Il personaggio del [[Bernard Quatermass|professor Quatermass]] venne creato dallo scrittore [[Isola di Man|mannita]] [[Nigel Kneale]] nel [[1953]] per la [[miniserie televisiva]] ''[[The Quatermass Experiment (serie televisiva)|The Quatermass Experiment]]''. Il successo della produzione, portò a realizzare due seguiti, ''[[Quatermass II (serie televisiva)|Quatermass II]]'' e ''[[Quatermass and the Pit (serie televisiva)|Quatermass and the Pit]]''<ref name="knealescreen">{{cite web|url=http://www.screenonline.org.uk/people/id/458926/index.html|title=Kneale, Nigel (1922–2006)|first=Sergio|last=Angelini|publisher=[[Screenonline]]|accessdate=2007-05-16}}</ref> Queste tre serie della saga di Quatermassn sono considerati a tutt'oggi come produzioni televisive seminali degli [[Anni 1950|anni cinquanta]]. Kneale, comunque, si discostò dalla [[BBC]] e nei tardi anni cinquanta divenne uno scrittore [[freelance]], realizzando copioni per la [[Hammer Films]] e la [[Associated Television]].<ref name="Murray_passim">Murray, ''Into the Unknown'', ''passim''.</ref>

The notion of bringing Professor Quatermass back for a fourth adventure dated back to at least 1965 when producer [[Irene Shubik]] asked Kneale to contribute a new ''Quatermass'' story for the first season of her science fiction [[anthology television series|anthology series]], ''[[Out of the Unknown]]''.<ref name="Pixley_c_39">Pixley, ''The Quatermass Collection – Viewing Notes'', p. 39.</ref> Nothing came of this but the prospect of ''Quatermass'' making a reappearance arose again when, following the success of the [[Quatermass and the Pit (film)|film version]] of ''Quatermass and the Pit'' in 1967, Hammer announced they were in discussions with Kneale for a new ''Quatermass'' adventure.<ref name="Screen_1">Screen, ''Production Notes'', Disc 1.</ref> Again, this did not progress beyond the initial negotiation stage. In the meantime, Kneale had been coaxed back to the BBC, writing plays such as ''[[The Year of the Sex Olympics]]'' (1968), ''Wine of India'' (1970) and ''[[The Stone Tape]]'' (1972).<ref name="Murray_passim" /> Following completion of ''The Stone Tape'', Kneale was commissioned on 21 November 1972 by BBC Head of Drama Serials, Ronnie Marsh, to write a new four-part Quatermass serial.<ref>Pixley, ''All the Rage of the World'', p. 48.</ref>
