Orbit One Zero | 1961 | BBC

It was pretty darned good sci fi. Dated, sure, but way above most of the stuff I’ve heard from this era. Transmissions from space reminded me of Contact, found buried items of alien origin reminded me of 2001 A Space Odyssey, so yeah, good imaginative science fiction. And it committed no crimes as far as production, cast, writing, etc.. And I love the 6 half-hour episode length so they could tell the story nice and slow. Though, a little too slow in spots. But it’s a good length to put my headphones in and get some real housework done.

I won’t keep it but I give it a C+.
