06.03.05 NEW QUATERMASS EXPERIMENT ON BBC4
Since the last update, news has come in that alongside the BBCs release of the original Quatermass series on DVD on April 4th, BBC4 will be screening a brand new version of The Quatermass Experiment on April 2nd. For full details click here

03.03.05 First broadcast in the 1950s, Nigel Kneale's three popular series about Professor Quatermass and the Rocket Patrol Group, paved the way for modern British science fiction. Essential viewing for the British public, this is the first time in fifty years that the important shows will be made available for domestic viewing again, uncut. Packed with extras, and digitally restored to their former glory, this all important set will be an essential purchase for Hammer fans.

In 1954 Hammer would set about adapting the first of the Quatermass serials, with Brian Donlevy in the starring role. The blend of science fiction and horror would push Hammer into the horror field the name is now synonomous with.

Available from April 4th, at £29.99, from BBC Worldwide (Region 2, 3 disc set).
