      [last lines]

      Host: [at close of every episode] And so until next we meet, this is Anthony Quayle reminding you that there is a touch of evil in all of us. Good night.

      [starts to leave, then turns to camera]

      Host: Pleasant dreams.

    A touch of brilliance
    How I wish to see this show again. On DVD preferably. It has been years and years but I can still remember the theme, and Anthony Quayles haunting "there is a touch of evil in all of us". And didnt he always wish us pleasant dreams?

    The only complaint I had was that they were repeated over and over, but now my only complaint is that they are NOT repeated! IT'S TIME GUYS - DUST OFF THE TINS AND SHOW IT AGAIN.

    I can't get that music out of my head..........

    ps. then there was that parrot screaming "Murderer Murderer Murderer" It was like TwighlightZone+TalesOfTheUnexpected+NightGallery all rolled into one.

    *Sigh* If only I'd had a video.....
