The Mad Death

[ann22]

Anyone remember this? It was a mini series back in the early 80's about a rabies outbreak in Britain. I remember a fox having it at the start.. an old mad woman let a load of dogs loose from some kind of pound. Then people in hospital beds raving and being afraid of water (hydrophobia I think, an odd disease symptom) I thought it was great.

I remember it. UK Gold showed it a few years back. I should've recorded it, it's not on DVD.

There were plenty of programmes like that in the early 1980s, what with Threads, The Edge Of Darkness, The War Game eventally shown on TV & The Nightmare Man.

hmmm...

Haven't got a title for you but this rings bells with me also.

Was there a flood as well and people were stuck on their roofs?
