I remember think UFO was brilliant at the time but looking back it was very amateurish wasn't it?

Straight after Space 1999, last night, they showed a version of quatermass starring John Mills as the professor, 'quatermass', it was o.k. but didn't send me hiding behind the sofa like the 1950's version with the frightening music, (Mars bringer of war Gustav Holst).

Yah big girl's blouse .. Quatermass was great, although didn't get a telly until approx 1954.

Do remember most of those listed, but not because I watched them as a child .. would have watched them (or put them on to keep them quiet for half an hour) with my daughter born in '65 and son '82. Gosh, I'm old, 'aint I !
