SFX footage

SFX footage from the World Backgrounds library. The library contains many alternative takes and longer shots (sometimes including clapperboards). A few examples have appeared on the Network DVDs bonus disc, but many have never been seen. Episode shots are outlined in red, all other shots from the library.

Scene 4 in the script, the vortex, slowly turning clockwise. Seen in episode. About 20 seconds. Clapperboard marks slate 38 take 1, filmed 24 April 1974.

In the script, the Moon is tugged off it's course and towards the vortex. This is what causes everyone to fall in Main Mission. This is the SFX for that scene, which was rejected in favour of the Moon moving straight into the vortex. Clapperboard marks slate 41 take 1, filmed 25 April 1974. 40 seconds. A second take follows.

Clapperboard marks slate 41 take 4, filmed 25 April 1974. Moving much faster, 20 seconds.

The Moon enters the vortex. Seen in episode. Clapperboard marks slate 40 take 2, filmed 25 April 1974. 15 seconds as the Moon moves to the centre of the vortex, another 10 seconds it is static, with the vortex still rotating.
