Me, too! I remember it being serialised on the Beeb donkey's years ago (and it was in black and white) and it was one of those "hide behind the sofa" serials that just had to be watched. SFF TV in its infancy - but what a story! Thanks for starting it all off Nigel Kneale - hope you have as much influence and fun wherever you now are!
