Another random thread. I can name loads of classics, but I will keep my list short: He-man Dungeons & Dragons Chocoblock (anyone remember that one?) And of course Transformers. So what were other peoples programmes of choice? |

Oh gosh yes. Read the book, and the follow up the Midnight Folk, both by John Masefield, simply brilliantly imaginative and evocative literature. I would love for there to be a modern film made of these.
