Before: Carried by the crewman as a navigational tool, knot loosely secured
After: Tightened around the column, arresting the crewman’s fall down the shaft just enough to prevent his capture

S17E1 · Destiny of the Daleks Part 1

Before: Stored or carried by the crewman as part of pursuit equipment
After: Tied around the column securing Romana in the shaft
