For the resident Brits, the Talking Pictures channel (sky channel 328) are showing Shadows of Fear, an anthology series from 1971 on Tuesdays at 4am. These hour long episodes cover a range of fear inducing situations, but (I believe) without straying into the paranormal. We're only on episode 2 so far, but episode 1 looked at the fear of being burgled. Episode 2, the fear of a missing child and unraveling family situation.
Episode 1, 'Did you lock up?', had a nice twist in the tail (and featured a young Mark 'Taggart' McManus).
Episode 2, 'Sugar and Spice' was a deeply unpleasant story, that you can see coming a mile off, but certainly blindsided me a couple of times. Horrible atmosphere of creepy unease as it unfolds - with Sheila Hancock. Well worth watching!
Has anyone else seen these? I enjoyed the first two, do the rest of the series stand up?
