We never had this much trouble when Halley's Comet passed by in 1986. Then again unless you had a decent telescope there really was nothing to see. So the end of the world was not nigh.
This time Doug and Tony find out that the local townsfolk seem to care little for the two hundred miners are trapped inside a mine in 1910.
They think the world is due to end because of a flaming apparition in the sky. Halley's comet and a local professor is convinced that it will hit Earth, he had done the calculations.
It is left to Doug to convince the scientist that he has got it wrong.
A flaky episode with dodgy science. That people did not know about Halley's comet and Doug had difficulty in explaining to a scientist why the comet will not hit the planet.
