The Ambassadors of Death - Episode 3

Still rolling along nicely. This episode has only the first few minutes in color, then it's black & white the rest of the way. The "astronauts" are very cool, they're nicely mysterious and creepy almost. Their menace is pretty well realized. At times this episode felt like it was lifted from a Connery James Bond film, with car chases and stuff. I particularly remember the Liz chase from my first viewing ages ago. I don't think it was because of the big floppy white hat she has, but that's pretty nifty too. During the car chase we get a rather more swinging version of the UNIT theme. Good cliffhanger, as Liz appears to be thrown over the railing into the water below...
