    Robert E. Wood’s recently published “[b]Destination Moonbase Alpha[/b]” gives a few details.
    From page 460 of “[b]Destination Moonbase Alpha[/b]:” “The Return Of Victor Bergman”, Screenplay by Robert E. Wood and Barry Morse. Directed by Robert E. Wood.
    Plot: A Moonbase Alpha Status Report, recorded by Professor Victor Bergman in the year 2030.
    Details: This fan-produced short film features actor Barry Morse reprising his role of the Professor following Year One. The footage was filmed in Cleveland, Ohio in 2002, following a performance of Morse’s one man stage play [i]Merely Players[i]. ”
    The cast list includes flashback footage of Martin Landau, Barbara Bain, Prentis Hancock, Zienia Merton, Nick Tate and Anton Phillips.
    Any more information would probably ruin the effect of seeing Morse as Bergman again. Just the idea is thrilling enough.

    Also, I can recommend “[b]Destination Moonbase Alpha[/b]” as a very enjoyable and comprehensive read. 35 years on, there may not be alot that any 1999 fan doesn’t know about the show,but Wood’s book benefits from many first person quotes from cast and crew, good organization and an obvious affection for the material.
