S01 E05 The Happening

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f07Ff...07FffwzjLE

Richard and two other men find themselves stranded in an atomic test area, just as a bomb is due to go off at any time, devastating much of Australia.

"You're not sulking, I hope?"

Lulu the Blue Peter elephant...cybermen at St.Paul's and yeti in the Underground...The Move doing 'Fire Brigade' on TOTP. I've got an elite suite of early telly highlights that stand out like bas-relief in my Memory Mausoleum - and this is on that list. First 'Champions' I saw. Always stayed with me. Desperate to make rewatch but may get shanghaied by other stuff.

Just getting ready.
THis episode is on Disc 7 of my set and the 4th one. Goodness knows what they were thinking off when putting this lot together. My old set was in order.
The next episode, Operation Deepfreeze, is back on disc 1 !!!!

Why do people in the desert in films, chuck all their outer garments away, so they have nothing to guard against the sun or the cold at night?

Haven't seen a single kangaroo or false widow yet. It can't really be Australia.
