Flight
Air date: Estimated May 26th 1959 Episode - Outpost In Space Season 1 - Episode 38 Role: Bill Cheyney - First Officer
“Flight” was an anthology series revolving around differents types of flight. It only ran for one season and Robert’s episode “Outpost In Space” was the final episode. There are a couple of versions of the history of “Outpost In Space”. One version is that it was simply an episode of the series “Flight”. However it is likely that it was actually a pilot for a series which never got picked up so was used in the “Flight” series. Robert played a villain who met a nasty end on another planet. After many years of searching, “Outpost In Space” was finally found in 2024. The quality of the episode is excellent and we would like to thank Moviecraft for uploading it. Thanks also to Carol Ann Pike, the fan who found it and brought it to our attention.
