THE MAD DEATH (1983): The BBC's brilliant and deeply disturbing drama about a rabies outbreak in Scotland. Bearing in mind that I'd cross the road everytime I saw a stray dog (just in case), The Mad Death scared me so much that I didn't make it to the final episode.

It's Sunday afternoon - time for Worzel Gummidge! How about THE CROWMAN (1979), an episode which saw Worzel don his infamous Handsome Head and propose to a female scarecrow, who proceeds to beat him with a broom and dismember him. Folk horror fun for all the family!

Calling Mr Vein! KING OF THE CASTLE (1977), part of HTV's Unholy Trinity of scary kid's shows, along with Children of the Stones and Sky, fused Alice in Wonderland with Kafka. A troubled teen is knocked out in a lift accident and wakes up in a nightmare world populated by his anxieties...

TERRAHAWKS (1983) was salvaged from Thunderhawks, an anime show Gerry Anderson pitched to Japan. Anderson's shows were so popular there that Terrahawks was gifted its very own anime title sequence, and it's lovely!

Unlike the happy, roller-skating, all-American feel-good adverts for Pepsi and Coke, quintessential 80s soft drink QUATRO (1982) went for a dark, grungy, machine-smashing cyberpunk aesthetic, courtesy Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton (Max Headroom, the Accidents Will Happen video)

PLAY SAFE: KITES AND PLANES (1978) Part of the infamous PIF trilogy that included Jimmy and his frisbee. This one sees a poor lad fly his kite too close to an electricity pylon, resulting in a graphic pre-watershed electrocution airing between episodes of Magpie, How, and Clapperboard.

Patrons will also get an exclusive SHOW AND TELL video every month! The SFL library is vast and cavernous, and I'll be taking you through some of the best books, annuals, and comics, from cover to cover! I have such sights to show you... (3/5)

SEWING MACHINE (1973): A startling PIF, directed by the master of the form, John Krish, featuring the final minute of a little girl's life. It generated a flood of complaints; not because of the horrific elements, but because it featured a black child. That's more shocking than anything in the film.

The differences between SCIENCE NINJA TEAM GATCHAMAN (1972) and its child-friendly American version, BATTLE OF THE PLANETS (1978) are stark indeed. In this Gatchman scene, missing from BotP, team leader Ken gives a bad guy a good hiding. I counted eighteen punches. Eighteen!

Hell yeah. My game has a silent protagonist, so all their characterization has to come from other characters and narration. And you get to invent lots of little characters with fun little stories that live in your head!

Affordability is a scam?! Please. Prices aren’t magically dropping — that’s not how inflation works, and Trump knows it. Real affordability means higher wages so families can survive higher prices. That’s the part The Nodfather refuses to say out loud. #WeCantAffordTrump

Spurs coach Mitch Johnson, on Victor Wembanyama’s play in Game 1: “I thought his level of physicality and execution through physicality was tremendous. His rebounding, obviously, was off the charts. ... That’s 49 big minutes, and it was high level for a majority of those.”

Before someone says to “turn down the rhetoric,” show them this. Trump spent years calling people “vermin,” “garbage,” “enemy from within,” “communists,” “Marxists,” and “radical left thugs.”

Santana started pitching less than a year ago, after being unable to sign as a speedy SS. FB 89-90.

Watch the Orioles' first-base dugout here. Gunnar Henderson got out of there and onto the field FAST on Colton Cowser's walk-off 3-run home run. He was clearly amped up for his good friend.
