Never heard of her! John Challis is the only one I know, though Barraclough rings a vague bell.

Christ, as if it wasn't shite enough to begin with, they're remaking it!

Yeah, I vaguely recall Barraclough, still none the wiser on the others! |

This seems as good a place as any to put this! 'Crown Court' was a television docu-drama series that ran for 879 episodes between 1972 to 1984. Broadcast in the afternoon, it was a programme my mum liked, and so I would always end up watching it on the occasions when I was faking illness and skiving off school! Screened in 1973, the case 'Destruct, Destruct' is an example of what was perfectly acceptable back in the day - just watch the opening pre-credit sequence which depicts a children's game going horrifically wrong and ask yourself "would this be shown today, at 1:30pm"

Haha! Love the way the boy removes his goggles and then stares blankly at the body. Very Michael Myers like. I wonder if John Carpenter ever saw that on cable tv at the time? |

I keep hoping network might release a complete set of Crown Court on dvd. There are a few volumes but nowhere near all of it. Probably only a couple of years at a guess. I was too young to see the early years but i definitely saw episodes from the later series in the 80's. It ran for 11 or 12 years i think. It's be expensive seeing as there's so much of it but grab it in a sale and it'd definitely be worth it. As Susan said, it's not the sort of thing you get today. |

It's not the sort of thing you want to religiously sit and watch nor clog up your Sky box with hours of it. A bit like Tales of the Unexpected, which i still haven't come close to finishing despite owning it for years, it's the sort of show i'd like to dip into a bit then probably not watch any for months. That sort of thing. |
