AFTER THE SUCCESS OF THE CYBERNAUTS ANOTHER STORY OF ROBOTS

A driver accidentally hits a man on the road with his vehicle. In the local hospital they verify that he is dead but suddenly he gets up and escapes. Emma and Steed decide to investigate the strange event and the clues lead them to a mysterious Neoteric Research Center. Here we have a great episode starring Christopher Lee where the robot theme that had gone so well in the previous season with The Cybernauts is repeated. Lee's walk through the woods in search of victims is frightening, the music and the climate of this story are excellent.
