In which they accidentally make a first draft.
"It’s a very Doctor Who thing to imagine scientists all work in ancient manor houses in wood panelling for some reason, isn’t it? Some weird memory of Oxbridge that mixes up the labs with the colleges? Or just because it looks nice on television?"
I used to work here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howbery_Park. Also consider https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roke_Manor_Research. I went there once when I worked at Siemens, who owned it at one point. Even the building I worked in at DERA Holton Heath looked a bit like a manor house though it wasn't: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Naval_Cordite_Factory,_Holton_Heath. So, yes, what "The Avengers" and "Doctor Who" and other spy/thriller-type things are playing off with these scientists in manor houses is a very real British phenomenon.
Because we are "the image of the Fendahl" it is the 'god' that has made man in its likeness. See my Black Archive for full exegesis.
It is basically The Devil Rides Out with bits of Nigel Kneale thrown in to make it 'SF'.
