(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
2
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,800
NARRATOR: Following the official
rejection of his theory
3
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,280
that Martians colonised this Earth
five million years ago by proxy,
4
00:00:53,160 --> 00:00:57,080
Professor Bernard Quatermass
receives startling confirmation of it.
5
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,360
The drill operator, Sladden,
6
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,800
is found to have run
from the excavation at Knightsbridge
7
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,280
possessed by frightful visions
and poltergeist outbreaks
8
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:11,600
which grip him even in the church
where he takes refuge.
9
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:16,720
Convinced that these are Martian
faculties implanted in man's ancestors
10
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:22,560
and still capable of being dangerously
stirred up by the great hull in the pit,
11
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,200
Quatermass carries out tests there.
12
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,600
Through Dr Roney's optic encephalograph
13
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,680
and the susceptible mind
of Barbara Judd
14
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:38,960
are stored images obtained
of a race purge on ancient Mars.
15
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,200
But this evidence is rejected
as the record of mere hallucination,
16
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,400
and that night,
people are admitted to the excavation,
17
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,520
press and television representatives.
18
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,760
Even as Quatermass challenges
Colonel Breen's official statement,
19
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,480
a violent electrical discharge
breaks out in the hull.
20
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:15,480
A technician laying a power cable there
has been electrocuted.
21
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,800
What do you think?
22
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,280
Artificial respiration?
23
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,720
That's no use.
He's burnt up.
24
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,400
Well, we'd better get
an ambulance for this chap.
25
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,200
Higgins!
26
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,720
I couldn't help him, sir,
I couldn't!
27
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,640
- It's all right!
- You said he fell?
28
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,800
Yes, it's all slippery in there, and he
was just fixing the junction box...
29
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,320
It was an accident.
30
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,120
It may not have been.
31
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,280
- Quatermass!
- What do you mean?
32
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,040
He's making out
as though it was my fault.
33
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,040
Look sir, there was nothing
I could have done, nothing...
34
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:06,920
All right,
I believe you!
35
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,880
- Switch on again soon as you're ready!
- QUATERMASS: No, wait.
36
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,920
- I've got to get some light.
- Cut the cable into the hull.
37
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,240
All right.
Kill number two!
38
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,320
Oh!
39
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,480
What did you see?
40
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,520
Inside there.
It's glowing!
41
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,920
But I was sure.
42
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,080
It was before the lights came on
again, but perhaps that's it.
43
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,160
- It's too bright now to see!
- You shouldn't have come here.
44
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:19,040
You of all people.
Potter.
45
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,880
- I don't want to go!
- Get her out of this.
46
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,480
- Can you do that?
- I think I can if...
47
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:25,240
Keep back!
48
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,960
The cable's disconnected now.
It's all right.
49
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,000
I think not. Breen, get these people
away from here quickly.
50
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:35,160
I'll do nothing of the sort.
51
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:38,040
- Just because there's been an accident!
- An accident? Here?
52
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,040
My name is Quatermass.
53
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,080
If that means anything to you,
take my advice.
54
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,400
Leave this place now.
I think there may be grave danger.
55
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,360
- What do you mean, sir?
- Danger of what?
56
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,200
Let's go where the professor can
give us a full and free statement,
57
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,320
anywhere away from here.
Hurry!
58
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,560
One moment!
59
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,040
If you want to leave,
that's entirely your own affair.
60
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,720
But the official arrangements
will go on as planned.
61
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,880
Do as I said.
Get out!
62
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,560
Do you mind turning round
this way, sir? Face the cameras?
63
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,160
Thank you very much.
64
00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:16,440
Breen, you can't!
You've got to release these people.
65
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,080
Cancel it for the present at least!
66
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,320
Precisely on what grounds,
Professor?
67
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,160
I think there may be some new activity
starting in that thing.
68
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,640
What reason have you to believe that?
69
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,280
Something else you can't prove?
70
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,120
You're a tired man
and you need a long rest.
71
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,360
That's not just my view either.
72
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,640
Colonel Breen,
we should be doing
73
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,760
the live television broadcast
in about five minutes.
74
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,680
Would you mind, sir?
Just holding it there.
75
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,400
We shall carry on as rehearsed.
76
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,360
Unless, of course,
in view of this controversy,
77
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,200
you might like to include
the professor for a few questions?
78
00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:57,360
- What?
- It might be a good idea, sir.
79
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,560
Do you agree, sir?
80
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,400
Would you mind, Professor, just stepping
this way, so that we can get a balance?
81
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,200
Thank you very much.

to Hobbs Lane in Knightsbridge

to see something of the remarkable
missile discovered there recently
89
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,000
and to hear an official account of...
90
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,200
It's only a couple of blocks away.
91
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,400
Why have we got to
see it on that thing?
92

I was in the Ruhr when the war finished.

What?
All right, quick!
98
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,240
Good evening. I'm standing just a few
yards away from the mysterious missile
99
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,040
which has been so much discussed.

Colonel Breen,
I think perhaps you ought to...
102
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,760
Uh, I'm terribly sorry,
but something seems to have gone wrong.
103
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,760

and then they go and muck it up!

- Funny noises.
- Vision on sound.

108
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,880
- Have another?
- Yes, I will.
109
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,520

And then...

00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,080
You'll never get through.
348
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,800
Mass into energy...
349
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:44,600
Electrical energy,
at a guess.
350
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,800
(CHUCKLES)
351
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,480
It's all right, I'm with you.
352
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:51,880
Ever study legends?
353
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,800
Then you'd know the devil's traditional
enemies, iron and water!
354
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,760
What are you driving at?
355
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,480
Legends gave us the first clue.
It may be worth trying again.
356
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,760
If it was possible to fling a mass
of steel cable through the middle of it,
357
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,520
connected to wet earth,
358
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,920
that might make sense,
both magical and scientific!
359
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,240
There's a lot of steel chain
outside in the street.
360
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,680
(SCREAMING)
361
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:35,680
Oh, we thought that was you!
362
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,040
They saw me.
363
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,040
Then a man came
blundering into them.
364
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,120
A blind man with a dog.
365
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,880
Here, is there enough, do you think?
366
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,680
Tie it to that pipe.
367
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,280
It should go down to the main sewers.
368
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:01,600
- I'll try it.
- No.
369
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,760
It's our only chance.
I'm least likely to be detected.
370
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,840
All right.
Don't get too close.
371
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,480
Throw it as far as you can,
right up into that fireball.
372
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,720
- I'm going down there.
- No!
373
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:30,640
(CRACKLING)
374
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,760
(EXPLOSION)
375
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:44,400
Roney!
376
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,480
Roney!
377
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,040
Roney!
378
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,400
Roney!
379
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,400
That is the full account.
380
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:26,280
Matthew Roney was a brave man
and a friend.
381
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:28,600
Much more.
382
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,280
For it is with his kind that hope lies.
383
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,080
For they have outgrown
the Martian in us.
384
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,400
If another of these things
should ever be found,
385
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,920
we are armed with knowledge,
386
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,600
but we also have knowledge of ourselves
and of the ancient,
387
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,800
destructive urges in us
388
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,800
that grow more deadly
as our populations increase
389
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:55,080
and approach in size
and complexity those of ancient Mars.
390
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:00,680
Every war crisis, witch-hunt,
race-riot, purge
391
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,080
is a reminder and a warning.
392
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,480
We are the Martians.
393
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,080
If we cannot control
the inheritance within us,
394
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,800
this will be their second dead planet.
395
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,520
