wow-

Not to be missed episodes...

Norman Lloyd and Sondra Locke, as well as some adequately strange and creepy landscapes of the English countryside.

If you are in the U.S. you must watch "Chiller" channel on cable premium or satellite. Many very good and eerie performances on Serlings "Night Gallery". A collection of odd stories and supernatural anecdotes from the 50's, 60's and 70's.

Also you will see some rather well-known actors (today) who were just starting out in the 60's and 70's. Classic and not to be missed. Highly recommended. 9/10.
