| Darth Vader returns, searching for Luke Skywalker and his hidden Rebel Alliance fraction. |
Darth Vader's determination that the Imperial Probe Droid dispersion will find the Rebels has paid off, with footage from the sixth planet in the barren, uncharted Hoth system revealing footage of a power generator and a Snowspeeder. Despite the concerns of the incompetent Admiral Ozzel, the Imperial Death Fleet is soon on its way there, ready for cold weather warfare!

| Vader looks at the Hoth probe droid footage with Captain Piett (Kenneth Colley). |

| Admiral Ozzel (Michael Sheard) and General Veers (Julian Glover) arrive on the bridge. |

| The foolish Admiral Ozzel, so well played by sci-fi film/TV fan favourite Michael Sheard. |

General views of the Star Destroyer bridge set, which used existing, in-UK storage pieces of set from the Death Star of the original Star Wars (notably the hangar control room), was expanded in size during production and post production with matte shots and reversing the pit section from left to right. Once again, futuristic UK set decorator/artist Harry Lange was at work creating the numerous control panels and keeping the visual continuity previously established.
