ANNUL DOMINI: THE JESUS FACTOR by Ingrid Pitt Time-traveller Robin
Firth is dispatched to Galilee on a mission, but all does not go
according to plan. He wakes from his mental journey to find himself
trapped in the body of the local madman, Haddaq, with only one
thing on his mind - he must reach Jesus and save him from
crucifixion... ANNUL DOMINI is the first in a series of previously
unpublished books by the late 'Queen of Horror' Ingrid Pitt. An
exciting science-fiction laced alternative look at the familiar
passion story and the birth of Christianity. A thought provoking
novel.
Double bill of BBC espionage drama mini-series based on the novels
by John Le Carré and starring Alec Guinness as master spy George
Smiley. In 'Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy' (1979), Smiley has been
in 'retirement' for some time, some say owing to his mishandling of
the Czech scandal. However, the retiring superspy finds himself
summoned back to the 'Circus' (British secret service) when it
transpires that an enemy infiltrator is at work in the department.
Smiley returns once again to his old department in 'Smiley's
People' (1982) following the murder of his friend, General
Vladimir, a Russian who once worked for British Intelligence. When
it transpires that Vladimir was in fact a double agent, Smiley
becomes engaged in a battle of wills with his old adversaries at
the Moscow Centre.
A collection of classic Doctor Who episodes featuring Tom Baker and
Jon Pertwee in the role of the Doctor. In the four-parter 'The
Horns of Nimon', the Skonnon ships have returned to the skies of
Aneth, demanding tribute. But as the final consignment is being
taken to Skonnos, an accident forces the ship off course. In the
six-parter 'The Time Monster', a new invention to transport matter
through time creates a number of disturbing distortions in the
temporal fabric. The Doctor (Jon Pertwee) investigates, and soon
finds himself up against his nemesis, The Master, in a battle to
control a powerful sacred crystal. In the four-parter 'Underworld',
the TARDIS lands the Doctor (Tom Baker) in a Minyan spaceship that
is on a quest to find the Minyan race banks stored in a missing
ship known as the P7E. They eventually find what they are looking
for in a cave system at the centre of a newly-formed planet. But
the P7E's computer has ideas of its own, and doesn't look kindly
upon its new visitors.
Three feature-length Doctor Who adventures. In 'Doctor Who and the
Silurians' (1970), Jon Pertwee stars as the third Doctor, who is
called to an atomic research station in Derbyshire to investigate a
series of mysterious events. His questions uncover a vicious ring
of in-house saboteurs and something a bit more slimy. In 'The Sea
Devils' (1972), after visiting their old enemy the Master (Roger
Delgado) in his remote island prison, the Doctor (Pertwee) and Jo
learn of several recent accidents at sea, all of which have been
accompanied by reported sightings of strange monsters. The Doctor
discovers that the creatures responsible are the Sea Devils,
acquatic cousins of the Silurians who are out to reclaim the planet
Earth from mankind. In 'Warriors of the Deep' (1983), The Doctor
(Peter Davison), Tegan and Turlough arrive at an underwater base on
an Earth in the future on the brink of Atomic War. Helping to
trigger this war are the planet's original inhabitants, the
Silurians and the Sea Devils, aided by their killer pantomime
horse, the Myrka.
