I used to love this as a child and it's now being repeated everyday on Sky Arts ( Freeview channel 11). Some of the episodes are still so good. I saw "Flypaper" yesterday which was fantastically creepy. It's on at the moment but each episode is on several times a day.

I remember watching these smears ago and some still stay with me. The one where the young girl is being stalked by a creepy old man, he follows her onto the bus and so she gets off a stop early .... not spoiling it but that one really got to me.

I also remember enjoying the one with Miriam Margolese. But some were a bit odd. I'll need to look for the on Sky.

Flypaper is on Sky Arts (Freeview 11) at 9.30 tomorrow morning. I saw The Umbrella Man too this week. It was good.

I vaguely remember the one where he makes his wife late, I want to watch them all again now.

I watched them all when I was on maternity leave. Some amazing actors , both before and after they were famous.

Loved this series when it was first on.
Husband making his wife late, leg of lamb, plants crying in pain, royal jelly, the crooked furniture buyer,man with a certain tattoo on his back. Brilliant

The Hitler one is good. Thought provoking.
