on the Moonbase sets on stage L, and in the alien spaceship on the North Tunnel stage. Normally Devil's Planet, being filmed at the same time, would have been shot on M stage, adjacent to L. However, Walt Disney Productions took over M stage to film scenes for the film One Of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing, and Devil's Planet was relocated to a smaller Pinewood stage, B, close to the studio offices. Dressing rooms, make-up and wardrobe were set up in the D, F and G office buildings alongside stage B.

The stunt crew at the end of Year Two were led by Peter Brayham, who plays Garth in this episode (he can also be seen as an Alphan guard in The Dorcons). Cliff Diggins doubles for Landau, as he often does in Year 2, while Sares is doubled by Cyd Child, who usually doubles Catherine Schell and is best known as Diana Rigg's stunt double in The Avengers. Note the warning about whips at the bottom of the call sheet.
