Assignment One: Part 6
30 June 2020
Rob has been lured to the basement by his father. He later realises that this is a trap when he sees the figure of his mother.

Like Sapphire before him, he is in the house but in an earlier time period. The others can still hear him though.

Steel needs to bring Rob back before he is lost and some entity is already in Rob's mind.

It is Steel who spots that the entity of time has made a mistake. He plans to save Rob and bring his parents back but it means putting Helen in danger.

There are again some creepy imagery, especially with Rob in the 1700s with the soldiers about.

Lead is a rousing figure, actor Val Pringle makes use of musical stage experience in this episode.

Overall this was a strong opening adventure, it gives little away about the premise of the show. It was too long at six parts and it could easily had been a more focused four part story.
