Friday at Midnight, Saturday at Midnight - The Rescue - movie version
Susan's gone, leaving a hole in the 1st Doctor's life. So, naturally when he encounters Vicki, a teenager who's one of only two survivors of a space trip, he considers taking her with him. But when evidence builds that it was a human in disguise that killed everyone, the question must be raised - is she the killer? About 50 minutes.
