It's Friday Fright, here at The Dungeon! Here's a rare little
British TV movie written by the awesome Nigel (Quatermass) Kneale.
A research team from an electronics company move into an old Victorian house to start work on finding a new recording medium,
but, when a female team member witnesses a ghost, the team director decides to analyze the
apparition. He believes a psychic impression is trapped in a stone wall in the basement and decides to exorcise
it, with terrifying results! I've got a wild little sound clip from this movie for your approval, sooooo, you can push the
big red 'GO' button over by our missing wall stone,
NOW, Rufus The Gnat! It starts with some fun when one of the team members dresses up like an alien.
The group leader is
Peter Brock, played by Michael (TORTURE GAEDEN) Bryant, also there is the
only female member, Jill Greeley, played by pretty Jane (ALFIE) Asher.
Here they are going over the game plan and inspecting the basement where they discover the
wall stones. That's not a stone he's holding, it's a can of rations from WWII.
The locals are suspicious of the outsiders showing up at the supposedly haunted estate.
I personally wouldn't want to get on the bad side of the waitress there!
Well, the experiments start and strange things begin to happen to some of
the team members, which seem similar to the events that happened in QUATERMASS AND THE PIT.
I wanted to show this still because I'd really like to
have this ghost monitor in The Dungeon! A new special machine is loaned to the
project by the military, now they should start getting the
results they're looking for. Something has been released from the stones and seek out Jill!
The things are blobby like forms that seem overly aggressive,
and, are actually a group of aliens from space. They attack Jill and knock her off the stairs,
killing her! Later, when things have calmed down, Peter goes back to the basement only to be attacked and also killed!
We're back tomorrow for our Saturday the 13th posting!

The Library is the sole repository of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) Collection (1888-1980s) in the Western Hemisphere.
Numbering more than six thousand LPs, the collection contains a selection of the most important recordings of
current affairs and cultural radio programs made by the BBC (see Recorded Sound External Sites) during its existence.
Virtually every major twentieth-century political figure
is heard on these recordings. Although obviously primarily British
in scope, this collection contains programs on American topics and personalities as well.
First ladies Nancy Reagan (b. Pat Nixon (1912-1993), and Rosalynn Carter (b.
American women from varied walks of life who
are featured in broadcasts include singer
Mary Travers (b. Shirley MacLaine (b. 1934), evangelist Ruth Carter Stapleton (1929-1983),
Princess Grace of Monaco (1929-1982), politician Shirley
Chisholm (b. Microfiche and paper indexes to the collection offer name, subject
(e.g., "gynaecology," "abortion," and "marriage"), keyword, and
program title access. The program Woman's Hour, for
which there are dozens of entries in the index, often features
notable American women and addresses a wide range of topics pertaining to American women. Any entry with a cataloging number beginning with "LP" may be in the Library's collections.
Established during the Sudeten crisis in September 1938, the BBC
German Service played an important role in Chamberlain's appeasement
policy and warfare towards Nazi Germany. Yet the BBC's employment for official propaganda,
especially in peacetime, raised delicate issues of its independence from government control and of the objectivity and credibility
of its broadcasts. This paper discusses, first, the origins of the BBC German Service and its role within Chamberlain's policy.
Second, it analyses the relationship between the BBC and Whitehall.
Third, it traces the evolution and development of
the British propaganda strategy towards Germany and investigates how the concepts of ‘truthfulness’ and ‘objectivity’ were internally
understood and employed by the BBC and Whitehall in their propaganda campaign. Finally, the paper argues that Chamberlain's propaganda strategy towards Germany collapsed during the Allied campaign in Norway in April 1940 precisely
because it no longer conformed to its self-proclaimed principles of
‘truth’ and ‘objectivity’. As a result, the credibility of the BBC German Service suffered a significant, if ultimately temporary, setback.
