This is an episode of "Out Of The Unknown" and it's just as good as any of the others I have talked about here, and yes, there will be more comiong in the future.
This is based on a story by M.R. James abd it concerns a people in the far future who live underground and their every need is tended to by a machine.
Every need is met and everyone lives in his or hers own room without a care in the world. A young man named Kuno (Michael Gothard) wants to make a trip to the surface.
While this isn't forbidden, it isn't looked upon very kindley, but Kuno is curious. As if this isn't problem enough, one day the machine just stops working.
This was shot on videotape in 1966, and the quality is very good for what it is. I have never seen an episode of this show that I didn't like.
The story is very relevant today and it holds up well. I recommend this as I do all episodes of the series, if you can find them. The rest of the cast includes Yvonne Mitchell, Nike Arrighi, Jonathan Hansen, and Lucy Hill.
