That one was very ropey. My fave was "Survival" where Straker and Foster 
are downed on the lunar surface and helped by an alien.

It's a shame that series two was resurrected as Space 1999 - a show with 
an awful premise which quickly metamorphosed into Lost In Space 2 with 
obligatory scary monsters. The only two espisodes of that I liked was 
the Sargasso Space Monster one with the Albinoni score and the one where 
Simmons won the lottery to go back to Earth.
