Orbiting aimlessly without a crew, the USS Exeter presents the appearance of a Marie Celeste in space to the incredulous eyes of Captain Kirk and his boarding party, but they soon find something far more sinister than was seen in that ancient mystery of the sea.
Confirming their fears, the captain's log warns - 'If you've come aboard, you're dead men - don't go back to your ship!' The only alternative is the planet below... and the Yangs are coming!

Last year over 1,000 people died in 32 air accidents. In the near future, it would be possible for a similar number to die in one cataclysmic mid-air collision between two jumbo jets. But will it ever happen? How safe is this new era of flying? And what of the aircraft of today that already have that second-hand appearance? In tonight's Panorama, What Price Air Safety?, Richard Kershaw reports on the world of flying and how far it can be made safer.

Giant submarine tankers have been a dream in the oil industry for years. Now, they are not only possible but necessary - to ship oil out of Alaska under the ice.
Mogul's experiments have gone well. Now Stead, Thornton, and Izard visit their submarine - not in Alaska but in the Caribbean. Even there, though, things can go dangerously wrong - as Stead finds on his first underwater dive.

What do we make? - What will they buy? Spotlight on the export drive : new ideas - new products - new markets.

Golf - one of the world's fastest-growing sports and a mushrooming international industry, with British manufacturers of equipment busily exploiting the potentially vast markets of America, Japan, and the rest of Europe. It will mean big money for at least two firms already making handsome profits out of the golf explosion - one, the producers of millions of golf balls; the other, an old-established club makers in Scotland, the traditional home of a game which goes back at least 500 years.
