A weekly series of films taken by travellers and explorers on their expeditions throughout the world.

Rumours of strange monsters 'nine or ten feet long, like crocodiles' had been brought by Air Force personnel to Singapore. These creatures were crawling up out of the sea on to the beach at Egg Island twenty miles north of Penang. With the help of the R.A.F. and R.A.A.F., Ivan Polunin and his friend Tony Beamish decided to investigate and to try to capture one either physically or on film.
