BiggieTembo 27th Jun 2015		Saw this as a kid when they first broadcast it way back when in the UK. BBC1 I believe, on a Saturday night? Or a Tuesday night? Scary series' always used to be shown on Tuesdays, if I remember rightly... (Check out Maelstrom, if someone uploads that...) Anyway... The first episode was one of the creepiest things I'd ever seen up to that point. Some guy alone in a hospital, eyes bandaged, feeling his way around all manner of drip stands and wheelchairs and calling, "hello!?" etc. Brrrrrr still remember it today... A great example of something being more scary because of what you DON'T see... :-s



harley 26th Jun 2015		Many-Thanks 23skidoo I did not even know about this I've ordered a DVD from Amazon.



23skidoo 26th Jun 2015		@Harley. The BBC did do a remake, about 5 years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_of_the_Triffids_%282009_TV_series%29



harley 26th Jun 2015		I thought the BBC would have remade this by now.
