As someone on their first watch through (aside from the recent movies).

My god, that was a good episode. Great depiction of a space battle. Excited I finally decided to take the plunge.

      Not sure that it blew minds that much as much of its core audience would have seen two great submarine movies - ‘The Enemy Below’ (1957) & ‘Run Silent, Run Deep’ (1958).

      The episode takes and translates the submarine warfare and beats of these these movies into a space setting. It’s still marvellous television.

      Recommend both of the movies BTW if you can find them.
