The script should be in the archive on the Tunnel of Fear disc, it's Tony Pelly's copy.

Oh, and yes, the tablets were lethal. When the tables are turned, Cathy makes him take a "sleeping" tablet and that's what killed him. He says, "I'm sorry I had to lie to a lady" just before he collapses.
Mrs Peel, you're needed!

Never mind the lying, he should be sorry he tried to kill her!

Ah yes, here's the relevant bit:

Interesting how they made the dialogue more kinky, with the Cathy-spanking in front of class bit instead of standing in the corner!

I just noticed today that the song playing in the café is "Move Over Tiger" by Vince Taylor, right up the street of the rockers on the pinball machine.

I’m not sure if this has been posted elsewhere on the forum but despite not being a fan of such things, this colourised clip looks very good indeed:

can you imagine the bulk of the Gale episodes, colorized ?

looking great, probably...budget wise, not in the cards...unless studio canal opens up the cheque book..

It would certainly give them a new audience, and I'd take a look. No-one would do it as a labour of love though, it would take forever!

yes, but with today's software, etc, it wouldn't be as time consuming, as in the past..biggest stumbling block is probably cost..



but it could translate into renewed interest...especially with new fans..

myself, I would also take a look...
