Another one of my favorite scenes

One of my favorite shows when I was a kid was Space: 1999. Yes, it was very goofy, with bad science (the moon is blown out of Earth's orbit with a moon base on the surface), but I loved it nonetheless. And that was even before the first season episode The Full Circle aired.

In this episode, resident cutie Sandra (Zienia Merton) gets abducted by cave people--who are her fellow members of Moonbase Alpha who have been reverted to savages by a strange fog on an alien planet.

Sandra, herself barefoot and scantily clad in animal skins, gets tied twice--once while carried on a pole, and the second is when she's bound spread eagle to a rack.

I can't help but wonder if watching this scene for the first time as a child was what developed my great love for all things Jungle Girls. This certainly might have been the spark for me.

We have Togolane to thank for this crisp, clear clip. You can see this right here.
