The four-part Doctor Who adventure "The Ark" began on March 5, 1966, with the episode titled "The Steel Sky." Attempting to stomp out a plague on the spaceship carrying the last human survivors of Earth to the planet Refusis II, the crew of the TARDIS rematerializes on the same ark 700 years in the future. Little do they realize that their arrival will make things far worse than before. At the moment, however, the Doctor (William Hartnell) and his friends, Steven (Peter Purves) and Dodo, must contend with the terrors awaiting them in a strange jungle. "The Steel Sky" was written by Paul Erickson and Lesley Scott. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
