I like the dress code for this excavation site. No entry without a tie. No excuse for letting standards slip.

Now we get music! Perhaps they saw your comments.,

No - there's a pair! One pair per lab in Harold Wilson's Britain.

How do they know the insect's called Arthur?

The band's back from the pub.

This film badly needs Michael Ripper.

Nice pithy newspaper headline. These days they'd be looking for the Harry and Meghan angle.

Music for the most dramatic bits only - and my Dad would wait till Mum was fully involved and scared, before he'd say things like,
"Where is the orchestra sitting, then?"

In the orchestra pit, of course. As seen in 'Quatermass and the Orchestra Pit'.

I get just a whiff of Cthulhu Mythos, for some odd reason. But that's enough about my aftershave.

What happened to Andrew Keir? Was this his career peak? Can't remember him from the 70s.

The cthullu gang would have sorted out Arthur and co.

'Arthur O'Pod - Reanimator' would have been a great film.

Cthulhu Mythos? Why do all their names start with 'S'?

No pudding. I'm trying to lose weight.

Quatermass has switched to a normal tie. Is that a good sign or a bad one?

Here we go! Steel yourselves! This is genuinely ludicrous.

Fair play to them all for not laughing.
