"Welcome To Project Zero!", 21 September 2006

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Along a quiet country road, a man in a lab coat runs, plainly terrified. Coming to a small village square, he finds it eerily deserted. He tries to make a phone call, but while his back is turned, the Postmaster shoots him dead. The scientist's body is later found dumped in a London street. Tremayne tells The Champions that several scientists, all experts in their field, have mysteriously disappeared. Posing as a physicist, Richard Barrett attends an interview for what he believes to be a top secret British Government project. In actual fact, it is bogus; the project's director - Dr.Voss - intends using a laser gun to destroy stockpiles of nuclear material unless his demands are met. The late Tony Williamson was one of the best I.T.C. staff writers, and this is his finest 'Champions' script. There's genuine suspense in the scene where Craig attempts to remove the explosive collar around Richard's neck. Great ending, with Sharron getting the last word for once!
