I am hoping that any of you can provide me with some answers! I have some rather strong memories of a few TV programs which noone else seems to remember and I am convinced I havent imagined them:
1) A children's TV series, I believe it was on BBC as it predates CITV by a few years. It involved the usual well-to-do children living in a large house during some unspecified iddylic time - could be Victorian, could be 1920s..even 1950s at a stretch - who have magic wishing rings. They put on a play but, lacking an audience, make one up of scarecrows and the like. One of the children says something along the lines of "If only the audience was real" with terrifying results. They come to life and start clapping slowly, rising from their chairs.
2) Same era and same sort of drama (Possibly same program!) where a ghost haunts an old mansion. They discover a soldier was bricked up in the wall, gramophone and all! I couldnt put an age on the uniform as history is not my strong point - we're talking roughly Sharpe-era. Red coat style british soldier.
3) A program where, in the intro sequence, you see a car crash. A child is adopted out and, once adult, tries to track down his real family
4) A comedy where everyone in the world has vanished, apart from the main characters. The intro showed scenes of people going about their business and then just vanishing!
5) A documentary about a boarding school where there are no rules or regulations. I remember bare-footed children smoking and drinking and doing whatever they pleased.
6) Did K9 ever fight Satanists in a graveyard?
Please help me!!! These things have been nagging me for years! There are many, many more but I shall see how this goes and then post the others.
I will be truly grateful!
Thanks
