Comprising two episodes, The Powerful Enemy and Desperate Measures, the story
features the debut of companion Vicki, played by Maureen O'Brien who now provides
newly recorded linking narration and a bonus behind-the-scenes interview.
The Doctor, Ian (William Russell) and Barbara (Jacqueline Hill) discover a crashed
spaceship on the planet Dido in the 25th Century. Survivors Vicki and Bennett are
menaced by a terrifying native named Koquillion or are they? The travellers risk their
lives to discover the truth.
Sixty years after its original broadcast, The Rescue is presented for the first time on
140g 'Rescue Red' translucent vinyl in a beautifully illustrated outer sleeve depicting
Koquillion, plus an illustrated inner sleeve which includes full cast and credits.
