Average at best.

Michael lays on his deathbed from a Prison call, he's given the chance to look back at the events which led to his incarceration.

Only my second episode, I think I'd rate it, as with the previous one as watchable, but no more, decent viewing, hardly what I was hoping for from Hammer.

Great ideas, there was some real imagination shown here, but after a very interesting beginning, I felt that it fell a little bit flat. I thought the idea of Rosemary being haunted was great, but once everyone was able to see Michael, I thought the wheels fell off the wagon somewhat.

David Carradine is ok, I'm not sure I found him totally convincing as the older version of himself, Stephanie Beacham also performed fairly well I thought. Stephen Grief was somewhat underused.

5/10.
