On Terror On The Tube, Joel, Peter, and Allyson pick, at random, a made-for-TV horror/suspense movie that aired sometime during the decades of the 1970s, 80s, or 90s.
In this episode we're joined by Huw Lloyd (check out more from Huw here) to talk about Ghostwatch from 1992.
Originally released on BBC1 on Saturday, October 31st, 1992, Ghostwatch stars Michael Parkinson, Sarah Greene, Mike Smith, Craig Charles, and Gillian Bevan.
The BBC gives over a whole evening to an "investigation into the supernatural". Four respected presenters and a camera crew attempt to discover the truth behind "The most haunted house in Britain", expecting a light-hearted scare or two, and probably the uncovering of a hoax.
They think they're in control of the situation. They think they're safe.
The viewers settle down and decide to watch "for a laugh". Ninety minutes later the BBC, and the country, was changed, and the consequences are still felt today.
