Doctor Who Nightmare of Eden (1979)

The Nightmare of Eden is another sci-fi romp for Tom Baker in the guise of the 4th incarnation of The Doctor.  I was 11 when I first saw this and I still remember it quite well from that single viewing.  I remember the two spaceships that get merged together, the monstrous Mandrels that roam the ships corridors and even the twist ending about the source of the drug Vraxoin.
What I don’t recall though are these two space-chaps, suited up on the cheap with silver jump-suits and a couple of motor-bike helmets.
Classic Who on a classic Who budget.  Lovely!
