I recently watched Chocky on youtube. I kind of forgot that 80s children's TV in the UK had no problems being disturbing.
Mind you, we also had Jim'll Fix It so a bit of horror wasn't the worst.
- Gordonjcp 3y agoThere was a *phenomenal* series called How To Be Cool in the mid-80s, written by Philip Pullman, about a rather disturbing group called The National Cool Board (a play on words from The National Coal Board), profoundly weird shit. Unfortunately it had Gary Glitter in it playing a fairly major character so unless someone dumps a ropey old VHS of it onto Youtube it's never going to be seen outside of Granada Television's deepest murkiest vaults.
- ndsipa_pomu 3y agoThere's a couple of follow on series, Chocky's Children and Chocky's Challenge.
