I'm finally kicking off the banner rotation for the year with The White Dwarf, which was filmed and screened on 15-16 February 1963, making it exactly 57 years old.

Esprit de Corps had its first Australian broadcast back on 2nd March 1965 so it's this week's banner image.

Ferdy Mayne was born on this day back in 1916 so this week's banner is from Legacy of Death.

Feel free to discuss!

Surely Legacy of Death has more aesthetic shots than this one?

Well, yes, but hard to fit into a banner format. Feel free to supply a new banner.

Love it!

It's a very stylish episode, based on the publicity stills that have been found. It's sad that it has been lost; I think it would be a great episode to watch.

(I also think it's the inspiration for The Tale of the Big Why as there seem to be numerous similarities of plot).

I loved sifting through those photos on whatever the site was (Alan's wasn't it)

The lighting is so good in this shot. Good choice.

I struggled to find a banner this time but settled on Minikillers as there are so many of those COVID-19 virii circling the globe at the moment.

Thanks, very appropriate.

I love the background by the way, makes me imagine what the series three title sequence would have been like in colour.

A return to the COVID-19 themed banner that was cut short in April: The Deadly Air from series 1, the plot concerns a deadly airborne virus being used to kill people at a vaccine research centre.

I can't resist following up with the obvious COV-19-related theme of You'll Catch Your Death[/i] this week, even though we had it last year long before the pandemic started.
