ve rounds, rapid!" indeed.

I had no idea (heard it recently, haven't had a chance to confirm) that
there were some U.N.I.T. spinoff shows/movies. Any of you Who-vians or
residents of Britannia care to confirm/deny this? Any info appreciated.
I
think if you needed to make a revived Dr. Who spin-off, U.N.I.T. would
have
been an excellent choice.

The other funny part is, other than his accent, Brigadier Alastair
Gordon
Lethbridge-Stewart could have fit right into my old reserve unit. We had
the
same sweaters (I suspect that our combat pants varied slightly, but we
did
look a lot like the Brits of the day) and my FNC1 was essentially the
same
as the ones used by the U.N.I.T. troops. And I heard 'Five rounds, rapid
fire!' enough times.... or my other favourite 'With five rounds,
emergency
load!' (you could jam stripper clips of 5 straight into the top of the
FNC1
in an emergency when you'd used up all your already mag-loaded ammo).

Some more goodness:

Lastly a modernized UNIT engagement:

(I really like their ride, although methinks it ran a bit to quiet
considering its engine systems)
