What happens
Dr. Roberts recounts a flight into the unexplored interior of Papua, known to him as New Guinea. Travelling by hydroplane with a pilot, Jackson, and a navigator, Gail, he sets out to reach a tribe no white man has seen. On arriving at a large village, the visitors find the people believe they are a healing spirit sent to cure their sick chief. When the chief dies, the villagers turn on the travellers, and the account of their escape begins.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
